We had a great time at this location. The house was exactly we needed. There was a ton of space and a perfect amount of bathrooms. It was relaxing, private, and very comfortable.
4.0
We had a wonderful yearly family trip! Fantastic location and a really fun house with a nice cottage feel. The only small issue we had with this property was the beds and hence the overall 4 star rating. Would have given a 4.5 if there was an option for it. Most of them were exceedingly firm mattresses and i'd recommend upgrading that or providing some toppers for the firm ones. Also, the pillows left quite a bit to be desired. I know we can bring our own, but dont expect to do that usually with a rental like this. Suggest a few different types thrown in for choices. Otherwise this is a great property and we enjoyed the layout and also really liked the deck.
5.0
Lots of conveniences in the house. Worked well for our family group of 11 adults. Lots of beds and bathrooms. No en-suite bathrooms. Enjoyed a good variety of tasty seafood nearby. Nice, relaxing beaches nearby. Easy (midweek) drive to Provincetown. Everyone in shops and restaurants in Chatham was helpful and accommodating.

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house! The house is very spacious with lots of bedrooms, bathrooms and a cozy living room area.
The patio is big and the view amazing.
The house was extremely clean and the check in couldn’t have been easier.
I would definitely recommend staying here!

This house was simply perfect for our large family weekend with three generations. It had ample room, great sleeping arrangements, very clean and everything we needed. The deck was spectacular. We enjoyed sitting out in the sun enjoying coffee during the morning. The additional swing space allowed the kids and adults to each have their own hang out area and having two kitchens/two fridges was amazing. The photos don't do it justice.
The location can't be beat with being close to downtown Chatham and Harwichport. Hardings beach was great too.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a large house with a great location.

Served as a perfect base camp for a group of 10 golfers. Great communication with the owner and the weekend went off without a hitch.

The property is very accommodating. We had everything we need it. We had a couple of seniors with mobility issues in our group so the downstairs bedrooms and bathrooms were a necessity. The property was very clean. Too bad for us that we didn’t have enough time to enjoy it more since we were attending a wedding in the town

7 guys in our 50’s stayed for a reunion fishing weekend on the Cape. Great location, nice place. Could hold a very large crew. Was perfect for our weekend and Kibbi was terrific to deal with. Would definitely recommend for a large group get together.

We recently stayed at this property and could not have been more pleased. The house was so clean and accommodated many guests which was amazing! Highly recommend as the location is perfect, just a few minutes from Hardings beach and close to town. Will definitely be staying here in the future if it is available.

We loved our time at this beautiful home. A perfect place from which to enjoy beaches and forest walks, and to gather for meals and games and time together as a family.

We stayed here with a work group of about twelve adults and loved it. Super spacious, the living room and deck are wonderful, and location near Chatham main street plus proximity to beaches was amazing. We had the best time!

No reservations about La Reserve
Our group was 10 adults, which was four couples and two singles. We all had lots of good options for sleeping arrangements and there were plenty of bathrooms and showers for a group of this size. In addition, there is a very large dining room table at which people plugged into work as necessary or did some gaming. The living area is large and comfortable and we all hung out there to relax and catch up. We ate most of our meals out, but the kitchen is very well stocked and really would be great if you were cooking in.
Everyone enjoyed their stay, plenty of privacy balanced with outstanding common spaces, clean and convenient!

West Chatham retreat
The house was comfortable and had everything we needed for a great early summer stay. The views of the water were calming and the neighborhood very quiet. Great location in West Chatham. Communicating with Kibibi was easy. We look forward to coming back.

Great stay!!
We had a great time celebrating my sister’s birthday and upcoming wedding! The property was perfect and fit 19 of us comfortably. The owner was responsive and very helpful throughout the weekend. The property was also clean and the fact that towels/sheets were provided made our stay that much better. I highly recommend glamping here!!

3-Generation Family Reunion
Everyone in our group loved the location and the house. We visited local and farther out beaches, strolled through town, used the kayaks on the river, and visited several museums/science centers.
The age range for our group is 4 to 70+ and there was something for everyone. The house has a wonderful deck overlooking the Oyster River and lots of indoor space for dancing, theatrics, kids games.

Great place for family reunion
The house is great and everything is perfect. I’ll recommend this facility to anyone.

Great Location - Spacious accommodations for large groups.
Great house for large groups/family gatherings. Has everything you need for from cooking supplies to board games.
My only reservation would be having to set up all the beds/linens upon your arrival and before you leave, seems like this would be a service provided by the house given the amount a guest is paying to stay there.

This is a beautiful home that is large enough to host a family reunion of 20 - 25 people. The back deck that overlooks the water, is a great place to hang out and the gas fireplace is awesome for chilly evenings. The kayaks were a big hit with the chidren.We hope to return again sometime.

