Kitchen was well-stocked and helpfully labeled. Could use a reorg, as it seems items have migrated to non-intuitive places over time (pots and pans were by the stove, the corner cabinet and the hall closet.)Master suite was lovely and we also loved the grill/patio set-up.

We enjoyed going on the Cape Canal Cruise. Learned a lot and saw an ocean sunfish!

Orleans is not beehive of activity, but it is close to whatever you likely want to do, so it’s a great place to stay. Oh, and there’s a Starbucks inside the Stop n Shop, in case you need one.

Orleans is quintessential Cape Cod. Great Bayside Beaches. Skaket at sunset was breathtaking.
