Chatham Pondside Home w/AC, Dock & Separate Cottage
Chatham Vacation Rental - ID 4700

This was our second time renting this property. We have 2 kids and love the water access off the back yard. The owner did some lovely landscaping and renovations during the off season. We had great weather and it was a perfect week. We can't wait to be back next year!

We're more than pleased to have rented this house for our Cape Cod vacation. It's hard to imagine better for our family of four. The house itself is clean, airy and cool. The wraparound porch was perfect for alfresco dinners, and we surprised ourselves with how much we liked the outdoor shower. Use of the canoe and rowboat was a real bonus -- Ryder Pond had more than enough yellow perch for a taco dinner, and a trip to Schoolhouse pond was easy and pleasant. There is access to the Cape Cod Rail Trail along a public road -- not fabulous, but not bad either -- as well as an easy drive to the fun in Chatham. On balance I'd be hard put to think of a place with all-around better amenities. Very pleased! show more show less

This was a perfect lakeside retreat for our first visit to Cape Cod. Large deck to enjoy the view of the lake. My 3 boys loved the jetty and canoes, they fished from them every day, providing a great holiday memory. Kitchen beautiful and very we'll equipped. The house was also great for exploring cape cod. Chatham itself is a beautiful town, we travelled the whole cape during our stay and found it to be the most beautiful town. Friday night jazz nights in the park were perfect. Lovely mix of shops and eateries too. Beach wise lighthouse beach beautiful walking along to the monomoy nature reserve, Atlantic still cool to the foot in July so we found another couple of beaches at Skaket and neighbouring rocky harbour and ridgevale which is just a few minutes from the house. SkAket enjoys the warm waters of the Nantucket sound and a lazy river - we loved jumping on our inflatables and drifting around the lazy river circuit. We also enjoyed tuna fishing and whale watching. A perfect break. We'll return. A++++ property owner to work with - thanks heather. show more show less

My husband and I took our 2 young kids (2 and 4) for some much needed family time away from the city and this home was perfect for us. The house was very clean, well-maintained, and stocked with everything we needed when we arrived. The location is great for children because it's located right on a pond very close to a wonderful family beach (Schoolhouse). Every day my husband took one of the kids in the paddle boat while I walked with a wagon of gear with the other kid. Everything was super easy and made our vacation so relaxing. The drive downtown was also easy and quick when we needed something or wanted to explore. Heather is incredibly nice and great to communicate with. She was available when we had questions, quick to respond, and refunded our security deposit right away. She even texted me a picture of a baby doll our daughter left to see if she was missed and then mailed her home! My husband is already thinking about planning our vacation for next year...we would definitely stay at this home again. show more show less

John and I were recommended this home by Bernard, who had come here last year. But even that did not prepare us for just how fantastic it would be. From the moment we stepped into the house after a long journey of 14 hours from England, we knew it was just perfect for us. It was so welcoming, clean and well equipped. Nice and secluded just like my john likes it. That first morning was amazing. We had a sail in the boat, john caught two fish( although we couldn't eat those) We had breakfast looking out over the lake and then the sun came out. I love cooking, so the kitchen and BBQ were well used. We particularly loved the location, so close to Chatham, and the great stop and shop, and of course the liquor store for champagne to celebrate our anniversary. It was sad to leave!

My wife and I stayed here for a week as part of a holiday to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We chose this house after being really impressed with the photos and the video - the reality is even better. The house is immaculately clean, well presented and is equipped with everything you could wish for. It is located right at the edge of the lake in an incredibly tranquil setting but is also only minutes away from Chatham and is well located for reaching just about everywhere on the Cape. It seems that late September is a wonderful time to visit too, it was much quieter than when we previously visited in August and we had the most fabulous weather. The owner is an absolute treasure, she was quick to respond to requests for information and gave great advice about places to visit. She also helped us with a problem we had later in our holiday. It was not connected with our stay in Chatham and she had absolutely no need to get involved but she did and we were so pleased that she tried to help. show more show less

A fantastic holiday stay nestled between the forest with direct lake access and the use of 3 boats in which the children made good use of.A peaceful stay with only the birds to disturb you and even had a small beach to visit just around the corner.Property was v clean on arrival and excellent kitchen facilities especially loved the huge fridge.Chatham is a charming holiday town with upmarket shops and restaurants and loads of stunning beaches to visit .

My husband and I spent a week in June at this rental in Chatham. What a find! The property is private and directly on a beautiful pond. The house was clean with new appliances and had everything we needed. The owners couldn't have been nicer. It was a great way to celebrate our anniversary.EditDelete

For two Bostonians, my wife and I, this was the perfect summer getaway. We woke up every morning to warm sunlight and chirping birds. We had our coffee outside on the wrap around deck overlooking the quiet pond. You'd think you were miles from civilization, but in a very short drive you can see all that Chatham has to offer. When our friends came to visit there was more than enough room for them. Everything in the home's description is accurate and the property was very clean upon our arrival. The owner was very easy to work with and I would certainly recommend this rental to anyone. show more show less
