12 Arey's Lane, Orleans

Our family rents a house at the Cape for a week every summer. We've stayed in 4 other houses before 2022 which was our first year at 12 Arey's Lane. We love this house and were happy to return this year.
My husband and I have two adult children and 5 grandkids ages 7-15 who love this time together as much as we do.
A few reasons why we may look for a larger house next year:
There may be 2 additional kids and one additional adult next year.
My son and his wife were in the basement bedroom this year and found the beds there to be significantly uncomfortable.
We could use a much larger ( or additional ) refrigerator/freezer as we bring most of our own food and the existing fridge has limited space.

Here's why other should enjoy this house:
10 minutes from Nauset Beach - our family's favorite beach by far.
Also located close to the Orleans Cardinals Field ( a fun place to bring a picnic and enjoy a baseball game - and it's free!)and not far from Stop and Shop and TJ Maxx.
Orleans is kind of in the center of the Cape so getting to P town or towns closer to the mainland is not excessively difficult.
We contacted the property manager for a minor issue and received a very prompt response and resolution.
Just down the road from the house is a pond where you can do kayak and paddle board tours with guides in the evening (the paddle boards and kayaks have lighting along the bottoms. This was such a hit with our kids last year that we were looking forward to doing it again - unfortunately our two reservations needed to be cancelled due to weather.
There is an outdoor shower that the kids (and adults) love and it gets lots of sand off before coming in the house.
The yard is large and the kids love playing out there.

Manager's Response

The space is perfect, the location is centrally accessible-love it. We want to stay again! We appreciate you sharing your home with us. Being from different areas we came for a family vacation and it was perfect. This is a space that is well loved and that adds to the experience for sure.

beautiful, well-furnished home with plenty of space for family - large yard, nice deck, location very close to many of our favorite beaches and activities.

Manager's Response

The home was warm and inviting, with plenty of space for guests and activities. It was well stocked with a variety of kitchen tools, games, and outdoor gear. I loved all the puzzles and made use of the table in the downstairs bedroom. The house is in a great location, very close to the pond, several beaches, and towns. A day trip to Provincetown is a breeze. Cape Cod is the perfect getaway from NYC, and I enjoy it more with every visit. Staying at this property made it even more enjoyable. as you tell the thought and effort they put into making their guests stay easy and comfortable. I will certainly be returning to this property and can't wait to make more wonderful memories.

Loved the house and everything inside. We had some lovely dinners outside and this place was big enough for tow families and loved it.

We had my husband, me, and 3 adult children and their significant others. We had a wonderful time. The kitchen is very important as we all love to cook. We were very happy with how well-equipped it was. Central air is amazing! as was the deck, where we spent most of our time. I might suggest a table where we could do a puzzle. We brought 2 kayaks, but having 2 more was amazing. My son also brought 2 paddle boards so we could send six out on the water at one time. The only disappointment is that we couldn't swim in the pond.

There were 9 of us and we all felt there was plenty of space

Family from MA and VA came here to get together. We could have explored this area for a week alone! Cape Cod is a treasure. This house is sweet with everything you need. Great location close to beaches, pond, shopping and conservation areas. Our guys liked to hike the conservation areas and Skaket Beach is the best! Orleans is one of my favorite towns of the cape. We will be back to the Cape, hopefully here!

After a long period of not seeing family in 2020 due to the pandemic, our family reunited on the cape and enjoyed our time at the property. We were able to find everything in your home to make out stay enjoyable with family from the North Shore.
