    We loved our stay! We’ve been coming to MV for several years now and this was the nicest home we’ve stayed in yet. It was perfect for our group of 6 adults with a pet- plenty of space to spread out but also enjoy meals together every night on the porch. The location couldn’t be better and the house itself was charming and had everything we needed. We’d love to stay here again next year!

    The house is so lovely and well appointed for your needs. It’s also very convenient to downtown, the Inkwell and other points of interests. We loved our stay and hope to visit again next year!

    Perfect weather. Quiet. Close but not too close. Clean. Comfortable. Let's do it again! I didn't communicate with the property manager because i didn't have to.

    We had a wonderful stay , our 5th, at this waterfront home in Oak Bluffs. We so enjoy the beautiful location, serenity and feel of this home. The upgrades of A/C, screened in porch, full bath on the 1st floor and the vast music collection all added to our our total enjoyment. If only we could have stayed longer.... Oak Bluffs

    Great home in an awesome location. Even better than the pictures and description. Enjoy all that OB has to offer then get away to the quiet of your beach cottage with a less than 10 min walk. Laurel and Emilie were wonderful hosts. We have been coming to MV for years but this was our first time staying in OB - it hopefully won't be our last.

    Dear Laurel and Emilie, thank you so much for providing such a beautiful, spacious home to bring our family together. The home offered a well appointed kitchen, comfortable seating for family gatherings, bedrooms that offered cozy restful nights, even lighting that appealed to all ambient choices. The large windows and deck were magnificent for viewing the open skyline, stars and moon. The location is a convenient walk to all the local shops, restaurants and businesses. We could not have hoped for a better spot. We look forward to returning again. Dennie and Hugh

    We normally stay in a 4 million dollar house on Chappy. Do to a mix up in scheduling we missed the opportunity this year. I can tell you that this was a serendipitous event. The house on Chappy is an indoor-outhouse compared to this house. The most well kept rental we have stayed in in the past 8 years. Thanks.

    this house was wonderful from beginning to end. First time on the vineyard for our family and it was in a wonderful location. quiet , but within walking distance to the beach and oak bluffs. The house was filled with bothinteresting and very functional items. appliances terrific. they even had some toys for our little 18 month old and bikes for us older folk. The only thing i wish i would have known, is that you have to make reservations on the ferry, if taking a car way in advance. Not withstanding some anxiety around that, the ferry was easy enough to get a reservation once i understood the waitlist process. Laurel couldn’t have bern kinder, when my grandson pushed an alarm and I called her by mistake. I would tell people to run not walk to rent this incredible property.
