Renting Cape Cod Since 2003

Owner-operated and still answering the phone. We know these towns, these houses, and what makes a Cape Cod week worth coming back for.

Our Story

Owner-Operated on Cape Cod Since 2003

Leighton Rentals started as a small, owner-run agency and has grown into one of the most established rental companies on the Cape. We've been matching guests with the right house since 2003, and in that time we've built a portfolio that spans Brewster, Chatham, Harwich, Dennis, Orleans, and beyond. We don't hand you off to a call center. The people who answer your questions know Cape Cod, know the properties, and have usually walked through the house you're asking about. That's been true since day one, and it's still true now.

How We Work

Wide Reach, Personal Service

No other rental company in the area puts more into getting your property seen. We run search engine campaigns, produce 360-degree virtual tours, post to YouTube, and run direct mail and print campaigns alongside our digital presence. But exposure only matters if the booking goes smoothly. We offer 24-hour service to guests and owners alike, so when something comes up at 9pm on a Friday, someone picks up. We've been doing this long enough to know that the small things, a quick answer, a clear check-in, a house that matches its photos, are what guests remember.

Where We Work

Our Three Biggest Destinations on Cape Cod

Ocean Edge

Brewster, MA

Ocean Edge

Our largest portfolio by far. Ocean Edge is a private resort community on Cape Cod Bay with pools, a golf course, and over 30 properties ranging from one-bedroom condos to multi-room townhouses.

Harwich

Mid-Cape, MA

Harwich

Four harbors, Nantucket Sound beaches, cranberry bogs, and a walkable village center in Harwich Port. A quieter stretch of the Cape with a lot going on once you know where to look.

Brewster

Mid-Cape, MA

Brewster

Nickerson State Park, Breakwater Beach, and some of the Cape's best freshwater ponds. Brewster sits on the bay side and draws guests who want space, trails, and easy access to both coasts.
