"This was a perfect location; right on Potter's pond in E Matunuck, with a beautiful view of the area to see sunsets and sunrises. We woke up each morning to see egrets and herons in the wetlands right outside our house. The house had a nice deck with good seating for everyone; and the kitchen was fully stocked with a good working grill. The owners were incredibly responsive to our every need and the house was very clean. They even got us kayaks - which we loved having. There is a launch right next to the house and we kayaked every day. The place also is within walking distance to the beach and they provided us with a wagon to drag our stuff. People should know the place does have a spiral staircase (which could be an issue for small children) but it also has outside stairs to the main part of the house."
