Off season rate of $209/nite for Oct-May

Dryer works! Not well-ventilated but we were able to do laundry. Per reviews, the cottage can use a facelift but worked for our needs and actually mitigated stress with young kids given less pressure to keep it pristine. We did not use the basement space. Biggest issue was air conditioners need a cleaning, as there is presence of mold. Overall solid communication and check-in instructions. Be aware when booking that linens are not provided - we brought pillows, sheets and blankets.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Lily Pond House. However, there are some considerations for future guests. If you have allergies aggravated by a musty, damp environment, you may want to avoid using the basement pull-out couch. I would also recommend bringing your own pillows as the ones provided at the house are overdue for replacement. The house would benefit from a deep clean and some updates, although these issues did not greatly affect our stay. Our primary disappointment was the non-functional dryer. Having a washer and dryer was a top priority for us, so it was disheartening to discover that this has been an ongoing problem, of which we were not informed beforehand. Additionally, the absence of hot water in the outdoor shower was a letdown. Despite these setbacks, Claire was very responsive, and the property manager, Joan, was a delight.

Outstanding location! House is charming. Close to beautiful beaches, shopping, mini golf, restaurants, and more. On top of 5 star par 3 course, almost next door to full size course. Yard is huge, kids and adults enjoyed bocce, catch, swings, and more. Patio and porch are relaxing and comfortable. Fire pit a definite plus. Pond is a two minute walk from the front yard and the fishing is fantastic! Games, coloring books and crayons provided. Would advise bringing an air mattress if you plan on sleeping on the fold out couch downstairs. Ages 2 to 70 and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

I don’t usually write reviews, but I thought I would share so perhaps the owners would consider supplying a few more items. They did not supply any bed sheets, pillow cases, towels, kitchen towels, spices, trash bags. They have 1 full and 4 twin beds. I don’t even own 4 sets of twin sheets. I felt like I shouldn’t have to buy sheets in order to stay somewhere for 1 week. Sheets and towels are basic and SHOULD ALWAYS be provided. They also had many check out cleaning requirements including wiping down all surfaces in kitchen and bathrooms, sweeping all the floors (dustpan not provided), Wiping down the refrigerator, cleaning and putting away all dishes and making all the beds. I am all for being respectful and leaving a house in good condition, but I ended up spending hours in the morning cleaning. I didn’t even have a dust pan or towel to dry the dishes. I think the owners should consider supplying a few more things if they are going to charge over $200 a night. Just a thought. I would not go back and would not recommend especially if someone was flying into the cape.
