KEY Curation Notes

Bay-side Orleans on a private acre with an 18'x36' heated saltwater pool, Skaket Beach 1.1 miles away and the Cape Cod Rail Trail under half a mile. The layout is genuinely well-considered — main level has the king primary suite, open kitchen/dining/living, and a three-season sunroom with skylights flowing directly to the pool patio.
Three-season room with vaulted ceiling and skylights off the dining room is the indoor-outdoor connector — flooded with natural light and shaded during the hottest part of the day, it's the kind of space that gets used constantly on a Cape vacation. The pool patio has lounge chairs, casual dining seating, and gas grill.
Upstairs has two additional bedrooms — one king and one bunk room sleeping four — plus a full bath with tub/shower. A lower-level TV lounge gives kids their own space. Total capacity of eight across four bedrooms.
Hog Island Brewing is 0.7 miles away, Orleans Center is 1 mile, and Skaket Beach is 1.1 miles — an unusually walkable or bikeable position for an Orleans property. The Rail Trail proximity is a bonus for cycling days.
Cooling is mini-splits on the main level and window AC units upstairs — worth noting for groups who prefer consistent climate control throughout. Rents Friday to Friday in peak season with a seven-night minimum. Linens included, beds made. KEY.co can arrange grocery delivery so you arrive fully stocked.
