Gorgeous lake views
Adorable little lake cabin in the middle of Cape Cod. It felt like a lakes region getaway but there are also amazing ocean views and beaches minutes away. The location was awesome with town less than a mile walking distance away as well as food options right across the street. Small but comfortable and everything we needed for a young family of 4.

Exceptional cottage
The cottage was exactly as pictured and described. The sunrise was spectacular off the water from the backyard. Everything we needed for our stay was available to us. There are sidewalks on 6A, so you can walk/run. Restaurants, grocery store, plaza etc are within driving/walking distance. Looking forward to returning soon. nearby

ACCOMMODATIONS SATISFACTORY BUT NOT EXCELLENT
The location is fantastic, and the view of the cove wonderful, and a great porch area. It's a quaint, pretty property. However, it's a very tight space for four adults, and the beds are not good for people over 6 feet. We tried contacting the manager one evening to get instructions on lighting the fire, and didn't get a response, which can be very frustrating. The kitchen pots/pans are pretty minimal. Not sorry, enjoyed it, but a few reservations future guests may need to know about.

Total disaster. They are dishonest. I had a feeling it was gonna be a problem when he requested 3 sets of keys the day prior to arrival. I should have cancelled but felt it was too late to ruin somebody's travel plans. The housekeeper wanted to quit when she saw 5 cars and 11 chairs around the fire pit. I had to beg her to stay and I drove down 2 hours at 6am Saturday (checkout day) morning so I could get over the bridge before the traffic to help her clean up, which took us over 4 hours. Way too many people! We're not that type of party place. These "guests" should have spent the money to rent a big place with a big driveway and a big yard. But of course that's expensive and they were too cheap to do that. Also, they were dirty, food on all the floors and carpets, including the bedrooms. And of course they didn't even leave the poor woman a tip. We pride ourselves on being a clean comfortable place for reasonable people. I blame myself because I didn't vet them prior. VRBO doesn't like if if we cancel, but it would have been the right move in this case.

Quiet retreat
We stayed here with our 3 boys. It was the perfect place! Cozy, clean cottage with just the right amount of space needed because mostly we were outside! We loved watching the seals, swans, osprey, and great blue herons from the deck. The kitchen is great and we enjoyed the grill as well. The beds are very comfy! Tony is a very nice guy and quickly answered all of our questions. We’d love to come back next year!

Beautiful, tranquil,peaceful and relaxing!!
We absolutely loved the location in Orleans! It was so close to everything that you could walk to get anything you need! It was so peaceful watching the cove and all of the wildlife, sail boats and the fisherman harvesting oysters right in our front yard! Thank you , Tony! I hope to rent again next year and possibly get my sister to rent the cottage next door! We absolutely loved our trip to your cottage in Orleans!❤️

Wonderful small cottage on the water.
Very clean, adorable furnished in the nautical style. Bed was very comfortable with nice linens. Outside nicely furnished with table, chairs, gas grill and pit. Bathroom quit small, but workable. Walking distance to restaurants and grocery store. Overall a neat old fashioned cottage. We really enjoyed our stay there.

Show up unpack and relax...
Clean private convienient... when you sit on the deck or relax around the firepit you feel a million miles away, yet you are walking distance to just about everything, not to mention a short drive to everything the Cape has to offer.

The cottage is just right for a family of four or five. The view was fantastic! Quiet too!!😄
Even though the Cottages are just off of Route 6A there is very little automobile traffic noise when you are in the house or on the deck. It is easy access by foot or bike to many great locations in Orleans. The walk over to the windmill or to rent a kayak is all of about 2 minutes. The owner was very accessible and quite nice to deal with. I would recommend renting both cottages which are side by side for a small group of family or friends. Finally, the breezes off the water from the Nauset Beach inlet definitely make for a cool place to get away from work worries for a while.
