Welcome to the magical world of The Boat House Loft "Beach House". The cooling breezes off the waters of Swan Pond are a surefire antidote to summer's scorching heat. Located on our private inland peninsula, we have a spacious, open floor plan & spectacular water views from EVERY ROOM.

Guests love our activity-rich choices ~ free use of two kayaks, a stand-up paddle board and canoe (that survived a tornado!). We supply our guests with fresh linens & towels, plush pillows & a comfortable choice of bedspreads. We are well- behaved dog friendly (they need a vacation, too!)

The Boat House Loft offers an unforgettable vacation with a variety of flexible booking opportunities to suit your needs - with short or long term stays available. Kindly check the calendar for booking availability of our off season weekly discounts of 7 nights or longer (select "View Details" after date selection).

We are the perfect "hide-a-way", located at the end of a very private, unpaved country road. Finger tips grazing the warm waters of Swan Pond. Unforgettable memories fondly lingering long after the return trip home.

CONCIERGE HOST: Your Host also lives nearby, ready to assist you, upon request, with local knowledge of beaches & nature trails plus recommendations for activities, fun destinations & restaurants. Also there to help with the guest's forgetting of keys (no lock smith necessary!)

LOFT PLUS CONVENIENT STORAGE: Part of the Loft's first floor level (approximately 60 square feet) is a dedicated interior storage area which, on request, is available to our guests for their bicycles and to stow coolers, golf clubs, etc. Keep those nice bikes out of the weather & your upstairs living quarters clutter free.

Electric bikes are not permitted inside the storage area nor do we permit recharging of electric vehicles of any type on the premises.

LOYALTY REWARDS PROGRAM: Our appreciative gift to you! We will reimburse 50% of the VRBO Service Fee on a future repeat visit the following calendar year (guest must email request at time of booking). Our returning guests love this valuable perk!

Complimentary water-sports and spectacular over-water sunrises in the freshly redecorated Loft. CENTRALLY LOCATED! Only 5 minutes to RESTAURANTS, ENTERTAINMENT, OCEAN BEACHES & MAJOR SHOPPING. Only 25 minutes to Hyannis and the island ferries.

We welcome children ages 4 years old and up. Of course parents are responsible and STRICTLY LIABLE for their young children AT ALL TIMES - especially on the stairway and the waterfront.

NO PET FEES! We do not add on mandatory extra fees for pets, boat rentals, damage insurance, linens, towels or third person occupancy - saving hundreds off your vacation's bottom line cost. There is a modest cleaning fee.

Only 30 minutes from the Sagamore Bridge, we are the best choice for both the recreational vacationing couple and the leisurely holiday seeker. The Loft offers a classic Cape Cod country interior with an amenity-filled waterfront experience. Stunning water views from every window.

The Boathouse Loft is a naturalist's & birder's dream, surrounded by natural beauty, a peaceful and relaxing oasis on the shores of one of Cape Cod's largest salt water lakes .....a beautiful waterfront sanctuary situated on its own private peninsula encompassed on 3 sides by water and 1 side by conservation land ....with spectacular sunrises & sunsets plus ocean access to Nantucket Sound. Yet, only minutes to great seafood restaurants, shopping, beaches and fun attractions.

Go kayaking every day with no boat rental fees. Waterfront is the difference between an ordinary and an extraordinary summer vacation. There is no sweeter place to kick off your flip flops. We offer a relaxing waterfront vacation at a reasonable price.....plus we love and cater to our happy guests! We are very dog friendly (with restrictions) and do not charge a pet fee.

With a second story open floor plan, The Loft has a comfortable Cape Cod "country style" appearance. You are the sole occupants - assuring complete privacy (the first floor is storage).

It boasts four separate rooms, each with country blue painted floors:
-The main living/sleeping accommodations
-The sun filled eat-in veranda with Euro ceiling fan overlooking the water .
-The fully applianced kitchen
~The all white bathroom with contemporary fixtures. Featured are an over-sized 38" neo-angle stall shower, a European-style vanity and a comfort height commode.

- Climate comfort ....enjoy the open window fresh breezes off the pond with your second story elevation. During hot summer days, the Loft is fully air-conditioned (14,000 BTUs total ) During the crisp spring and autumn days, the bedroom, kitchen/veranda & bathroom have individual heaters & thermostats controlling the heat.

