About this house rental
Light filled, four bedroom, 2½ bath (plus outdoor shower), fully air-conditioned house with fabulous close-in water views and steps from swimmable private dock. The house is surrounded by water for fantastic panoramic saltwater views and set on a promontory. It also has wonderful gardens and a grove of cedar trees.
This lovely home overlooks Meeting House Pond whose glimmering salt waters flow to outer Nauset beach, Chatham and beyond. Nearly all windows front tidal meetinghouse pond capturing its awesome dawns and silver moon ascents. Watch fishing boats depart, ducks glide by, hear flocks of geese and gulls call out. Radiant light gilds each room lending special ambiance to a perfect summer retreat. Treasures of this Cape Cod jewel are too numerous to mention but here are a few:
It’s so pleasant to breakfast, looking at the water, in its sun-drenched country kitchen with attached greenhouse or enjoy the open, waterfront dining room or breakfast on the patio overlooking the water
Relax in its serene living room and gaze at the water and enjoy your surroundings. Dream in the pristine master bedroom to the lull of lapping tides and enjoy the gorgeous water view. On the lower floor, you might like the large, comfortable entertainment center that boasts a large flat screen TV and unique collection of DVD’s.
If feeling energetic, untie your kayaks from the dock and head down river to Pleasant Bay and Chatham’s waters.
On a private road, down a long driveway and hidden from view, all this is to be found a short stroll from the very heart of wonderful East Orleans Village with its famous farm market, shops, gourmet and casual restaurants (including wonderful pizza, dessert, deli and homemade ice cream stand) and so close to Nauset Beach--an easy walk to everything but private enough that you're in another world! A true get-away. Have a glorious vacation!
Extra amenities:
-- Flagstone patio, gas grill
-- Luxury outdoor shower for both adults and children
-- Convenient, large, separate laundry room with water view
-- Charming marina nearby. This IS a Hidden Waterfront Paradise!

We loved the house but had a bad week of heat, rain, icy ocean water, and one week wasn't enough. We have a annual family gathering to celebrate a "Universal Birthday" and we have rented in Orleans for years. Our previous house was much smaller so this year I decided to splurge and this house was just what we all wanted. We had a great family gathering and the house just fitted us all.

Wonderful, tranquil location within easy walk of excellent local store, ice cream stand and restaurants. The house has a lovely back yard overlooking the small harbor, with immediate water access for swimming and kayaks. Kitchen is well organized and complete, great for anyone that appreciates such things. Host is communicative, supporting and helpful. She mailed us a forgotten item immediately after we vacated, thanks again Lisa! Would stay again.

The house was in a very convenient location for walking into town & driving to other towns . The view & outdoor atmosphere was absolutely breathtaking at any time of day or night . Ideal for cookouts . The out door furniture was ample for a family to enjoy outdoor dinning . The kitchen was fully loaded with every utensil to have casual or gourmet meals & fancy cocktails . Being an older home it didn’t have a master bathroom . Overall our experience with a family of 6 adults & two children ages 8 &12 was lots of fun . The boys especially enjoyed the kayaking & water access . It was a lovely expience .

Vacation home is spacious, and located right on Meeting House pond. It sits atop a hill and the view of marina is spectacular. The house itself is very dark and rooms are spread out such that my niece didn't want to stay with us because the house felt "spooky". She didn't want to be downstairs or in small room off kitchen. One of my sons slept at his cousin's place because his allergies were bothering him (mold?).
The 1940s or 1950s home is tastefully decorated with antiques, and original bathroom floor and fixtures, but the mildew smell that greets you at the front door stays with you all week. The kitchen was hard to use - way too many dishes piled into a cupboard, and nothing in pantry but salt, pepper, and someone's old can of icing. I have rented many homes in this area, and was surprised that there were no spices or basics like olive oil. I usually do a lot of cooking, but didn't feel at home in this kitchen. Many of the dishes needed to be washed before we could use them - it was like someone had rinsed them, but not scrubbed them clean. The appliances were clean and functional though.
The house is within a short walk to a market, a pizza place, and Sundae School ice-cream. The house is about two miles from Nausset beach and traffic is very heavy (not safe for kids to bike).
Overall, we have stayed at newer, nicer places for a lot less. I understand that being on the water is a big plus, but in my opinion this home is overpriced and I am sorry to say we would not opt to stay here again.
