Great stay & perfect location!

Happy Beach is the perfect house and location for a family with young kids. We had plenty of space and the beach was a super easy walk. House was clean and had all necessary amenities for a beach vacation.

Great beach house

We had a great time staying in Harwichport and visiting with our family. The walk to the beach was short and it was nice to take daily walks there. Looking forward to staying longer next time. House had all the amenities of home.

Family weekend

We enjoyed our family vacation at this quiet lovely home. The welcome book provided information about the amenities and private beach. Also enjoyed the roof deck soaking up the sun. The home was well equipped inside and out with everything they advertised and more. We are very likely to rent this property again.

Great house and location with east fixes needed

Came into town for a fall wedding and had a wonderful stay. Great home on a beautiful street a block from the beach. Few minor issues: 1. there are 3 auto drip coffee machines but no carafe for any of them . We had to finagle and use a pot, not fun. This was mentioned in prior reviews and has not been resolved. 2. Wifi signal very poor. Could not even stream a show without it cutting out multiple times. 3. Kitchen could be stocked better with Tupperware and more pans but this was not a huge deal. Overall great stay and would still come back.

Fabulous house

Pictures don’t do this house justice. The rooms are all quite large and comfy. The kitchen is beautiful, but could use a little brighter lighting. The quick walk to the private beach really makes the location exceptionally. If I’m ever back at the Cape we would rent again.

Great place for a family trip

The private access beach was perfect and very close. The sunroom was far enough away from the bedrooms so adults could talk while kids slept. Property was well maintained and very clean.

Nicely updated and great location

We were very happy with the location of the home. It was quite literally a 3 minute walk to a beautiful beach. The home itself is updated well and the kitchen is fairly well appointed with cooking equipment. Many of the pots and pans were either new or like new. The a/c system was wonderful and it cooled the house off very nicely. The beds and linens were in excellent condition and we had no issues with any of the appliances.

Good, Private & Peaceful

Enjoyed the private road. If you go you will need your own seasoning, saran wrap, foil, cooking spray, paper towels, kleenex and trash bags....and possibly toilet paper. there were two extra rolls for our group of 5.

A bit chilly

The house and it’s location are great! The heat was broken and the water was turned off. Once we were able to get ahold of a property manager he came out and got the water on but no heat in November was not good. He bought 3 space heaters for us to use, which helped but not ideal.

Nice winter getaway

This house was lovely for a two-night winter getaway. The only problem was not enough hot water to take a hot shower. I assume that can be remedied so rated the house a 5 because otherwise it’s just what we were looking for.

Very Nice Home. Great Location.

Very nice home. Easy walk to nice private beach. Living room TV was not hooked up to cable service, or even plugged in. The property manager was quick to remedy the situation by providing a Smart TV which allowed us to access Netflix and other apps. Impressed with the quick response. On the downside, there were some issues previously reported by other reviewers) that need attention. Several of the light sitches appear to have no function and the ceiling lights over the living room window work off the wall switch bur are plugged in to the wall outlet. One inconvenience was the small shower in the master bath. A very small corner shower hwas installed even though there was room to install a larger shower.
