Owners Share Why I Love My Home: We love spending time in the garden - there are new varieties of flowers and grasses that are planted each year. It's like a living Yearbook! It's so quiet that you can sit on the patio and hear the birds chatter - my favorite is when hummingbirds or butterflies come to visit! The short walk to Hardings Beach makes it so easy to see sunsets and sunrises at a moments notice! Our hope is that you love The Rosa Rugosa as much as we do!

As a vacation rental there were too much “stuff”
Around everywhere.
The kitchen stuff was also too too much and very disorganized.

Family trip to Cape near ocean beach
The property played out nice for what we wanted. I do have to say that there was a "moth ball/Stale" smell when we arrived that was pretty strong. it did dissipate as the week went along. Though we could smell it every time we came back to house. Lots of personal items and antiques that made the house feel older than it probably is. We didn't cook but kitchen seemed fine. The gardens were beautiful as described and the walk to the ocean was roughly 10-12 minutes.
Charming location for a summer retreat on the Cape!
We were very impressed with our stay on this property. The house was tidy and clean, and we were pleasantly surprised it was larger than we thought. There are four different rooms where family members can sleep, although it is important to note that only two are truly private--the other two you have to walk through to get to the kitchen or bathroom. It has a 4-season porch that are kids loved hanging out in. The yard is fairly private and full of well-maintained gardens. True to the description, it is less than a mile to the local beach and lots to keep a family occupied nearby. We had brought a small fan, which was a life saver that helped me sleep at night. I wished the property had a welcome book that could remind you of check-out policies and provide more guidance on local activities and restaurants. Otherwise, we were all thrilled and would gladly stay there again.
We had a great stay at the property and it had everything we needed.
We loved the gardens, outdoor shower, beautiful antique pieces and all amenities. We cooked seafood while dancing and singing to the old school radio with all the tools provided and my 4 year old loved the hammock and outdoor shower.
