This was the perfect cottage for our weekend getaway! We could easily walk to town and the beach was a 6 minute drive away! We loved having access to beach chairs, towels, and an umbrella. It was truly a lovely place to stay!

It was a nostalgic fishing type home that makes us feel like we were in the 1950s. The cabinets and cutlery could use some cleaning. Not a place to cook if you need to cook in. Location was excellent and host was great at communication when we had questions. The ac is pretty loud so if you're a light sleeper, you may want to bring some ear plugs. Lovely yard!

Sweet little home

Exactly what we needed. Simple, clean and close to town. Lovely little home and had a great time on the island. Host was very responsive and the kids loved the big back yard.

It’s unusual to find a property close to town in Nantucket that you can rent for less than 1 week. The house is comfortable, old Nantucket style with all the amenities you need. Host is very friendly and responsive. There is a large yard we enjoyed with parking, 2 fire pits and a grill and outdoor shower. Things I would like to know before arrival:Property grounds are shared with another house. The small bedroom does not have air conditioning. There is a Kurig machine but coffee pods are not sold on the island- so if you want use, bring your own.

Nantucket Cottage

Lovely cottage in the absolute perfect location. Short 10 minute walk to downtown shops and restaurants. Nice outdoor shower, bonfire pit and outdoor space including a bbq to grill up the fresh caught bluefish. Our family bikes the entire island from here, quick access to most bike paths.

Perfect in-town cottage for family of 3

My husband, teenage son and I loved staying at this cottage. We stayed at the owner's other property earlier this summer when we had more people with us. The experience and property were so great we tried the smaller cottage this time and were equally impressed. Location to town and beach is ideal, cleanliness was perfect. It all worked very well for us including the outdoor dining table and outside shower. I highly recommend this property for a family of 3.

Great property !

We had an amazing week in Nantucket. House was just what we needed - perfect for the 3 of us. (note : second bedroom is tiny with only a twin bed. Main house on property is much bigger if you have more than 5 people) Location was perfect, In town but tucked on a side street with huge yard and lots of outdoors seating.. We felt like we were further out in countryside. We rode bikes everywhere.! Definetly will stay there next summer. Thank you Deirdre❤️

I am SO glad you enjoyed! We also love the location, right in the middle of everything but with so much privacy. It makes for a great family “compound” when both cottages are rented together. Looking forward to welcoming you back next year!~Deirdre

Historic Cottage -

There were 4 of us and this historic little cottage met our needs. We had privacy on the dead end street and easy access to town. The cottage itself is small but charming. It fit our needs just fine. Lovely outdoor area to sit and relax, play games and grill. The owner was very flexible & easily accessible. Our kids enjoyed the outdoor showers. Thank you for a great time at your cozy cottage!
