Beautiful, clean home surrounded by tranquil gardens.

Just a short distance to quaint Chatham village, many restaurants, beautiful beaches and the Chatham Fishing Pier which we enjoyed.

Awesome property and great location to explore the Cape! Ive been coming to the Cape for the past 40 years and this was hands down the best rental experience you could ask for. Daniel made sure everything was to our expectations and more, terrific host. We will definitely be coming back to Summer Hydrangeas!

Lovely Chatham rental

My family and I had a wonderful time in this charming Chatham rental the week before labor day, dreary weather and all. The house is very comfortable and incredibly well equipped. The owner couldn't be more accommodating and the hot tub which we did not think we would use came in very handy after a long day on the beach. I would highly recommend this house.

Great stay at the Summer Hydrangea

My family and I had a wonderful time staying in this home at the Cape. Close to so many great restaurants (mom and pops burgers, Chatham Filling Station, Kream N Kone), beaches (Ridgevale and Red River, about 25min from Nauset), and things to do (rent paddle boards from the Pump House, visit downtown Chatham). The house was clean and Daniel was very attentive and responsive to our needs. It was well stocked with everything we could have needed and more. The hot tub certainly helped us make it through a dreary week with only a few “good” beach days. We would definitely stay here again!

Excellent service and property

The owner was simply fantastic, was extremely attentive and responsive, and had everything needed for a perfect vacation (linens, toilet tissue, coffee, creamer, charging stations, beach towels, beach chairs, etc.). We essentially needed only our clothes and our wallet. The house was great, perfect for our family, and made even better by the excellent service. The indoor hot tub was a real treat—a great way to wake up. If the rating scale was from 1-100, this would get a 100–and that’s no exaggeration.

Our best rental experience ever

We’ve been renting vacation homes for decades and this was, hands down, the best equipped vacation rental we’ve ever experienced. The owners have gone above and beyond to anticipate and provide for your vacation needs. There are ample beach chairs- and not those rusty half open/half closed ones you are used to- these are in perfect condition. Two beach umbrellas (the ones that tilt!) complete with sand anchors, two coolers (complete with Frisbees), plenty of towels and linens, ample paper products- even beautiful full size bars of soap! It is like visiting a very organized relative’s home. If you are traveling from afar you need to rent here at Summer Hydrangea. You can show up with just your clothes and have a wonderful time. In addition, the beds and pillows are extremely comfortable, the house was crazy clean and the hot tub is meticulously maintained. There was a fast internet connection, flat screen tvs and a great sound system. The home is located in a quiet neighborhood and Chatham is a great base from which to explore the Cape. I highly recommend this rental. It was an excellent rental experience.

We had a fabulous week at Summer Hydrangea! Loved Chatham and Hardings Beach!

A pleasure to deal with Dan at this lovely and well-equipped home. Everything you could ever need is there for a perfect Chatham vacation. Plenty of room for the 5-6 of us. The backyard and deck are the perfect place for quiet morning coffee and post-beach cocktails! Hope to be back!!

Top 10 Summer Vacation House

Summer Hydrangea was inviting, comfortable, unique with the amazing hot tub feature, quiet and private yard to relax, and the host Dan was an extremely hospitable host. The house was stocked with everything you could imagine and the entire upstairs was where our almost 7 year old daughter enjoyed her own space. I would recommend Summer Hydrangea for families or anyone at all looking for a spectacular location to beaches and shops. 5 stars all around- thank you Dan!!

Amazing getaway!

We stayed at this property for 1 week with our family. The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay extra special! They even brought our son a birthday cake! We truly couldn’t have asked for a better home always from home. They’ve thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable in their beautiful home. Our 2 children were extremely happy with “their” room and didn’t want to leave. We hope to visit again and would recommend staying here to anyone looking for high quality and thoughtful hosts! Can’t recommend enough!

The property is just perfect. Dan has thought of and supplied everything that you might want or need to have a wonderful, carefree vacation. The house is a short drive from beautiful swimming beaches and the charming center of Chatham. Dan is clearly an owner who takes great pride in keeping his property beautiful and his guests happy.

