Description

Come Relax and Enjoy Cape Cod!

Welcome to our clean, comfortable, and spacious South Chatham home! Conveniently located between Chatham and Harwich, our home is tucked away in a quiet, private neighborhood while still being close to beaches, biking, restaurants, shopping, golf, and everything the Cape has to offer.

Forest Beach is just 6/10 of a mile away, with free beach parking, and the Cape Cod Rail Trail is only about 1/5 mile from the house. Shops and dining are nearby, with tennis and basketball courts within walking distance and plenty of golf courses throughout the area.

The home has central air conditioning throughout, installed in 2022.

One of our favorite features is the large screened-in porch, with both a dining area and comfortable seating. It's a wonderful spot for morning coffee, family meals, an afternoon book, or relaxing in the evening—and best of all, no bugs!

Outside, you'll find a private outdoor shower—perfect for rinsing off after a day at the beach—along with a Weber gas grill, new in 2024, a hammock for relaxing, and an outdoor stand for storing your bikes.<br /> <br /> Inside, the living room has a cathedral ceiling and ceiling fan, with beautiful northern red oak hardwood floors extending through the living room, dining room, and kitchen.<br /> <br /> There are two TVs, including a 50-inch Smart TV where you can sign in to your favorite streaming services, along with high-speed wireless internet throughout the house.<br /> <br /> The home comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests in three bedrooms:<br /> <br /> The primary bedroom has a queen-size bed and private en-suite bathroom with a shower.<br /> The second bedroom has a king-size pillow-top mattress with memory foam.<br /> The third bedroom has two twin beds.<br /> A second full bathroom is located across the hall from the king and twin bedrooms.<br /> <br /> Both bathrooms have been updated.<br /> <br /> For your convenience, there's a first-floor laundry area with a washer and dryer, and the refrigerator was replaced in August 2026.<br /> <br /> And because it's Cape Cod, we'll leave you a lobster pot, accessories, and instructions for steaming or boiling your own Cape Cod lobster dinner!<br /> <br /> The property has access from two streets, with driveways on both sides of the house for convenient off-street parking.<br /> <br /> Guests should bring their own sheets and towels. We provide blankets, pillows, and comforters.<br /> <br /> No pets, please. We love animals, but unfortunately we're unable to accommodate them.<br /> <br /> Smoking is not permitted inside the house. Guests who smoke may do so on the porch.<br /> <br /> A security deposit is required. Shorter stays in September and October may be considered. We do not offer long-term stays. Payments are accepted through Zelle, Venmo, or personal check.<br /> <br /> Whether you're spending your days at the beach, biking the Rail Trail, playing golf, exploring Chatham and Harwich, or simply relaxing on the screened porch, our South Chatham home is a comfortable and convenient place to enjoy your Cape Cod vacation.<br /> <br /> We hope you'll come stay with us and make some wonderful Cape Cod memories!<br /> <br /> Thank you,<br /> Alex and Melanie<br /> read more show less

    This House is a Win!
    September 2026

    Perfect location just off route 28- short drive to supermarket and easy walk to both the rail trail and the beach! The house was comfortable and spacious for our group of six adults. We loved having AC, dishwasher, washer dryer and fully stocked kitchen. We had a great stay and would happily rent here again!

    Wonderful vacation home!
    July 2026

    We vacation on the Cape every summer and part of the fun is trying out new homes. This was a perfect vacation spot for the four of us. The house had every amenity that we needed, and Alex was very responsive to any concerns that we may have had. The beach down the road was a perfect getaway for a few hours every day instead of having to go to one of the bigger beaches and pay a lot for parking. We had a great week and would highly recommend this home to any family.

    Great location - Privacy, but close to everything
    July 2024

    This is our second year staying here and it was another fabulous year. Alex, the owner, had great communication throughout the process. The house was perfect for my family of 3 adults and 2 kids. Easy drive to Forest St. beach that has free parking or an easy walk if you'd like. The house has plenty of space to relax or enjoy a meal. Being so close to 28 is perfect for exploring, but the yard has so many trees and landscaping you feel like you're off on your own. Central air is a must have for us and this property recently updated.

