Parking information
During peak hours at town beaches, parking stickers are required. Of course, most of our properties are directly on or within easy walking distance of private, neighborhood association beaches, so no pass is required. For those properties that aren’t right on or within walking distance, a pass is necessary. You can stop by the town offices to pick up a weekly pass or pay per visit. Beach passes are issued by vehicle and are not transferable.

Reviews
Kristen
Very clean and new. Upscale everything in this house. Flowing layout with 2 sitting rooms. Loved being next to the lighthouse and across the street from beach access. Truly a gem. Enjoyed my morning coffee out in the Adirondack chairs in front yard. So peaceful. Very close to the road but not an issue for us. Been to Chatham several times always in mid October. I would imagine it's lovely in summer but very busy. This was very chill. Enjoyed the Fall color and less crowds. Management company very responsive.
