What a fantastic property! My husband and I rented the house to celebrate my husbands 60's birthday, just the two of us. It was more house than we needed, but we didn't mind. Timothy was the perfect host and very accessible. The Cape-style house is in a lightly forested upscale beach community. Our trip was just after Labor Day, so neighborhood was mostly vacant and quiet. The home is nicely appointed with a warm, traditional New England style. While there, we wanted for nothing. The first floor king bed was super comfortable! Also, TV's at every turn if that is important to you. The house is incredibly spacious and very clean. Pool and hot tub were the highlight of the stay and the reason we booked. The back yard pool is nicely landscaped, clean and very private. The weather was cloudy, but the pool and hot tub were always warm and inviting with an evening water light show that was the bomb! It was a short walk to a rugged but beautiful beach. (You can take the recommended beach sand path if you are in good shape, otherwise follow the road.) We were only a short drive to Skaket Beach where we caught an amazing sunset. This house is a short drive to a great market, lots of great, mostly causal style resaturants . Orleans is a very gluten-free friendly area, if that is an issue for you as it was us. Our favorite was 3 Fools where we had the best GF pizza ever! Right next the miles of paved paved bike trails, which we biked, was our favorite coffee shop Hot Chocolate Sparrow. Even in the off season this place is hopping! Also, it is a short drive to Chatham which has a charming walk-about down-town. As with most VRBO rentals, make sure you ask about any lawn care and pool service schedules, so you don't get caught off guard by any arrivals for which you were not expecting. We forgot to ask ,but they were only there a short time. In conclusion, don't hesitate to book this gem of a property in a this great area! You won't be disappointed! We had a great week, and I'm sure you will too!
