Cozy Weekend Get Away
Laura was an incredible host - her attention to detail and kindness is unmatched. She was great with communication and always quick to respond.
The space itself is beautiful, lots of natural light and very Cape like finishes. The private back deck was our favorite place to relax during our weekend stay.

Comfortable & perfect location
Loved our stay at this location. The apartment was adorable and so very comfortable. Our host, Laura, thought of every convenience. The apartment was thoughtfully stocked with snacks, waters, coffee, tea, cream and sugar. The apartment design, maximized space while maintaining charm. We enjoyed a peaceful deck, set in a lovely garden. Proximity to the center of town, beaches and ferries, made for a lovely, relaxing weekend. Thank you Laura!

Weekend Getaway
The Cupboard Atop the Stairs is a delightful space! Perfect for a weekend away. Laura was extremely helpful, making room in her garage for our bikes as it was pouring when we arrived on the Cape. Despite the rain, Falmouth offered plenty to keep us busy and our accomodations were cozy. A well stocked kitchenette allowed for coffee in bed in the morning:)

Family Reunion
Great accomodations offering everything we needed. Quiet neighborhood, neat and clean rooms, thoughtful amenities. We originally booked for two weeks prior in order to attend a family reunion. However a threatening hurricane forced the party's cancellation. Laura was terrific in working with us to reschedule our reservation.

Magical Stay at the Shire
The Cupboard Atop the Stairs is a very special place. The room was nicely appointed with a comfortable bed, luxurious bedding, large fluffy towels, and many amenities that you would find in a deluxe hotel. The mini fridge and Keurig coffee maker were great to have and stylish too! The private deck was wonderful - a peaceful place to enjoy a cup of coffee and some Girl Scout cookies while looking out at the lovely garden. We truly enjoyed our stay and recommend it highly. Thank you Laura!

Laura was such an amazing host! So friendly and so accommodating. She stocked the house up with everything we need and more (snacks, and fresh diet cokes in the fridge!!) she even got a brand new grill and it worked so well. We had our 52 pound dog with us and the yard was PERFECT for him. He ran around and had so much space! He slept in the room with us no problem, but we had him out a lot on walks and stuff too. The bed was so comfortable and the AC worked so well. We would 10000% stay here again!!

Excellent stay
My husband Leo booked a 3 night stay at the Cupboard for me.It was a great stay. My name is Christine and I recently lost my dog. I needed a place to go to get away that was peaceful and serene. This was the perfect place. It was immaculate, cozy, private and safe and the most comfortable bed. It has everything you need there and I was able to relax and grieve when I had to. Laura was outstanding and very friendly. I spent a little time with her outside near the gardens. It was great and I would definitely go back. I 100% recommend this property!!

Really cute place in a great location!
I stayed here with my cousin for a girl's trip to Falmouth/Martha's Vineyard. It's a nice little place to stay and in a great location. It's on a quiet street in a cute neighborhood, but it's close enough to easily drive (or Uber/Lyft) to Falmouth center, the ferry, etc. The shower is big and the bed is comfy. The host is really friendly/helpful and greeted me when I first arrived (she also always responded to my messages quickly). She provided us with lots of snacks, a fridge with water bottles, a microwave, etc. We had a great time, and definitely recommend this spot! If you can, take advantage of the porch out back. We forgot to do that, and it looked really peaceful! (Just a note to bring an eye mask if the light wakes you up. I forgot mine and the light shines pretty brightly into the skylight on the ceiling)
