16644 - Lover's Lookout: Waterfront on Private Lake!
The Space:
Enjoy your best days of summer at our waterfront home located on the private Lover’s Lake in central Chatham! Bring or rent kayaks/SUP boards (Chatham Kayak Company is close by!) and cast away on the water soaking up the Cape Cod sun! Craving a little salt? Not to worry, Jackknife Beach and Harding’s Beach are both just a 5-10 minute drive away.
When you are all watered out, come back to the house to grill dinner on the gas grill and enjoy a meal on either the 2nd-floor deck or covered patio. Head back towards the water and relax in an Adirondack chair and watch the sunset paint the sky over the lake! Alternatively, brighten up a rainy night by making a homemade meal in the newly renovated kitchen, bright and clean with glistening white subway tiles and Stainless Steel Samsung Appliances. Enjoy an appetizer in the living area then share a meal around the formal dining table and admire the gleam of the steel art and decorative fireplace in the light. After dinner, retreat downstairs to the TV/Game Room for some late-night fun. Play a game of foosball, eat some popcorn and watch a movie on the couch, or indulge in a classic board game like Trivial Pursuit or Scrabble.
When you’re finally tuckered out from the day, head your separate ways to one of our home’s 4 bedrooms that sleeps up to 9 people. The main bedroom sits on the backside of the house on the first floor and features a King size bed-- where you can overlook the lake from a wall of windows that wraps around the back corner of the room. It also boasts a King bed, private Full Bathroom, TV, and a closet and dresser for ample storage. The second bedroom awaits across the home and struts a Queen Bed, TV, Full Bathroom, and large closet. The final two bedrooms are off of the Game Room on the ground floor. The third bedroom has one Queen and one Twin bed, closet and dresser, and its own door to the shared full bathroom-- which makes bedtime a breeze with two sinks! The fourth bedroom is across the floor and has two twin beds, a dresser, and a slider that goes out to the Patio. Central A/C on the 1st floor and mini-splits on the ground floor will keep you cool on the most feverish days of summer! Other top amenities include WiFi, cable TV, gas grill, and sheets and bath towels provided for each guest.
If you’re up for exploring the town, stroll down Main Street Chatham, or catch the Chatham Angler’s (of the Cape Cod Baseball League) play at Veteran’s Field. While you're out and about, be sure to check out some of our favorite eateries too like Hangar B (serving the best brunch around!), Mom & Pop’s (grilling the best veggie burger you’ll ever have), or Mac’s Chatham Fish & Lobster (broiling/frying all the best of Cape Cod seafood). Our waterfront home is bound to leave you with everlasting memories of summer and steal your heart forever!

I travel to the Cape for business often. I've rented Delmar properties several times now. The place was perfect for both work and hosting my family. Highly recommend for other families on their Cape trips
Our family had an enjoyable and relaxing time at this clean, modern amenities house, with a deck overlooking a peaceful and quiet lake, which we could walk down and swim in. The location was also a quick drive to multiple beaches and downtown Chatum and close to bike and hiking trails. We would definitely rent it again.
Really was an ideal home for our vacation that included my husband and I, our 2 adult children and their 2 infants. Home was spacious and clean. Only issue was the WiFi availability which was initially unavailable. The management company did eventually fix the issue and were pleasant to deal with. It was only an issue because one of my kids had several virtual work meetings scheduled during the week. Otherwise we were comfortable in the house and very much enjoyed our week away.
Family needed a quick getaway.
This house filled the need. Close to everything.
We had a small problem when arriving. The smoke detectors were randomly going off.
Nobody’s fault just a glitch in tech.
With one quick phone call the maintenance people were there and corrected the problem in less than an hour while we went down town for a walk.
Great job!
Being close to the kettle pond was nice.
Would definitely recommend!

