281 Robbins Hill Rd., Brewster

The house is well located on the bay where tides flood the beach during the high then role out to the horizon where you can take a long walk amongst the oyster farms and long stretches of compacted sand. Great for toddlers to explore the minnows and sea life which we had two of. The house worked well for the sunny and rainy days with the pool table, games and large format.

We were so lucky to find this rental. It had everything we needed for a great week at the Cape. The house and kitchen were very clean and pictures online are accurate except the master bedroom TV has been upgraded since the pictures were taken. The house is within 5 minutes walking distance from two bay beaches so we easily could walk down. The sunsets were beautiful! Owners were very responsive and even gave restaurant recommendations. Cleaning requirements were not overly cumbersome like some have said. Simple vacuuming or sweeping to get the sand up, trash removal, and one load of laundry for bath mats and kitchen towels. House even had trash bags, laundry soap, dish detergent, hand soap, sponges, and some paper towels when we arrived. Very impressed!

Beautiful sunsets, house still needs some decorating upgrades

Plenty of space and nicely appointed.

This house was the perfect place for us to treat our two daughters, their spouses and the new grandson to a trip to Cape Cod! Lots of space for all to spread out. The deck gave us a great view of the ocean and we could watch the "flats of Brewster" exposed each day and the sunsets were spectacular. Very short walk to the beach, which was convenient for the little one's nap time. The guys loved fishing the flats! This was our first time on the "Quiet" side of the Cape and can't wait to do it again.

The house only has one Internet smart TV though, which was hard for three families to share. Could use a couple of smart TV's in the bedrooms downstairs.

Note: A rule of departure is to vacuum the house prior to leaving ....
( it's a big house) made us wonder what the cleaning deposit is for. We did it, but never had to in any other rental. Made the last night less relaxing.

We loved every minute of our stay, with the beautiful views, neighborhood, and access to the bayside beaches that we love so much. There was also easy and safe access to running trails. The homeowners were kind and extremely helpful in wanting us to have an excellent experience. We were so fortunate with the weather to have breezes through those amazing windows and open doors and never needed the AC. We loved our stay.

The location on 281 Robbins Hill Rd is incredible. The proximity to three public beaches is a total plus. The view from the house and especially the deck is inspirational. The kitchen and living spaces are spacious and family friendly. The furniture is subpar and the kitchen needs to be re supplied with modern pots, pans and utensils. Teflon pots are a real negative. The living room furniture is uncomfortable and too low for older members of the family. I have never stayed at a rental that requires cleaning bath mats, pot holders, etc....and that requires a thorough vacuuming. What was the cleaning fee necessary for ?
The bottom line is that this house is in a special place with very special views.

Great house for a family (families). Great location. Loved the deck with a great review of the water. Had dinner on the deck every night. Downstairs bathroom was not great. Could use an upgrade. Owner very responsive to questions or issues.

This home is unique on the Cape as it can fit two families easily and has a great view of the ocean and is a short walk to the beach. And it has A/C which is needed more these day.

We enjoyed our week. The beginning of the week was a bit cooler and windy from remnants of hurricanes, But the end of the week was beautiful.
The location of the house is great as is the view of the ocean !! A very short walk to the beach! That in itself makes the rental great.
The house itself needs updates. The bathrooms are in rough shape, few places to hang towels. One tiny shelf for toiletries. And no fan in the upstairs bathroom. The furniture is very uncomfortable as are the beds. The kitchen is updated and spacious. Pots and pans definitely need to be updated(The Teflon pans need to go). The beach chairs are old and rusty.
We found it very frustrating to basically have to clean the entire house before leaving considering a $200 cleaning fee was charged. We have stayed in many rentals and have never had to wasH kitchen towels and bath mats before leaving. How do we know that they were washed by the last tenants? We have always been sure that our rentals were left neat, but the requests of the rental company were a bit ridiculous.
Also frustrating that we couldn’t find any previous reviews.

This house had everything you could possibly think of! The owner was so easy to work with and very hospitable. Loved the pool table.... Super clean and fully stocked with everything you could think of. Can't wait to go back!

Beautiful home, had everything we needed. Owner was very attentive and helpful.
