I was married at the Isaiah Jones Homestead Aug 21, 2009. An intimate backyard ceremony. Donni and Katherine were AMAZING hostes. They went out of their way to make sure the day went off perfectly. They were able to accomodate a special wedding dinner for 15. The dinning room table was set beautifully. The service was top notch. We stayed in the Demin Jarves Suite, the room was spacious, comfortable and clean. We plan to spend every anniversary here! Thank you Katherine and Donny for making our Wedding Day perfect!

The Isaiah Jones Homestead met all of our requests from a bed and breakfast: an engaging host who appreciates that his guests aren’t there to see him yet who is accessible and ever friendly and knowledgeable, walking distance to good restaurants, a bright, appealing room with a comfortable bed, an above average breakfast served at a private table, a reasonable rate and parking on site. We highly recommend this bed and breakfast if you are visiting any portion of Cape Cod or the environs. We will return if we are in the area.

We stayed on our way to martha's vineyard. The owners not only remembered each of us by first name from the initial call, but remembered the animal and food allergies we had. The house was charming, the food was wonderful and....when our car had a near death experience, Don found us a mechanic, drove me there, and saved us from lost time on our vacation. We have high expectations and....the Isaiah Jones met them in all respects.

La casa es preciosa dentro de un vecindario muy tranquilo, nuestra habitación muy limpia y al detalle, increíble el trabajo de Don y Katherine para tener la casa perfecta, y los desayunos increibles, todo lo que digamos es poco. Don y Katherine son muy hospitalarios y te hacen sentir uno más de la familia, elegir esta casa fue un acierto. Angela y Marcos.

This turned out to be a perfect inn to stay at for 2 mothers who wanted to get away from our busy lives and just enjoy ourselves and be pampered! Breakfast was great. The package we took included tours and sightseeing as well as dinner. Location was perfect. We slept like babies in their comfortable beds! The innkeepers made us feel right at home. This was our first B&B experience and we were pleasantly surprised! Will definitely do it again! - Maria and Ramona

We stayed at Isaiah Jones Homestead for our mini vacation/ wedding anniversary. We had the most enjoyable experience at the Inn. We could not have a better mini vacation: very attentive innkeepers, comfortable luxuries room, delicious homemade breakfast, perfect setting in the heart of the charming village and not far from the beach, whirlpool bathtub, and more. Donny and Katherine were so attentive to our needs that we felt as a part of their family. They made sure I had only a healthy breakfast as I have diabetes. On the day of our anniversary, we received a surprising bottle of champagne from our perfect hosts. They also offered to make a reservation to an elegant restaurant that evening. Our stay was wonderful. Mark and Irina

The Isaiah Jones Homestead is a shining jewel in the middle of Sandwich! Our stay was amazing from the moment we were greeted at our car by name, to the room that felt like we were transported back in time to the 18th century, to the HAND CRAFTED 3 course breakfasts set romantically out on the porch overlooking adirondack chairs in their beautiful garden! Don and Katherine made us feel so special that we felt like we were their only guests, despite the full parking lot! Truly an amazing experience! -Michele C, Albany, NY

We recently stayed at the Isaiah Jones Homestead in Sandwich, MA (Cape Cod). It was one of the best B&B's we've say in. The accomodations were top notch, the location idealic, and the three course breakfasts were superb! However, what made the stay so memorable were the inn keepers - Donnie and Katherine Sanderson. They not only made us feel welcome, thay made us feel like family. A must stay for anyone going to the Cape. Gary and Michele S., Newtown, PA

My husband and I found this inn through an online search and were extremely pleased with our stay. We were there from Sunday to Tuesday -- arriving home today. The inn is charming, clean, elegant, and very well maintained. The decor fits the time period of the home, but also includes many modern conveniences such as high speed wifi, central AC, ceiling fans and a very comfortable bed. We had a private, spacious room. Parking is right outside and the inn is located right in the village of Sandwich close to many little shops. The yard has a pretty pond and lovely seating. All of this we have had at B & Bs in other areas, but we have never had breakfasts like those served at Isaiah Jones. Three courses - different each day - consisting of the likes of carmelized plums and apricots, cranberry scones, eggs benedict - you won't want to eat lunch the breakfast food is so great. All of this is served in an elegant dining room on beautiful china. The inn also has a refrigerator with beverages available for guests. We truly enjoyed our stay and plan on returning. We've already recommended the Isaiah Jones Homestead to friends.

We stayed at this lovely bed and breakfast only one night, and wished we could have stayed much longer. It's clear that the innkeepers, Donny and Catherine, have spent quite a bit of time thinking about every little thing a guest could want, not only in the guest room, but also throughout every room in the house which they welcomed us to enjoy. The decor of this beautiful old home is marvelous, with big guest rooms. And the back yard is breathtaking..if it had not been raining, we would have sat out there under the huge shade trees. And finally, the breakfast we were served was superb...one or both of them are obviously accomplished chefs.

Twenty years ago, we stayed at this delightful Inn, as the first stop on a bicycle trip from Boston to Provincetown. The second stay was as wonderful as the first. Don and Katherine maintain that perfect balance as hosts - making us feel like family rather than customers yet not ever being intrusive. The rooms are exquisitely decorated; the linens are elegant and soft; lovely Asian rugs and antiques throughout the Inn. Three course home made breakfasts, with perfect portions, started our day. Don's blend of cranberry juice and fresh squeezed orange juice is yummy. Sandwich is, for us, the prettiest town on the Cape and a great base for exploring. Try lunch or dinner at the Painted Lady!

