About this property

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

Great house in a great location

We enjoyed our stay at this well appointed house. It has everything you need for a great vacation. We rented bikes from Dennis Cycle and they delivered. We liked Hardings Beach but also took the Beachcomber water taxi from the fish pier twice and went to Coast Guard beach twice (not on our bikes). We loved Macs for dinner as the food was great and it was so close to the house! The house is very private and the neighborhood is quiet, a nice reprieve from the bustle of downtown Chatham. We will definitely be back!

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.

Chatham Cottage

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.
