It's beautifully decorated and very well equipped. The neighborhood is so quiet- just the way we like it. The heated pool is just delightful. Our kids loved that room (referring to the Loft over the garage). It was a great idea to add that room this year. ... The house has loads of living space, so your guests would not feel crowded. .. Thank you for sharing your home with us.' Another of our guests wrote 'We had a fabulous time at your home. Thank you for opening your home to us.' On of our guests wrote: 'Thank you for sharing your wonderful shore house with us. We had an awesome time!!! The sunset last night was the most beautiful my family and I had ever seen'.

We have sold out from late June through mid September for each of the past eighteen seasons. The head of our cleaning team wrote: "I meant to tell you yesterday that the past couple of weeks the growth and flowers in your yard are amazing and magical. I wouldn't leave the house or the yard if I were on vacation. Your house is by far one of the nicest rentals out of the 50 we tend to and you should be at the top of any rating list there is. You should know this. Good job." Our summer rentals are from Saturday to Saturday. Saturday is our change over day. Let Great Island and our beautiful home become the highlight of your Cape Cod Vacation as it has been for the Hayes family for the past 52 years. NOTICE FOR 2022 SUMMER SEASON: The state of Massachusetts has enacted a new tax on summer rentals, which is 14.45 % of the rental amount. This is made of 5.7% state tax, 6% town tax, 2.75% Cape Wastewater tax. This was just enacted effective January 1st! This, I am told, brings us in line with the tax charged on area hotels and motels. In the event of CANCELLATION we will make every effort to re rent the property at the best price we are able to obtain at the time. We will be happy to refund the difference between what you paid and what we are able to recoup, minus any out of pocket expenses such as booking fees or commissions.