    This is the perfect cape getaway!

    What a Cape house is supposed to be!
    July 2024

    My family and I had the best stay at Melanie and Alex's beautiful home in South Chatham, and it was an absolute delight from start to finish. If you're looking for the perfect, classic week down the cape, this is the place!

    The location couldn't be better - it was quick 10-minute walk to the beach, which was convenient and great to not have to worry about parking

    The house itself is a gem, it just has that classic Cape Code feel. From the moment we stepped inside, we noticed how clean and well-maintained it was. The home is thoughtfully furnished with cozy, stylish décor that makes it feel like a home away from home.

    The location of the house itself was great - a quick drive to either downtown Chatham or Harwich Port.

    Overall, this South Chatham Cape house is a perfect blend of comfort, cleanliness, and location. I would highly recommend it to anyone - we can't wait to return!

    Family Reunion
    July 2022

    We just returned from a reunion on the Cape. Five of us enjoyed the perfect location and very comfortable home. Everything we needed was in the house, the kitchen was stocked with all the dishes we needed to host a large family reunion one night. The outdoor shower was perfect after the beach and the AC was terrific. There was adequate parking in the front and back of the house and it was walking distance to a new restaurant/bar and Forest Beach. Honestly, it was Perfect for us and you will not find a better landlord!! show more show less

    It's all about the porch!
    September 2021

    Great location - seconds from Route 28 but still quiet. Less than 10 min walk to Forrest Beach and about a 2 minute walk to the South Chatham library.

    We lived on the porch most of the time that we were there:). Open floor plan made it easy to hangout. We had a tornado warning (there's a basement if needed - but we didn't) and Alex texted early the next morning to check in.

    Have already recommended, and will rent again.

    Great location and home!
    August 2020

    This was a perfect vacation spot! Alex was really prompt with communications and we appreciated his honesty answering all of our questions about potential noise (there was none!) and safety for our teen biking alone (it was ideal). He also had great suggestions and tips for the area. The house is well located, close to the bike trail, Chatham village, a major grocery store up the road, and a great local beach that was perfect for a quick dip or sunset walk.

    The house itself is spacious, modern, and clean, with a fabulous screened-in porch that we really enjoyed and spent most evenings relaxing in, without having to worry about mosquitoes. The dining and living areas were airy and had plenty of room for lounging and for working from "home." It was great to have several options for where to set up our laptops (dining room table, porch, living room) and the wifi was strong throughout the house, which really helped.

    The outdoor shower was fantastic, and we appreciated the mini bike rack in the yard and the hammock. The yard was gorgeous and well-shaded. It's really the perfect house if you just want to hang around! The nearby homes and streets are lovely and quiet for walking, and our teen enjoyed having access to the bike trail, as well as being in walking distance to a great ice cream shop. You never know what you'll get with a vacation rental and this exceeded our expectations.

    Classic Cape Rental!
    October 2018

    This is the perfect Cape summer rental. All the amenities we could possibly need for our family of 4. Good sized bedrooms (and beds!), functional kitchen, grill, and dining area. The screned porch is ideal for enjoying the outdoor bug free for at night or a cup of coffee in the am. Great location close to plenty of beaches, food, stores in Chatham or Harwichport. The owner is very attentive and quick to respond. We really enjoyed our stay! Thanks!

    What a great equipped cottage & super location!
    September 2014

    We had a wonderful time at this cottage for our family vacation this July. We have visited the Cape 3 summers in a row now & just love it!

    This cottage was very equipped, great location, central to Harwich & Chatham for our day trips! We loved being so close to the bike path to explore the Cape!

    We travelled with our 2 girls, ages 10 & 8..it was great that they both had their own bedroom & bathroom to share. I loved having the laundry on site. The kitchen was well equipped & the sun room was a treat.

    Alex was a pleasure to deal with through the whole process of booking & information.

    Paradise on Cape Cod
    September 2014

    We spent a wonderful 2 weeks at this home. in Chatham. This cottage is convenient to anything you need - the beach and Main Street. We have rented many times from private owner, but this owner went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. This cottage has everything you need and while we in a convenient location, you feel like you are in a secluded hideaway.
