We had a fantastic stay! The location can’t be beat with the beach and town just a 5 minute walk away. The home was very cozy, clean and had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. We also loved the backyard where we enjoyed our morning coffee. It was so nice we could bring our dog too who loved the fenced in yard. Howard was very helpful and communicative. We would love to return!

Lovely Location

We had a great week in this well-appointed home in Edgartown. We enjoyed the outdoor space a lot, including the grill, patio, and especially the outdoor shower - so peaceful. A great location for walking to Lighthouse Beach and to downtown.

Great location, clean and comfortable

House is beautiful- well stocked and clean. Beds were very comfortable as well as the couch in living room. Great location to walk into town or beach. Even the fenced in yard and outdoor shower were well maintained and beautiful. Howard was very accommodating considering our mishap of not bringing linens. Would definitely rent again!

Quaint house in perfect location!

We stayed here for a week in August and enjoyed the convenient location & tranquil back yard. You can walk or bike to town in minutes for dinner, shopping, or to board the Chappy ferry. The secluded back yard was nicely landscaped and a perfect spot for morning coffee. The outdoor shower was handy to rinse off sand after a beach day. The owner was very easy to communicate with and very helpful. We would visit again!

Charming Location in Edgartown

This charming cottage was very cozy and well appointed. It was the perfect location for strolling around downtown Edgartown, taking the ferry to Chappy, and exploring the island (with parking!). The backyard was very private and we enjoyed eating outside. The kids all loved the bunk beds and darling twin room. The outdoor shower was also a hit, and the shed had beach chairs and boogie boards. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you!

Hidden Treasure

This home was perfect for our stay in Edgartown. We were able to walk everywhere - in to the shops and restaurants, to the grocery and to the beach. It was very neat and clean. The yard was fenced and private with a nice table for eating outside. The host sent several messages giving us advice and making sure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was a wonderful trip!

Pretty cottage, wonderful spaces, and great location

We had a lovely stay at Howard"s Edgartown cottage. We enjoyed a large and comfortable family room, a spacious and private backyard and a well stocked kitchen complete with all the little do-dads you'd want to have to use but don't want to bring from home or buy (again). And all within a short 7 minute walk to the all that downtown Edgartown has to offer including shops and restaurants. Howard was also very generous with his knowledge of all the best places to go to on the Island - from where to get the best fresh locally grown produce to the best donuts you'll ever eat to where to rent and launch a kayak:) We certainly recommend this home for your Martha's Vineyard vacation.

Simply the best location

We have rented in MV every summer for the past 14 years and this house is at the top of our list. The location can’t be beat. The majority of our dinner reservations were at Edgartown restaurants and we could easily walk to them without the hassle of traffic and parking. The house is a 5-7 min leisurely walk into the center of Edgartown. Our teenage girls could easily walk into Edgartown anytime they wanted. We could stroll in for coffee or breakfast at Among the Flowers. Lighthouse beach is a 10 min walk. Most mornings I drove onto the Chappy ferry (2 blocks to the ferry line) and took our dog for our early morning walks on Wasque. We spent our beach days on Chappy driving on the beach with endless gorgeous coastline and privacy. The house was clean, well appointed and very comfortable. The beds were comfortable and the split units kept the house at a comfortable temperature. We loved the outdoor shower and cute fenced in backyard. Howard is an excellent host and is very easy to communicate with. I have the highest recommendations for this adorable home. Thank you for sharing it Howard!

Charm, comfort, and location!

As others have written, this is a charming house, and a very personal one. The ship models, the pewter, the local paintings, the old wooden floors—all add character and a sense of place. The house is obviously greatly loved and is well taken care of. It is attractively furnished and well equipped, and it has an exceptional layout, with lots of privacy. The back garden is a very pleasant place, and we found many toys in the shed for our toddler to enjoy. The location of could hardly be improved upon. The owner was exceptionally responsive and helpful, by the way. This is a house that I would gladly stay in for a few nights or for the entire summer, if only I could!

No Better Location on Martha's Vineyard

You can't get a better location than this house! Just a few scenic blocks to Edgartown or the beach--extremely walkable. Rent bikes and leave them parked in the very secure back yard. The house is AMAZING! It exudes charm at every corner, but it is modern where it needs to be. The kitchen is perfect for making some family meals when you don't want to go out. Bedrooms are spacious and nicely decorated with comfortable beds. Living Room has a large L-shaped couch perfect for watching movies at night with the family. The house is in pristine condition. Everything was spotless, in good working order, and neat. We would definitely stay here again!

Cozy Cottage

What a sweet, cozy place to stay, right in the heart of Edgartown! The house was comfortable, clean and well appointed. The beautiful backyard was a great place to read or share a glass of wine. The outdoor shower was wonderful, looking up at that beautiful tree overhead. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this house to any of my friends.

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this wonderful house in Edgartown. It’s the perfect location with town just a five-minute walk in one direction and Fuller beach in the other direction. Howard, the owner, is very nice and helpful and wants to make sure you enjoy your stay. We highly recommend this house and will be back!

Wonderful Edgartown cottage!

Howard's cottage was beautifully maintained and just steps from the middle of Edgartown. We sampled all the ice cream shops and enjoyed evenings out at the restaurants that were just steps from the door. Communication was top notch. The new outdoor shower was wonderful after a day out at South Beach. We look forward to staying here again soon!

Edgartown Charm

We just returned from a 3-night stay at this property. We loved the convenient location right in Edgartown (among the other lovely homes), the charm of the old home and the beautiful fenced-in, private yard. We also loved that we could have our little dog with us. Howard was excellent with communication throughout the process. We would definitely return.

Very cozy, and perfect location

A wonderful cottage in it's purest form. My family & I had a wonderful time at this place. Rarely used the car, given the great location. And the spaces, both indoors and outdoors, we're very inviting. Even had a cozy night watching the Bruins on the one day we had bad weather. Mostly, it was a perfect compliment to a week in Edgartown and out & about The Vineyard! We'll be back.

Perfect location for a perfect stay in Edgartown!

Howard’s home was absolutely perfect for our stay! The location can not be beat in terms of being right in town, walkable to everything in the Edgartown village. The home itself has so much character, it was exactly what we were looking for for a stay on Martha’s Vineyard. And it was completely stocked with anything you may need for your stay. Howard was an exceptional host - he gave us such detailed directions about everything in the home, as well as a ton of recommendations of things to do all around the island. His recommendation list was almost endless! Communication with him was always seamless. I would highly recommend staying at this home and would absolutely do so myself anytime I was returning to MV!
