What a wonderful home you have created! We thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Not enough time to do everything or eat everywhere, so must return again. We had a great day at the Cliffs at Gay Head, had a plate of cherry stone clams and brought home a wonderful swordfish steak for dinner on your Weber grill. Doesn't get much better than that! Thank you so much for the privilege of sharing this lovely home and the charm of the Vineyard.

This is a beautiful summer house! We always want to go home early from our vacations. This time we wish we could stay. Hope to be back next year. Thank you for making everything so nice for guests you don't even know. You epitomize gracious hospitality.

Love the location, being able to just jump on our bikes and be right at the beach/or Katama General Store for newspapers in the a.m., or breakfast at Katama Airfield. One thing you have done really well at the house for guests is you've thought of so many little things/details! Flashlights and games for teens, and instructions for t.v., trash pick up etc., awesome!
