Fully Updated Chatham Cottage Near Hardings Beach

Welcome to our entirely renovated 'old Cape' cottage, with a sunny, open floor plan, brand new appliances and furnishings, washer/dryer and central air. After the beach, rinse off in the private outdoor shower before relaxing on the sunny patio.

The Space:
Create cherished family memories in our lovingly renovated cottage. Designed for today's living while retaining its 'Old Cape' charm, the sunny, open spaces and updated amenities will allow you to effortlessly enjoy your vacation. Available year-round whether to relax at the beach, to celebrate holidays, or just as an off-season get away.

Comfortable living space encourages everyone to gather for a spirited game of Chathamopoly or to snuggle in for a night at the movies.

The gourmet kitchen features a breakfast island and is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, dishwasher, microwave, and professional cookware.

Each bedroom is uniquely decorated. There is an elegant couples retreat with a queen bed. A bright room with two twin beds that celebrates the beach cottage theme. Finally, feel like you're sleeping aboard a sailing vessel with the nautical themed twin over full bunk bed.

Keep the beach clutter and laundry contained in the back 'sandroom' with easy access to the outdoor shower that has both hot and cold running water.

Central heating and air conditioning keeps the cottage comfortable regardless of the weather.

A large bluestone patio right off the kitchen catches the warm afternoon sun and offers ample seating for entertaining. Fix a drink and unwind while cooking the catch of the day from the Mac's Seafood on either the gas or charcoal grill.

The large 1/2 acre lot is wooded on 3 sides, offering a fantastic sense of privacy, but the yard stays sunny and is great place for games or a round of tag.

For the security of our guests and the safety of our home, there is a single exterior security camera strategically positioned to monitor the driveway and front walk only. Guest privacy is maintained on the rest of the property. There are no interior cameras.

Guest Access:
Guests have access to a wide variety of indoor, outdoor, and beach amenities.

There is a well appointed gourmet kitchen with dishwasher, full-size washer/dryer, full-size tub and shower, 40' TV, cable, wireless internet, books, and games. The central heating and air conditioning has a programmable thermostat. All essentials like comforters/blankets, pillows, linens, bath towels, paper goods, and cleaning products are provided, but remember to bring your own beach towels.

Outdoors there is a large lawn for games, a sunny patio with ample seating and both a gas and charcoal grill, a covered front porch, and off-street parking.

For the beach there are several chairs, a beach umbrella, and umbrella anchor in the basement.

The Neighborhood:
The cottage is tucked away on a quiet, private street, but remains close to everything wonderful that Chatham and the Cape have to offer!

One of the best beaches on the Sound, Hardings Beach, is less than 1 mile away. Unique to this beach is sidewalk access from our cottage for a safe walk or bike ride. We are also just a short drive to the other beaches on Nantucket Sound, Oyster Pond, or School House Pond, which is one of the nicest fresh water ponds in the area.

For bikers it is easy to pick up the Old Colony Rail trail to Harwich where it connects to the Cape Cod rail trail that runs 22 miles from Dennis to Wellfleet.

The charming Main Street of Chatham Village is less than 2 miles east on Rte 28. Harwichport is a few miles west. Both favorite spots for a day of shopping or a night out.

House Rules:
First rule is to relax and have fun!

To continue to keep the cottage enjoyable for everyone we ask that you:
- Do not smoke
- Do not bring your pets (sorry, but we have allergies)
- Be respectful of our neighbors as several live there full time
- Dispose of all remaining food and place garbage in the bin before you depart.
- Place all dirty dishes in dishwasher, run the cycle and empty.
- Wash and dry all used linens and towels prior to check out
- Keep the cottage clean and organized
- Report any damages or concerns to the Owners so that we may address the issues

Check in is after 3:00PM
Check out is before 11:00AM

Great location close to Hardings Beach
This comfortable, three-bedroom home with an open floor plan was just a 20 minute walk to Hardings Beach and an 8 minute walk to Dunkin. The house was well stocked for our visit with opportunities to cook and dine inside or out. It offered all amenities for a beach vacation—games, books, puzzles, and an internet-enabled tv. Plus, thoughtful touches like totes for carrying towels to the beach. An outdoor shower is also available. It was incredibly hot the week we were there, and it was wonderful having an efficient central air system to keep things cool. The owner was quick to respond to all questions throughout our stay. Highly recommended for families or friends.

