Spacious, family friendly home located within walking distance to Rock Harbor
4 Bedroom updated home located in Orleans with an in-ground swimming pool. House is a 4 minute walk to Rock Harbor. Rock Harbor is a quaint man-made harbor on Cape Cod Bay located on the border between Orleans and Eastham. Rock Harbor is a gem and offers visitors a beach to relax and gentle waters to swim. At low tide, the harbor turns into "flats" and creates miles of beach for clamming and combing. The sunsets at the harbor are not to be missed either.
The home is appointed with plenty of kitchen supplies. Bring your own sheets and towels.
House was clean and neat. Plenty of room for everyone and had everything we needed to have a pleasant stay. Loved the area and closeness to the beach. Host was very nice to deal with and had excellent recommendations for things to do around the area.
My wife, toddler son, and I took a long weekend at the Cape with a few of our friends. In total, we had 8 adults and 2 infants/toddlers (10mo & 2yo)--the space perfectly accommodated everyone!
The location is fantastic--away from busy streets, but within walking distance to Rock Harbor Beach/Marsh--which is great for a morning/sunset stroll.
The amenities were as-advertised.
A chef's kitchen there is not, but there are plenty of spices and enough pots/pans/cooking utensils to whip up meals for a group.
The furniture is fine, though worn (one of the bar stools in the kitchen had a staple sticking out which cut my friend's leg). Otherwise, there is a minimum of other conveniences, such as hand soap. If you're ok with bringing your own bed sheets and pillow covers (we were), you should be satisfied.
There is a hot tub on site, but we were told it is not operational (it wasn't advertised in the listing, so we weren't even really expecting one).
The property is well-maintained and clean, though there are spiderwebs in most corners of the house.
Communication with the host (Monica) was straightforward with quick responsiveness.
