We had a wonderful stay, I can't say enough great things about the house, location, and overall experience!! It was a perfect weekend getaway/change of scenery during covid even though we knew the weather would still be cold. The house is 1.5 blocks from the sand so it was easy for my 2 and 4 yr old to walk there, even with their beach toys. And the center of town (and candy shop, yum) is less than a mile away so my 4 yr old could easily follow us walking there on his scooter. There is not a sidewalk but the road had very few cars (on a cold spring weekend, may be busier in the summer). The kids were also able to handle a walk on the sand all the way to the Chatham fish pier and back so that was great! The beach was full of shells, rocks, little crabs, and stuff to keep them occupied for hours :)
The house was great for kids and there is a pack and play and some kid gates which really saved the day!! The "kids" room was perfect for them. And the upstairs bathtub was SO fun for them! very deep so kept their splashing was contained and I could easily "hose" them off with the moveable shower handle. I suggest bringing a suction-cup slip mat.
The home is beautifully decorated with some gorgeous but breakable pieces, so I moved those out of reach of the kids.
The deck and backyard were also great spaces for them to run around safely while we could keep an eye out.
and the house had all the comforts of home, plus some cool extras like a heat vent in the bathroom :) the owners were easy to communicate with and everything was very stress-free and straightforward.
It was a cold spring weekend so I can't comment on the air conditioning, outdoor grill, etc, but the heat system was easy to use, and worked perfectly, and the kitchen and bathrooms were exactly as described, squeaky clean, had everything we needed, and were beautiful. And the retro kitchen is so cool!
We had an absolutely wonderful time and can't wait to come back in the summertime :)
