We had a fantastic stay - everything was great, from easy check-in, communication, cleanliness, to being as-described and a great layout for our group of 4 adults and 3 kids. The backyard space was a family favorite place to gather and enjoy time together at the large picnic table and fire pit area. It was also wonderful to have such great air conditioning during a hot week and we enjoyed the availability of having the bikes to use. Overall an excellent place!

A Wonderful Family Vacation

My two sons, my daughter-in-law, my wife, and I, and a dog decided a year ago to vacation together on Cape Cod this summer. After searching for a property listing, we settled on this cottage. It was everything we had hoped it would be. There is plenty of space, including an outdoor sitting area. It was clean and ready for us when we arrived. There was great communication between the owner and myself during the visit. It is close to several beaches and on a street without any traffic. I would give it my highest recommendation and would not hesitate to stay there again in the coming years.

Just perfect for our family

The space is cute with the upstairs loft just right for our teen sisters (stairs would be too steep for older adults). Very well stocked kitchen. Both indoor and outdoor showers which was welcome after our beach days. And convenient to beaches, restaurants and markets.

Quality Time with Family at the Best Place

This stay at Starfish Cottage was fantastic! Easy check in process and the most thorough. I didn’t have a ton of questions and Aruna was extremely helpful. When we did have some troubles with the fire pit, Aruna answered immediately and then sent her husband over early the next day to fix it. We were so impressed! The location was amazing. Easy walk to 3 different beaches. We went to Inman St mostly though and it was small, not crowded, and clean water/sand. Aruna also has beach chairs, bikes, wagon for beach equipment, noodles, etc. The AC was A+ during this hot time as well. We forgot the house only had a charcoal grill but we figured it out and it was a learning moment with the family! lol Mosquitos are kicking in this area so make sure to use the bug spray the host provides :) Most importantly: I brought my 6 month old puppy with us. We brought our own couch covers, bed, etc., and she thrived in the house AND lovely backyard. However, just a reminder that it’s not completely fenced in and there’s plenty of bunnies around….so tie your pup up on a long leash to the picnic table and you should be fine lol There is a tiny home basically 5 steps from the fire pit but we rarely saw the guests in there and it wasn’t a bother at all :) Just a reminder that this is a beach cottage and not a modern mansion. There will be dust/sand and the decor matches the beach vibes! We loved it here and will definitely come back :)

Great house, location, and owner

We had a great time at this house, even though it was the off-season (March) with cold/windy/rainy weather. We cooked, played games, walked, hiked, and rode the bikes. The house is an easy/short walk to the beach and into town. An easy two miles up the street is the Cape Cod Rail Trail. We were three, but the house easily accommodates a family of five with two bedrooms on the first floor and two twin beds in the attic bedroom.

Great week at Starfish Cottage

The Cottage had all the accommodations needed for our vacation on the Cape. Plenty of room in the house for the five adults and two young kids, well stocked with the everyday necessities. Close to the beaches, restaurants, shops and of course ice cream. Backyard well furnished with chairs, fire pit, hammock and outdoor shower. Quiet area to spend a relaxing week.

We had a blast at Starfish cottage! Two couples and two kids (ages 9 & 12) who absolutely loved sleeping upstairs in the loft. This place is fully stocked for all your beach vacation needs. Everything comes as advertised and the location is walking distance to anything you’d need in Dennis Port. The outdoor shower make for a stellar touch as well.

Relaxing at Starfish Cottage

My family had a wonderful, relaxing vacation at Starfish Cottage. We enjoyed excursions either walking to the beach or riding on the bikes provided for our pleasure. The weather was perfect allowing us to take advantage of the fire pit and hammock in the backyard. The oversized picnic table was was a great place to enjoy food, family and long conversations into the night. We all had a fantastic time and hopefully we can return soon. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. ❤️
