About this property

3 bed 3 bath. Premium linens provided. Pet friendly

When you arrive you will find that our architect maximized light, air and views, with great flow from the upstairs vaulted bedroom ceilings to the open plan downstairs. The spacious front and back decks overlook seasonal gardens with gorgeous landscaping and neighboring woods. From daffodils to hibiscus, rose of sharon to japanese maple, we designed our organic gardens for lots of color throughout the spring, summer, and fall seasons, attracting abundant wildlife.

We are in a great location. Walk along protected wetlands to lovely Forest Beach, where you can find your own stretch of sand away from the crowds. Osprey and plover nesting areas in the wetlands and dunes are thriving. A half mile walk behind the dunes ends in a tidal estuary. It's also a short stroll in the other direction to a great cafe/bar and wonderful upscale restaurant. After jogging, biking or enjoying the beach we have a lovely very private outdoor shower for you to wind down.

We are pet friendly so bring your WHOLE family on your next vacation. We have a $175 pet fee.

Each of the three bedrooms has its own bathroom, TV, DVD, and radio/Iphone port. We have two separately zoned central air and heating systems (one upstairs and one downstairs) for your year round comfort.
The master suite has a tempurpedic queen bed and full bath. The other two bedrooms can be made up as twin sets or king, and contain all new pillow top mattresses with hotel quality linens. There is a ping pong table in our basement rec-room/art studio, and even beach chairs and towels are provided.

Our home is also handicap accessible, complying as much as was possible to ADA requirements on the entire first floor. Both front and back decks are wheelchair accessible. The downstairs bedroom flows into a shower bathroom with grab bars and also grab bars around the toilet. The upstairs back bathroom with shower also has grab bars. The upstairs bedrooms have a lofty feel with lots of windows and light.
We welcome well-behaved dogs. We just ask that you pick up your pet poo please for the folks who follow you.

Our living room has two six foot sofas, two comfy club chairs and an extensive library for all ages. This is a great room to entertain and enjoy a book, game, or bingewatch movies with a nice fire. This space flows into a brand new cook's kitchen, fully equipped with whatever you may need for any kind of feast. We have ample dishware and cookware for you and all your guests - no foraging for a corkscrew here! All of our appliances are top quality, including an extra full size refrigerator/freezer in the basement for your overflow drinks and produce.

An eight to ten minute walk from our front door leads you to Forest Beach on Nantucket Sound for swimming, birding, and water sports. If you want to drive your gear down there, parking is free. Following Forest Beach or the marsh path towards Chatham town, you will find our beautiful estuary. Watch the tides come and go, enjoy the shells and other ocean treasures at low tide. Go the other way on Forest Beach Road and you can easily walk to the Talkative Pig restaurant, Pisces Restaurant, the Cape Cod bicycle path and Highway 28. A ten minute drive takes you to the Cape Cod National Seashore and all kinds of beaches, both fresh and salt water ponds, and eateries.

We also enjoy a small public park with a large meadow behind it, a five minute walk from our front door, which includes a tennis court, basketball hoop, and jungle gym for the little ones. Our neighborhood is quiet and safe, with woodsy shortcuts between beaches and plenty of nature for the whole family to explore. Our own gardens are organically grown and we include numerous native plants as well as the old favorites, with a nice lawn and eye for seasonal color changes.
Our expansion of the original family home has created a wonderful and workable vacation getaway, where groups can gather for fun and scatter for privacy. In addition to the three bathrooms, we have a spacious outside shower with ramp and grab bars, and there is ample off street parking.

The ping pong rec room in our basement shares the space with a large laundry area and art studio with lots of natural light.

At every turn we have provided for our renters all those comforts that we ourselves enjoy, with amenities that will exceed your every expectation. Once you have experienced Paul & Mary's Place, you'll never want to go anywhere else.

Cape Cod Sanctuary!

All of my friends and family enjoyed staying at this Cape Cod home! It was the perfect set up for my handicap father, the ramp was a big plus going into the home.. that is rare to come by! We will definitely be staying at this home again because it was perfect for a family for a week on the Cape!

