Beautiful Waterfront-Relaxin' on the River!

Relax in this rambling Swan River retreat while the tides go in and out. Relish the multiple window views of river and marsh. Fish, sunbathe, or launch your kayak from the 60-foot private dock. Identify wildlife in its natural habitat - hawks, seabirds, and smaller birds that alight on the deck to feed.

Enjoy every amenity in this fully renovated ranch decorated in nautical style with wood laminate flooring throughout. Lounge in the spacious living room/kitchen below the vaulted ceiling. Settle in the family room to build a puzzle, read, or watch TV. Escape to the master suite with queen-size bed, two-person jacuzzi, shower bath, TV, and deck overlooking the river. One guest bedroom has queen-size bed, the other twin bunk beds, and guest bath has full tub. A fully enclosed outdoor shower offers bathing under the stars.

Within walking distance are restaurants, coffee house, antique shop, boat rental, and convenience store. Just over a mile away in Dennisport village are more antique and gift shops plus large grocery store. Close by are great golf courses and, of course, Dennis' famous beaches on both north and south sides. A bit beyond is the entire glorious Cape.

Relaxing River Stay
Stayed at this lovely home earlier this year. Stayed on the Cape, the Vineyard, and Chappy many times. First time in Dennis and our stay was great in this riverfront home. Everything you need for a very comfortable stay. Absolutely loved the view during breakfast on the deck, and daily kayaking on the river. Birdwatchers will love it. Can leave your own kayaks at home. We will be back, thank you!

Absolutely AMAZING
We came to stay here for my birthday, and it was gorgeous right off the bat. The place was so clean, so comfortable and absolutely beautiful. The private dock was the perfect place to just vibe out and have fun with my partner and my friend. This is the perfect vacation destination!! If you're debating booking this place, DO NOT HESITATE!! It is SO WORTH IT. Thank you so much to the owners for giving me the best birthday vacation residence possible!

Family vaca
What an adorable property! Comfy, cozy with such an awesome view of the water. (The water is actually closer than it appears in the photos). We loved watching the birds in the yard at the feeders. The baby loved watching the swan and the geese on the water from the deck. The neighborhood is very quiet and the area is very walkable which we loved! We went to the Sea Street beach which was very nice and very close. The location on the Cape was great! We were close to the ferry for Nantucket and not too far from the ferry to the Vinyard. It was only about an hour to Provincetown which was a nice day trip. We were very close to the bike trail and that was a beautiful ride. We would definitely come back and stay at this property again. Kelly was very responsive and so very nice! I can’t say enough about our stay! Thank you Kelly, Steve and Michael!!

We are three friends and colleagues for 50 years. What a lovely accomodation for our mini-reunion. The home is cozy, immaculate, well appointed and charming. The location is peaceful and shady. The river view is wonderful! The TV 's were a challenge for we "older" folk, but we figured it out. The host, could not be nicer! 5 Stars!

Lovely Swan River Retreat!
This cottage is one of the best rentals we have ever had! The house was immaculate and beautifully furnished but not fussy. We were a party of 6 older adults and there was plenty of comfortable seating with views of the river. We enjoyed cooking in the well-stocked kitchen, eating together, doing puzzles, watching movies (brought our own dvd player) playing games. There was plenty of storage space in the kitchen and bedrooms. The appliances worked well and were modern. The bedrooms were very comfortable and serene. The houses are close together on the street but looking out back you would never know it. Just a splendid view of sunrises over the river. Loved watching egrets, swans, mergansers, and kingfisher along with familiar backyard birds. Kate was so helpful and attentive - the perfect hostess. We hope to come back!

Nice and peaceful
We had a great relaxing weekend here. House is very comfortable and well equipped. Kids enjoyed the games and we enjoyed the puzzles. The sunrise is amazing, and I could sit and watch the water for hours. One note: the master bedroom is not well heated and was colder than the rest of the house. That was not a big issue for us, as we went there only to sleep.

Fabulous location, immaculate home
We watched the sunrise over the water every morning, and the moon every evening. From the deck, we watched swans, egrets, great, blue heron, green heron, kingfishers, cormorants, and a variety of backyard birds at the feeder. The kitchen was well equipped for the nights we ate in, and there were fabulous restaurants within 20 minutes in any direction. We’ll be back!!

Great spot on the river in Dennis!
The location of this riverfront cottage can not be beat. We enjoyed morning coffee on the back deck overlooking the beautiful river views. Although the location was central and convenient to the Cape, the home and surrounding area were peaceful and private. The cottage decor was even more impressive than in the online photos. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again!

Beautiful place on the water
This was a beautiful and clean house with a really remarkably lovely view of the Swan River. A group of college friends and I needed a place to stay for the weekend. This house had plenty to do for the pre-teens among us, while also having lots of places for the grownups to sit and talk. The location was perfect - everything close by - and it was a great pleasure to be able to explore the channels of the river. The house was super-clean and well-equipped and the owners were very helpful and responsive. Would totally stay again!

We had a wonderful, relaxing time at the house. The location is excellent, with a beautiful view and feeling of being surrounded by nature, and yet just a couple minutes walk from Kream and Kone, Dunkin', and many other stores. The kitchen was well-stocked with pots/pans -- we had everything we needed. Overall a lovely house. Would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful Stay!
It has taken days to stop daydreaming about our stay at this beautiful location. We all enjoyed the quiet mornings by the river, kayaking to the bridge and back, and playing board games in the evening. Also, nothing beats a nice outdoor shower! My youngest daughter loved the toys/games that were available, There are plenty of pots/pans and spices, but bring your own sugar, olive oil, and such or cooking. A huge convenience is a very short walk to 7-11, Dunkin Donuts, and an ice cream shop. This definitely came in handy since we were avoiding buying too many groceries. Kelly was spot on with communication. We cant wait to return next year!
