We were having a very relaxing vacation. I loved the sunrise and the sunset, depending on in which room I was staying. We were walking a lot on different areas, shopping is also very close nearby. It was a perfect house for the two student daughters and me

Island Getaway

My four friends and I were very lucky we stumbled upon the Islander. Nestled away from the crowds, the location provided us with access to the bay just steps down the road and the nature of Monomoscoy Island. Really lovely, peaceful morning walks, followed by the great opportunity to explore the Cape. We spent a day in Provincetown, had a great visit to the national seashore, and went into different towns. We had a few questions and the hosts were immediately responsive and helpful. A couple things in the house could use a refresh/refill, but we went out to eat most nights so didn’t use the kitchen very much. A great visit and taste of East Coast Summer thanks to the Islander!

A relaxing getaway

This is a perfect spot for a late summer getaway. The immediate area is quiet but not far from beaches and shopping. The property and very clean and well-maintained, and contained everything we needed. The fire pit on the front porch was a very welcome plus in the evenings. Our questions were answered quickly by the owner. We would definitely consider returning.

Perfect!

I was travelling with my 3 sisters from Canada heading towards Martha's Vineyard for a sister's reunion. We all appreciated the cleanliness and the attention to detail. The space was well appointed. The fridge ice maker did not work well so having some ice cube trays would have been helpful. I highly recommend The Islander.

A lovely and comfortable home from which to explore Mashpee and the Cape. The porch fire table is such a bonus at night. We really enjoyed drinking coffee on the porch in the morning and listening to the orchestra of bird life. The neighborhood is quiet and very pretty. Very comfortable beds and furniture. Well stocked kitchen. Owner is very attentive and responsive.

Time with our Grandkids

The property was very nice, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The host and cohost were both great, we arrived a little early and they let us check in instead of making us wait. The only disappointment was the private beach at the end of the road. There were badly broken stairs that were dangerous to use and no ‘beach’ to speak of… you couldn’t put down a blanket or a chair for example. We had a different expectation based on the description of the property.

Little slice of Heaven

We were welcomed into this beautiful home and discovered it to be just as pictured. Home smelled and looked cleaned, beds were comfy. Plenty of bath and beach towels, detergent for a quick load of laundry, toiletries, the coffee also was a nice to have for our short stay. Truly all the essentials that we didnt have to worry about to make for an easy and comfortable family vacation. The home is surrounded by beautiful water ways just steps from the home. Enough to enjoy a beautiful walk, dipping our feet in and our boys to throw out a line and do a little fishing. The home had all the kitchen essentials to cook family meals, a nice large sectional for a family movie night for us to unwind from a day exploring the Cape. Grocery stores, shopping and dining near by! We could not have asked for a better landing pad while on the Cape! Thank you Matt for your hospitality and letting us call this home for a few days!
