Can not imagine a more lovely inviting house to relax on the vineyard. The fall weather is incredible with beautiful colors on the water.What a way to greet the morning to pink hues from the east and saying goodnight to brilliant oranges in the west. The house is situated so.The host is readily available to answer any questions which to date have been very few.We look forward to next year!!

Fantastic home and an incredible outdoor living space / deck overlooking the Elizabeth Islands

The house exceeded all expectations. If you are looking to unplug and relax you will not be disappointed. Extremely well equipped, comfortable beds, tremendous water views and the sounds of the waves putting you to sleep this fits the bill.

Aquinnah

This is our third year. The host is gracious and the house is very welcoming.Neat and tidy. Wonderful location with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. This year the Aurora borealis gave us an experience words can not describe. We wondered if the host was responsible for this show. You know it is special when the adults not the children ask if we can stay longer.Would highly recommend this lovely home as a place to stay.

couldn't have been better!

This trip was a girls trip for myself and my best friend of 35 years, and my 25 year old daughter and her best friend. This being our first trip to MV we really just guessed where to stay. Aquinnah was the perfect choice for a quiet and restful vacation. This home was absolutely LOVELY! The photos shown... like trying to capture a photo of a magnificent sunset... do not do this home justice. The view is unbeatable. The home beautiful , comfortable and perfectly designed to provide shared as well as private space. It was a wonderful and peaceful home base after exploring more populated and tourist parts of the island . None of us wanted to leave! And... We are already talking about making it an annual get together!

Truly Magical! Private Gem on the Water!

Wonderful property! We spent 10 days here in Oct & shared the house with several couples. We picked this spot because it is on the remote end of the island with less crowds & traffic. The house is clean & the bedrooms are very spacious. The kitchen is completely functional & has everything you need. Bring/buy your food , grill/cook & take in the amazing views from the large dining room table. Lots of space in this house! We made occasional runs to the Menemsha fish markets for fresh fare (about a 15 minute drive from the house). The house location is very secluded, private & dramatic. A wide back deck affords glorious views the Vineyard Sound & Elizabeth Islands. Step off the deck, walk 30 seconds down a path & arrive at the beach staircase. Below the stairs is a beautiful rocky beach & prime, outstanding fishing. We caught stripers & bluefish directly below the house, especially around sunset. If you want to swim, walk a few minutes right to Dog Fish Bar where it is very sandy. This location showcases nature at its best! From both the deck & the beach, we spotted large seals swimming parallel to shore about 75 yards away - a special treat! The seals were curious & looking at us when they came up for air. Great bird watching too. We hiked along the beach, turning left from the stairs, past the dramatic Aquinnah cliffs to Aquinnah beach, up the paths & back home along the road. This is a wonderful 4-ish mile loop that you won't want to miss - best to walk it at low tide. We absolutely LOVED our stay & can't wait to plan a return visit!

The view from your bed

There are so many amazing things I can say about this home- it is so spacious and comfortable- an amazing place to make memories. Every bedroom but one has an amazing ocean front view. Judy is a lovely host, the home has everything you need for a decadent vacation. My absolute favorite part was waking up every morning after sleeping under the most comfortable sheets to an ocean front view complete with seals and sandpipers. I highly recommend this home.

Beautiful Property for a Family Getaway

The property was absolutely beautiful for our family week away. It contained all that you may need with breathtaking views of the water. The seclusion was a refreshing getaway from the city. Judy was very communicative and was available for questions we had before and during our trip.