Great location with a beach in walking distance

Lovely quiet neighborhood and a beach within easy walking distance. One of Chatham’s best restaurants is also within walking distance and the town of Chatham is a quick drive away. Plenty of clean extra towels, dishes, glassware etc for a large group to stay. Nice outdoor porch with a gas grill. Very nice for a family stay.

Great stay on the Cape

Three generations enjoyed our stay in this spacious home. The layout was perfect to give everyone plenty of space. It’s just a short walk down to the beach to enjoy the sunrise and sunset and a short ride to enjoy the shops in downtown Chatham or watch the daily catch come in at the Chatham Fish Pier.

3 generations of Family

The house is exactly as presented, lovely gardens and two decks. The back deck afforded great privacy which was a pleasant surprise. The neighborhood is conducive for leisurely walking. The house inside was perfect because each family unit had their own bathroom and good size room. Kitchen was a great size also with everything needed. The proximity to the beach is quite close, easily walkable, but also with available parking spots (no fee!) A nice plus was that downstairs were beach toys as well as all kinds of toys for children (grandchild loved the Duplo Legos). Will definitely stay again!

Nice getaway in South Chatham

We enjoyed a long weekend at this house in South Chatham. Thw location is convenient to the beach and bike trail and we used the tennis court that’s a few houses down the street. The kitchen and bathrooms seem newly renovated and the house had all the supplies we could need. Our only issue was the smell of dogs in the living room.

Perfect peaceful house

We had a great time in this house and in Chatham, our first visit to Chatham but 4th to the Cape. The house had everything we needed, and the deck and gardens made for a relaxing stay! Very comfortable all around, and our toddler appreciated the toys and room to explore in the basement. The short walk to Forest Beach was a favorite. We will definitely return!

Stay at S Chatham Home

This was a wonderful family vacation. My 2 grown sons and my grandson with our significant others. Check in was simple, seamless. Communication with host timely. The neighborhood is very peaceful. We had many beach options, played golf, shopped and had many close be restaurants(drifters was our favorite and so close by). We had a 16 month old and we managed to find lots to do. 3 baths was great to keep our privacy. Back deck was great. We had a small issue and Martha was gracious and apologetic. We can tell she is conscientious and caring to share her home! Thank you Martha, we made such special memories.

Pleasant place

A nice quiet neighborhood. Great house for both my husband and I to stay downstairs and my grandkids and parents to stay upstairs. Lots of bathrooms too. Nice big kitchen and living room with a deck. Walk to the beach which wasn’t crowded. Beautiful area with lots of great restaurants and shops a short drive away. The basement needs a new dehumidifier, but we enjoyed the ping pong down there anyway. Loved the giant orange octopus painted on the wall down there.

Forest Beach Chatham

A wonderful location so close to the beach down the road! Very pretty and private! Harding's' Beach and Cockle Cove Beach near by too with restrooms. The cleaning staff missed some things for the owners such as dust and spider webs on wall light fixtures, garbage receptacles in the kitchen need to be wiped down. Some cosmetic cleaning such as deck railings. The backdoor is tricky to lock and it should be looked into. Overall, a nice spot.

Fabulous Place, Location, Owner

We spent 10 days here and had a fabulous time. The house is spotless and exceptionally well provisioned; it had everything we needed, and more. Bedding, towels, furniture, and bathrooms are like new. Forest Beach is a short walk away; Red River Beach is a 3 minute drive; Harding's Beach a 5 minute drive. The bike path is just across Rt 28. Chatham and Harwich are short drives. We spent lots of time on the back porch which is very private and gets lots of sun all day long. Again, we had a great time and the owner, Martha, was a joy to deal with. We highly recommend it.

Great Winter Getaway

I took a chance with a group of friends (all 30+) and we tried out a winter getaway weekend on the Cape. Martha's place was the perfect escape from the city and a great fit for us. The house was meticulously clean and welcoming, and Martha was sure to check in with me by email over the course of the weekend just to make sure everything was to our liking. There was plenty of space for six of us (plus a dog!) to cook meals, drink wine, and hang out by the fireplace. The beach was a short walk down the street and a sunny winter beach walk was definitely a highlight of the weekend. Some nice restaurants are also within short walking distance. I would highly recommend this home and working with Martha!

