About this property

In-town jewel -- Vineyard Haven

Five blocks from downtown Vineyard Haven and Martha's Vineyard ferry terminal, this house sits in a quiet neighborhood close to the new public library and downtown. This home has been thoughtfully renovated, resulting in guests who come again and again. It sleeps 7 guests in 4 bedrooms with 2 baths. Travelers can park two cars in the driveway and leisurely stroll into town for a morning cup of coffee, breakfast, lunch, dinner, shopping or to catch a bus at the ferry terminal and visit other parts of the Island. Bike rentals are available in downtown Vineyard Haven or Oak Bluffs.

The first floor offers a spacious living room with fireplace, game table and cable TV. The dining room opens into a kitchen with granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar. For outdoor eating, the kitchen conveniently opens onto a private and nicely landscaped, bluestone patio with table/chairs/umbrella and BBQ grill. Around the corner is an enclosed outdoor shower for a quick rinse after a sandy day at the beach.

Sleeping arrangements offer three bedrooms and full bath/shower on the second floor. On the main floor is a fourth bedroom with an adjacent bathroom and ample-sized shower... great for Grandma and Grandpa or guests who may need quiet space.

Other features include hardwood floors throughout; washer/dryer on the main floor; central air conditioning and WiFi.

One block away is the public library (being renovated in 2026) with a children's section and programs for rainy days.
For sports-minded travelers, Mink Meadow Golf Course is up the road, and the VH Yacht Club is a few blocks away. Beautiful Farm Neck Country Club, offering public golf and tennis play in the afternoon to non-members, is 6 miles away. In downtown Vineyard Haven, car, bike and moped rentals are available as is access to the Island-wide bus system. Call ahead for rentals.

Come enjoy a week you'll never forget!

A comfortable, relaxing place to stay

We had a great trip to Vineyard Haven! The house had everything we could need. It was comfortable and clean—a cool retreat after a hot beach day. It’s close enough to walk to town but tucked away from the chaos. It’s an easy jumping off point to explore many places in the island. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor shower, a relaxing way to end the day!

Great Stay in Vineyard Haven

This is a very clean and roomy house just a short walk to town. Spent most down time on the beautiful secluded patio in the back of the house. Dealing with Karen was easy and she was a great communicator and answered all questions promptly. My family and friends loved our stay in this house and highly recommend it.

Wonderful stay!

My family (2 adults, 2 kids under 3) traveled with our friends (2 adults + 1 year old) to this property. We had an amazing stay. The home was clean and welcoming. It had all the amenities we needed- kitchen stocked with appliances and extras. The location can’t be beat- 10 min walk to downtown Vineyard Haven. We have stayed in many different properties and locations on MV over the years and this was one of the best. Would definitely return!

Charmer in a Great Location

The property was well-maintained, newly renovated with lovely decor. The house was very clean and comfortable with plenty of room for everyone. We were 7 total. Easy access to town and beaches. Lovely patio area to enjoy coffee in the morning or BBQ in the evening. Manager was lovely and very responsive. Really an enjoyable home!

Large, Lovely Home in Perfect Condition

Lovely home in perfect condition, absolutely spotless, with all the amenities. We are a family of five, including a tween, a teen, two parents, and a grandma, and this place felt larger than we needed. It was great to have one bedroom on the first floor for grandma and wonderful to have linens and beach towels provided. Also, the listing doesn't mention all the beach equipment in the shed (beach chairs, umbrella, sand toys, etc.) Very helpful as we could not have fit beach chairs into our car (or the linens). Also it's a nice touch to leave coffee for visitors. Highly recommended!

As advertised. Convenient to town. Served 6 comfortably. Family nights on the patio!

Reservations and checkin/checkout were seemless. What stood out: the patio. The location. The outdoor shower. The mud room/storage off the kitchen. Did I say the patio with the grill? The home: As advertised. More functional than pictures suggested. Kitchen and dining room worked well for family meals. Kitchen stocked for every need (even kids utensils for our grand daughter). We did not want for anything during our stay. The living room served as separated quiet space for young adults. Off street parking for 2 vehicles allowed visitors during the day. Plenty of towels AND Beach Towels available Full sized washer and drier was appreciated. Location: we walked to town everyday with a 2 year old. Rented 2 bikes to have available all week (recommend). Used weekly bus pass to get around the island (Edgartown and Oak Bluffs) as well as trips to the beach. Would we rent again? Absolutely! Bedrooms: 2 for adult couples. 2 with 3 twins total. Again - worked well for our family.

Our family enjoyed staying in this comfortable spacious home. This is a property which has clearly be well taken care of and is appointed with all we needed for a week at MV. Beach toys, towels, etc. A lovely outdoor patio and shower were used daily. We walked into town most mornings, to grab a coffee and allow the little ones to play at Owen Park. Hosts were very easy tocommunicate with. Will be back!
