    The bathroom is small and the laundry is outside in a shed. The kitchen is good with a microwave and coffee maker. Comfortable living space, but there no lamps.

    My husband and I stayed in this lovely Cape house with our 13-year old son while we were in town for a week for a family wedding. It was perfect! It’s such a sweet spot, and reminded me of the Cape vacations we used to take when I was a kid - peaceful, simple, and carefree.It’s an easy walk to a great bakery and coffee shop, and a nice walk to the shops and restaurants on Main Street.Sharon is easy to communicate with, and does a great job hosting.We’d definitely recommend this rental.

    Cottage is well located in Chatham with easy access to downtown and local beaches. The cottage is very clean and has everything you need for cooking, grilling, laundry, etc. We had a very pleasant week's stay and owner communicates well for providing information and answering questions.

    My daughters and I were in town for the annual Christmas Stroll. Sharon's house is adorable, clean, comfortable and you cannot beat the location. Very close to town and the the fish market where we purchased steamed and cracked lobster for our dinner. We enjoyed walking down to White Pond to watch the gorgeous sunset. Street is tucked away off of Rte 28 on a quiet road. Fabulous and festive weekend.

    We really enjoyed the cottage for our end of summer trip to Chatham. Sharon was a wonderful and generous host who responded timely to any inquiries we had. Great location in Chatham with easy access to downtown as well as Chatham beaches. Nice, quiet street with access to walking trails. Would stay here again!

    Sharon was a great host and check-in and communication were super easy. Great proximity to downtown and to beaches and that is really all we cared about. Accommodations were clean and neat albeit rustic and dated. In summary, for the cost in the overpriced Cape this is a solid choice.

    We had a lovely time in Chatham! We went fishing at white pond lake 2 of the days and caught some big bass. We drove to Mayflower beach one day. We observed the light house and walked along light house beach where we saw live star fish, crabs, love mollusks in the shallow water. We observed at the fishing pier where we saw the fishermen unload their fish and the seals surround the boat for a snack. The home was a short drive to shopping and restaurants. Overall a lot of happy memories before baby arrives and we were very happy about the affordable price of our stay.