My friends and I enjoyed our stay at the Chatham cottage. Check in was super simple, the house is in a great location and is very clean. The house is stocked well with items to make your stay easy and enjoyable. The only thing my friends and I would’ve liked was a fire pit outside. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting again.

A Great Cape stay!
Mike’s house is extraordinary—clean, comfortable, well designed, and oh, BTW—he thought of everything. We all have had the experience of constantly looking for things we need/want while in a rental. This is the complete opposite experience—not only is everything you need/want right at hand, but you’re constantly finding things that make you say, “oh, yeah—that will come in handy!” If I named individual things, this would be 5 pages long…just take my word for it! In addition, it’s in a great location—set back from the road and kind of semi-secluded, close to a fabulous beach, every vacation amenity (restaurants, shopping, ice cream, coffee!) you could possibly want, AND only a short drive from other great towns with it’s own set of different and outstanding amenities. Top it off with Mike as an owner: explicit instructions on how everything works as well as great arrival and departure instructions, and rapid response to any question or problem. If you wanted a model about how to do vacation rentals: Mike has the secret…

Fantastic place for family
This was an excellent place to stay with our family. Mike was very communicative. He provided plenty of information about caring for the house and things to do or eat while staying. The house is on a quiet street with easy access to Hardings beach and the main road to downtown Chatham. Our family enjoyed our stay and will try to book here again if we are ever in the area for vacation again.

Memorable Stay!
This lovely cape cottage was perfect for our needs as a family of three! We loved the secluded feel of the home set off the road and surrounded by trees and beautiful landscaping. The house was super clean, well appointed, and nicely updated. The location provided easy access to downtown Chatham as well as Hardings Beach and was central to many other sites on Cape Cod. Mike was an attentive host with excellent communication. We hope to return!

Excellent location, clean property, all the necessities. We enjoyed sitting on the patio for breakfast or anytime and watching the bunnies, birds, squirrels and chipmunks. Centrally located on the Cape and made it easy to go north or south for day adventures. This was our second stay at this home.

Perfect Cape getaway
We had the pleasure of staying in this cottage over part of Labor Day weekend and couldn’t have been happier with our booking. The house is perfectly located for walking to the beach or exploring the walking trails by foot while also being a quick drive away from town if you need essentials. The back patio was the best spot to enjoy a cup of coffee before preparing for the day. Mike was easy to communicate with and his home had everything we needed to enjoy our weekend getaway.

Always perfect
This is our fifth year staying in this cottage, and we *always* look forward to coming back. It's the perfect size for our small family, it's nestled away with a nice outdoor space, and the inside never fails to be pristine, organized, and well-maintained. I'm a very picky person, so this is super important to me so I very much appreciate that this house feels like a loved and cared-for home and not a high-turnover rental. The town is also the best place to stay on the Cape in our opinion. Centrally located to all our favorite places to visit with our now, 11-year-old son.

My happy place!
This is my second stay at Mike’s place and it was just as stellar as before. I have stayed at many Homeaway (and now VRBO) places throughout the country for many years and the absolute pristine condition of this home makes this one of my very few top places to stay. They’ve thought of every possible thing you might need and what I also appreciate so much are the household supplies that are provided so that renters don’t need to stress out about gathering them. There was an issue with the both door locks due to the humid weather as well as normal wear and tear but the owners will be replacing the lock mechanism and key after my time there. Just a watch out that local vehicles on the street right off their private road can be traveling quickly up that street so keep an eye and ear out as you pull out of the private street. Highly recommend this peaceful and confortable home. Thanks Mike!
