Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts
32 Beach Rd. is a small but cozy cottage conveniently located between Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven. The cottage has 3 small bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen along with a living area. It also has a nice deck out and some lounge chairs overlooking the marsh leading to the lagoon. The location is perfect for travelers who didn't bring a vehicle on the island. You can walk to Eastville Beach or catch a bus into downtown Oak Bluffs or Vineyard Haven. This is a perfect place for a family who wants to experience Martha's Vineyard or a couple who wants to have a quick getaway and not break the bank.
There is A/C (two window units, and one 'split' HVAC) which cools the house well, and the internet is spotty but generally functional. The property has a grill, a small deck, and a parking area for two vehicles (shared with an island car and a boat trailer). Recently the island added a bike and pedestrian path between the road and house, and as a result, its right outside the door! We are lucky to have access to this, as it goes from VH to OB and is a great recreation option. Bikes can be rented just up the road.
This was the perfect cottage for my family to stay in and walk to the Beach Road Weekend Festival. It was peaceful and beautiful and so easy to bus into Oak Bluffs (the stop is just a few houses down the street). The new living room couch was the perfect place to hang out and drink coffee in the am!
The property is in the process of being modernized (not finished) It is a very small 3 BR 2 bath cottage - better for up to 3 adults. Focus should be placed on the exterior - especially the porch screening (50yrs old?) and some disintegrating window framing and fence. Wifi was weak and sporadic (disappointing) all week. Lots of clean linens and towels, kitchen well equipped. Recently cleaned when we arrived. One bathroom shower stall needs to be replaced (brown stains floor & walls). House sits on busy main road therefore lots of traffic noise during the day at the front of the house that stops when the bridge is up. Hopefully the additional repairs owner mentioned can be finished before high season next year. Informed the owner is waiting for a part for the new washing machine.Right now it did not compare well with other rentals we have booked in the Oak Bluffs area. But it was clean and we spent most days running around the area. Best location features: hospital and bus stops a block away, nearby access to Vineyard Haven bridge and the beach.
We had a great week on MV while staying at this lovely house. It was perfectly located between Vineyard Haven and Oak Bluffs. A short walk to the beach and great for just relaxing. We all really enjoyed the house and hope to return.
