This fresh cottage in Edgartown is a delightful find! It is spacious, tastefully appointed, fresh and immaculately clean. The location is lovely, private and peaceful. It feels away from town. ..and yet we were only a few minutes away from stores and shopping. It has just the right amount of tasteful charm to get a sense of the island without experiencing an overabundance of gift shop tchotchke.
The delightful host, Stacey, greeted us with a warm welcome when we arrived. We were honored to be her first guests staying at the cottage and it was immediately evident that our comfort was her top priority! She has equipped the two bedroom vacation home with thoughtful amenities and conveniences and, with her warm greeting, we felt immediately at home!
We were delightfully surprised to find a chilled bottle of wine and fruit set for us in the refrigerator in addition to seeing that everything we might need was there in the well-equipped kitchen. The beautiful step-down den, all newly furnished, provided a very comfortable place to relax with TV or a book. The queen-sized bed with new and fresh linens was wonderfully comfortable, the shower perfect and, when we were there, a lovely outdoor shower was being completed. There is a lovely, sunny deck, with table and chairs as well as chaise lounge chairs for relaxing.
The Right Fork Diner at the airport is less than a mile away - heading toward the beach. It provided unexpected delight! The Diner is very popular since they offer the most delicious breakfast imaginable (e.g., eggs Benedict on smoked Gouda polenta with vegetable hash). Really! Get there early. .. especially on a Sunday. If you must wait to be seated, you can enjoy watching the coming and goings of this little airstrip. We watched . . .and then also enjoyed taking a flight in the old red 1940 biplane kept at the airport. It was a truly wonderful adventure we won't forget!
Everything about our stay in Edgartown at the Herring Moon Cottage was simply delightful! Delightful! We cannot wait to plan our next visit!
