About this property

Home Plate Nestled in Downtown Chatham!

Description:
*Four bedrooms (plus outbuilding with daybeds sleeping four and heating/cooling…great for teens!)
*Beds for twelve (max of 12 occupants)
*2 ½ baths; enclosed outdoor shower

House Description: This is a hidden gem just a short walk to Main Street in Chatham! The main house has three zones of central air and has been beautifully renovated. The first floor suite has full bathroom with heated floor and extra deep tub as well as a walk-in closet. With four bedrooms, this house is suitable for two families to share. This home features outdoor and indoor living at its best! Walk one minute to the large town playground and five minutes to Oyster Pond Beach. Drive five minutes to area beaches. Enjoy a burger at the Red Nun just around the corner, and walk two minutes to the shops and restaurants of downtown. The patio, in the shape of a home plate, features a propane fire pit and outdoor kitchen. Take advantage of the relaxing enclosed outdoor shower. Just past the backyard fence is the best field in the Cape Cod baseball league, the top amateur league in the country. When you are lucky enough to experience a home game, it is a truly magical family atmosphere. You will have the best view in your own backyard when sitting in the lifeguard-chair-style stadium seats (also a nice spot for morning coffee or evening cocktails)! The yard is shaded and private. As a bonus, there is a renovated outbuilding with a hang-out space, Roku TV, X-box gaming system, and extra sleeping for four in twin daybeds with twin trundles, including heat and AC.

Amazing Location

My friends and I do an annual golf trip to the Cape every spring and of all the homes we've rented over the past several years, this one beats them all. The hosts are excellent, and the property is so convenient to Chatham Center. We hope we can rent Home Plate again next spring.

Terrific Stay!

Comfortable, quiet, attractive, welcoming, well-appointed kitchen, excellent location, fun! 22 Veterans' Field Road in Chatham could not have been more perfect for our family of 5...we felt right at home while visiting for 4 nights and a nearby family wedding. Shopping on and around Main Street was an easy walk away. Our hosts were incredibly responsive to our few questions and felt more like friends than hosts we had never met. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Perfect Location in Chatham

We had a lovely stay at this property. The location is perfect! With young children we were able to enjoy the baseball games - it was the championship! - and the playground. You also have access to the community center right nextdoor if it rains. We loved that you could walk to town shops and restaurants. We were two families with several little kids and the house felt big enough to spread out but also has nice space to all be together both in and outdoors. We sat around the gas fire pit every night. Highly recommend this property, thank you for a great stay!

What a Great Spot!

We absolutely loved our stay at John’s property. The main house and guest house were spotless and the property itself was in such a convenient area! The lookout over the baseball field is awesome, we didn’t catch a game or practice, but I imagine it’s really fun to have that experience there! The house is also walking distance to downtown and only a short distance about from Chatham Bars Inn (we had a wedding there). John could not have been more amenable and was easy to get in contact with and always so friendly! Whenever we come back to Chatham we would love to stay here again!

Exceeded Expectations

Everything about our stay was amazing. We were celebrating my mother's 90th birthday and couldn't have asked for a better location. Our family couldn't stop talking about what a wonderful find this was. It was close to town and overlooking the Chatham A's stadium. The patio/grill outdoor area was perfect for dinner and visiting outside around the fire pit, a game of corn hole, or a cup of coffee in the morning. The house is so thoughtfully decorated and laid out and the owners have thought of everything. We'd definitely come back again.

The perfect Labor Day weekend!

We had the best stay at this beautiful home in Chatham! The pictures do not do it justice to how amazing the space is. We spent mornings watching the Cape Cod Classic baseball tournament from the life guard chairs. We had too many laughs while sitting around the fire pit. We were in perfect walking distance to town and spent too much time at the Squire. We can’t thank you enough for making our brides celebration weekend perfect! We hope to make it back to Chatham in the future!

