The house was very nice. The porch was perfect for outside dining. The property was peaceful and quiet despite being on a busy road. There's a small beach within walking distance and it's a short drive to Chatham, Nauset, etc. The only issue was that the outdoor shower wasn't working. Otherwise, a lovely stay.

Just a short drive to Harwich, Chatham and downtown Orleans. Beautiful home and spacious and separated enough for a big family. We loved roasting marshmallows outside in fireplace, chasing bunnies in the yard and enjoying family time in family room and big kitchen. We’ve stayed at several houses over the years but this has been our favorite by far. Kitchen fully stocked for anything you could imagine. We walked on shoulder to the beach several times and watched the horseshoe crabs and boats in the bay. Excellent. Oh and the beds are actually comfortable and linens are quality! Unusual for a rental.

The house was large, clean and located on a very nice lot that provided enough distance so that the busy road it was located on never resulted in a noise problem. The interior was exactly as it appeared in the listing. It was very comfortable and had all the amenities needed for a nice relaxing stay. As a previous guest pointed out however you could not walk anywhere as the shoulder was quite narrow. In my opinion it was not suitable for biking either. Two inconveniences were the outdoor shower did not work(there was a hose you could use for sandy feet) and despite assistance from a local agent we were never able to get the tv to work with Google Home.

The house and grounds are very nicely kept and cleaned. Warning, however - this is walk to absolutely nothing unless you want to risk your life walking down a narrow road with no sidewalk and practically no shoulder. You will have to drive everywhere. I wouldn’t even want to bike it. Especially with small kids. Also, the A/C doesn’t work. They have thermostats and vents which work about as well as props, honestly. If it’s hot and you need relief, not the place for you. All that said, it is a nice house with lots of room and everything you will need. Great for a big family - I would recommend it but not when it’s hot out! Fix your A/C, owners!