The scenic approach to the Boat House Loft is by a private winding dirt road. At the very end of the road is a tiny enclave of homes including the Boat House and it's very private Cape Cod 'tree house' loft, perched on the second floor under pine trees.

Included with the Boat House Loft is a large private outdoor space. Great for relaxing and grilling at the water's edge. The location is ideal for the kayaking, canoeing, stand-up paddle boarding or sailing enthusiast ....you have direct access to the launch area.

UNIQUE ON CAPE COD. We offer the ultimate in on-the-water value for our guests. Included at no charge is our fleet of watercraft- take a book and a snack, and float where the wind & current takes you - relaxing & reading while the waves gently rock you back-and-forth. The "Future Beach Maui 124" stand up paddle board (pond use only), two "sit-in" kayaks and a canoe that survived a tornado hit! No boat rental fees! (Note: The Host may coordinate usage of the watercraft with the Guest, who has priority usage).

Naturalist's dream! Circumnavigate Swan Pond in any of the watercraft or use the kayaks and canoe to paddle down Swan Pond River to the ocean and beach. The boating is some of the best on Cape Cod - two miles downstream is Nantucket Sound, with a Town of Dennis public beach at the mouth of the river. It is warm water south-side beach kissed by the Gulf Stream. Exhilarating! What an excellent way to enjoy being on the water.

The centrally located Loft is exactly 30 minutes from the Sagamore Bridge.

~IMPORTANT ASTHMA & RESPIRATORY SENSITIVITY ADVISORY - The Boat House Loft is directly on the water and, like all waterfront properties, is subject to a beautiful morning fog & moisture laden pond winds. The Loft is NOT SUITABLE for those with asthma or any other humidity or moisture related respiratory allergies or sensitivities

What a fabulous vacation we had! I stayed at the Boathouse with my 4-year-old Weimaraner, Lola. When we drove up, Larry & King were there to greet us and give us a tour of the property. The property was immaculate and had everything we needed to enjoy a wonderful waterfront vacation complete with 2 kayaks, a Stand-up Paddle board, a canoe & a zodiac. The outdoor area had a fire pit that unfortunately we never used even though Larry cut up some firewood for us! The property is peaceful and the view of the water was so calming. I enjoyed the kayak & the SUP. The location at the end of a dirt road allowed Lola to be able to be off leash which she loved! I can not say enough how welcoming Larry & King were - it made our vacation so special! We will definitely be back for another visit - hopefully in the fall!

FABULOUS.... FABULOUS.... FABULOUS!!!!
Larry and King are great hosts and the property is perfect for a quiet getaway with plenty to do if you want! Between the location of the boat house (close to everything) kayaks, canoe, amazing view from the porch, beautiful sunrise's, all the amenities you need and again, the fabulous hosts, this was a perfect getaway for us! Thank you again Larry and King for making our getaway awesome, we will definitely be back!

"We had the best week!! Loved our location and the ability to kayak and paddle board literally right outside the front door. Awesome location. Central to everything but down an old dirt road so you felt like you were on a retreat. Can’t say enough about Larry. One of the nicest people we have ever met. Very accommodating and respectful. King was a wonderful added benefit. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!"

Rejuvenating and far too short!
Wonderful stay. Wish we had an additional week! The “loft” views of Swan Pond, with the breezes filtering in, made even our simplest of meals an experience! Whether using the complementary watercraft on the Pond or sitting and reading (or napping) by the pond, the salt air relaxed the soul. Even a rainy day in that “loft” made one feel like a kid in a tree house. Laurence is a Primo host!! Five Star! So knowledgeable and friendly, not at all intrusive, but so helpful. Our elderly canine gentleman loved all the naps he got too.

Laurance's Vrbo is in the middle of the Cape--great distance from downtown areas, Ptown, and beaches! He is a wonderful host that gave a full run-down of the place, leaving no details missed! Lives right next door for any needs. Very detail oriented--e.g. complimentary water for hard water on the Cape and iron! Gave such wonderful recommendations and had the best time kayaking out on the water. Thank you so much! :)

Great Waterfront View and Privacy
Laurance is very helpful and easy-going. He welcomed our dog, was quick to respond whenever we had a question, and never felt over-bearing or like he was prying while we were enjoying his home. The property has a small launch area for entering the water and ample space for hanging out. Our favorite feature of the boathouse is being able to look out over the water from almost anywhere in the house. The kitchen has everything you need, and Laurance has provided an outdoor grill. There were no issues with cleanliness in the house. There were also two AC units that help keep us comfortable inside. We hope to come back to visit soon, we absolutely enjoyed the boathouse and getting to know Laurance.

