Cape Cod mid-August stay

Wonderful landing spot for exploring the Cape Cod National Seashore. House is lovely with a private backyard and located on a quiet cul-de-sac. Bike path is nearby; short ride to town beaches. House has everything and hosts were a pleasure to communicate with.

Perfect location

The house suited our annual friend vacation needs perfectly. Great location to everything mid to outer Cape. We enjoyed easy access to the bike trails. Jay is very communicative. Very peaceful yard, where we saw bunnies and deer while the birds were chirping.

Good location , nice house

We had a lovely stay in this 2 bathroom 3 bedroom house. A little trouble checking in but owner was responsive and helpful when contacted. We liked the closeness to coast guard beach and use of washing machine and dryer. The house was well appointed and even had beach chairs and beach towels..

Perfect Cape Get away

This property is everything we wanted in a cape get away. The layout was good for a family and the location was excellent with easy access to both the bay and Atlantic side. We love the beaches on this side of the cape and really enjoyed our time. An unexpected bonus was the very nice backyard and deck that we very much enjoyed. The kitchen was well stocked and the provided bikes were very helpful in getting around. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating. The one very minor downside is that they do not provide sheets and towels, but they told us about this way in advanced and offered options for linen delivery.

A Home on the Cape

This property is a solid, clean, quiet and reasonably conveniently located. The owner provided ample information and communications with us and some of his hints we very helpful. Moreso had this not been our collective 8th or so visit to Cape Cod. I suspect we'll be looking for a place like this next year when summer is here.

This home provides a comfortable, relaxing stay

We wanted for nothing and hated to leave. Selfishly we’re reluctant to report how much we loved the house and its location for fear of competition to book it.

For us, this is a perfect rental.

Conveniently located in a quiet suburb of Orleans, the house is very clean and comfortable, fit for a stay any time of the year with A/C and heating. It is a pleasure to share it with a neighborhood rabbit and the birds in the pleasant backyard. Once here you don’t want to leave.

Comfort, Peace and Beauty

Jay and Helga made sure that all questions were answered and all needs were met. Their home is in a lovely, quiet neighborhood, brief drives to the best of mid- to upper Cape jaunts. Tons of great restaurants, store, hikes, beaches - not to mention nearby rail trail - made this one of our favorite vacations. Even when the weather was dreadful, staying in to read, cook, lounge about their comfy place made for some of the best reflections about our stay. The master bedroom was the perfect place to secret away when needing a brief hiatus from (beloved) company. Three weeks went by in the blink of an eye. Never stayed in Eastham before, but wouldn't hesitate to come back to make more wonderful memories.

Cozy getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed the long Columbus Day weekend in the house. This town is a great launching point to go to Chatham, Wellfleet, and Orleans. The house that everything we needed. Great kitchen to cook up everything we picked up at the Orleans farmers market and seafood market. Fires in the fireplace kept us cozy at night. We loved the master bedroom upstairs with its own bathroom. We spent much time sitting in the Adirondack chairs in the backyard. And as always we love the outdoor shower! The owners gave us great tips on beaches and we visited them all. Overall a wonderful trip!

That Old Cape Magic

When we visit the Cape, we come to ride our bikes and eat good seafood. Although we always look for a nice, affordable place, where we stay is less important to us than what we do. That said, this place added immeasurably to the enjoyment of our visit. Jay’s home in Eastham is perfectly located, close to the rail trail and excellent restaurants. The yard is large and pleasant to look at and relax in, either on the deck or two Adirondack chairs out on the lawn. The inside is spacious and clean, with tasteful furnishings and a well-supplied kitchen. We felt comfortable from the moment we first walked in the door. That Jay is proud of and cares deeply about the place is clear from the way he takes care of it, and from the pains he takes, including a mandatory phone conversation before occupancy, to make sure he gets renters who will appreciate and respect it. He then communicated via email, before, during and after our stay, to make sure everything was OK and that we enjoyed ourselves. Everything was, and we sure did.

Great Location!

Very charming and comfortable home - nicer than the pictures suggest. We loved the very well stocked kitchen since we are all cooks in my family! Upstairs master suite with bath has lovely updates. All the beds were comfortable. We usually stay in North Eastham near Wellfleet and were a bit concerned about this location, but as it turned out it was so convenient to be near the Orleans Stop & Shop (which I never knew existed!) and to discover Nauset Bay, lower parts of the bike path, and beautiful First Encounter Beach. The house is very private and quiet but close to everything. We would definitely return! Thank you, Jay, for being so attentive to all our needs.

Excellent Stay

We had such a wonderful week at this lovely house. The property was comfortable and impeccably clean. We loved hanging out in the backyard after a fun day at the beach. It was a great place to hang out ( beautiful and most importantly quiet)! The beach was a short bike ride or drive away and after our week we were very sad to leave. We would rent again in a heartbeat! -Jen and Family

The Perfect Cape House!

After spending our vacations the last few summers in Chatham and Brewster, I am so glad my family was looking for something closer to the National Seashore; because it led us to this house! Throughout the entire booking/pre-visit time, Jay and Helga were extremely informative and attentive. All questions were answered in a timely manner and a great deal of pertinent information was shared without even having to ask. The house itself (and it's location) is exactly what we have been looking for. Close to everything we want to do (oceanside and bayside beaches, shopping, restaurants and seafood stores, yoga in Chatham, golf in Harwich, etc.) and the house is equipped with so many useful things that other homes have not had (e.g. lots of hooks and towel bars in the bathrooms, wastebaskets in each bedroom, plenty of plates/glasses/silverware, etc.). This truly felt like a home away from home and we are hoping it is available when we visit again next summer. We highly recommend!
