Chatham Bars Inn

Cape Cod is one of the United States most magical getaways, encompassing 17th-century towns and the stunning National Seashore. First settled in 1665, Chatham occupies an enviable location between the Upper and Lower Cape, with some of the region’s most pristine shorelines. Chatham Bars Inn, Chatham’s most venerable resort, open year-round, was originally built in 1914 and made the most of its beautiful location.

The property overlooks a private quarter-mile beach and offers a complimentary water shuttle to the National Seashore. Everything, from the elegant interiors and colorful gardens to the gracious staff and acclaimed restaurants and spa, is top-notch. This resort has been a favorite of generation for the relaxed ambiance that facilitates a blissful return to summer’s simple pleasures: beach walks, clambakes, sailing, and quality time with family and friends.

Once upon a time, affluent New Englanders spent their summers at a grand oceanfront resort. There, they splashed in the surf, played golf in the tangy sea air, took afternoon tea on the wide veranda overlooking panoramic ocean vistas, and dined on the best New England cuisine, featuring fresh-from-the ocean seafood. Today, you can enjoy the resort lifestyle as so many did, so long ago, at Chatham Bars Inn, New England's Grand Oceanfront Resort. Lovingly restored to its original grandeur yet completely updated with the latest amenities, Chatham Bars Inn sits on 25 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds and sandy ocean beaches.

Ranging from a historic guestroom in the Main Inn to an ocean view cottage two-bedroom master suite complete with fireplaces, steam shower, dining area, and wet bar, there is room to meet any desire. Cottage accommodations vary from one-bedroom suites to 18 individual guestrooms. Many families enjoy selecting an entire cottage to meet their needs or connecting rooms, which provide convenience and privacy. Nearly all of the 217 guestrooms vary in size and décor.
