Idyllic Pond Front Home in East Orleans! Fabulous deck!
East Orleans Vacation Rental - ID 28481

This was our fourth summer staying at Marie and Lou's Pond House and we hope to come again next summer! The house itself is very comfortable and has all the amenities. (I like to cook and can always find what I need!) The deck is particularly lovely. We eat most of our meals out there and love to watch the birds and the light on the pond. My mother-in-law, who is in her late 80s, can't get to the beach much anymore, but loves to enjoy the sun on the deck. Another attraction of this spot is that we can ride our bikes about 2 miles to the terrific local beach—Nauset Beach—or take a longer bike ride to the National Seashore. It is great to be car-free on the Cape! Marie and Lou have been wonderful. They have provided loads of info about places to go and things to do and are very responsive if we have a question or a problem. I can't recommend this spot highly enough.

This Cottage was everything we hoped for in coming to Cape Cod. The cottage is very well equipped, well-maintained, clean, and situated in a wonderful location. Sitting on the deck overlooking the pond was a relaxing vacation in and of itself. Cottage is close to the beach, restaurants, bike trails, and anything else you will want to do on the Cape. The owners, Lou and Marie, are very kind and attentive, but not intrusive. Highly recommend!

Marie and Lou are absolutely delightful. The Pond House is lovely, well appointed, relaxing, comfortable, and clean. The location is great - close to everything. I can't say enough great things about my stay. Thank you for such a wonderful Cape visit!!

We could not get over the gorgeous view from "The Pond House." Lou and Marie greeted us upon arrival and were so welcoming! Their interest and hard work in providing a lovely stay for vacationers is obvious. We enjoyed two weeks of sunny, gorgeous days (only one rainy day!). The house is comfortable and well appointed. We certainly hope to return next year!

This was our 12th year going to the Cape and renting different houses. This was by far our favorite. The house was immaculate and looked better than the pictures. The property had beautiful flowering bushes and was well maintained. We loved the deck and outdoor shower. Every night we ended with playing cards on the deck listening to nature sounds. The owner was very helpful with any questions we had. We finally found a house we want to go back to every year to come!

Lou & Marie
Can you believe this is our 5th year in this beautiful home we call "ours". You guys take the best care of us.

You are like family on the Cape – Will stay in touch and see you July 2017.

We all had a shower in the rain. The best.

Love you both
Sherry, Wendy, Biondi & Megan

Lou & Marie ,

This is our second year at the pond house and we had a blast. This house and Orleans make this our best vacation of the year. We will be back again the same week again next year.
You do such a wonderful job of taking care of your place. The furniture and amenities are always top notch. We truly love the pond, it is the best view in Orleans.
Hope you both enjoy your year and hope to see you again in 2016

Thank you for sharing your home with us, it was very relaxing. The pond view was spectacular. Orleans is our favorite place, we had a great time.

Perfect and relaxing
This home was absolutely perfect for my family. The owners are attentive and have done beautiful renovations throughout the house. The new deck has a gorgeous view of the pond was our favorite place to relax at the end of the day. The location is close to everything yet in a quiet neighborhood. We will definitely return to this house!

This Year Was Better Than Last
Fantastic week! This was our second year staying at this wonderful home. Lou and Marie are just amazing. We actually feel like a part of their family. The house is so comfortable and clean. We love the new deck and new shower, can't wait for next year. It is so easy to travel to town and the ocean. Our granddaughter just loves her "new home." My sister came from IL. this year to enjoy the Cape and could not believe how relaxed she was. Just sitting on the deck having a beautiful dinner that we cooked on the grill and catching up on many things in our lives. Great stores, shops and wonderful people in Orleans. Who could ask for more. Marie and Lou, thank you for sharing your beautiful home on the pond. We will see you next year. :) Sherry and Family

Cozy, Comfortable Cape Cottage!!
Lou and Marie made this rental very special as it was clean, cozy and updated. I loved all the hard wood floors through out the house. The new deck over looking the pond was a great addition. If it got to buggy (which it never really did) you can still relax on their screened in porch. The updated kitchen cabinets and walk in shower was a nice plus, as well as the outdoor shower. The closeness to Nauset Beach was good as well as the little main street with the ice cream shop. Our boys love the Cape Cod Baseball and their games were played about 3 miles down the road which makes for a free fun night out. As Lou and Marie know, if we just had not inherited a Cape house Mid Cape we would definately be return renters! Thanks again!!

Perfect getaway, convenient to everything, but private and quiet
The description of this property does not do it justice. It was clean, well maintained and outfitted with everything you need. There are views of the pond from everywhere; living room, dining room, kitchen, breezeway and the wonderful new deck. You are only a few miles from town for shopping or dining. The beach is a mile away. We had a wonderful 2 weeks here and look forward to an opportunity to return. Thanks, Marie and Lou.

Most Charming Little Home
My family had the best time. We stay in East Orleans every year and this was the best week spent ever. Our home was so clean and charming and we wanted for nothing. Uncle Harvey's Pond was so peaceful and the neighborhood was very quite. (Just what we needed) Easy to get everywhere we wanted to go. Our granddaughter (age 3) loved the outdoor shower and when time to come home did not want to leave her new house :) Thank you, Lou and Marie!

Wonderfully peaceful
Our stay at Uncle Harvey's Way was wonderfully peaceful. The house itself was clean, charming and updated which made our stay comfortable. The WI-FI was on the fritz but the owners were very gracious and concerned that this did not deter us and it did not. There were plenty of local activities to keep us busy. The location was convenient to beaches and the center of town. Overall our stay was great, a perfect girl trip!

Fall Stay at Pond House
We stayed at this home in early October, 2011, and had a wonderful time. The house was clean, neat, and had everything we needed to cook for ourselves. We especially enjoyed sitting outside in the evenings or mornings and watching the wildlife in the yard and on the pond. We heard screech owls hooting at night and frogs calling. We had fun watching the birds in the area too: catbird, Carolina wren, belted kingfisher, common yellow throat, and others. It was very quiet at night which we really appreciated. We'd recommend this rental to friends and family.