Great family vacation

My wife and I stayed with our two adult children , their spouses and four grandchildren, ages 7 to 16. The house was great. Lots of amenities and the patio, with a fire pit and grill was where we spent most of our time when we were at the house. It was also conveniently located near the main part of town, including walking distance to some restaurants, and the community center where the grandkids were permitted to use the indoor basketball court on our one rainy day was a two minute walk.When we had a question about something the host responded within minutes and followed up to confirm our question was fully addressed.

We had an excellent stay and would highly recommend this property. The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The location was outstanding, and one of the highlights of our trip was being able to watch Cape Cod League baseball from the property. It created a unique and memorable experience that made our stay even more special. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would gladly return in the future.

This stay was perfect for a larger group. Everything in Chatham was walking distance, the outdoor space and the beach items made our stay so easy, and the house itself was comfortable and clean! The separate dugout space would be awesome for kiddos but also worked well for 4 adults. We would definitely stay here again when visiting the Cape!

This place doesn’t disappoint

We booked this property with two other couples and our kids. The first night there we relaxed and took in a Chatham As game and grilled some burgers and hots on the grill. The place comes with a nice speaker on wheels which aloud us to listen to some tunes every night around the fire. The location is second to none. And not going to lie we were feeling like kids again with all the activities right there to do. One night we had our own home run derby and couple other nights we’d play basketball in the community center that is literally steps away. As far as location to town I’d say with in a 5 min walk your into the heart of town with all the shops, 5 mins the other way and you have a great market. As far as sleeping conditions the rooms were very specious and comfortable. Late at night the guys would go out to the dugout to watch some playoff hockey. It’s just a great place every way around. John the host is great as well and is always there if you have any questions. I would stay in this house again for sure.

Better Than Advertised - FANTASTIC !

This is a magnificent property all-the-way around. Fully updated, all the amenities you could possibly want for indoor and outdoor fun and activities - fire pit, hammock, toys and games, modern appliances, outdoor shower and grilling "plaza" on a huge patio, and comfy and open spaces & furnishings all around. Hosts (John and Jen) are very responsive and knowledgeable about the area AND the location is simply the best as it's in walking distance to really just about everything you would want to see/go to in Chatham. Also, let's not forget about the separate cottage (play room and "sleep-over" haven) and your own private bleacher seats to watch the Chatham A's play some of the best farm-league summah baseball in the country. Will be coming back on a regular basis and/or whenever we want the perfect place to enjoy the best that Cape Cod has to offer. Thanks !!

Perfect Family Rental

This home could not be in a better spot for families. The small bedrooms upstairs are great size for young children. Better still, the house has built in entertainment with access to a small park within eye shot and walking distance to all the local shops. Our oldest enjoyed down time in the guest cottage playing Xbox and all the included lawn games. The home is well kept and was very clean. There is an upstairs and downstairs master which could work well for families traveling with grandparents. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by John Daileanes

Host profile image
My wife and I have lived in Amesbury, MA, for over 25 years and have raised both of our children there. My wife is a high school English teacher in Amesbury while I am the high school athletic director for Masconomet Public Schools.

We were fortunate enough to pack up the family mini van each summer to roadtrip to Chatham for a week. We just love the Cape! We convinced my wife’s brother and his wife to join us on our family vacations in Chatham, and now we co-own this special home in the heart of the town.

My brother-in-law and sister-in-law are both optometrists who live in Sterling, MA. They also have two young adult children. The cousins are very close who love spending time together on and off the Cape.

Why they chose this property

This is our family's dream place to be. We love the downtown, baseball, the people we have met, and the beauty of the Cape!

What makes this property unique

We are within walking distance to all amenities, including shops, restaurants, Chatham Bars Inn, local grocery store, Laundromat, CVS, local beaches, etc. We are also the best seat in the house to watch the Chatham Anglers baseball team, part of the best amateur baseball league in the country. While we try to supply overnight basics such as basic soaps, spices, oils, paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, shampoo, laundry soap, and plastic wraps, these items do get depleted. Please plan on picking up paper towels & TP when you grocery shop. Thank you!
