This place is an absolute gem. It is just steps from a beautiful little beach where you can launch a kayak and explore Stage Harbor and the waters around Chatham. The location could not be better: close enough to downtown Chatham to enjoy everything it has to offer, but just far enough away that you do not have to deal with the crowds and parking headaches.Although it is described as a guest house, that really does not do it justice. If someone had told me it was its own standalone Cape house, I would have completely believed them. It feels spacious, private, peaceful, and thoughtfully designed. The beautiful wide-plank floors give it so much character, the nautical touches throughout are charming without being overdone, and all of the amenities are excellent. The upstairs bedroom is enormous and makes the house feel even more spacious.One of our favorite features was the quiet, private outdoor shower. After spending the day kayaking or being out on the water, coming back and taking an outdoor shower was wonderful and felt quintessentially Cape Cod.The owner is also incredibly caring and attentive and clearly takes great pride in making sure guests are comfortable and have everything they need. The whole property feels welcoming, exceptionally well cared for, and much more substantial than the words “guest house” suggest.12/10 with beach just steps away, easy access to Stage Harbor, proximity to downtown Chatham, peaceful setting, beautiful interior and great owners!

A real home by the sea (and an easy choice to come back!)This was our fourth year returning to Karen’s house, and we were delighted to fit in a stay again this summer. Unlike too many vacation rentals, Karen’s house feels authentic and personal, in a beautiful setting a short walk from a small beach. The biking, kayaking, beaches, and food are all big highlights for us around Chatham, and Karen’s house is a wonderful home base for each, including a full garage for our bikes and a convenient spot to keep kayaks near the water. Thank you Karen!

Even better than description

An awesome house on a great property. The access to the private beach is what I was excited about and it exceeded all expectations. So much so that we barely went to other beaches and it was a quick walk to jump in the water and refresh. Great part of town too. Will try to come back next year!

Another great year!

We stay in this house every summer - it’s been so many summers in a row that I have lost count! It’s the perfect house and perfect location for us. Steps from the water (and a view of it), close to town, and Karen is the best - super friendly and responsive. Already booked again for next year! If you are looking for a comfortable and cozy place with a glimpse of the water and the convenience of being close to town, this is your place!

Relaxing Cape Getaway

The cottage had everything we needed so we just had to think about the important things: long walks on beaches—besides the charming private beach at the cottage—Nauset beach among others is a short drive away; long hours reading in the many cozy nooks and doing jigsaw puzzles—they along with games are in great supply ; leisurely brunches and deciding what to have for dinner—the kitchen was beautifully equipped for fixing delicious meals. Karen’s cottage was so very peaceful and well appointed, it provided the perfect atmosphere for relaxation.

Relaxing, and peaceful stay,

2020 was a very stressful year for the entire world. Our family lives in 3 States and we were waiting for the moment ALL of us would be fully vaccinated to finally meet for the first time in a year! We were in search of the perfect place on the Cape to meet up and spend quality time together! We were very fortunate to discover Karen’s lovely vacation home. It’s charming nautical theme immediately put us in a vacation mood! The private beach was a bonus to sit and stare at the stars. Karen is a wonderful and very responsive host. I would recommend this place to my friends.

About the host

Hosted by Karen Roach

Host profile image
Our family has had a summer home in Chatham since my grandfather bought a vacation home here back in the 50's - before Route 6 existed! We built our home in 2006 and love to come relax and get away at the house. A morning or sunset walk on the beach, dinner at The Impudent Oyster, a visit to the Wellfleet Flea Market - all are great activities we enjoy when we are at the house. We can provide lots of recommendations for other things to do and places to explore on the Cape.

Why they chose this property

Our home is on family land owned since the 50's...

What makes this property unique

The quiet relaxing feel of this corner of town, the nice loop to walk / run and the quick walk to the beach to watch the boats bobbing at their moorings and the sailboats zigzagging across the harbor.
