Close to everything!!: Walking distance to casual and fine restaurants, coffee houses (the Hot Chocolate Sparrow is a 5 minute walk), galleries, shops, the Cape Cod Bike Trail (.2 miles), and Rock Harbor (.7 miles). Short drive to Skaket Beach (1 mile to the bayside beach) and Nauset Beach (3 miles to the National Seashore - on the ocean side). The Cape Cod National Seashore was voted one of the most beautiful beaches in America.

Many things to do!!: The National Seashore Center in Eastham offers many programs for families, as does the Audubon Center in Wellfleet. Several Summer Playhouses offer theater which changes on a weekly basis, such as the Dennis Playhouse, the Wellfleet Harbor Actor's Theatre (WHAT). There is a Farmer's Market on Saturday morning in Orleans (a short walk from the house), and frequent Art Shows. There are weekly summer band concerts at Nauset Beach, and surrounding towns, and for the kids (big and small) there is mini- golf located nearby. For sports fans, the Orleans Fire Birds, a Summer Cape League Baseball Team, plays regular games about one mile away. Rock Harbor offers deep sea fishing adventures and there is surf fishing at Nauset Beach. Whale watching is a popular activity in Provincetown. And, finally, the Cape is a bird watcher's paradise!

Please be aware that weather/storm refunds are not offered. Please arrange for vacation insurance for storm protection, if desired.

During the high summer months of July and August, please make your reservations for one or two weeks at a time, Saturday to Saturday. During June or September, longer or shorter periods of time are welcome.

Wonderful Stay!
Our party of three adults had a lovely time. The house can be a bit warm in the late summer but the fans make it much better. The house was clean and had everything we needed! Great location for walking to town.

Spacious and beautiful home, close to town
We'd recommend this rental for the following reasons. 1. The location was great - you can walk to town and easily access the bike path. 2. The house is very private and quiet, and almost feels like a tree house in the forest. 3. The inside of the house is very comfortable - plenty of space for our family of five. 4. The owner was very pleasant and quick to respond to any questions we had.

Impeccable and charming
Nikki and Warrens home is a vacation renters dream. A extremely well cared for home that is incredibly Charming and impeccable clean. gorgeous updated kitchen. Absolutely Gorgeous gardens and grounds. We loved the detailed woodwork trim, the bookcases and wainscoting throughout. The gleaming hardwood floors! The screened porch was ideal to sit with a morning Coffee. The beds were all comfortable (and I’m a bed snob!) the upstairs deck felt like being in a tree house! Super convenient area, close to town and various beaches. Absolutely zero issues. Nikki was terrific! We’ll be back!! Thanks Nikki!

Perfect family getaway
This was our second stay at this lovely home. Beautiful and well-maintained gardens, and the interior had the perfect set up for our family and au pair. With the parents’ and kids’ bedrooms upstairs, and the third bedroom downstairs, it was the perfect amount of privacy for all. Also loved the screened-in porch and second floor deck! The house is in a great location, close to Rock Harbor, Skaket Beach, and downtown Orleans.

Perfect home away from home
Nicki and Warren are very gracious hosts. Nicki called on the evening of our arrival to make sure we were settled in and that everything had gone well. The house is itself is just as described. It is tastefully designed and decorated. Child proofing was easy. The gardens and landscaping are stunning. The location is perfect with easy access to town, Skaket Beach, and Rock Harbor. The house is located on a main road, however it is set back from the road so it is very quiet and idyllic. I look forward to returning again next year.

Amazing stay at Rock Harbor Retreat!
We had a fantastic getaway at Rock Harbor Retreat! The house was immaculate, clean and beautifully decorated, and the gardens and grounds were well manicured! The kitchen had everything you'd need...microwave, dishes, silverware, toaster, coffeemaker etc. The house is very close to downtown, with plenty of great restaurants and shops and the beach is just a short distance. We're definitely planning another visit! Thank you so much for a wonderful getaway!
