Martha's Vineyard Beachfront Cottage in Oak Bluffs but closer to Vineyard Haven

We loved the property. We had never stayed at a place that was just a few steps to the water. I would definitely want to stay there again.

Our family had an amazing vacation at this wonderful home in Oak Bluffs. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We especially loved the casual living area, well-equipped kitchen, and relaxing outdoor area.The location was perfect!Steps to the beach, close to downtown, and the ferry, but still quiet and peaceful. We made great memories here and would definitely love to come back. Highly recommend for families!

Simple little cottage right on the water. Has everything you need for a relaxing stay. Great sunsets. Board games. Grill. Nice neighbors. Close to the bus stop. Frannie is super responsive. Would definitely stay again!

This was our first time on the island and Franny’s house was perfect. The location was wonderful- right in between Vineyard Haven and Oak Bluffs. The buses were free this summer so that is how we got around the island. The house was just as described and pictured in the listing and Franny was a wonderful host. The thing we enjoyed most was the water right outside your back door. We visited the other beaches on the island but there is nothing better than stepping off the back deck and the water being right there. We would definitely book Franny’s house again.

The cottage was everything we needed. The beds were very comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed. Franny was easy to contact and very responsive, friendly and polite.Just a note of caution regarding getting on Martha's Vineyard; as first timers we did not know that the ferry needed to be reserved in advance.. Fortunately, I stumbled upon that information and got a ferry that lined up with check in time. Great stay!

This year was our 7th stay at this wonderful little cottage. Our week there is one of the things that we look forward to every year! Once again, we had a great time! With how busy life can be, this is truly the perfect ‘escape’ for us! It’s in a perfect location, right between Vineyard Haven & Oak Bluffs. You can be at countless restaurants and activities in minutes. We love exploring new parts of the island, and the location is in a great spot to make your home base. There’s nothing like grilling out on the deck, and playing cards while watching the ferries go by. Your own section of the beach is just a step away. It has some of the nicest sunsets on the island. And I can’t say enough great things about Franny! She is always so nice and helpful and very quick to respond should anything ever be needed. Thank you again for letting us share these incredible memories!

It was advertised correctly. No pottery barn accents here. This is a charming cottage right on the bay with fantastic view. It has all you need for comfortable stay. It has that 50's / 60's charm. FFranny was very help

Accurately described, close to town with a lovely deck and view.

It was other sweet stay at my dream cottage on Beach Rd. I dreamt of staying in this house as a young girl visiting this island with my Mom and family. We'd, hop off the ferry and drive down beach road past the house annually and I would proclaim that is my favorite little house! Post Covid I intentionally prayed the house would be available at a price I could afford. I checked for available listings, and it was. Franny is a wonderful host. The property manager is reliable and johnny on the spot fast. The location is perfect for access to the happenings in OB and Vineyard Haven, super close to the Net Result (you can walk) and the perfect proximity to trips up island for the Farmer's Market and spelunking. We love not having to pack up to go to the beach and having the freedom to let the kiddos explore the beach inlets and areas near the house. The house is also walking distance to ArtPlace where Gina's Ahmazing cooking requires the reasonable walk home to wear down some tummy fullness. There are too many wonderful things to say about this home; but I will refrain some as I don't want to find the house booked when I want to go (LOL). I cannot visit the island without secretly pining to be in the house on Beach Rd; it has fast become one of the reasons MV is my happy place. Thanks again Franny!

Franny’s house quickly became a magical and special spot for our family. It’s in an excellent location and the beach access when you open the back door is everything we wanted. The kids couple play in the sand and swim in the water. We brought out SUP and had a great time paddle boarding around. We can’t wait until next year!

Booked with Franny nearly a year in advance. I was given a good overview of the property and what to expect. It’s a very cute cottage on the edge of Oak Bluffs near the bridge to Vineyard Haven. Super convenient to get to those places. The house is steps from the water on the Sound, that location, view and access to the beach is priceless. The home is small and cozy, very rustic and humble but met are needs and aligned to the expectations. The bedroom with the twin beds faces a busy road so at night light sleepers might get disturbed. The in room AC does a decent job of drowning the road noise. The other bedrooms face the beach and you can hear ocean waves at night, super serene. Not super modern but clean and functional.

As the owner said if you are looking for Pottery barn feel, do not rent our house It is truly a rustic beach cottage, but you can't beat the location!

It was a beautiful couple of days

Exactly as advertised. Just a quick drive to Main Street Vineyard Haven or downtown Oak Bluffs. The back deck is private and beach is breathtaking. Looking forward to coming back.