This was a terrific house for a large group. The two kitchens came in very handy as well. We enjoyed our stay here. It's convenient to the downtown area as well as the beach. It also overlooked a quiet harbor.

Beautiful house in quiet area, VERY Cape Cod :)
I shared this house with my family and friends the weekend of my wedding. It is beautiful and spacious and we all had a blast. Betsey was extremely accommodating and so easy to work with!! I am from the Cape as is she, so we both cherish being able to share the experience of Cape living with others. They take great pride in this home. If I ever have another get together I wouldn't hesitate to rent. Thank you so much!!

Great week in Chatham!
We had a great week at 14 Squanto! It was perfect for our group of various ages. The house is in a great spot and it is so clean and spacious. We loved sitting out on the deck. Betsey was amazing and helped us with all our questions. We loved the seal tour she recommended. We hope to be able to stay there again next year!

Serene retreat
We have stayed at this property for a couple years now, and love it. We searched over many years for properties large enough to accommodate our large group (15-20 spanning young children to greying). Plenty of parking, bedrooms, and baths for large groups (multiple families), with roomy shared spaces for eating and relaxing together. This past stay, there was some rain, but even stuck in a house all day was relaxing and not claustrophobic as in some rentals. The beaches nearby are great (a little more protected in terms of waves), and plenty of good eats if needing to eat out on occasions. Kitchen is well stocked for sit-down meals. Also, the owners are wonderful and helped us accommodate some circumstances; they really care about the property and it shows.

Terrific Setting!!!
Every day was perfect! We kept discovering new favorite places within and outside the house! Kayaking, beach, yoga, puzzles, movies, and fabulous meals created with love in super well equipped kitchens! 20 people total attended our family reunion - coming from NY, PA, OR, ME, CO, MA, OH, CT - some stayed a few days, and others the whole week! What a great setting for a wonderful week!

Wedding Reunion
Our family feels so fortunate to have found this beautiful property! My sister was married in early June followed by a gathering in Chatham for a special family reunion. My parents were able to somewhat relax before the wedding, and REALLY relax afterward, reminiscing with extended family from all over the country! Our family really appreciates good food, wine, laughter and comfort. This home fit the bill perfectly! We felt blessed with the beautiful wedding, the well-equipped accommodations - and the weather! Highly recommended!

Vintage charmer
Perhaps the best part about renting this home was feeling as though I was staying in a friend's home. The owner couldn't have been more helpful, accomodating and friendly! I was able to actually tour the home long before our scheduled arrival and knew it would be just perfect for our out of town family and friends attending our daughter's wedding. A welcome bottle of wine was an unexpected delight! How many owners do that??? Our friends and family who stayed here raved about the views, the open gathering spaces, the access to kayaking and all of the outdoor decks where all could take in the beautiful view together. The rustic style and comfortable decor provided the perfect place to gather and share good times! I highly recommend this property!

Chatham Just Perfect!
So much fun! Too much time passes between family reunions and you forget how important they are! 16 of us rearranged our busy schedules for a "must do" gathering on Cape Cod. Friends recommended Chatham and they were right! We had never been to Chatham before and delighted in its laid-back, fisherman lifestyle. Lots of magnificent fancy new homes, but a vintage charm dotted by antique cottages and quaint shops. A worthy history lesson for all of us! Everything to do, yet nothing to do. Perfect!! The house was amazing, everything we wanted and more, and we recommend it highly. This was a great place to gather where you also had your space and privacy.

Strong Women
There once was a strong group of women who worked together, and were in desperate need for a retreat. So they boarded planes, originating in many different cities and made a trek to the Cape. The festivities began with a meal shared by all, good food and conversation ensued. There were many dance parties & a lot of laughter, games, heart-to-heart sharing, sealing the bond of the group of strong women! Long journeys on the local roads, by walk or run, taking in the lovely sights. This morning we depart back to the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, awaiting the time we are together again! This was absolutely perfect – we enjoyed our time immensely! The house was everything we needed and more! OH, MO, VA, VA, KY, IL, PA, LA, NJ

We have decided that we are going to spend a week (or more?) on Cape Cod every summer from here on out. This was our first trip to this terrific place. Even though our large group made enough memories in one week to last a lifetime, we want more!! It's not easy to get family from all over the country to travel far and want to do it again. What wonderful family time we had at this special place - so comfortable, clean, impressively stocked and well thought out. The beds were comfy, the amenities perfect, the water view delightful, and the property was spacious enough inside and out to gather or to spread out. We loved the ocean harbor view from the deck, the national seashore beaches, fishing for stripers & blues, kayaking, biking, games in the yard, peaceful walks, and swimming at incredible Hardings Beach! All in all, wonderful! We have found our new go-to place!