I had stopped using B&B's for many years as I found out owners to be either quirky or burned-out. My stays at I. Jones has changed my attitude. Don & Katherine are the perfect hosts, warm, caring, but not intrusive. The food is incredible and the rooms are luxorious and immaculate. Sandwich is a great place to unwind and there is a lot to do in town and throught out the cape. i can't recommend this place highly enough. It is a gem!

Our stay in Isaiah Jones is one of the very nicest stays we ever have experienced. The setting is beautiful, the breakfast with only home-made products is exquisite (new menu every morning), but above all the atmosphere created by Don&Katherine is extremely cosy, relaxing and sympathetic and they are very service-minded and helpful. Great hosts! We can warmly recommend this place - you won´t regret staying here. It is far more than a Bed and Breakfast.

Everything about this Inn was perfect. For starters, we were complimentary upgraded to one of the superior rooms in the carriage house with a king size bed and jacuzzi. The room was very clean, comfortable and one of the best beds I have ever slept on! The breakfast was out of this world, from the World Famous Don and Kathy juice drink, homemade omelets and fresh fruit. I have many dietary restrictions and they asked up front and accommodated them all, with no problem. The Inn Keepers were sweet and friendly without being intrusive. We got a tour of the entire house and all the guest rooms, since we had not stayed there before..and there truly is not a bad room in the house. I love the antiques and period furniture. It's tastefully decorated without being overdone. The location was perfect, near a wonderful restaurant...and it's only a 15 minute walk to a gorgeous beach with a wine/beer store on the way!! We will definitely stay here again!

We have stayed in B&B's all over the world. The Isaiah Jones Homestead is at the top of the list for many reasons. One is its well maintained, well serviced, beautiful and historically accurate rooms. Another is its fantastic location near the center of Sandwich. As in most cases the Innkeepers themselves are the most important factors. Don and Katherine couldn't be nicer nor more guest-oriented. I had to leave early on two mornings for a class and they cheerfully took the trouble to get up early (over and hour before the scheduled time) to prepare breakfast for me. Katherine's cooking is better than any B&B's in which we have stayed, reflecting the style and expertise picked up from travels in Europe as well as the inn in Hawaii that they owned most recently. We can't recommend this Inn too highly

In February, my husband and I spent a wonderful four days at Isaiah Jones Homestead. It could not have been nicer. The food was superb and the rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated. Our bathroom was large and had a huge jacuzzi tub. The innkeepers, Donnie and Katherine added so much to our stay with their friendliness and great service. They made us feel like family. The location of the inn is within easy walking distrance from quaint shops and historic locations. We plan to return many times in the future and would recommend it to anyone who wants to spend a few days relaxing and getting away from the stress of the everyday world.

My husband and I had the pleasure of celebrating our 20th anniversary at the Isaiah Jones from 4/13-4/15 2009. The town of Sandwich is the perfect place for long strolls, with many shops, historical buildings, and eating establishments so it was the perfect place for us to relax and enjoy our anniversary. We stayed in a charming and very clean room with reading alcove and working fireplace and had a lovely suprise waiting for us in our room when we arrived-a bottle of champagne on ice with strawberries and chocolates. It was completely unexpected and a great way to begin our stay. Breakfasts were three course, homemade, and delicious-my husband is still talking about the homemade apricot/almond scones. We had the added advantage of being the only couple at the B&B for both nights and so we had the innkeepers, Don and Katherine, to ourselves and were able to have leisurely chats with them in the morning-something that we enjoy doing. They were very gracious hosts, arranging dinner reservations for us and helping us with suggestions for places to visit during our stay. We so enjoyed meeting them and had such a lovely stay that we have decided to return in December to see the inn decorated for the holidays. I honestly have nothing negative to say about this B&B and have already recommended it to friends.

We were so fortunate to find this jewel of a guesthouse.Isaiah Jones Homestead promised much and far exceeded expectations. What initially attracted our eye was the building itself - just what we'd imagined a residence on Cape Cod to look like. Our hosts Don and Katherine treated us like royalty, and were so welcoming. We loved hearing stories of their experiences and just chatting with them was so entertaining and informative.The breakfasts were something we still enjoy telling people about, and our room was immaculate - uniquely themed and oh! so comfortable. We so hope to be able to return one day to Cape Cod and without question, we'd head straight for Isaiah Jones' Homestead.

For our honeymoon we stayed a week at the Isaiah Jones Homestead in the carriage house, separate from the main house. We had full access to the main house and never felt like we were intruding in anyway. Each morning we looked forward to breakfast, not only for the delicious variety of foods, but it was nice to share stories with the other guests of their adventures the previous day. There is a lot to do in the area, the innkeepers are also a good source for unique outing ideas. Our room was very private, the linens were the softest I've ever touched (which was amazing especially with sunburn and blisters we ended up with after the whale cruise…sunscreen is a must even on cloudy days!) and the huge bathtub was an added bonus after traveling throughout the Cape each day. Not to mention the snacks kept on hand in the main house for all to enjoy. We look forward to returning one day.
