Balfour cottage

What a great place to stay! I was on the Cape for Thanksgiving so it was a different kind of vacation but just as much fun. This sweet house had everything I needed and close to town and the beach. I loved walking the Sylvan Path every morning. The host stayed in touch to make sure everything was fine. Thanks Sharon!

Open floor plan, walk to restaurants, and bedding was a plus!

Beach towels, beach toys if you have young kids were available along with bath towels Rooms were decent sized. Bedding was asthetically pleasing. Beds were comfortable. Lots of extra blankets and throws Heating and AC were so helpful as it was unusually cold when we were at the cape Love the grill and easy to use Walk to restaurants Easy access to Main Street Use public access to white pond on the other side of pond Owner was easy to communicate with and helpful Sunroom was a nice private "room" kids could play cards in at night and not worry about waking up the rest of the house. Clean house Cons: Bunk bedroom had a closet but it was locked so a bit challenging for kids to manage clothes out of their luggage. No dresser Bathroom was oddly laid out Typical early check out at 10 can be challenging due to laundering bedding at 8 am but it saves you from bringing your own.

Lovely base for a Cape stay

This property made a lovely base for exploring the Cape. Easily accessible, near some good restaurants and an easy drive to Chatham, Harwich and beyond. Access to the public beach at White Pond was a highlight - we swam every day!

Why they chose this property

I have been vacationing in Chatham with my children, for nearly 30 years. Now my grandchildren love it as much as we do! It was a dream come true to purchase a home here. The people here are warm and friendly. Also, with 67 miles of coastline what is not to love?!

What makes this property unique

This home first caught my eye because of its walkability to so many places. Within a five minute walk is New England Pizza, Cuffy's store and seafood market. It is also only a 1.1 mile walk/drive to the Chatham rotary. A 5 minute stroll to White Pond for swimming or
canoeing!