A perfect place for an amazing Cape vacation.
Had an amazing stay at the boat house loft. The location can't be beat. The view is incredible. Minutes to the beaches, bike trails and everything else. Kayaking the pond is a great option and lets you enjoy the plentiful waterfowl in the area. Perfect place for a couple. Only complaint would be the water pressure on the shower was low. A cozy place in a perfect location.

A little gem in a great location
A waterfront location equipped with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Host Laurance is nearby and available when and if you need him, and invisible when you don't. Besides having a kitchen with most everything you'll need, and a bedroom with a large flat-screen TV, you will find lots of outdoors bonuses at no extra charge. You've got a BBQ with two propane tanks, seating and tables, a Zodiac rowboat, two kayaks and a standup paddle board. Centrally-located on the Cape, easy access to stores and restaurants, but otherwise a little paradise hideaway. Our dog loved it, and so did we!

Comfy quiet place!
Me, my partner and our dog really enjoyed our stay here! Laurance Is very kind, gave us a very thorough tour of the place in the amenities and some suggestions for things to do with our dog. The Dirt road to the place is not too bad at least when it's dry, probably any SUV or even a sedan with enough clearance should have zero issues with it. well we didn't get around to using any of the outdoor amenities besides the fireplace, it was nice to have them as an option in case we just wanted to stay and hang out at the place. But since we were there for just a weekend we prioritized getting to see lots of other places. We found the place pretty clean and comfortable and the ample windows and Pond views were very amazing and relaxing. This was a great find both for location and price and for having booked it basically two weeks before our trip when there was basically nothing else available within our price range . Would love to come back for a longer day!

Boathouse is a delightful vacation spot
The Cape Cod Boathouse is a delightful vacation spot, offering a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. Situated conveniently by the water, it boasts direct access to a the water, including a rowboat and kayaks ensuring that you can fully enjoy the serene beauty of Swan Pond. One of the standout features is the easy access to the water. Whether you're keen on taking a leisurely rowboat ride or simply dipping your toes in the pond, the boathouse makes it effortless. The availability of various water toys, such as kayaks, paddle-board and rowboat, adds a fun and engaging element to the stay. These amenities are perfect for couples looking to explore Swan Pond at their own pace. The boathouse offers picturesque views of the pond, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. Morning sunrises and evening sunsets over the water provide a tranquil backdrop for your stay. The boathouse is well-equipped with modern amenities to ensure a comfortable stay. Clean, cozy, and thoughtfully furnished, it feels like a home away from home. There are ample outdoor spaces, where you can enjoy meals, read a book, or simply take in the natural surroundings. While the boathouse offers a secluded and peaceful setting, it is also conveniently located near local attractions, restaurants, and shops, allowing guests to explore the charm of Cape Cod easily.

A Charming Week on the Cape
Listing photos were accurate. This is a cute older boat house on a salt water pond fed by the ocean. Our stay was what we expected. Laurence the property manager was super nice and friendly. We picked this property because we were traveling with our dog and we also loved that it had kayaks etc available on site not to mention a beautiful pond water view. It was perfect for our stay for a week on the Cape during the 4th of July. We would definitely stay here again. Everything was very thoughtful and detail oriented for our stay. It felt fairly secluded for a busy time on the cape given it being a holiday week. Thanks Laurence for a great stay!

Relaxing Getaway
Our second time staying at the Boat Loft. Had a wonderful getaway from the hustle and bustle of work. The inside definitely could use a touch up, but the location and price can not be beat. The view from the front room out over Swan Lake is magical. You feel as if you are floating along, watching so many fowl floating and flying by. We spent most days kayaking the lake, meandering our way down the river and ending up relaxing on the sandy ocean beach, just watching the waves roll by! Then a return trip back up the river for a great dinner either from the local seafood restaurant or grilled outside on the BBQ. Our two pups enjoyed coming with us on the trip which makes it even that more memorable!! The campfires at night with coyotes howling in the near distance was so awe inspiring too. Then of course meeting King the owners dog, what a magnificent looking dog and oh so sweet! I would highly recommend the Boat Loft if you are trying to find a gem hidden in the rough.
