I stayed at the Swan River House for NYE of 2024! It was a wonderful experience for me and my friends. We had a blast with the foosball and billiards table and using the hot tub. The house had everything we needed and was the perfect size. The host was responsive and consistently checking in online to see if we needed anything. I would definitely stay here again.

We loved our week at Swan River house. The house was very clean, well stocked and a lot of fun for all ages. We were super happy with communication - there was some planks missing at the end of the dock which we communicated to the property manger which made us nervous given we had kids and they fixed them immediately. We will be returning!

No complaints and would recommend the bed room images are a little confusing but in person it wasn’t bad. There is a double sofa bed that is its own room that’s listed as a 2 twin size beds and a sofa couch in the master bed room. That’s what gave me a little hard time understanding the photos, but outside of that lovely stay hot tub works great and have no complaints.

The Swan River House was exactly as described and made for an excellent family getaway on the Cape. The home comfortably accommodated our group of 10 (five adults and five kids aged 10-17), with plenty of bedroom space. The deck was a perfect gathering spot for meals, and the space heater and fire pit added a cozy touch. The backyard, which included a dock, was ideal for our dogs. Although the hot tub water wasn’t in great condition upon arrival due to the previous guests, the issue was promptly addressed. The kitchen was well-equipped for all our meal preparations, and the pool table and foosball games were a delightful bonus.

The house was pretty much as described, although the patio heaters were put away for the season, which was a bummer. Lots of space to play, plenty of TVs and games. The kitchen had everything we needed. One downside was that we hoped to be able to utilize all the bedrooms but with younger kids and the massive separation between wings of the bedrooms it made bunking up necessary which wasn’t ideal. Probably a great set up for a family with older kids! Things are definitely falling apart a bit- showers hanging from wall and towel rods not secured into wall, but overall it’s a nice house with lots of space and everything you could need. Those with allergies note that you can smell that dogs have been there - my son and I suffered a bit from that but it did say pet friendly so just good to be aware!

Small group of family enjoyed the weekend. Great views of the river off the deck. Relaxed in the hot tub. My son and his friend (18 & 20) enjoyed the large tv's, pool table and foosball. With covid making celebrating this milestone birthday more difficult than usual, this house was a perfect getaway.

Our family enjoyed a great relaxing week at this home! The house was clean and well-equipped. Enjoyed the convenience of the Swan River for kayaking, short ride to the rail trail for biking, and short drive to the beach. Quiet side street is super close to restaurants and grocery stores.

The owner was quick to respond. We were happy that the linens and towels were included. The home is clean, plenty of beds, and the appliances are new. The 2 large screen televisions satisfied the movie watcher and video gamers in the family. We enjoyed Cape Cod, the shoreline, and the seafood. Took us 75 minutes to drive into Boston for a day trip. Thank you.
