Perfect Cape Cod House
Submitted: August 30, 2009
Stayed: August 2009
I would not hesitate to recommend John & Denise's Chatham home to anyone looking for a perfect Cape get-away. In fact, I was still enjoying my stay at their home when I emailed John and asked to reserve a week there next summer along with an additional weekend!
The house is just as the pictures that are posted. It was immaculate, and neither too big nor too small and very well equipped. The backyard patio is wonderful in the evening whether reading, talking, grilling or enjoying the outdoor shower. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful and the location to beaches, downtown and sites is very convenient.
We enjoyed Cockle Cove beach and Hardings Beach. It's wonderful to get in the ocean and not freeze - these waters had to be at least 75 degrees due to being on the Sound.....and they were not crowded.
The town of Chatham is quaint, charming and offers an array of dining, shopping, and other activities. You may be as busy (or not) as you would like. Lunch at the Chatham Bar Inn on the veranda overlooking the Sound; an island excursion and watching the seals; visiting a lighthouse; walking through Main Street and admiring the homes and gardens or lazing on a beach and enjoying the water will not disappoint.
I am looking forward to next summer and homemade ice cream at the Schoolhouse Ice cream Shop at the end of Cockle Cove Road........in addition to the Chef's Carbonerra at the Chatham Squire restaurant in town!
