***** 5/5
Ideal Orleans Vacation Spot!
This lovely home is exactly as described - clean and spacious allowing for privacy even with a large group. The kitchen is large and extremely well equipped and very organized - great for cooking for a crowd. The dining area adjoining the kitchen is well set up to handle overflow - with six bar stools at two counter seating areas in addition to the dining table. The outdoor deck is also a nice location for hanging out. Due to the multi-level design of the house, the bedrooms are all separated from each other ensuring privacy for all. The house is extremely well located for all that Orleans and the mid-Cape have to offer. We enjoyed the short walk or bike ride to and from Crystal Lake for our daily swims as well as biking to the beach and other nearby attractions. Although the house is on a fairly main road, it is set back and landscaped such that it feels very private. The owner is a delight to deal with. We had a wonderful week here with our family and would definitely return again!

Wonderful stay and this spacious home, lots of sunlight and extremely well stocked! Linens provided
We so enjoyed this property, such a spacious home with lots of sunshine, extremely well stocked and beautifully decorated. Close to two lakes and close to a number of beaches. Loved all the board games, too! Having our linens, bedsheets and towels all provided made for such a nice and easy trip! Mary Ellen even provided extra sand chairs and boogie boards to be used as we needed them. Weber grill who is in excellent condition. Highly recommended!

Well Done
I've never seen a rental as well supplied. The floor plan had 4 bedrooms on 4 separate levels which assured private space and quiet. The social areas were large and well-appointed. The kitchen and outdoor grill allowed for the family to eat well at home or sample the local cuisine. Found two great places: LandHo and Mahoneys.....thank you for a great vacation.

Most perfect rental home imaginable!
We rented this incredibly lovely home because my daughter was getting married on the Cape and we wanted a home where our adult children could stay with us but still work remotely in the days leading up to the wedding. This home has the perfect layout for a larger group because there are different levels with different areas for privacy but then also great space to all be together. The house was amazingly well equipped with everything one could possibly want or need. The kitchen is awesome and we were able to enjoy some home cooked meals so we didn't need to go out every night for dinner. The house is kept in great shape and was very clean. It's in a fantastic location and is a quick, easy drive to shops, other towns, etc. I can't recommend this amazing house enough and we would definitely stay here again!

Great house and location
House was very spacious and updated with an awesome kitchen and living room spaces. The location was great, road was busy but walking distance to a nice small beach on a lake and a boat launch onto a salt pond. Close distance to stores and beaches.

Family reunion
The house was clean and beautiful. It has about 5 floors so can be be a bit difficult for older people and dogs. However, it was perfect for a combination of people working, couples wanting privacy, and comfortable areas for various games and activities! Location was very central to town and beaches.. Nearby lake was perfect for a morning swim! And thank you Mary Ellen for allowing our well behaved dogs. We all had a great time!

The location, the new bathrooms and bedrooms and the kitchen amenities were our favorite features . The home has beautiful decor in every single room. We appreciated that we could bring our dog and cook and enjoy home made meals in the very well appointed and gorgeous kitchen - dining area .

Great family stay
Very nice property central to everything. Spotless clean, layout is great for large families. Kitchen and dining area are superb. Pictures of place are 100% accurate. Everything worked well. Beach chairs, toys and towels were a big plus. Lots of games for families and kids to enjoy.

Great vacation rental
Immaculately clean, spacious, well-stocked and completely comfortable! We had a wonderful 2 week stay. This house is very nicely updated (new bathrooms and state of the art new kitchen) and furnished with comfy seating for many. It was immaculate, cool w/ central AC, well-organized, and has every thing a home needs to function smoothly. Everything you need is there! Not your average cape rental at all! Location is great for easy and quick drive to bay or ocean, town or access to nearby freshwater ponds which were great for swimming after a day at the beach. Driveway is blind, and a little scary getting in or out but we had no issues. I highly recommend!

Perfect vacation home for two families
This home is beautifully appointed and fully stocked. It doesn't feel like a summer home with cheesy decorations! We were able to cook meals— including large pots and pans if you're cooking for extended family. It was a great spot for my family and my sister's family with different levels. They even had a small area for basketball which the kids loved! The deck is a great spot for morning coffee. The main living room is almost entirely surrounded by glass walls which gives the space an open, pretty feel. I wouldn't recommend this to folks who have difficulty with states (it's five levels), but we were really pleased with the home. It's close to shops and beaches in Orleans. Nauset beach is five minutes away and gorgeous. I'd love to come back next year!

Excellent house for 2 families vacationing together!
Loved the split-level design! 2 living areas for 2 families with a shared kitchen/dining room. House was well stocked with everything you need! Very quiet neighborhood, but not too far away from everything.

Great family reunion house!
We have rented many houses over the years but hands down this was the best equipped! The kitchen was perfect for the many meals we cooked. We could all gather around the dining table, which extends for larger groups, for meals and games. The yard was perfect for our badminton set and the basketball hoop added extra fun! The nearby lakes are beautiful. Only caveat would be that the house has a lot of stairs if that's a concern for anyone. Even though the house fronts Monument Road it was very quiet. The deck with BBQ overlooks lawn and trees. Absolutely recommend!

A great well-maintained vacation home close to all amenities.
We absolutely loved this house that is a quick jump to two fresh water lakes and a quick ride to two different saltwater beaches. We (my 11 year old son and wife) rented this house with another family (of four) and we completely loved it. We grilled out on the back patio each night, sat out for coffee every morning and played in the back yard (basketball, and we brought beanbag boards and bocce balls) Each room has its own TV and the upstairs above the kitchen had privacy for my son to get away from the babies in the house. We hope to stay aging here possibly next year. Thank you for the accommodation with our lab also Mary-Ellen. Definitely recommend.
