Great house with lots of space. Nice walk to the beach thru quiet neighborhood. My family had three little guys 1/1/2 and we had a great time at Mayflower. Right around the corner from Chapins too! Ken and Debi were very hospitable and left some of the most delicious cookies we’ve ever had.

My siblings and I -from the west coast and the east coast- and our spouses enjoyed a family vacation at this property. Len was a great communicator and very quick to answer all my questions. The house is lovely and we also enjoyed the deck out back. It’s an easy walk to Mayflower Beach through a nice quiet neighborhood. Awesome location!! We have been coming to the Cape for decades and this was one of our favorite rentals!!!I highly recommend this home.

Nice home, great location

We stayed in len’s home for a week with 4 adults and 3 young kids. There was plenty of room for us all. The yard has a great front yard/ porch and back deck for hanging outside. Additionally the beach is an easy 10-minute walk from the house. We would love to stay here again.

Perfect summer getaway

We had a great experience that started with the lovely gifts from Len for both adults and kids. The neighborhood was perfect for the kids to ride their bikes or just play in the front yard. We enjoyed riding our bikes to the beach each day and coming back to a clean cool house.

Summer vacation on Cape Cod

Great property. Owner lives right across the street but is pretty much invisible unless you need him for something. Two and a halve baths is a definite plus, especially in the morning when everyone is trying to get ready for the day. Washer and dryer are easy to use as is the outdoor gas grill. This is definitely a five star property.

Very convenient house location but 2 concerns not in listing

Overall the house is very convenient to the beach. And it's in excellent shape. It has 5 beach chairs but no beach toys which was surprising, but I don't hold that against the owner in my rating. FYI: owner lives across the street.2 concerns I had and alerted owner before I signed 2nd rental agreement:- the listing did NOT list no linens are included. I sent screenshots to owner to show that. He didn't realize when he checks a box saying no linens doesn't mean no linens are listed. I found out when I needed to sign the 2nd rental agreement. Owner needs to write it in listing.- requires a separate lease to be signed outside of VRBO. Probably a VRBO terms of service violation. I don't like that.Otherwise, it's a very convenient and good condition house and owner is nice.

mayflower vacation house

I have used VRBO several times now and this is the best house that I have rented. You absolutely will love this house. It is good sized, modern, and well equipped. The host, Len, could not have been nicer or more accommodating. Moreover, Mayflower is the best beach on the Cape, especially for little kids. I also managed 3 rounds of golf at 3 different nearby great courses. Five star stay

Great house, nice walk to the beach

Nice house plan, kitchen is well set up to cook (which we do). Outside Grill was new, and the deck was really pleasant to sit on. A note about the timing of our stay — there was a big storm and the power was knocked out for like 10 hours. We were able to walk to Chapin’s Bayside (yum!) for lunch, and the owner of the house was very responsive - getting us candles and a flashlight. He also sent over a neighbor to ensure we were ok. Great job, Len!

Our family and friends had an excellent vacation stay at the house. It was plenty big enough for all of us, and the location and proximity to one of the best beaches on all of the Cape makes this rental an easy decision to rebook.

Family reunion in Dennis

We had a lovely time staying in this large, well equipped house for a week with our extended family. Other than a bit of mustiness in the basement the house was just as it is described in the listing. The location is absolutely perfect, walking distance to Mayflower Beach and with in minutes to grocery stores, galleries, and the art museum.

Great beach house in Dennis!!!

We really enjoyed our stay in this very comfortable home in Dennis. Len and his wife were great hosts but not intrusive at all. They were available if needed and left a welcome basket with handmade Italian cookies and wine. The house was spacious enough our group of 2 families (4 adults and 4 children). The house was equipped with a very nice kitchen with high-end appliances and all of the kitchen utensils one would expect. There is a large TV in the family room and a great finished basement with another TV, as well as ping pong and pool tables. The wifi was reliable and fast enough to have multiple devices streaming at times for the kids. Bedrooms are very comfortable and spacious. One bedroom on the second floor is at the top of the stairs without a door (loft style), but this was fine for our kids. The house is a 10 minute walk to Mayflower beach which is one of the BEST beaches for kids on the Cape and certainly the highlight of the trip! The neighborhood is quite, perfect for sitting on the relaxing front porch, or going for a run or walk on the nearby streets. There is easy access to nearby restaurants, an ice cream shop, grocery stores, and Peterson's fish market which is one of our favorite places to pick up food for dinner. Overall, the house is perfect for a fun and comfortable Cape Cod vacation!

