''Paddy Go Wack offers an easygoing, casual, unpretentious getaway in a wonderful neighborhood, where you can hear the ocean at night, walk to the Sankaty Lighthouse by day, and enjoy the village life of S'conset.'' Valerie. C. - renter for 10 years
This lovely home captures the charm of the old whaling village of Siasconset. The first glimpse of the house reveals the front shingled porch covered with roses and hydrangea bushes and the property surrounded by privot hedges. This is the special mark of a Nantucket home. The cozy interior provides a wonderful opportunity for family time with the fireplace and backgammon room nearby. The living room opens onto a deck where you can enjoy the gentle, warm morning sunlight or the beauty of dusk. It is a house waiting to be filled with the happy sounds of people enjoying a beautiful way of life.
The house is located on the main road into Siasconset, so you can walk or bike into the center of the most charming village on Nantucket. The beach is a short 5 minute walk. The house is situated near the famous bluff walk of Siasconset, featuring all the lovely mansions of the early 1900's. You can enjoy the adorable cottages nearby of the fishermen of yesteryear, so beautifully preserved and landscaped. Make sure you look at #144061, the back house on this property, also listed on VRBO. You might want to rent it or both.
''We loved the charm of the house. It’s such a friendly house.'' 2006 renter, Adele E.

'Sconset Dream Home Come True
Why the Owner Chose Siasconset
My parents bought this house for a summer vacation home in 1965. We all have been going there since.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We love having family in this house, playing card games or backgammon together, whiffle ball outside, and family dinners. And we love riding the waves on the beach!

We had such a wonderful time in Sconset and a huge part was because of Paddy Go Wack. Be prepared to be whisked away to a long-gone era of quintessential beach living with this rustic and sweet home. We felt like family while we were there!

My family and I just returned from two glorious weeks at Paddy Go Wack on Nantucket. The house is very welcoming and charming. When we arrived, it was spotlessly clean and exactly how Shelley described it. The location is perfect and the backyard was great for the kids.

A few friends and I just returned from a long weekend at Paddy Go Wack and we had the most amazing time. The house was clean & welcoming; bedrooms were of good size; the water pressure was just like home; the yard was well maintained; the house was stocked with plates, glasses, towels & linens, blankets, fans, books, beach chairs and beach umbrellas. It's just a short walk from the beach, a park, the market, the package store, the post office and a $2 shuttle into town. Advice: try to catch the shuttles in & out of town as often as you can as cab fares can quickly add up. While on the island, I recommend visiting The Summer House for some drinks while listening to Jaime tickle the piano keys. Also, the fudge at Aunt Leah's in town (near the Hy-line ferry docks) is to die for. Other things we enjoyed during our stay: a few cocktails at Slip 14 and Gazebo, a night of dancing at The Rose and Crown, a trip to Cisco Brewery and playing kadima while at the beach. I definitely would recommend this rental. We hope to make this an annual trip.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, pet owners, girls getaway, age 55+.

Filled with character, and just a short walk to the beach. A truly classic Nantucket beach house. Be aware that the two downstairs bedrooms are both singles, with a shared bathroom. Upstairs, there is a master bedroom with en suite bath, and a separate generous bedroom with its own bathroom. There is also a day bed under some windows which we used for our two-year old with great success. The large eat-in kitchen and separate dining room make meals easy. We had a wonderful time.

This house is a wonderful place for a couple or family. And we bring our dog! It is quintessential Nantucket home which makes you feel welcome. We loved the round dining table for family dinners or large family card games. There is lovely light morning and afternoon.
