EVERGREEN ESCAPE: Private Cottage close to South Shore Beaches
This cozy cottage located in the mid-island area of Nantucket was completely renovated in the spring of 2018. The cottage has two bedrooms and a loft. It is ideal for 2 couples and/or a family of up to 5. Evergreen Escape is located less than a mile from the airport and is a few minutes' drive to Nobadeer and Surfside Beach. Stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher and a stove with a gas cooktop were installed as well as a whole house Air Conditioning System. The cottage has a private back yard, an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach and a gas grill for late afternoon or evening cookouts. The SONOS stereo system makes listing to music a breeze. Because the cottage is centrally located on the island, nothing is too far away but I highly recommend renting a car to make the most of what the island has to offer. *Please note that you need to climb a ships ladder to access the loft bedroom.

Located in Nantucket, this cottage is near the beach. The Old Mill and Hadwen House are local landmarks, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Nantucket Ferry Terminal and Miacomet Golf Course. Theatre Workshop of Nantucket and Vestal St Observatory are also worth visiting. Kayaking and scuba diving offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hunting and mountain biking nearby.
From start to finish this was a perfect Nantucket getaway. Cottage was lovely and convenient and Owner was wonderful. Hope to return many times.

Thank you Chris for the review. It was a pleasure meeting you and I would be happy to rent to your family again in the future. You were ideal renters....treating the cottage like your own home!
House had it all with attentive landlord and easy access to beach and town. Very clean, cool, and well thought out for a weekend or week. If you are willing to forgo looking at the water, this is excellent relative value versus what Nantucket has to offer..

I’m so happy you & your family loved Evergreen Escape and it met your expectations! It was a pleasure meeting you upon departure. Hope to see you again & thank you for the positive review!
The property met expectations and beyond. We had everything we needed. The owners did a beautiful job with the renovation. It's close to town, the beaches and the airport. The owner was very responsive and I even had the opportunity to meet her. She was very nice and helpful.

Thank you very much for the review. It was a pleasure having your family at the cottage. I hope you come back again!
Just returned from a wonderful 10 days on Nantucket Island. The cottage was absolutely perfect. It was new and clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. It is decorated beautifully and Lorri, the host, was exceptionally accommodating. The cottage is centrally located on the island so it was easy to get everywhere. Lorri provided great dining recommendations too! Beach towels, chairs, tables, outdoor shower and grill were provided so we were able to travel lighter that usual and trips to the beach were simple. We will definitely come back!

Thank you so much for the positive review! It was a pleasure having your family stay at our cottage & I hope you will be back in the future. I could not have asked for better renters!!!
Our family of four really enjoyed our one week stay. The cottage was extremely well organized and clean. Super efficient for a family our size. Our main concern was having only one bathroom but it was not a problem at all. No water pressure issues which can plague many other homes on the island. Even better we didn’t hear any planes despite being less than a mile from the airport. Lorri was great to communicate leading up to our stay - given how organized everything was we never needed to reach out during our stay! Thanks for hosting a great week on the island.

Thank you for your kind words! You were fantastic renters! I truly appreciate the fact that you treated the cottage like your own! Your welcome back anytime!
Great home that is clean and wonderfully cozy. All furniture is updated and house is fully stocked with all you need.
The location is incredibly convenient but feels secluded and quiet. Best of both worlds. Can’t wait to come here again.
Our family of 4 recently stayed in Lorri’s cottage and it had everything we needed (and more) for our stay. No detail was overlooked and the cottage was very clean and cozy. Lorri was also flexible with our dates, easy to work with and communication was great. Definitely would recommend renting a vehicle to make the most of your stay!
The house is darling and so well appointed with all of the necessary comforts. It was perfect for our little group. The owner is great to work with, and the house had everything we needed for a fun trip to Nantucket.

The cottage was perfect for our stay. Very clean, basically brand new cottage. Beds were comfortable. Living room and dining/kitchen areas are perfect for family time, watching tv, or cooking. The host was outstanding at being flexible with us during out stay. The loft bedroom is very spacious and a unique space with a nice bed. We had a great stay and I highly recommend this cottage during your visit to Nantucket.

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay at Evergreen Escape and were happy with the experience. Thank you for treating the cottage with care!.
You are welcome back anytime!
My wife, 3 month old, and I just returned from a one week stay at Lorri’s beautiful cottage. The cottage was perfect; it had everything we needed (and more). The property is centrally located, so we were easily able to see most parts of the island…which is no small feat with a newborn!
From the moment we booked the rental through to check out, Lorri was responsive, helpful, and just an overall great person.
I highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a carefree, dreamy week on Nantucket.

Convenient island living!
My wife and I have visited the island for years and on our most recent trip to the island we traveled with our seven month old son. We saw Evergreen Escape and thought it would be perfect and it was in every way. From the start Lorri worked with us on the rental dates to accommodate us in bringing our vehicle over to the island.
Once at the home we met with Lorri who showed us the home which is brand new. It comes complete with everything you need for a perfect island trip. The location is great just outside the hustle and bustle of town with close access to the bike path. It was a convenient ride to visit all our favorite spots on the island (Sankaty Head Lighthouse, Bartlett’s Farm, Cisco Brewery, Millie’s and beaches.
We can’t wait for another Evergreen Escape!

Amazing visit to Nantucket and such a wonderful cottage to call home for the week.
Our first summer trip to Nantucket was wonderful. The evergreen escape cottage was centrally located on the island which is perfect as our family (including our 3 boys) loves to bike and explore. We were minutes from all the great beaches and many of the historical sites on the island. There are many local shops you can rent bikes. I would suggest that is the best way to explore Nantucket.
The cottage was perfectly appointed and private. We grilled out and enjoyed dinner in the back year many evenings. The weather was just too nice to be inside. Lorri and her husband were so easy to work with and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our first visit to Nantucket.
We will certainly visit again!

Prestine, Private and absolutely Perfect
Lorri & Brian we’re exceptional hosts. The cottage is extremely well appointed, more space than expected and literally brand new. Location to beaches & town was convenient with no more than 10min drive to either. Lorri’s attention to detail within the cottage was great, and we would have stayed much longer if it was available. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend staying at the cottage, and I look forward on our next stay there. With both Lorri & Brian being locals, their recommendations were welcomed & spot on. Thanks!