This house requires work; it floods during light rain. Rain water fills the window well and then runs through the lower level bedroom window even though the window is closed and locked. There was a humidifier running in the lower level the entire time we were there and I thought the delaminated baseboard was a result of a one time situation but when it started to rain I realized that this was a recurring problem I realized that my brother's "cold" was probably a result of staying in the damp bedroom because it disappeared once he returned home. After he left I stayed in that room and began to feel like I was coming down with a cold. The property management staff came to address the water that covered the bedroom floor and soaked the rug in the adjoining room but the water seemed to have permeated the foundation. We could no longer use half the house, the lower level. Additionally, the musty scent we observed was likely due to mold. The house is in a great location and has a great layout but I wouldn't advise staying there until they fix the drainage problem and can ensure that it will stay dry and mold free.
Very nice property, managers did a great job of communicating. I wish the checkout was later but I understand they need to get ready for the next group. Overall a great house for families.
The cleanliness of the property would deter me from ever staying there again. Mold and debris all over the deck and porch, yard debris, dirt and bugs in the interior of all the doors, countless things broken throughout the house. There were other guests clothing still hanging in the closet, stains on the bedding, and the mustiness and likely allergens etc within the home caused several members of our party, including infants, to have flares of asthma and other respiratory issues. The location and scenery aren't a sufficient enough bonus to overcome the profound need for the entire property to be deep cleaned. Given the cost, the fact that a property management company is involved, and that check in was 4 and check out 9 am, there should be amble opportunity to create the haven that is advertised.

Hi Kelley, I'm sorry to hear you and your family did not enjoy your time at the home!
I wish we'd heard from you during your stay regarding the issues you encountered! Our team is always around to help with anything you may need for a perfect stay. When we did hear back from you upon your check out and learned that you'd experienced mustiness in the home, our team did go over and a dehumidifier has been put in the lower level of the home. Our team has since investigated your other issues at the home and I can assure you we are very meticulous when it comes to cleaning, as you can see from the other reviews by happy guests!
We do hope to host you again at any of our homes to earn your full 5-stars! Have a wonderful season!
This was the perfect house for my husband and myself with adult children and spouses. We had our own space when necessary or to gather in family room, deck, living room or outside. I would definitely rent here again!!
Great vacation home for the family, beautiful views of the lake with lake access! Great back yard and porch, the home is packed with lot's of charm. Also, within minutes from dinning and beach! We will be back...
My husband and I took our kids (8 & 10) to this beautiful lake house. It was amazing! The house was perfect, spacious and in an amazing location. In the morning I drank my coffee down by the lake while the kiddos played with the little fish that come up to greet you. The lake was perfect for swimming, kayaking and fishing! We rented kayaks (from the place that was recommended by the host). They delivered them for the week to the home and we had such a blast! We could not have asked for a better time, home and we will most definitely not only try to get the same house but if not, we would stick with rentals through Del Mar. The property managers were communicative and responsive. I thought I had an issue with the washer/dryer but turned out to be the operator (me) and not the machine :)
Can’t wait to get back to the cape!

Hi Maria! Thanks so much for the positive feedback! We'd love to host you again anytime you'd like to return. Best, Deb @ Del Mar Vacations
The house was pretty clean (although many dust bunnies and crumbs when furniture was moved) and the lake was really perfect for kayaking. Easy and quick to get to beaches and downtown via car. Also the kids loved being close to the airport. The dishwasher is not anchored in, so the door kept opening toward the end of every cycle, so that wasn’t great. The grill was pretty nasty BUT I did let Del Mar know and they sent someone to clean it, and provided brand new grates and tools to use, the next day. That was very good service and we were very happy with it.

Hi Marlo! Thanks so much for staying with us and we'd love to host you any time you'd like to return to the Cape! Best regards, Deb & the Del Mar Team
Really enjoyed our stay. 4 adults and 1 10yr. old. lots of room and a beautiful setting.
Loved the house and property. Can tell it is new and some things need to be tweaked. Always with a remodel. Tried to rent for the summer a couple of weeks and nothing available unfortunately. Maybe we will get lucky to rent agin.Good luck to you

We cover all angles by Thinking like a Homeowner, Thinking like a Guest with our anticipatory service and detailed care of all our homes.
