Gray Gables

Beautiful home from the 1800's, fully equipped for all your needs. Close to Nauset Beach and many restaurants, Need to be mindful of the super tricky stairs leading up to the 3 bedrooms especially if you have little ones or senior citizens or carrying anything like luggage or a porta crib up or down these stairs. The floor are uneven as well not a problem for young folks lol

Enjoyed a great week, in a fantastic location, at this super interesting historic home. Everything we needed was provided and we enjoyed having so much space. Thank you!

This charming historical home has a rich history, which one could read about in the Guest Information Notebook. We were vacationing attending a family reunion and originally have booked another property prior last September and in April the host claimed they double booked and we were kicked out of that property. That being said we quickly found this property and it was much better my family has been coming to Cape Cod every summer since we were kids Staying in my grandmother’s vacation home that was taken over by my parents and sadly we had to sell our beloved family home 8 years after our parents passed. We were so grateful to have this property. The trees are amazing and said to date back to when the home was originally built in the mid-1800s if you love history and a cozy house with character, you will love Gray Gables! Plenty of room, great amenities, quirky areas too but we loved the big yard very quiet and close to everything. Orleans has to offer.

We stayed at Gray Gables for 5 days/4 nights and enjoyed our time. We are a family of 5 including 3 teenagers who each loved having their own bedroom. The pictures of the house are true to life, things were exactly as shown on the website. The house is a little dated (older bathrooms, non-level floors, etc.), but was very clean and everything was functional. It reminded me of visiting my grandparents house when I was young. The kitchen is more modern and great for making meals. The outdoor porch table and seats were clean, and we used the grill a couple times as well. The exterior of the house shows its age a little with peeling paint, etc. The house is set back from the road with many mature trees - it's a very quiet, peaceful, shady setting. The house location was great as it's only a few minutes drive from town and the rail trail. There is a short hiking trail in the backyard, and the neighborhood is good for walking/jogging. We really enjoyed our stay!

Enjoyed our stay at this historic home in a great location in Orleans. Loved hiking the conservation trails to the pond right out the back door! Really appreciated that linens and basic toiletries were provided! Only drawbacks are the super steep stairs to the three second floor bedrooms (would need to be extra careful with little kids or older adults). Also note there is no AC in those upstairs bedrooms - just fans. We got a cooler week in the 70s so we’re okay-but it would be really warm in mid summer.

The house was great for our family vacation. We're not frequent beach goers so it was really convenient having all the extra beach amenities provided with the property. The grounds were beautiful and there was plenty of space. The floors were very uneven, so if that's a concern, be aware of that. Other than that, we would highly recommend this location!
