Amazing Host, AMAZING HOME

We were in Nantucket for my son’s wedding and can’t imagine a better place to stay. Cheryl is a thoughtful and considerate host. She made us excited to stay in her home before we even arrived. The house is gorgeous, immaculate and stocked with everything you can possibly need. Wonderful home!

We had an amazing time with our 4 adult children and their significant others. The house was beautiful. Plenty of room. For people to escape for privacy and/or enjoy family time together. The backyard is an oasis. It is ideally located; just a short walk into town and to steps beach.

Loved this house!

We had an amazing 4 night stay at Cheryl and Peter's place in October and we were so so happy with everything! The house is immaculate and has so many great amenities! (Think three different coffee maker options and more!) The house also is the perfect walking distance to town and to our favorite sandwich place! We were sad we couldn't stay longer! Hope to be back again!

Cheryl your home is a DREAM

I can’t say enough about this property. Starting with Cheryl - we had a large group traveling to the island for our wedding. It was nearly impossible to find a home that fit us all comfortably on the dates we needed. Cheryl was beyond accommodating and made sure to make it work for us. The home is exactly how it is photographed. It’s clean , cozy but perfect for large groups , we had every room filled and it never once felt like we were on top of each other. We will absolutely be staying here again in the future! If you are considering this home, DO IT. It’s the perfect Nantucket dream house :)

The Most Beautiful Home

My friends and sisters and I stayed here for a girls weekend and the home was breathtaking! I’ve never been inside such a lovely and well decorated home. There were 9 of us and we had plenty of room. The house was well stocked with everything that we could possibly need. The location of the house was also great and we could easily walk down town and to the beach. Cheryl made the check in and check out process so easy and she answered any questions that we had. I highly recommend staying here!

Perfect stay at Nat Tuck Kat!

I can't say enough great things about our stay here. Everything was perfect! The communication with Cheryl was efficient and thorough. She went above and beyond preparing the home for our arrival and stay. The newly renovated home is situated perfectly on a quiet street with an easy walk to town. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Amazing family vacation

Cheryl & Peter- thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. We had two families comfortably in the house for an amazing August vacation. We have rented many houses in Nantucket and this was by far our best experience. Thank you again- we hope to come back next year!

Thank you John. We built the house for families like yours and ours...we hope you all will come back again. Just think of 8 Derrymore as “your Nantucket home away from home!” You all are the best! Cheryl and Peter

What a wonderful week! Cheryl and Peter were such attentive and accommodating hosts. They were flexible with our check in and check out times which was so helpful traveling with small kids. Peter even came to the house himself midweek to fix the TV when the cable went out so my nephew could watch the Rays v Yankees! The house was perfect in every way with a lovely layout for multiple families. It was an easy walk to town and jetties or Children’s beach. We loved grilling every night. Perfect in every way!!

Best house we’ve ever rented! Great location, beautifully appointed! 6 stars!!!

8 Derrymore is exactly as it’s pictured and more! Beautifully decorated, but super comfortable. It was perfect for our family and guests. There was everything we needed for cooking big meals; plenty of beach chairs, comfortable beds with plush linens and towels. The master suite is luxurious - we hated to leave. Peter and Cheryl are top- notch hosts and made sure everything was perfect.

Beautiful property with amazing owners and hosts!

8 Derrymore Ln is phenomenal, I have rented on the island many times and this by far was the best and most luxury property to date. Cheryl and Peter Barnes are the best hosts, they thought of everything to welcome our family and friends. The house has EVERYTHING you need. We will be staying many more times. Thank you!

Even more amazing than the pictures. Cheryl and Peter are super hosts!

This property is a dream house. It’s looks like a magazine home, but it’s also super comfortable. Cheryl and Peter attended to every detail. It’s clear that they use the house, unlike some other rental properties which have bare bones furnishings and amenities. I can’t wait to come back!

The house that was perfectly laid out, tidy, organized, labeled, bright, fully stocked.

I loved this house. We were two families; myself and my twin and our families) with children. We also had our parents visit for a few days. The way the house is laid out really accommodated the privacy factor yet the common space invited lots of together time. Everything was labeled for easy use and the kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked. Bed were extremely comfortable and the bathrooms were spa like. The property owners were very thoughtful with a welcome packet. You really felt like they were proud of their house and so happy to share it with you. I give this house a double thumbs up and will DEFINATELY rent again if they will have us.

Beautiful new family home.

We just enjoyed a wonderful week in Nantucket. The highlight was getting to spend it with our family in this lovely home. The kids enjoyed the upstairs bedroom/game room and the entire family enjoyed the family spaces including the back patio, outdoor dining and seating area and barbecue. Fine linens and towels were a really nice touch. Located on a nice quiet street yet still an easy walk to town. Perfect!

Prettier than the pictures !!!

This property is an elegant oasis. We were so impressed with the owner's instruction manual for us and we fully understood how to operate all appliances, smart TV's, windows, etc. This home is equipped with the best of the best of everything!!! The location is within walking distance to the downtown area and several beaches. Whenever I had a question, a reply was sent to me within minutes from the owners. They thought of everything including a full service coffee bar, reading glasses, USB charger for your cell phones and other electronics, wine refrigerator, detergents, beach towels and chairs, extra gas for the grill and fire pit and the most comfortable beds we have ever slept in. We had a full house including a 13 month old and 2 teenagers occupying every bedroom and never felt crowded. The outdoor patio and dining areas were a favorite spot and well used. We will definitely rent this property again when we return to Nantucket. Ray and Bobbie K. Plymouth, Ma
