Welcome to Camp Moonpenny- a 6 acre property in the Sears Point area of Chatham. While only 2 miles from Main Street attractions and popular beaches, there is so much to do on site you might decide just to stay close to home. Play on land and water all day, enjoy sunset cocktails overlooking Nantucket Sound and Stage Harbor Lighthouse or even catch your own clams and oysters off the shore. There's use of an on-site har-tru clay tennis court, bocce & horseshoe courts; a boathouse deck for picnics or cocktails; access to Oyster Pond River (near Stage Harbor) for dog friendly walks, shellfishing, sand castle building, bird watching and more. Want to explore Chatham by water? Bring or rent kayaks/SUPs with storage steps from the shore or make a special arrangement and supplemental fee to use our dock and bring your own boat (up to 20ft).
