About this property

This is one of the most unique properties on Martha's Vineyard. Located directly on the bustling Vineyard Haven harbor & right across the street from the famous Black Dog Tavern, this cottage offers a truly immersive waterfront Vineyard experience - right in the thick of everything. Everything you could need - from public transportation, to groceries, to restaurants, beaches and so much more - is literally just steps outside the front door. The house was just remodeled and outfitted with all new furniture and appliances. The house is comprised of a fully equipped kitchen, living room, small dining area, 2 outdoor decks, 2nd floor master bedroom with full bath, and a downstairs 1/2 bath. Off-street parking for up to 2 vehicles - which is like GOLD in that area! If you’re arriving by way of your own boat, dock space can be reserved in advance at The Black Dog Wharf, Vineyard Haven Marina and Tisbury Wharf Company.

A great weekend getaway

The house was amazing, and just as described and shown in pictures. It is a 3 minute walk from the ferry - great to do a car-less trip to Martha's Vineyard - rent bicycles and/or use the bus system. We would certainly stay here again.

About the host

Life-long resident of Martha's Vineyard. Been developing and managing properties on Martha's Vineyard for many years.

Why they chose this property

This property is hands down my favorite property. There's nothing like sitting on the deck of this house and just watching for hours on end all that there is to see in the bustling year-round harbor of Vineyard Haven.

What makes this property unique

Beside its stone's throw proximity to just about everything, this property is unique in that if offers on-site in-town parking, and access to a beach right in the backyard.
