We stayed at the Flamingo house over Thanksgiving, so we could visit the Plimoth Patuxet Museum to see how the pilgrims did Thanksgiving. The house was cozy and clean, with a lot of rooms and beds—which was good for a family with 4 kids and a dog. Jocelyn, our host, was very nice and helpful throughout our stay. She gave us ideas for things to do in the area with the kids, took care of every ask, and let us have a late exit. We would definitely come back again.

Warm and cozy place

My husband and I had a very pleasant at Onset Beach Compound, especially with this being our first time in Cape Cod. First of all, the house was immaculate set up perfectly before our arrival. The owners - Ken and Josc were very kind and willing to go out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed our stay. I really enjoyed the surrounding neighborhood - there were many restaurants to choose from and pleasant paths to walk our dog. Thank you - Ken and Josc for the wonderful stay, we look forward to staying with you again.
