Great family vacation in August 2019 at this OB Home. .

We stayed in this home in August 2019 with our little family of 6. There is plenty of room with 4 air conditioned bedrooms upstairs. Enjoyed the outdoor deck area and being able to wash off with outdoor shower after a day at the beach. The home’s location is centrally located to OB’s main attractions as well as vineyard haven and Edgartown, not to mention seeing the susnset in the lagoon near the house. Owners are great to work with, quick responding to any questions we had.

Great location, house has all you need

Ted was excellent with communicating with us, the house was comfortable and has a nice large family room that is a good separate space for kids to hang out. The neighborhood is nice, the short walk to the lagoon is a definite bonus. The only issue we had is the furniture is aging and could be updated. The dining room furniture in particular and the beds could be updated. But those things were pretty insignificant and are reflected in the fair price for a 4br home on the island. We had a great week and the location was very convenient.

We stayed at the Anchor Inn with a group of 4 adults, 2 kids, 1 toddler, and an infant, and the space worked perfectly for us. The largest bedroom had a queen and a twin bed, two similar-sized rooms each had 2 twins, and there was a smaller room with a full-size bed. While the full bed felt a little tight for 2 adults, the overall layout was very comfortable and never felt crowded.The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed, making it easy to prepare breakfast and family dinners. We enjoyed meals both inside at the dining table and outside on the deck.The location was excellent—a quick 3-minute walk to a small beach/lagoon, less than a 10-minute drive to Circuit Ave in Oak Bluffs or Vineyard Haven, and with convenient access to roads leading to Aquinnah and Edgartown.Overall, the house was clean, well-maintained, and ideally situated. It offered plenty of space for our group and made for a wonderful stay.

Affordable Stay in MV

I would rate this house a 3.5 out of 5, since there are no half stars I rounded up to a 4. Although this was not my first pick for a house on Martha's Vineyard, this house is very affordable for a trip to the island. My friends and I spent most of our time outdoors exploring the island and stayed indoors during the evenings to relax. The house is between two towns and close to a few bus stops for traveling. Kitchen comes equipped with cooking instruments, utensils, plates, and cups so we were able to cook a few meals. The family room is a very comfortable setting that fits many people, has a large TV, and table to play board games on. I took off one and a half stars only because the bedrooms and beds are small and we had a bug problem one of the nights. But for the price you're paying it is reasonable.

Our family home is located in the quiet “Lagoon” area of Oak Bluffs. We are about a 1.2 mile walk to the center of Oak Bluffs. It is near a bus route but is best to have a car to fully explore the large island of Martha’s Vineyard. The house is right around the corner from the Lagoon that is a 3 mile long body of water that separates Oak Bluffs from Vineyard Haven. It highly recommended to explore along its shore, especially toward the bridge where there is a fun estuary with Osprey. Kayaks are available to rent on the Vineyard Haven side. We keep a very clean home. I spoke with the renter about the “bug problem” which he said were a few mosquitoes in one of the bed room the first night. I suspect these may have entered the house when they left doors open loading the house. There was no problem after the first night. We try to maintain communication with the renter. We send a personal email before arrival, have a guide on the house for the renter, and supply a copy of a weekly paper with a basket of various activities on the island. We encourage calls with any questions or for advice. In fact, I had spoken with the renter twice during their 3 day stay.

Large house, central location - great for families

The house was spacious for 2 families of 4 (kids age range 9-17). The location is right between OB and VH so easy to either - although we preferred VH as it’s less crowded. We brought 2 cars and there was parking for both. Large family room to watch movies or play games. Large grill for cooking dinner for everyone. Great backyard to play bocce or washer toss (we brought). Ted was a great host - checked in to make sure e Ruth it was ok and was available via phone/text for questions. I would look forward to staying here again!

Great beach getaway

We enjoyed our stay at The Anchor Inn. There is plenty of room for a family of four to spread out. It’s a quick walk to a quaint spot on the lagoon and a quick drive to many great activities on the island. We ate many meals on the deck and took full advantage of the outdoor shower. Ted is very responsive and easy to work with. I highly recommend The Anchor Inn.

Excellent Stay!

Our large party had plenty of space to hang out and the location can’t be beat! The neighborhood was great for the kids to ride bikes and use chalk in the street and the layout of the home was comfortable for kids, teens, and adults alike. Ted checked in with us a couple times during the week which was thoughtful and caring. We had no issues with the process or the property; exactly as listed and expected. We will definitely consider the Anchor Inn for our future visits!

Comfortable, large home convenient to Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven

Our group of painters stayed at this very nice home right near the Lagoon in Oak Bluffs. There are 4 comfortable bedrooms with really comfy beds, a full bath upstairs and downstairs, a large, very well equipped kitchen, large dining table, wonderful living room with tv and fireplace, and a big family room adjacent. Also a big back porch and outdoor shower. It's in a residential area, so it's quiet in the evenings, yet very close to both Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven downtowns. The house was immaculate and fully equipped. It had EVERYTHING we needed to prepare our group breakfasts and evening critique sessions. For linens and towels we used Martha's Linens and we were very happy with the fresh white sheets and fluffy towels. Convenient and easy to arrange. The host, Ted, was so helpful, responsive and pleasant. Really couldn't ask for more. It had a wonderful time and wouldn't hesitate to rent this house again! Thanks Ted!
