There’s 300Mbps Xfinity wifi, plus Roku-equipped TVs in both bedrooms. Mini-split heating/AC lets you customize each room’s climate. And the tankless water heater provides infinite hot water. Located in a quiet part of Orleans at the north end of Crystal Lake, close to downtown, you’re 2 minutes from public tennis courts at Eldredge Park, 3 minutes to the 25-mile rail trail bike path, and 6 minutes to Nauset Beach on the ocean or Skaket Beach on Cape Cod Bay. There’s a Super Stop & Shop 5 minutes north and a Shaw’s supermarket 4 minutes west, along with numerous restaurants and coffeehouses, boating, watersports, and bike-rental stores, gyms, and pharmacies within a 3-minute drive. Snow Library, the Orleans Firebirds’ baseball diamond, and the Academy Playhouse are all a 2-minute drive away.

Pillow protectors will be freshly laundered; mattress protectors, bedspreads, blankets, and quilts will not.

My young adult daughter enjoyed it, too. We made popovers in the kitchen to bring to a relative's house - kitchen even had muffin pans, so we were good to go. ##### Susan C. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon T. 14 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic place and location! The place was exactly as described and seen in the photos. Everything we could have needed and then some was in the house. Extremely quiet neighborhood was fantastic for sleeping. Everything in town was a 3 minute drive so the location couldn’t be beat. The lake was very clean and fun to swim out to the floating platform. We met some of the neighbors who were very friendly and welcoming. The outdoor shower was probably my favorite. Being able to be outside with total privacy and looking up at the trees was amazing. I can’t saw enough good things about this place. Andrew was super accommodating and gracious. If you’re looking for a place to stay on the cape, make this your spot. Orleans is one of my favorite towns on the cape and I now have a new favorite place to stay when I visit. ##### Jon T.

We just returned from our 1st trip to the Cape. The entire rental process was a breeze. The host, Andrew provided us with every single detail we could possibly want to know about the home and surrounding areas before arrival! Makes such a huge difference when you're in an unfamiliar location. We arrived to a clean space with plenty of towels, fresh linens on beds & nice little care packages in case you forgot any essentials. The location on Crystal Lake can't be beat. You could unpack and not leave the property. The use of shared paddle boards & kayaks was a fun bonus! Orleans is also a great jumping off point mid Cape for exploring the nearby towns. So many different activities in either direction. If we visit the Cape again, we would rent from Andrew without hesitation. Thanks for sharing your peaceful retreat, Andrew! ##### Chrissy O.

The condo community consists of a house, a cottage and two attached duplex townhouses. All share the grounds, including the lakefront property. The lake is lovely. Single person kayaks are provided, which we used and were a lot of fun. The unit has a patio with outdoor table and chairs and an outdoor shower. The unit was spotless and well equipped. Everything you might need in the kitchen was provided. Knives were sharp (a rarity in a rental). Full size washer/dryer and dishwasher were included. Sliders in living room opened to the patio and had a nice view of the lake. The two bedrooms were upstairs; one had a lake view. The unit was spotless and it was easy to communicate with the host. Highly recommend! ##### julie S.

This location in Orleans was 1/4 mile from Firebirds field and less than a mile from bike rental at Orleans Cycle adjacent to the Cape Cod Rail Trail. It was immaculate and fit our needs perfectly. Owner Andrew was readily available to all our needs. The pond is amazing although we only enjoyed it from the dock. Great place for a swim! One warning, if you have cranky old knees, bring your hiking sticks to get up and down the hillside! ##### Susan R.

Served as our base of operations for our tours of Orleans, Chatham, and P-Town. Did get a chance to fly fish using the canoe and picked up 6-7 yellow perch, but zero recently stocked rainbow trout.
