Dear Mr. Beckett, We had a smashing good time in your house. The TV came in handy for the sports fanatics. We loved the basement. Our parents were so happy because of all the cool appliances. Us kids loved the bunk beds. We enjoyed our stay and we'd like to come again. p.s You are so lucky to have a house in Madaket. It was also Evan's birthday. He was 10.Did you find this review helpful?

Hi Carla and Bill, I just wanted to let you know that we had the most wonderful time at your house -- what a lovely home it is and its location is absolutely fabulous! We had great weather all week and everything was just perfect. We tried to take care of it as if it were our own. Also, the Sunday to Sunday rental is a fantastic idea, and, it being the 4th of July, we were practically the only ones on the ferry out. We did not want to leave (I'm sure you must hear this a lot), but we were amazed at how crowded the island got as we moved closer to the holiday weekend -- by Sunday we were glad we were leaving to avoid the crowds - but that was the only reason! I am putting the keys in the mail to you today, hopefully you will receive them in the next day or two. I'd like to thank you both for such a wonderful vacation and hope that you will be going there soon to enjoy it yourselves. Kind Regards, BarrieDid you find this review helpful?

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2003
About the owner: Bill Beckett is a native of Massachusetts and Carla Kindt was born and raised in California. 3Buoys is named after their 3 sons.
Why the Owner Chose Madaket:
We are long-time sailors and have spent many years cruising Cape Cod and the island, but of all the harbors we have enjoyed Nantucket has always been our favorite.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
What makes 3Buoys special is that you really get the feeling of being away from it all. Nantucket has a remote, beachy feel that we love and the yard is very private. Make sure you head outsie on a cloudless night. The entire Milky Way will unfold overhear. Madaket has one of the darkest skies in the US and is perfect for stargazing. And the front porch is a great place from which to watch the sunset.