Off-season stay

We loved this house!!! My daughter and her friends were on a 4-day college break so my husband and I found this lovely house in Chatham. It was perfect. The girls slept, ate, and watched the ecletic selection of movies in the house. Martha checked in with me a couple of times via email to make sure we had everything we needed. We are from California and it was our first visit to Cape Cod. We liked the quiet, off-season feel. Most restaurants were open and there were plenty of things to do. Suggestions for first time visitors to Cape Cod - especially if you arrive after dark: DO NOT rely solely on Google or Apple map applications. It was easy enough to find the house but not so easy to find the huge (but new) grocery store in Harwich, a few miles away. Get your bearings on paper maps before you go.

Great Stay in Chatham!

My family flew in from the midwest and west coast to explore Cape Cod. We were very happy with our stay at, "Mary & Paul's Place". As we drove up the house had fresh flowers planted and a well maintained lawn. The house has a very welcoming living room with plenty of places to sit and hang out. The kitchen is beautiful with windows that overlook the backyard. I thought we would eat out more but the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook. After a busy day out and about we would just come back, cook and relax. Beds are very comfortable, lots of towels, and house is clean and updated. The owner Martha is very easy to work with when I made our reservations. Lovely neighborhood to walk around and easy walk to beach to explore. Downtown Chatham is a 5 minute drive with lots of restaurants and shops. We took the ferry over to Nantucket for the day. Lots of shops and restaurants. It is interesting to just walk around and check out the historical houses. I recommend a trip to the JFK Museum in Hyannis, then go and have lunch down by the water. Cape Cod has so much to explore. We will return!

Our Thanksgiving getaway

This was absolutely the best vacation rental we have ever experienced. The owner was thorough, charming, easily available, well-organized and a great hostess (even from afar). Everything promised in the description was there and more. It was exactly as we anticipated from the pictures but better in person. It was prepared and ready for us -- sparkling clean with directions neatly hidden inside many of the wonderfully stocked cabinets. Our rental was our home away from home for four days and had every comfort, amenity and item that we needed and even some we did not know we needed until we found it there. The home comes with a handbook which explains everything. Still if there are questions the owner is just a phone call away and very responsive. There is so much to see and do in Chatham and the beach in South Chatham is splendid; especially in the off season. We have two standard poodles who gave the home "all paws up and voted yes for returning. We felt coddled, comforted and entertained. We had a wonderful vacation and will definitely come again next Thanksgiving and at other times during the year as it is only three and 1/2 hours from our home but absolutely a world away!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. We feel lucky to have found your home.

Much to like a lot, some (perhaps early season) blips

Good location, good space, and a great kitchen that truly did have everything. Made cooking together fun. Also very well cleaned, and the towels are good quality. Great kitchen appliances with a good ice maker...but beware, tge fancy oven takes forever to get to temperature! :-) We did have trouble getting TVs to work (they just shifted from cable to fire sticks/internet and didn't seem to really know how to make it work --no how-to instructions yet), toiletries were minimal/missing and, while the assistant manager was very responsive online, primary help lived far away so hands-on help was minimal....but! Nice neighbors came by to try to help with TV issue. We had great weather, and sitting out on the deck, with the sun on us, was terrific!

About the host

Hosted by Martha Newman

Host profile image
I am an artist, mostly painter, specializing in wildlife, such as endangered species, and pet portraits. I have been lucky to enjoy both coasts, living most of the year in Redondo Beach California.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I inherited the original home from his family and we began our remodeling in 2007.

What makes this property unique

Mostly I enjoy the fresh water pond swimming - this is not to be had where I live in LA and I love watching the trout and turtles swimming around in that spring fed environment. I also adore eating seafood and the Cape has the best. At this time of the year we are known world-wide for the unique "Cape Light" that photographers prize. Check out the way light bounces off the tidal flow as it makes the shore.
My husband enjoys the walking trail behind the dunes at the end of Forest Beach Road that has sweeping views of the tidal wetlands. It has a lot of protected nesting spots for large and small birds. It ends at an estuary that runs into Taylor Pond, a quiet peaceful respite with only the sounds of gulls and waves on the beach.
