My family of 4 stayed for two nights and thought it was absolutely perfect for a weekend stay. We got lucky with amazing weather and having lots of 4th of July festivities close by. Betsy was a fabulous host. We’d love to come for another weekend in the Fall!

Not impressed - would not recommend

There was a musty smell in the apartment. The comforter and sheets need to be updated. Even though RBVO said I was paid up, the owner asked me for more money after I checked in. Both the owner and VRBO messed up the payments. Would not recommend this home or renting anything from VRBO

Great lodging, location, and owner

My wife, daughter, and I journeyed to the Cape for some R & R after a hectic 4 days exploring Boston. This efficiency apartment is the entire upper floor of the owner's detached garage, so it is secluded and quiet, yet secure with convenient parking on the adjacent driveway off of a private drive. Betsy was easy to contact, helpful, and very hospitable. She allowed us use of her beach chairs and also her family's kayaks that are kept at a scenic and tranquil nearby pond. The unit was also equipped with tourist information, games and CD's. The location was perfect, with just a short drive to town, several Cape beaches, and about 30 minutes to Provincetown at the tip of the Cape. Chatham has everything you need with nice restaurants and shopping and even a free band concert on summer Friday evenings in the middle of town. The apartment itself was exceptionally clean, well appointed, and nicely decorated in a nautical motif. The beds and other furniture were very comfortable. We enjoyed sleeping with the many large windows open due to the Cape's cool, pleasant nights. The kitchen area does not include an oven/range (but does have a microwave) and has only a mini fridge, but that was fine for us as we ate all of our meals out except for simple breakfasts in the unit. We were offered the use of a full size refrigerator/freezer at the bottom of the steps in the garage but didn't need it. We highly recommend this unit and it will be our preferred lodging if we ever return to the Cape!

A bit of paradise

If you are looking for a clean, beautifully designed big loft, this is the place. Four of us were very comfortable, and Betsy was the consummate host. WIlling to help in every way and gave us all the comforts of home. Area is very relaxing, peaceful and quiet, but 5 minutes to restaurants and beaches and downtown.

Great location for a short trip to Chatham

We had a lovely few days in Chatham and the Cape and this property was perfect for our needs. Betsy was a great host and gave us some wonderful ideas for activities and dinners. The pictures accurately show the space. It is one large room and my family of four did not feel cramped. I was happy there was not a full kitchen so that we truly enjoyed all the great dining in Chatham and beyond.

Thanks so much Betsy for your hospitality. It was a perfect place to get away. Loved the location, the space and the quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed taking our dog out on the pond for a kayak and Jack-knife beach was an awesome way to start each day.

Thumbs up

Had a good stay out in the cape. Perfect little get away. The property was very close to multiple beaches and downtown Chatham. Unfortunately the A/C was out of commission during our stay, which made one night a little uncomfortable. Overall we had a great time and would definitely stay again.

Should have option to give 6 stars

My wife and I, plus our very particular poodle, had an absolutely splendid stay in Betsy's charming, nautical-themed rental. It's a huge (1000 sf) loft-like space on full floor above a separated garage—windows on four sides so the breezes criss-cross throughout the space. Sleeping w windows open is a must for summer nights. And the rental is superbly equipped. Extras include: • bikes and helmets • beach toys • kayaks • use of an outdoor shower • an amazing stock of goods for tenant use—coffee, drinks, snacks, etc—(to be replaced before leaving) FYI, I know this territory. During 1990s I owned a small rental house in Chatham and always got return renters—but it was a bare-bones rental. I supplied NONE of the amenities listed above. So, in summation, six (6) stars for Betsy. You will be delighted if you visit.

Good location with short drive to beaches and downtown. Unit is over a garage with about a dozen steps. Sign at bottom asks you to "remove shoes before entering". Since I am already paying a cleaning fee, I chose to ignore it. Never met the hostess.

The house was perfect for our trip. When we visit the Cape Cod area we like to stay busy with outings during the day, and this place was perfect for us to spend our nights. It was also conveniently located to all the sites to see.

Chatham escape

Nestled in a prime location in Chatham, Betsy’s home has access all of the town’s charm. The well appointed carriage house where we stayed with our cats (who loved it) was a pleasure with its comforts and classic Cape style. Betsy offers all you’ll need to make your stay cozy and fun from beach chairs, kayaks and her invaluable suggestions on where to go around town. This trip was our first experience staying in Chatham as my spouse and I extended our trip from where we usually spend time on the Outer Cape off-season. We made an excellent choice and look forward to returning!

The location of the property is ideal for visitors as it has great access to surrounding towns, beaches, water & highways.
