Dawn and Steve are great owners. The home was perfect for our family if 4 plus our in laws to enjoy the beaches, River access, fishing, the Skipper and all of the fun the cape has to offer. Location was perfect as were the Kayaks and paddle boards that owners allowed property to use. House sleeps 12 comfortably. Great size rooms and ACs that did their job of cooling the house down with the East Coast humidity. Backyard was great, washer and dryer came in handy, access to the Parker River. Our family will be back and again Dawn and Steve were great with responding with texts and allowing us to check in a little early and out a little later. Highly recommend this property. Thanks for a great week! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 This review was submitted before 2018 and can't be verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Diane H. Jul 28, 2015 #### July Vacation Our family rented this home - we were 7 adults & 2 kids (an almost 3 yr old & a 9 month old). The house is located in a very nice & quiet neighborhood. The house was clean & is very roomy, no one ever felt on top of each other. The upstairs bedrooms are very large, we had a pack & play in one of the rooms & there was still ample room to move around. The kitchen has everything you would need. The outside shower is large & private, very refreshing after a day on the beach. There is a tiki bar out back with a hammock, a bench, & 2 picnic tables. There is so much room inside & out. There are kayaks, paddle board & boat, a surrey bike for your use. There wasn't enough time to enjoy it all! Most important, the owners, Dawn & Steve, were a pleasure to work with. If we plan a vacation next year, we wouldn't hesitate to rent this home or anything else from Dawn & Steve. ##### Diane H. This review was submitted before 2018 and can't be verified. ### 4/10 Poor #### eclerkin@verizon.net C. Dec 7, 2015 #### Preview in person before renting I took this rental without previewing it. This is one of those listings that once you arrive, you immediately get the listing on the computer to see why you thought it would be something different. The house is across the street from the owners main house (river waterfront), and you walk across the street and through their yard to access a dock you share with them. Your rental does not have a summer water view. Maybe peeks in the winter between the river front homes. Pros: 4 good size BR's; small boat/kayak mooring; 1/2 mile walk to local ocean beach; surrey pedal bike is fun. Cons: House is old and dark; living areas are small; Lawn is small and in need of maintenance; owners across the street. Overall: Overpriced if you do not need a boat mooring. ##### eclerkin@verizon.net C. ### 2/10 Terrible #### Gerald p. Aug 21, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Parker River House Front Door and foot jamb were broke when we arrived. Four big black bags of garbage were in yard when we arrived. It was not our garbage Next the TV shut down in the middle of the Olympics'. Host fixed the TV. Next morning. the large flock of Crows spread the garbage all over the yard. Host picked up the garbage, but thenTV broke down again. Next the family was doing a puzzle water began flowing out of the laundry room. My son in law removed the laundry room doors in order to remove the washer and dryer. He removed a large amount of dirt lint from the washer drain with a coat hanger. Then the tv cable broke down for a fourth time. The cable company came and strung a new cable. On friday we were taking showers in preparation for departure and the toilet overflowed all over the bathroom floor. My son in law tried to open the toilet with a plunger and the water started flowing out of the laundry room again. We believe we deserve a rebate. If this is how VBRO does business you have lost a customer. Dr. Powers ##### Gerald p. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### John T.

The neighborhood is quiet and the area has good restaurants and other fun attractions such as Putt-Putt and an Inflatable Park. Everyone in my group enjoyed their stay! ##### Christina W.

It’s well furnished and clean. The house itself is dated, but it’s charming. The River activities are awesome, and we spent every day making use of the paddle boards and kayaks. The nearby beaches are nice and not too crowded. The house itself is older and could use some updates. The main floor is dark and could use either more light or just a coat of bright paint on the dark wood paneled walls. The kitchen is small but functional. I’d suggest bringing all the ingredients you need because, other than actual cookware and utensils, there was pretty much only salt and pepper and aluminum foil. Many other rentals have spices, oils, and some more food storage options. Overall, the house is nice, clean and spacious. You’re paying for the space and the fantastic location. Don’t come expecting a modern and updated rental, but a clean and functional home base great for an extended family. ##### Shelli F. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Mary F.

It slept a large number of people and we had 2 families staying here together. ##### Mary F. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary B. Jul 25, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location The house was very comfortable with plenty of sleeping options and several sitting areas. It was very private and we loved the dock area across the street. The beach was perfect, seemed private rather than public. ##### Mary B.

Jul 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean but dated This house was in an amazing location. Easy drive to Hyannis. The house itself was very clean, but very dated. Lots of spiders. We didn’t really use anything in the yard. We brought our own corn hole and set it up in the road because there wasn’t a lot of yard space. Also, the outdoor shower was not someplace I’d probably want to rinse off in. Owners were very nice and attentive. ##### Deanna R. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David E. Jun 24, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Early June stay The house was exactly as described. The owners were easy to communicate with and when there was a need to communicate with them, they responded quickly and helpfully. The limo bike and dock were great additions to the stay and added an extra element. I would stay there again in a heart beat. ##### David E. ### 8/10 Good #### Sari M. May 31, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Charming, comfortable home We stayed in this property for a long weekend for a multi-generational family getaway. The house was very comfortable with plenty of space for our group of seven. The kitchen is well equipped and the yard is lovely. We had an added bonus of watching the bunnies frolic in the yard. Unfortunately, we did not have good weather so did not take advantage of the water toys that come with this property. Our only complaint is that the heat was not working, so the house got quite cold (I am guessing we were the first renters of the season). The owner was very responsive and sent someone right away to address the problem. The only other note is that this property does not come with bed linens or towels, so you either have to bring your own, or order from one of the local companies (which is what we did since we flew in) for an extra cost. ##### Sari M. ### 8/10 Good #### Chrysta P. Oct 19, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 60 and Spectacular I loved the property and the access to the water toys. The house was comfortable and there was enough space for my entire family. It's often tough finding a place to accommodate three generations. My son and grands rode around the neighborhood on the 6 person bike and that was cool. The only suggestion I would offer is updating the beds on the first floor. They were not very comfortable. We hope to return next year in the summer when we can take full advantage of the water. ##### Chrysta P.
