Property Description
** We've just completed a major renovation of Ship's Light! Having stood the test of time for almost 200 years, the house now has a new foundation, upgraded systems and a modified floor plan. We've worked had to maintain the character and charm of the antique home, while bringing it up to modern standards. We can't wait for renters to experience the results for the 2025 summer season and beyond! The Gifford-Buck apartment has undergone significant changes as a result of the renovation. Check out the new photos, but note that reviews prior to July 2025 are of the old apartment.** The largest of the four apartments, the Gifford-Buck apartment is a comfortable first-floor, 5-room, 2 bedroom, 2 bath gem. Airy and light, the large living room with an electric fireplace and smart-TV occupies the center of the house. The dining room seats 8 and connects to a beautiful full-sized kitchen--or eat and relax on the quiet side yard patio with picnic tables and area seating. The apartment is fully heated and airconditioned via solar-powered heat pumps. Two bedrooms--one with a queen-sized bed and private bath and one with two twins, near the main bath, make this apartment perfect for a family. The apartment also includes a stackable washing machine and dryer off the kitchen. The charm of the apartment is further enhanced by the warm glow of wide pine floors and wainscoting. Wi-fi is available throughout the house. The house is equipped with two Level 2 EV chargers for use by renters. Ship’s Light has looked down Cross Street to Chatham Village Center for almost 200 years. Built and occupied by some of Chatham’s most eminent residents since 1825, it was converted to four housekeeping apartments for summer visitors circa 1945. Lovingly restored by long-time current owners, this gracious antique home offers modern comfort and convenience with the character and charm of a bygone era. Centrally located within a short walking distance of excellent Chatham dining, shopping, movies and band concerts, the house is three blocks from the town salt water beach on Oyster Pond, and one mile from Coast Guard Beach, a great stretch of Atlantic Ocean and dunes. Many individuals, couples and extended families consider Ship’s Light their vacation home. We invite you to join them in making your vacation something special. The Gifford-Buck apartment at Ship’s Light is rented for longer stays during the summer and and for minimum 2-night stays during the shoulder and off-seasons. Other units with unique features are also available and the whole house can be rented as a 5 bedroom home for family gatherings.

Unique property We really enjoyed being walking distance to Chatham‘s main street. The unit itself was very roomy for our family of four, and we appreciated having two bathrooms. Our preference for future stays would probably be a more modern property, but especially if you want the historic feel of Cape Cod, this is a great choice.

Beautiful two bedroom apartment with all the amenities. Located within walking distance of downtown Chatham, and the local park, which just so happened to be hosting an art festival while we were there. The park also includes the Chatham windmill, which was having live demonstrations of the mill producing cornmeal while we were there.

Ship's Light House set in quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed walks to nearby Park and homes. Also, close to Main Street. We appreciated reading the booklet on the History of the house and how its been lovingly preserved! Thank-you for a Special stay!

Memorial Day week at Ship's Light Thank you for this amazing stay! The location is absolutely ideal, near a pond, the sea, Chatham town, in the middle of the cape so near everything. The house is absolutely lovely and set for everything needed to relax- outside reading, inside in the living room, the kitchen well equipped... we wish to plan a return visit. Thank you!

End of summer getaway We wanted an end-of-summer getaway before the start of the new school year and found the Gifford Buck apartment available. It had everything we needed and so close to Main Street with all the shops and eateries. The owners were very responsive, though we didn't need anything during our stay. Quiet, calm pond nearby if you have smaller kids but mine are older so we walked to Lighthouse Beach. This house has history and I would love to see what the other apartments look like. Another time!

Renovations are complete/wonderful. This is the second time I’ve stayed at this property and all aspects of our stay have been 10/10 both times. Amenities/communication from the host are excellent. Location is top notch…walk to both town and beaches. Can’t wait to stay again.