This is the house to rent for a family vacation!!

We were an extended family of 6 adults and two children under 4. This house lends itself so easily to a great number. The house is amazing with 4 large bedrooms so little ones can go to sleep away from noise. It is immaculate and you just need to drop your stuff and head to Mayflower Beach! It is a very short walk down the street. We had a pizza party one night and watched the sun set over the ocean. I can not say enough about the owners who are so kind and helpful. We had a perfect Cape vacation!!

Lovely house in a great location

We loved our stay, this house is a gem. It truly is a 'house', has great home feel, clean, comfortable, have all amenities a vacationer might need. Cute front porch for having morning coffee, and well-maintained yard, our toddlers loved playing and running there. The location couldn't be better, with Mayflower Beach (which is a amazing!) within 5 min by bicycles, can't comment on the walking distance. Special thanks to the owner, Len, who was incredibly accommodating and welcoming. There is a good amount of stores, ice cream shops, restaurants nearby, and within reasonable driving distance. Would love to go back!! Best, ~ Irina

Annual summer vacation with family

My husband and I spend every summer on cape cod with our three grown children and grandchildren. We’ve stayed in the Dennis area for the past 10 years. This year instead of using a local realtor, we tried VRBO. We booked this house and could not have been happier. The house was beautiful, well equipped and less than a mile walk to the beach. There was plenty of space for all three families. My children commented that we really upped our game for a house this year. Len and his wife live right across the street, which was terrific. They were easily accessible if we had any questions but not intrusive at all. I would highly recommend this property. We hope it’s available next year for our Cape vacation! Rose

We loved it!

We really enjoyed our week at the house. It is the perfect size for 2 families. Everyone had their own space. The basement was great for the kids. It was about an 8 minute walk to Mayflower beach which is absolutely beautiful. The best time is late afternoon/early evening to watch the sunset. The kitchen is fully stocked with all cooking things you need so we cooked/grilled every day. We will definitely be coming back!

Über den Gastgeber

Zu Gast bei Len Holt

In 2001 we built this house for our family and have enjoyed it so much that we built a new house nearby which is why this house is available for our guests to enjoy. The Holt Realty Group, LLC is a private family owned and operated business which builds, owns and rents luxury homes in the Boston Suburbs since 1985. Although many of our properties are located in the Boston Suburbs , we find ourselves spending more and more time in Cape Cod. We hope that you enjoy this house as much as we have over the years!

Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft

Our house is located in a quiet family friendly neighborhood. Although close enough to the Mayflower Beach to walk (and hear it), it's far enough away that we don't have a constant flow of cars passing by our house. The Town of Dennis prohibits parking on the streets of our neighborhood to prevent beach parking by all the people who can’t get into the beach parking lot. Fortunately our guests don’t have to worry about the beach parking lot because it’s a short walk to the beach. In the alternative, you could choose to use the beach drop off area outside the parking lot. We provide four off street parking spaces in our driveway for the exclusive use of our guests.

Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig

May Flower Beach is one of THE BEST family friendly beaches on Cape Cod and is one of a very few beaches on the east coast where the sun sets over the water. At low tide the beach is enormous with lots of room for whatever you want to do. The unique benefit of Louis Ave is that it is within a short walk to the beach. (You will find that the Beach Parking lot fills up very quickly all throughout the summer.)

Question: What made us fall in love with our home?
Answer: For many years the only Cape Cod we knew was Rt 28, including all the hotels along Hyannis and the constant traffic jam during the summer months. Over 20 years ago we were invited by friends to visit Mayflower Beach and the first time we stepped over the dunes and on to the beach we instantly knew that we had found "old cape cod". For several years we rented in the neighborhood before we were fortunate to find a piece of land where we built our first house, a custom built home with an open first floor plan before open floor plans were in vogue. Whether we are sitting on the front porch, the back deck or just inside the house there is something about being in Cape Cod that is just relaxing. We liked it so much that we built a second home across the street.
