Charming Classic Cape Home Bordering Bike Trail-Family Friendly In Harwich
Welcome to “Penobscot Bliss”
Come to Harwich and stay at our pristine cape style home in a safe, quiet neighborhood on a seven home cul-de-sac abutting the Cape Cod Rail Trail (CCRT). It is close to all amenities that the Cape has to offer including short walk to Hinckley and Long ponds from the CCRT. The Harwich beaches are a mere 3 mile drive! Red River beach with its warm waters of Nantucket Sound, Bank Street and Pleasant Street beaches are some of our favorites! The location is perfect for those early mornings or evening walks any time of the year! This tastefully decorated property with nautical/ beach theme has 3 bedrooms all with king beds, 3 full baths, outdoor shower and a master suite with a Jacuzzi tub. Lower level has modular sofa, and comfortable seating area with games, books and more! Crib and rail guards, folding cot available by request.

Amenities include central air plus ductless units in the basement and MBR, wireless high speed internet (WIFI), smart TV, blu-ray, cable and all the modern conveniences of home.

Amazing, huge, beautiful house right next to bike path through the back yard. This isn’t a tiny cottage. It didn’t feel like a vacation home. It’s a lovely place and the hosts were awesome!
Lovely home that was comfortable for whole family and pets. Host was great in sending information before our arrival with specific instructions for the use of the property which alleviated any questions we might have had. Appreciated the use of the beach chairs, games, etc. which allowed us to not have to pack all of that as we traveled some distance. Location was central to many areas we explored. Would visit again. Thank you.
Great location with direct access to Cape Cod Rail Trail, very close to kettle ponds and ocean-side beach, private, large, clean, well-appointed and comfortable home!
We were thrilled with the property. It checked all the boxes. It was very clean and had all the necessities for a 6 day stay. The hosts were very helpful and great to work with. Would book again any time we visit the Cape. 5 stars!!!!! We would hiighly recommend.
Beautiful well kept home in a quiet neighborhood. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and easy access to the Cape Cod Rail Trail. Wonderful hosts. Highly recommend this property.
Beautiful home, exactly what we needed for 5 adults and grandson. Very clean, excellent amenities, great location in center of the Cape. Hadn’t visited the Cape for over a decade, this home played a key part in making this a fantastic family get together.
We have stayed here numerous times in the past. Have always enjoyed it. The owner is very easy to work with, And would recommend it highly for a nice quiet peaceful get away
This was our second time staying here and it was just as good as the first stay. Perfect location-mid cape, right on the rail trail, clean and comfortable rental and the owner, Elaine is great to work with. Next time we vacation on the cape we will definitely stay here again.
Once again , an excellent time awesome weather , excellent time
Very relaxing get away. We always enjoy all the amenities of the house ,especially the Cape Cod rail trail located just out the back door,very convenient.
The fine restaurants all around the area, and just the all around relaxing atmosphere at the beach. Look forward to coming back..
This was our first time staying in the Cape as a family, and this spacious home was perfect for our needs. The property description was accurate and the host was a great communicator throughout the whole process. We loved the comfortable beds and clean bathrooms and the convenient access to the bike trail. We visited several towns and beaches and found this home in Harwich to be a short drive from everything. Would definitely choose to stay here again!!
We had a grezt time. 3rd time back to this home from Michigan. Located right on the CC bike trail. Easy drive to anywhere. Home is great and supplied. We will see you next year!
Elaine is so accommodating and responsive- a pleasure to deal with. I’ve stayed at many a vrbo site and this was the best one! House is spacious, clean and didn’t even lose power when Tropical Storm Lee visited!
We would love to come again next year. September on the Cape is great!
The home was exactly as described and it was more cozy and comfortable than we could have hoped for. It was great after breakfast to be able to walk a paved trail directly behind the property thru the forest with the trees changing to brilliant colors of fall. The location to grocery stores, restaurants was also very convenient and we look forward to coming back to cape cod and definitely would want to stay here again.
For our first visit to Cape Cod, we had a wonderful experience overall. The home was comfortable, spacious and we had everything we needed. Elaine was easy to communicate with and accessible. We will absolutely be returning for another stay.
This was our return visit to this home. It is spacious and clean with all you need for a great cape vacation. Elaine is a great communicator and made everything simple. We traveled with our dog and it is great for him too. I highly recommend!
Visited Cape Cod last week of August in Penobscot Bliss. It was a vacation where we wanted to spend some quality time together with the family. Cape Cod is so perfect for family vacation with variety of activities available for families.
Penobscot Bliss was great. We found it neat and clean and comfortable with all the required amenities needed for a nice family vacation. We used the first floor bedroom and the couple bedrooms upstairs and they are in great condition. Basement had the washer and dryer and we used it few times. Basement also has bunk beds for the kids but we didn’t use it. All the showers in both floors were nicely maintained. Deck, backyard and front yard were great to spend time in between the trips to surrounding towns like Brewster and Dennis. Harwich is a nice town itself with many nice beaches, hiking trails, eateries and restaurants. The backyard from this house directly connects to the bike trail which is great for biking and hiking. Flowering shrubs are nicely placed surrounding the yard. Loved the outdoor shower which is ideal to wash while coming back from the beach. The vacation house made our vacation in cape a memorable one.
This home was exactly as described and did not disappoint. Lots of room, great backyard and everything was in pristine condition. Loved that it was right on the Cape Cod Rail Trail for easy rides. Owners are very attentive in ensuring a wonderful experience. Would absolutely recommend this property and hope we have the opportunity to stay again!
The house is as described, with a very well stocked kitchen, including a Keurig, and regular drip coffee maker, nice outside deck, comfortable bedrooms. Beach chairs and umbrella are available, and a cooler for beach visits. Great mid-cape location makes for easy access to all areas of the cape. Our host answered all of our questions, and gave us restaurant recommendations , and the check in process was seamless .
My family and I had a lovely stay at 11 Penobscot Way. The location was excellent — centrally located with easy access to everything we needed. The home was comfortable, and the kitchen table created the perfect setting for a fun family game night. We especially enjoyed walks along the nearby bike path, with the conservation trust area just about a quarter mile down the trail. Elaine was very responsive, helpful, and always available when needed.
