Description

Description

This charming, modern, waterfront, air-conditioned cottage is located in the exclusive section of Orleans called Mayflower Point where the Namequoit River meets Little Pleasant Bay. The secluded cottage boasts scenic water views, quiet nights, and birds galore. The living space has A/C, ceiling fans in the main room and bedroom along with hardwood floors throughout, new appliances, and windows on all sides. The grounds around the cottage are full of mature trees, flowering bushes and plants -- beautifully landscaped. Settle into this wonderful vacation spot with plenty of closet space and a fully equipped kitchen.
The one level cottage has a wraparound deck off the living room accessible thru sliding glass doors and a second deck thru the bedroom slider to enjoy that cup of morning coffee. It sleeps only two, so you both can truly get away on your own. The cottage has high speed internet service, an HD flat screen TV with cable, and a DVD player. We are a ''green'' cottage with solar panels on the roof, natural cleaning products and a recycle program for tenants.

It is a 75 yard walk to the water where you can launch your kayak or paddleboard. Skaket Beach on Cape Cod Bay is 3 miles away, and Nauset Beach on the Atlantic Ocean is 4 miles away. Pilgrim Lake and Crystal Lake (both fresh water) are within walking distances of the cottage. The bike path in downtown Orleans is just 2.5 miles away.

Perfect Vacation Cottage

In one word this was a perfect cottage for us to stay in. The cottage is roomy, bright and exceptionally clean. We really liked Molly's beach themed décor. Enjoy breakfast or maybe an afternoon drink on the deck.

Close to everything we liked to do, swim in Crystal Lake, Nauset and Skaket Beaches as well as the town of Orleans. Convenient to Chatham and Wellfleet, also.

Best cottage we have rented in the 40 plus years we have been visiting Cape Cod.

Wow! Thank you for that great review. Given your history with and time on the Cape for all those years, yours is a highly regarded compliment. We are so glad you enjoyed yourselves (the weather helped!) and had such a fun time here. Hope we see you back next year. Enjoy the rest of your summer.

A Lovely Getaway!

This is a truly lovely place for 1-2 people who are looking for a peaceful, quiet, away-from-it-all setting, yet only a few miles from downtown Orleans. The photos on this web site are totally legit -- a clean, airy, light-filled cottage that will feel like a respite from it all. The owners are thoughtful and welcoming, and the cottage is very well-equipped. (Check the hall closet if you need a blender!)

Bring kayaks if you can; otherwise there is nearby swimming, biking, and trails for walking.

Just discovered: daily morning yoga in Chatham on the beach ($20), weather permitting. Ditto for Orleans, I guess! show more show less

Perfect Cape Cod Cottage

After 2 years it was wonderful to be back to our favorite cottage. It was what we needed...the peacefulness of Mayflower Pt...the birds singing..seeing the water..the quietness..all the things we love about this cottage.

Our hosts are the best...the cottage perfect..This is why we love this place..super clean..everything you need to cook in. Or minutes to restaurants...the beach..or strolling through Orleans...a perfect getaway!

Absolutely charming cottage

We have been visiting the Cape for over 50 years and especially the Orleans area. Mayflower point is a hidden gem and this studio cottage is perfect for two, young or old. Bring a kayak cause there is easy access to water. We saw wild turkey and even a coyote.

We would highly recommend this charming cottage for a quiet retreat...Thanks Molly and Kevin for sharing your little piece of heaven....

Wonderful peaceful week on the Cape!

This was our third stay at this charming cottage! The property is tucked away in a beautiful setting which was quiet with great views and a cozy comfy vibe. The owner Molly always makes a point to stop by and say hi, which is such a quaint welcoming touch! The cottage is completely equipped with everything you need for a great vacation stay. There are so many wonderful things to do in Orleans.

