Loved our stay in this charming, well-appointed home. Nothing beats waking up on a beautiful summer day, going out to the deck and seeing the ocean. We enjoyed being within walking distance of great beaches, appreciated all the top notch amenities (nice kitchen, gas grill, washer/dryer, great shower, etc), and spent delightful evenings dining on the deck as the sun set. The owners anticipated every need, including providing shelves of good books. A comfortable, inviting home. Perfect Cape Cod vacation. show more show less

A wonderful vacation spot, walking distance to the beach, shaded streets for relaxed walking or biking. The house was perfectly set up, the kitchen was fully equipped, we had everything we needed and more. The back deck is amazing, the gas grill is top notch, and the patio set makes it a great spot for outdoor eating. The beach was so close, we loved it and spent a lot of time there! The outdoor shower was wonderful, it was great for getting the sand off the kids and the toys, and we all really enjoyed the outside shower.

We visited the science center that had wonderful displays and a butterfly house that the kids really enjoyed. We went to the nature preserve that had walking trails that brought you down a large set of stairs to an amazing beach on a serene bay. We did some shopping locally and enjoyed a wonderful, relaxed week. There is plenty to do nearby, lots of great restaurants and ice cream spots, or you can hop in the car and see the Cape sights. Fourth of July fireworks on the beach were outstanding -- we could see 5 sets of fireworks along the southern shore. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cottage and we highly recommend it. We'll be back! show more show less

Favorite vacation place!

Came here the 1st time in 1969. My parents brought us every year after for our summer vacation and it is the perfect spot for families. We rode our bikes all over and spent hours on the beach, a very short walk away. My husband and I spent our honeymoon here and we brought our children for vacations. It is located only a short way from a great bike trail. We love the Cape and especially the cabin! My sister in law thinks the large deck out back is the best attribute, but I also like the outdoor shower. The inside is cozy and has everything needed for a great vacation. The bedrooms have plenty of room and the beds are very comfy. My Mom and I love to shop both the malls and the thrift stores and have hit them all! Every year we spend at least one day in Chatham shopping. My husband and brother love to fish, so they bring their float tubes and hit the multitude of ponds for perch and bass. We always take one day and go to P-Town for a Whale Watch, people watching and shopping. The Cape Playhouse is a must. We have seen wonderful productions over the years and are looking forward to seeing a musical this summer. We have gone on a few fishing charters and would recommend one of the ones out of Chatham Bay as the best and closest. Don't miss the Music Stroll that's held every other Wednesday all summer long in Harwich Port. It's free and there's music for everyone. Beaches are wonderful on the Cape. If you don't mind a little seaweed the beach near the cabin is great, but Chatham Lighthouse Beach is nice and there are certain days that they let you go up the lighthouse. It's not that far to get to the National Seashore and their museum is fun to go through! Sunday after brunch at Brax Landing (great food) we always head up the Wellfleet to the flee market located at the drive-in. We have to go to the Weatherdeck for a lobster roll and our annual mini golf match even now that we don't have kids around. Have had great experiences at Captain Frosty's on Rte 6 and Lands Ho in Orleans, but usually we just grill on the back deck and spend our evenings playing cards and games. I would recommend this property to anyone and everyone. Have so many great memories and am looking forward to many more here!
