About this property
Martha's Vineyard Beachfront Cottage in Oak Bluffs but closer to Vineyard Haven
Small beachfront cottage; back deck is right on the water and the front door is on Beach Rd. where you can flag down a bus or ride or walk to Vineyard Haven (1 mile) or Oak Bluffs (2 miles). Unbelievable sunsets. Games. 3 bedrooms upstairs: The Master bedroom is a "queen-short"; other ocean side bedroom has a double bed; the roadside room has two twins. You don't even need to bring a car! If a family member can't do stairs, the couch opens up and the full bath is on the first floor. Watch parasailers and ferries and fishermen, walk up the beach to the jetty, rent bikes, explore the island. Or just stay home and read on the deck. Wifi, grill, TV. So relaxing at the house. In the family for many years and we rent it out when we are not there. There's a great Film Society less than a mile away with nightly good movies. Don't rent this house if you want modern Pottery Barn feel; it is small, old-fashioned, and simple.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Franny
Photo, top left is my father who owns the house. My NY-based maternal grandfather used to summer in the cottage and do his plaster-to-bronze sculptures on the porch. In 1975, my family added a second floor with three bedrooms. Our family has squeezed many of us in for laughter-filled weekends of games and swimming, sunsets, meals on the porch. Right now we rent it most of the summer. We live in various parts of the Boston area and Amherst, MA. Photo is from Dad's house.
Why they chose this property
Lifelong memories. My family first rented this cottage in the1940's and then bought it back in the 1950's. I love that everything is right there, from views to fun water play right outside, to public buses, to hospital, to villages and film society and theatre. People flock to Eastville Beach and we are right there!
What makes this property unique
Cute house, right on the water. It is hard to find houses that are literally 15 feet from the water. Convenient to everything--buses, ferries and fun.