Charming Cottage

We've been vacationing at the Cape for 46 years and we have to share that this charming cozy cottage is the nicest place we have ever stayed. It was meticulously clean when we arrived, bright, airy and comfortable. We found everything we could need for a restful week and enjoyed the quiet, peaceful setting. We are grateful to have found you and hope to come back again.

Our Second Visit!

This is our second stay at this cottage on Mayflower Point. We were here for two weeks last August and are just finishing another two week August stay. We really know this property! This is a guest house on a lovely property right on the water. The house and grounds are immaculate and kept to a very high standard. Look at the location—on the water—easy kayak access right next door. Maybe ten minutes from Nauset Beach and ten minutes from charming downtown Orleans, BUT incredible peace and quiet. Mayflower Point is a private point of land—all the properties have large parcels of land and privacy. This is a quintessential Cape Cod retreat.

Clean, Quiet, Cozy

If you are looking for a clean, quiet, peaceful place surrounded by nature, this is it. Bring your kayaks. You can launch from the back yard into the Namequoit River and explore Little Pleasant Bay, Arey's Pond, Sampson and Hog Islands, the Pochet Inlet, Meeting House Pond and much, much more. Perfect for a couple, you'll have everything you need.

Clean Peaceful Cottage

We spent a week from July 27th to August 3rd. Everything was just like we saw on the site. The cottage is very functional, with nice quality equipment and well thought out. The cottage is surrounded by the nature and very peaceful. It's very near from everything, the beaches are close and we could swim in fresh water just by the cottage.

Quiet and Comfortable

2019 was my 4th time staying at this property. Obviously, I've tremendously enjoyed each visit. It's quiet, very comfortable and off the beaten path, but just a short ride to town and beaches. The very quiet bay behind the house - visible from the deck - is ideal if you bring a kayak/canoe. I finally met the owners this year - they live nearby - and they couldn't be nicer. Enjoy!

More About Molly￬
We have rented our guest cottage for the past 12 years, thru local Cape realtors and until last year thru VRBO. We have many repeat renters who keep coming back -- the best references a property owner could have. This is our first year with Weneedavacation. We stopped our listing on VRBO because of their new business practice of limited communication between owners and renters and their hidden fees. We believe that you should be able to communicate with a property owner to ensure the space is what you think it is and one you will enjoy on your vacation. We believe that if you love the outer Cape and all that is has to offer, you will enjoy Orleans, Mayflower Point, and our cottage. Our past reviews support our beliefs and we hope you will explore our listing.

What is special about this property?
All of our past renters would agree -- the greatest asset of our cottage is the peace and quiet where the sounds are mostly just birds. It is peaceful and beautiful with woods, water, and wildlife. We are tucked into a corner off the dirt roads of exclusive Mayflower Point and on the intersect of where the Namequoit River meets Little Pleasant Bay. The 100 yard walk to our landing where you can launch your kayak or canoe out to the Bay is ideal for early morning explorations. We think the fact that the cottage is modern, light, comfortable with windows on all sides and early morning sun helps to make a person feel surrounded by nature. The trees attract the birds and the wrap around deck with outdoor seating making the whole experience one of complete relaxation with comfort at an affordable price.

What is special about your town?
Orleans is the best of the Cape towns but then we are totally prejudiced. Orleans is centrally located on the outer Cape at Exit 12 -- the elbow of the Cape. Take a look on a map....we are surrounded by water and have Nauset Beach (ocean) and Skaket Beach (Cape Cod Bay). Those plus Town Cove and many town landings affording a variety of salt water experiences. We have Rock Harbor for beautiful sunsets and a bevy of local charter boats where you can fish for stripers and blues. Our downtown area and East Orleans have many wonderful restaurants to enjoy along with some unique shopping. We are only 30 miles to Provincetown and only 6 miles to The National Seashore entrance. Downtown Orleans has the Cape Rail Trail, an 18 bike path where you can easily go in either direction -- toward its beginning in Dennis or its end in Wellfleet. We have local theatre, music, wonderful galleries. Orleans has it all!
