I've been vacationing in Nantucket for over 20 years, and have stayed all over the island. When we first stayed at "Nantucket Reds" (@5 years ago) we stopped searching and have been lucky enough to book here every year since.

What's perfect about it...

It's located close enough to downtown to bike or cab in 5-10 minutes, but on a dead end street ending with a bike trail for peace & quiet. Kids can play in the yard as you BBQ with friends. It's also 5 minutes from Miacomet Golf Course (which since it's renovation has become an outstanding 18 holes of golf!).

The layout of the house is outstanding, with 3 separate master bedrooms (private baths in each), on opposite ends of hallways upstairs, and the 3rd on the first level, equally cut off. In additional a "kids" bedroom next to a half bath. The house is outfitted with classy but comfortable furniture, including a huge dining room so cooking in is still a treat, as well as an outside deck/grill area with teak dining for @10. The kitchen is opened to the eat-in area (separate from the main dining room), and flows into the living room with full sectional. The open floor plan in this part of the house is great for sitting around with coffee/breakfast as you plan your day, or unwinding at night.

Lastly....a private outdoor shower, one of life's simple pleasures!

You can't go wrong by spending your Nantucket time at this house.

p.s. I'm already booked again for '11, otherwise I'd be afraid of posting such a positive review. ; )
