While renting this property, you can walk 1/5th of a mile to Hardings Beach within the private neighborhood, and follow the path over the sand dunes down to the beach. Hardings beach has a lifeguard during the summer months, and is safe for young children. There are few waves at this beach and the water is relatively warm because it is protected by the Nantucket Sound. Kids will have fun catching sand crabs, following the sand dune paths and building sand castles. You don't have the extreme low tides and high tides you can experience on the Bay side of Cape Cod. You can swim, fly a kite, or walk on the beach for a mile to Oyster River or to Stage Harbor Lighthouse. This beach is surrounded by Cape Cod sand dunes and the beach and ocean-side neighborhood are beautiful and peaceful

Family holiday June 2012

I recently stayed at Harding's Beach House with my husband and our 2 year old son. We had an absolutely wonderful time, hugely down to this wonderful house. The house was spotless, very well maintained and very tastefully decorated. The house is spacious and would easily accommodate 4 adults plus 2-3 children in comfort. The house is also well equipped and the owners really have thought of everything to help make your stay comfortable. We stay in rental homes regularly as we have a young child and this is easily one of the best. The owners, Keith and Linda, were very helpful and friendly, answered any questions we had quickly and fully. Excellent customer service. Chatham itself is a lovely town. It has some lovely restaurants and shops that are well worth visiting. We would also recommend a boat trip to Nantucket Island, which we thought was beautiful. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to spend some time in Cape Cod and we hope to return in the not too distant future!

Great location and lovely home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house is in a great location with easy access to Harding’s Beach. It’s also a short ride into Chatham. The house is cozy and comfortable, very clean and well maintained and equipped with everything we needed. We also enjoyed a “bicycle built for two” that the hosts made available!

About the host

Why they chose this property

This is a classic New England Cape Cod house in a peaceful, oceanside-side neighborhood. The perfect getaway for making memories in Chatham. We love that you can walk to the beautiful white sandy beach of Hardings Beach, and walk to the Stage Harbor Lighthouse by following the path for a mile behind the sand dunes. Walk to the left of the lighthouse, and you’ll arrive at an amazing ocean inlet beach, usually only accessed by boat. You can also walk to Barn Hill landing on Oyster River where you can watch lobster boats, fish off the dock, collect seashells, or catch crabs in a crab trap.

This home was originally owned and built by a schoolteacher, Alice Dobbins. She asked her middle school students to research and design an original Cape Cod house—-and she built this house based on their design! The original staircase to the upstairs was accessed through a closet and had a rope for a railing. While we did add a dormer upstairs to finish the attic space into two bedrooms, we took care to not change the footprint of the original house or to change the original classic Cape Cod design.

The walk to the beach is about 10 minutes. There's a beach cart and all the beach gear you'll need. You walk past nine houses to get to the private neighborhood path down the sand dunes to Hardings Beach.
