Peaceful and Serene Vacation House Rentals in Cape Cod, MA
Cape Cod hits different in the winter months. The crowds are gone, the trees are barren, almost stark against the snowy backdrop, and no, there won’t be swimming or lounging on the beach in colorful beach chairs while working on your tan. But as you and your family tumble out of your car, eager to get this vacation started, you won’t be thinking about bikinis and sunscreen; you will be thinking of cozy nights spent fireside, (Some of our vacation rentals, holiday or not, will offer a gas fireplace!) sipping hot cocoa or Irish coffee and reveling in the peace and serenity that our homes exude!
Your New Year’s journey will be filled with quiet moments that will speak to your soul and family moments that will draw you closer together. We at Pretty Picky Properties are just happy that we can provide the warm and comfortable backdrop for all of your New Year’s adventures on Cape Cod!
Resolution Number 2: Eating Better
Now that you have the treating yourself resolution out of the way, let’s explore all the ways you can eat better during your holiday shenanigans. Our fully equipped kitchens truly are the heart of the home, and although there are many restaurants in the area eagerly awaiting your patronage, you may find that on New Year’s Eve, you want to stay in, watching the snow fall to the ground from inside where it is warm and cozy.
Local grocery stores can provide all you need for an evening of family fun, and for our own families, we often like to stock up on frozen appetizers, popping trays of them in the oven at various times throughout the night and celebrating like we like to think the rich and famous do! The updated appliances in our kitchens will make it easy to cook or bake any kind of meal that you like, and whether you eat in front of the television in our cozy living rooms, gather around the dining room table with your entire family, or simply snack standing up at the counter in our hearts of the home kitchens, your New Year’s dining is sure to be memorable!
