- "We had 11 people, 6 adults, 4 kids ( aged 2.5 - 13) and an infant. Hydrangea house was stocked to provide something for everyone! Tubby time in the BIG deep tub was a favorite after the beach. Location is gorgeous, and close to many different activities. Hydrangea House is the perfect spot to stay with a large group to create wonderful memories. Thank you!" - "Our second stay at Hydrangea House was as satisfying as our first. The VRBO listing is admirably detailed and accurate, but even it does not fully capture the wonderful feeling of the house and the genius of the layout. The open concept of the ground floor, combined with the high ceilings and the second floor gallery, creates a sense both of spaciousness and connectedness that is very relaxing, and is enhanced by the quality and cleanliness of the furnishings. Each of the bedrooms is lovely, and together with the reading/game nooks on both levels there is ample opportunity both to gather and for privacy. And I have never seen a rental with such a great set-up for children, with the two connecting rooms that provide multiple beds- even including two queens who want to sleep near their kids- as well as games, without being crowded. Owner Kevin is a joy to deal with, and Cape Porpoise is a great setting. 5 stars all the way!"

The main part of the house is on the second floor and is accessed by stairs, while the ground level has 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, and a family room. The place was clean, the beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We met the hosts when we arrived, and they were accommodating and helpful.

KPort Concierge is happy to invite you to this one of a kind property. Built in the 1860s, it is full of charm and vintage touches with a cool old barn, lovely marsh views, and tidal access out to the open ocean.
The barn has been converted into a play space for both adults and children alike with a ping pong table and shuffleboard downstairs, and additional sleep space in the form of a long, built-in daybed and a playroom full of activities and games for the kids upstairs.

The old part of the house includes a full bath with a shower, clawfoot tub, a ground floor bedroom with a queen-sized bed, and a custom-built staircase made from salvaged wood from Brooklyn, New York.
Upstairs you will find the “bunk room” with 5 built-in twin beds and a large tv- perfect for movie and sleepover nights- the kids’ #1 request when building the house. There are two additional guest rooms with queen-sized beds and the primary bedroom, boasting soaring, beamed ceilings, a 65” television, and a balcony with the best water views in the house.

- "You won’t regret it." - "The freshly redone property at 41 Mills easily handled our large group of 9 adults and two children, 3 & 5. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The large kitchen & dining area was well appointed and made meals easy for us. Kayaking & paddle boarding right from the backyard was a treat. The game room was perfect for a rainy Saturday. Our expectations were pleasantly exceeded." - "Our family was absolutely thrilled when we arrived to find the property nicer than we could have imagined, even nicer than the VRBO description. The comfort, style, relaxed ambiance and lovely setting were ideal, with a layout that could suit varied groups, including the young children with us, and space and privacy for all. We were already familiar with the area, appreciating the quiet escape from crowds and traffic, yet with lobster pounds, chowder shacks, local grocers and shops close by. We loved the ease of launching kayaks from the back yard for daily paddles and enjoyed short excursions to a choice of beaches, nature preserves and coastal towns.

The house is two-stories with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths on the second floor and 1 bedroom and 1 bath on the first floor. There are hard wood floors throughout and two entrances; one in the front and one in the back. AC in the summer and a gas fireplace for the winter. There is a casual dining table and counter seating off-the kitchen and a more formal dining room that can seat up to 14 people.

The backyard offers a great place for the family and/or kids to relax with a deck, seating, gas fire grill and fire pit. All of our neighbours spray (safely) for Mosquitos, so it's one of the few yards in Cape Porpoise that you can enjoy in the summer evenings.

- "I recently had the pleasure of staying at Lindsey’s oceanfront property, and it was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we arrived, Lindsey made us feel at home with her warmth, politeness, and thoughtful touches, including stocking the house with treats for my family. The house itself is grand and beautiful, offering a picturesque view of the ocean that took our breath away. It comfortably accommodated my family of 10 plus our dog, providing ample space and amenities for everyone. What made our stay even more special were the sea lions inhabiting a rock off the coast. We were thrilled to watch them with my dad’s drone, adding a unique touch to our vacation. I wholeheartedly recommend Lindsey’s property for anyone looking for a luxurious stay with stunning views and personalized hospitality. Our time there will remain a cherished memory for years to come. Thank you, Lindsey, for an incredible week!"

This 2000 sq.ft. cottage is part of a 2-unit building. The other half (with separate entrance) is for our own use/guests.

It is an "upside down house," with bedrooms on the 1st floor and living areas upstairs to maximize views from the living area.

On the first floor there are 3 bedrooms, each with their own en-suite full bathroom. Two bedrooms each have king size beds, and one bedroom has 2 twins. The bedrooms are small but efficient. There is also a mudroom with powder room and laundry on this floor.
