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 bunk beds and comfortable seating area with games, books and more! Crib and rail guards, folding cot available by request. Our lovely owner managed home was renovated to include well equipped maple kitchen cabinets, granite countertops and oak hardwood floors on entire first and second floors. There is a private 20x13 deck with table and chairs overlooking a manicured flat grassy yard large enough for ball playing, croquet, bean bag toss etc. Stone wall with mature plantings provide privacy.

Relax in the bright and sunny living room located on the first floor with palladium ceiling which leads to the dining room and deck area.. The spacious outdoor shower encased with red cedar is classic for the cape! There are beach chairs, boggie boards, beach umbrella, coolers, and assorted games for your use. 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. The Weber gas grill is ready for barbecuing. Check in on Fridays to avoid heavy Cape Cod traffic typically seen more with Saturday changeovers. Check in: 3pm Check out: 11am. SHEETS/TOWEL services available for additional fee to cover cost of sending the linens out to be cleaned. You may also choose to utilize in house amenities and detergents to wash used linens and towels to avoid any additional fee.

Fall colors of Cape Cod

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.

Home away from home in convenient location!

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!!
