Wow! What an incredible property and house. We were a group of families with small kids, and it was heaven for them playing in the pool, on the dock, on the playground, and in the expansive yard. Lots of beautiful sunsets on the patio for the grown-ups too. We never had to leave. Can't recommend highly enough.
The house and property were even better than expected. While the house had plenty of room to allow everyone to fit comfortably and spread out, it also provided lots of spaces for us to gather together as a large group. We are a family of 15, including adults, teens, and children, and we came together for a weekend of quality time outdoors together, which was exactly what this property provided. The outdoor space was an absolute dream. We spent most daytime hours swimming in the pool, crabbing and fishing from the pier, and playing games on the property like with football ball and kickball.. We spend evenings around the fire pit and on the screened porch, playing games and just being together. The house was the perfect combination of classic character and modern comfort, but the location and water views were the best part of our stay. Doug was a fantastic host. He was responsive to questions and inquiries and provided some great suggestions to make our stay the best it could be. Check in and check out were a breeze. We highly recommend this property and will certainly return on our next visit to Cambridge!
The property was perfect for our family get together. We had a baby, toddler, preschooler, elementary and teens, moms, dads and grandparents. There was a place for everyone. Having a pack nâ play available would have been nice, but we procured one elsewhere. The property was large and felt very private, but Cambridge was just a quick drive.
Loved the house. Looked just like the pictures only nicer. We were a family of 11 and there was something for everyone young and old. Fishing off the dock was a big favorite. The pool house was especially fun filled in the evening with playing pool, cards, games, etc. The pool was big that everyone had their "own space" or played together! One thing the pool does not have a railing to get in or out, but not difficult. The air conditioner in some rooms was a little spotty. The outside screened porch was comfortable for early morning coffee...beautiful sunrises, and just gathering together. The host left soap and other nice touches in the rooms. Loved the place and hope to return someday.
I took my family on this vacation because it was large enough for all of my children, their spouses and grandchildren to spread out. There were multiple activities such as fishing, crabbing, swimming in the pool, kayaking, hiking and beach "treasurer hunts" to find things like sea glass, shells, etc. We really loved the dock and its illumination, the screened in porch area and the backyard area at night with the lights were very nice. Unfortunately, we only had one good day of weather. I would recommend that the owners supply more pans, pots, measuring tools and other cookware or inform future guests of what is available. The glasses, plates, bowls and utensils were very plentiful. The house and pool house require some updating with electrical outlets, lighting in the dining room, installing exhaust fans in bathrooms, and the HVAC system was hard to keep at a comfortable temperature in certain areas of the house. Other than that, it's an amazing piece of property with a ton of river frontage. The views and places to hike were just serene and gorgeous.