A Lovely Home in a Quiet Neighborhood

We had a wonderful stay at Daniel's lovely home. The location is ideal, within easy walking distance to several restaurants and our favorite "everything store," Ocean Lots. Although located directly under the flight path to the Chatham airport, the planes fly only 7 a.m. to dusk. The home was so comfortable and sheets, towels and everything was of excellent quality. Daniel is an 5-star host and seems to truly enjoy answering questions. We had family come over twice and they enjoyed the backhard and indoor hot tub. We loved ending the day with a nice outdoot shower and a hot tub. Thank you for an amazing stay in Cape Cod!

Truly Exceptional!!!

We enjoyed our stay at Summer Hydrangeas. Beautiful beautiful house!!! Very nicely decorated with arts and gorgeous plants. The bedrooms have comfortable beds and very nice furniture. Dan and Cristen were so sweet and very helpful along the way (Thank you for everything!!!). They care so much about their guests. The house is fully equipped with everything and more. Dan and Cristen were very generous with amenities and everything is awesome quality. I don’t have to mention cleanliness. When we arrived we were welcomed with a beautiful bouquet of flower, nice playing soft music and a tour of the house. We enjoyed everything. The hot tub was awesome!! We used the fully equipped kitchen to cook diner. We played legos upstairs. There were plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas in the garage. The outdoor shower is seriously the best I ever seen. Dan and Cristen were so helpful with recommendations and local events going on. We had the best vacation in Cape Cod.

Perfect stay!

My wife and I and 2 younger daughters (7 and 10) loved this house! Our stay was perfect and Dan was the perfect host. He even offered to let us come in early to beat the holiday traffic which we did. It was our 1st time in Chatham and we loved it. We'll be back at this house for sure.

Pristine Comfort

From the initial inquiry to the checkout process, Dan we incredible to deal with - prompt, informative and accommodating. The home was both comfortable and immaculately clean and Dan had made an effort to think of anything you might need, from basic kitchen tools, spices and other basics to spare toothbrushes and toothpaste etc. for anyone who forgot a key toiletry item. The location is great with a short drive (5 mins) or long walk (15-20mins) to Harding’s Beach and a two mile drive to town center. The living snd sleeping spaces were comfortable and spacious and the hot tub was a fun place to relax after a day at the beach. We highly recommend Dan’s home for anyone looking for this sized space in Chatham area.

Exquisite stay at a wonderful Chatham home

This was our family’s third consecutive summer vacation staying at the Summer Hydrangea and it consistently pleasing. The owners are professional and warm, and they maintain the property with love, care and attention to detail. It has everything for those want the benefits of a home away from home. The property offers so much in and of itself and yet is so well located on the Cape and within easy reach of beaches and other amenities. Our stay was the perfect blend of restful and fun!

A superb, idyllic home away from home.

This was my family’s second consecutive summer staying at the Summer Hydrangea; a beautiful Cape home in a tranquil location offering privacy and serenity. The owners maintain the property to a high standard and are attentive to the smallest details ensuring that their guests enjoy a hassle free vacation. As we travel to the Cape from overseas, we particularly appreciated the availability of items needed for a great day at the beach (deck chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, coolers, etc) but also valued the supply of fresh ground coffee and barbecue condiments as well as the fresh flower arrangement on our arrival. Dan is there to greet guests on arrival, making sure the house is inviting to weary guests and providing a little orientation. Some of the standout features include an indoor hot tub, a ping-pong table and a beautiful secluded patio area. Young children will love the attic space with LEGO and board games. There is also good WiFi and Netflix. For families with small children, there is an excellent beach, Red River Beach, only a few kilometers away in Harwich and Cap’n Kids Fishing Adventures operating out of Harwich Port is also a must! Chatham is a great location for exploring the rest of the Cape, particularly Harwich, Orleans and Wellfleet. We hope to return to this property for a third time in the future. Thank you Dan & Cristen.

Our Perfect Home away from Home!

This was our third summer staying at Summer Hydrangea and we’ll never stay anywhere else in Chatham! Dan is the most accommodating, kind, friendly host who attends to your every need. He even purchased taller beach chairs for my parents, who are having more trouble with the traditional style... the home is always clean and tidy, and so welcoming. We love the hot tub after the beach and in the evening. And the location of the home is central to everything in Chatham. Can’t wait to come back next year!
