Cute cottage, kitchen and sitting area is smaller than pictures make it out to be. Our family enjoyed it and we would stay again, the cottage could use a few updates, but overall great stay!

Great location but the property was old and tired. There were insects in the house. They offered to spray but we didn't want that while we were staying there. Again great location.

Hi Paul, I'm so happy you enjoyed the location of this home! It is so convenient to be able to walk just a half mile to Skaket Beach, my personal favorite bayside beach in Orleans! The value of this home is truly it's proximity to water, and while it is a little older, it's a classic Cape Cod cottage that provides an excellent value for it's location. I apologize for the inconvenience of the insects, unfortunately they are part of Cape Cod's natural habitat and to be expected in the spring. I do try to mitigate the impact on guests with non-toxic treatments. I'm so happy you were able to enjoy the location of this home, and I hope to host you again in the future! -Jacqui @ Del Mar

Lovely short stay near Orleans

Very pleasant stay in a great part of the Cape, just a few minutes drive from great beaches, restaurants and shops. The property was clean and comfortable with a nice yard. Small kitchen but well equipped and it served our purposes. Very responsive management company. Thank you.

Amazing location and adorable cozy home!

The property was clean and we couldn’t have asked for a better location. Such a short walk to the beautiful skaket beach where we spent most of our trip relaxing. The outdoor shower came in handy. The kitchen is admittedly small, but as long as you keep it to a minimum of 2 people cooking at once, it works great.

Nice Place to Stay

Cleanliness rating of 4 only because air conditioning units have mold growing inside them. Otherwise, home was very clean.

Cape getaway

Stayed for a few days before the busy Cape season started. We were able to walk to Skaket, but it was pretty cold and windy, so the beach wasn't inviting. Check-in was easy, house was clean, and the stay was comfortable. We happened to be there during a nor-easter and lost power. We would have appreciated more support from the host while we were in unfamiliar territory during the big storm.

This is a sweet house in a wonderful location but in need of better keeping and attention, likely from the management company. It is listed as including a washer and dryer, which it should not be. Both are in a dimly lit and dirty basement one needs to access via a dark and uneven staircase. I contacted the management company about this issue immediately and was told they would reimburse me for using a laundromat, send someone to clean up the pile that had been left and implied that it was just like many basements in Cape Cod, as if I were paying thousands of dollars and somehow missing the charm of being a local doing laundry in a dungeon. I will say that the agent I spoke with upon our return home was much more helpful that the first. The house was generally clean and was otherwise tidy. The AC units work well but do not reach the kitchen, which is fine if not cooking. The pretty sofa listed is smaller in person but fine enough to fit 3 for a movie. If you have children upstairs with the AC running, they won't be able to hear you as the units are loud, which is fine but worth mentioning. There were a number of spiders each day. On the positive side, the beds are very comfortable. Ample linens. The house is pretty and the location, as mentioned, is just wonderful. The outside shower is enjoyable and the area is neat. If I were the homeowner, I would get another agent.
Basement staircase.

There were a few safety issues- the stove got incredibly hot to touch everywhere and we had our 2 yo grandbaby with us. A few other issues came up and even though Del Mar attempted to rectify it was a huge inconvenience along with we had to reach out multiple times to get an answer! Our refrigerator died and they sent a backup that was placed in the garage but we lost some food and still haven’t been contacted about reimbursement though they did say they would so…. Also attempted to give us an apology bag with a note but had the wrong family’s name on it! We have been going to the Cape for over 34 yrs and this is the first time that we’ve had so many issues and the price of this house was too high even though in a great location! Del Mar needs to do better!
