About this property

Spacious, private cottage just a few minutes walk to Ridgevale Beach!

Summer living less than a 1/2 mile from one of Cape Cod's best beaches! This home offers room to spread out, with living and sun rooms, 3 bedrooms and 2 baths across 1,250 square feet. The wraparound deck is the perfect place to share a meal after a day spent exploring the beaches, bike paths, and shopping areas of Chatham. Cathedral ceilings in sunroom and master. Sleeps 6 very comfortably. Enjoy a private setting just off the main beach road, nestled on a low-traffic loop street with conservation land behind the home.

The home's amenities include keyless smart lock entry, central air conditioning, 55-inch ultra HD Roku TV with YouTube or fubo TV, and a desk and chair setup in the master bedroom. Freshly-laundered bed linens, bath and kitchen towels are provided.

Outside, you'll find Adirondacks on the front-yard patio, private outdoor shower with rainfall head, and table seating for 6 on the back deck with Sunbrella umbrella and Weber gas grill.

In the shed, we provide a beach cart, four beach chairs, and various beach toys for your use. Bikes are not provided but can be stored in the shed (we love the 1 minute bike ride to the beach!).

The home has a Nest video doorbell at the entryway and a Google Home display device inside the home for your use. WiFi was upgraded in late 2023.

We've completed our biggest updates yet for the 2024 season, including new windows throughout the original cottage; new quartz countertop, sink and tile in the kitchen; and new tub, wall tile and toilet in the master bath. Book soon!

Perfect in every way!
Very clean, spacious, comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals. Information provided was perfect, easy to read, just what we needed. Easy walk to the beach. Highly recommend Marion's Pie Shop and Impudent Oyster Restaurant.

Fantastic Late Summer Getaway
The property was just as advertised and maybe even a little better! Clean and spacious and in a great location! We would definitely rent this home again on future visits to the Cape!

Comfy cottage
We just spent one week at the cottage this Summer and had a wonderful family time here. The house is very clean and well equipped with towels, sheets, beach umbrella and chairs. The deck and backyard provides a nice place for kids to run around and for family bbq/dinner time. The neighborhood is quite private and quiet. Very easy walk to the beach. Easy communication with the owner. Beth and Chris left very detailed instructions and even included a thoughtful list of local restaurants/activities. My parents and young kids all loved our time here. Would love to come back next Summer!

Cape Summer Break
We had a wonderful stay. We haven't spent time on the Cape since my oldest was a toddler in 2016. The house was very comfortable and well appointed. We appreciate all the beach stuff and not having to bring our own. Being able to walk to the beach with 2 kids was perfect. Would love to come back!

July 4th Vacation
We stayed in this Chatham home for a week with our daughter and her partner. We gave them the very large master bedroom suite with king bed, large closet, private bathroom and laundry area. They felt very spoiled and loved their private space. We appreciated the generous amount of towels, kitchen items and blankets/sheets. This home was extremely clean upon arrival. My husband really enjoyed the outside shower.

Why they chose this property

Location, location... we think this home provides uncommon rest and relaxation just off the beaten path but also a quick 2/5ths of a mile hop (or an even faster bike ride) to one of the best beaches we've ever known and to all the sites, dining and shopping that Chatham has to offer.

What makes this property unique

This house feels like the union of two of our favorite things: the beach and camping. Sitting on the deck in the morning with a cup of coffee, you feel like you are officially on vacation, especially on those days when you hear the surf crashing just beyond the marsh.
