Impeccable Cape Cod Oceanfront Home Overlooking Swami's Beach.

Impeccable Cape Cod Oceanfront Home Overlooking Swami's Beach.

10/10 Excellent
"Our family of 7 had a great vacation at this cliffside home. The house is wonderfully located for a private restful visit while close to beach, restaurants (get the Cardiff Crack) and shops so driving was minimal. The closest beach is accessed by steep stairs but easier to access beaches are close by. The bedrooms are large and comfortable and the kitchen is equipped with everything necessary to eat and cook if you choose. We and our 2 dogs spent most of our home time on the fabulous deck watching surfers, dolphins, swimmers and the waves. The owner is very responsive and informative."
