Chatham, Massachusetts
If you have children or grandchildren, Blue Skye is for you. Lots of lawn to run and play, but they are far from the street and other off-property houses. Curl up with that book or just close your eyes because you know this house and yard is perfect for them.
Hardings Beach - the most popular area beach because of its warmer, calmer water, wide clean sand, and a one mile beach walk to the lighthouse. It's a 2 minute walk with the children along a wide pedestrian sidewalk to the beach. Use the Red Flyer wagon to take the kids down to the beach. Look for the seals, boats heading into Nantucket Sound, wind surfers, fishermen, the famous fish weirs off shore, and lots of shells to find.
Pick your Hideaway - is it the screened porch, front porch swing, a rocking chair under a shade tree, or a sunny spot far away from the kids playing on the lawn
Need to borrow some sand or lawn toys Look under the porch.
Bring your bikes and store them under the porch. The Cape Cod Bike Trail goes for 22 miles and is only a 4 minute drive up the road.

We had such a great vacation hosted by the McDonalds house. The house is roomy, has the cape vibe, is super clean, and fit all 10 of use comfortably. This house has a quick walk to the beach and is set back to have a private relaxing yard. We would recommend this to anyone hoping to have a comfortable stay on the cape with easy access to Hardings beach. Working with the McDonalds is easy and everything is even better even than the pictures convey.
It was great! The beach was so convenient. The weather even allowed us 5 days on the beach! The house was clean, spacious and the owner was very engaged and accessible.
We had an amazing time staying at Tom’s property. The location was so ideal, especially for family, as we could see Harding’s Beach from the end of the driveway. Tom was extremely hospitable and friendly in ensuring we had everything we needed. The neighborhood is perfect too as it’s quiet and family friendly, but you’re less than 10 mins drive away from most places you’d like to go in Chatham and Harwich. House had plenty of room for congregating, hanging outside on two decks, and lounging in the yard.
Classic cape cod home in a great location
This is a beautiful, spacious house with everything you need for a vacation. We used the American Flyer wagon to cart our beach stuff to the beach, a 5 min walk. The kids used the boogie boards. We relaxed on the front porch with a great porch swing. The upstairs has great AC and the bedroom downstairs also has AC. Communication with the owner, Tom, was excellent.
The house was better than advertised. I almost want to give it negative reviews so I will be able to rent it next year. The area is the best kept secret in Chatham and the house has old school charm with all of your modern conveniences. The owners have gone out of their way to ensure you have everything you need and have a great stay. I cant wait to return.
Easy and friendly
The house easily accommodated our family of 6 adults and 4 grandchildren. It was very comfortable, well equipped, and loaded with Cape Cod character. The grandchildren really enjoyed the large yard and were very happy with the short walk to one of our favorite beaches. Our entire family really enjoyed our week at this property.
The house was in excellent shape, and the kitchen was quite large and very well stocked. The front yard provided a place for our granddaughter to play, and the beach was only a short walk away. An extra bonus was that the daughter and granddaughters of the owner were staying in another house on the property, and one of the granddaughters was very nice to our granddaughter.
The house was just as described. Clean and comfortable. Rooms are nicely decorated. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots/pans and equipment. We spent a lot of time on the screened in porch. Also tons of beach toys, umbrellas, chairs, etc. so no need to haul your own. Short walk down to the beach which was easy with kids. All around great stay and highly recommended.
