About this property

Beautiful family beach house: 1 perfect week still available - July 13-20!

A wonderful summer vacation getaway, this spacious house is awesome for families looking to escape to a very special corner of Nantucket. With its 3 bedrooms, the house can sleep up to 8 depending upon sleeping arrangements. One one side of the main living area is a spacious bedroom with a comfortable queen-sized bed, flat screen TV & double closets. Nearby is the perfect bedroom for 4 kids with one double bed, a twin bunk bed and a twin trundle bed underneath and two large closets and two dressers. Both rooms share an immaculate bathroom with a spacious vanity, toilet and shower.
On the other side of the house, the large, private primary suite has a new king-sized mattress and wrought iron bed, a new flat screen TV, walk-in closet, en-suite full bathroom and a surprise – a second floor loft to a private outdoor deck.
The fully-equipped kitchen has a breakfast bar and it opens into the dining room that seats 8 comfortably at the wide country table.
The open living room has soaring ceilings, a wood burning fireplace and two seating areas, both with views of giant flat screen TV and kitchen. The loft off the living room is accessed via a spiral staircase and is a great hangout for kids to watch TV, play games, do puzzles or read. Large outdoor deck in the front is perfect for dining al fresco. There's also a gas grill out back in the large manicured yard!
8 Person Maximum.
NO PETS ALLOWED.
NO PARTIES ALLOWED.
Our home is in a quiet, family neighborhood. A yard surrounds the house. The house is very close to the town bike path, Millie's sandwich/ice cream shop and full-service restaurant (have a Madaket Mystery and enjoy the sunset!) and a local boat ramp. Walk to nearest beach or drive to explore new ones!
Turn-key vacation, just bring yourselves, your flip flops and enjoy!

This Madaket beach house exceeded all our expectations
Shooting Star is a large spacious home 3 to 4 minutes walk from the beach. The house is well presented, scrupulously clean and stocked with everything you could need and more. The outdoor shower was such a bonus for our family of 6 adults travelling with a toddler. Susanna was easy to contact and dealt with any queries immediately. We all loved our stay & would recommend this amazing property to anyone.

💫
We are so grateful to have stayed in this very special home! Shooting Star is perfectly charming and incredibly comfortable. We wanted for nothing. The beach was a beautiful 5 minute walk down the road. We loved walking to Millie’s for dinner or just ice cream. While the weather was a bit overcast and rainy for some of our stay, it was so cozy to snuggle up on the couch with a good book. This was the most relaxing vacation thus far and we cannot wait to return. Many thanks to Susanna and her family!!

Why they chose this property

We bought our house in Madaket after years of renting in Wauwinet at the very other side of the island. Madaket has a fun vibe that's great for families. It also has lots of pristine beaches. We like to go to the one down our street and then also explore the local roads to find access to the other ones that are more hidden but still close by. When it's open, we love going to Smith's Point, too, because you get an ocean beach and a harbor beach and it's great for picking up some scallop shells.
We also love the history in Nantucket - all the old homes - and the unique shops and fine dining. What's great about the island is that for all it stays the same, it's always changing, and there's always something going on in town. For a week's vacation for both relaxing and sightseeing there's no place we'd rather be in the summer! We're into our second decade of summering in Nantucket and still loving it! We bet you will, too!

What makes this property unique

What makes our house special is that it feels like a real home, but it's so close to the beach that it has the personality of a beach house, too. It's fun and casual and easy to live in, not fussy. It's the perfect place to relax and enjoy all the island has to offer. We hope you will try it and agree!
