Centrally located and cozy

Nice place to stay in cozy neighborhood. Centrally located making it easy to drive to other parts of the Cape.

Yarmouth Family Trip

The location of the property was great. Right off route 28 made it accessible to get around and within walking distance of restaurants, ice cream, and supermarket. Plenty of space for big families.

Wonderful property

We had a wonderful stay in Yarmouth at Owls Bird Nest. We had a wedding in the area and spent two nights at the property. It was very roomie and a great space to vacation.

Great house and location

We had a really nice stay at this place. The location is great with water park, restaurants, mini golf and much more within 10-15 minutes driving distance. The house was well kept, check in process was smooth and we had all the help and quick responses from property manager. We had a lovely time. Thank you

Great Getaway

We had a great time at Ocean Bird Nest. The house was in a great location and is exactly as described with the pictures as in the VRBO site. It was very clean with plenty of space and items needed.

Nice house & location

We stayed here for a week in September and had a great trip. The house was very clean and located in a great central location on the Cape for easy exploring in all directions. The house had everything we needed, although we did have a couple suggestions ….. the bathtub/shower floors were quite slippery and there were no tub mats available to make it safer, plus nothing to hold onto. The bathroom also had only one towel rack (for 4 people). Otherwise, we loved our stay!

Cute little Cape

This house was clean and well stocked with linens, towels and dishes. Everything you needed was available, even a washing machine and dryer, coffee maker, dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator, toaster and toaster oven. The smart TV allowed us to log into our own account and have great TV options. The yard was a good size with friendly rabbits that came to visit and ate the carrots we tossed them 😊. The internet connection was also very good. There were bikes but the ones with comfortable seats had either a popped tire or the chain fell off when you rode it. The neighborhood would have been good to ride in but instead we took walks around the block. The air conditioning was window units and quite loud. My family liked falling asleep to the din but I resorted to ear plugs. Everyone got a solid night’s sleep each day. Overall a good location. And we enjoyed our visit to the cape.

Nice home with some (minor) shortcomings

We had a very nice stay in this modern looking. comfortable cottage with lots of space in the living as well as the bedrooms. The location is great; very central on the Cape. Unfortunately the dining table can only seat 6 (little small for cottage that sleeps 8) and the backyard is not well maintained. Other than that it is a great cottage. Be aware that you have to pay service fees to both VRBO and VACASA when you book through VRBO.

Fall colors

Loved the location for getting to both ends of Cape Cod easily. The house was a great floor plan for 4 couples. Only complaint is not enough comfortable seating in the living room area for a house that can sleep so many. We had one cold, very rainy day to hang out there, but there just weren’t enough places for everyone to sit.

Wonderful Week in South Yarmouth!

The house was modern, updated, clean and full of surprises! Close to everything …food, entertainment and beaches in both directions. We had a hot wonderful week and we’re so sad to leave :(

Time away

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental was in very good shape and worked out well for our gathering. The kitchen was good. Add directions for the tv. Though some suggestions are here: Empty the trash barrel for new guests (it was full), check the washer - very noisy - maybe a belt problem. We only used it to start the towels washing on the checkout day. The kitchen needs organizing better and needs more glasses, mugs. The rug in the dining room has a curled up corner that is dangerous and needs repair. The top of the stairs should have a railing for safety. Had to call Turnkey for assistance with wifi.

Nice and very "open" rental. Convenient location. Open floor plan on first floor is very nice and perfect for a vacationing family.

The house was perfect for our stay!

The house was the perfect size with more than enough room for 3 adults and 2 teens. Everyone had their own space. Place was clean and fully equipped. Super private backyard and hardly any street noise. Our only negative was the washing machine. When running any cycle, it would make this ungodly sort of grinding sound. We quickly learned to throw a load in when we went out so we didn't have to listen to it! We would stay here again for sure.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was ideal- close to shops, good restaurants, and nice beaches. Neighborhood was nice for walking. House was fairly clean. Linens were not hotel quality as stated. Beach chairs were provided but broken. Luckily, we brought our own. We had problems upon arrival with electricity out in half of the house, and the refrigerator was not working. Service people were friendly, but we did spend our first and seconds days and night on the phone trying for resolution. We had a party of 8 and used all 4 bedrooms, however, only 3 bedrooms have AC units. After check out we continued to contact turn key for reimbursement. Unfortunately, we spent a lot of our vacation time on the phone with turn key. As of now, we are still waiting for restitution, though we were assured on our last day we would hear back within 48 hours.
