The house was amazing and Jodi was an absolute pleasure to work with. Perfect location given its proximity to town and walking distance to pretty much anything you want to do. Back yard gardens were amazing and the we had a phenomenal experience. Would absolutely rent this house again.

Lovely house near town

We had a wonderful stay at Jodi's place. The house looks brand new inside and was kept in great condition. A pleasant walk to town and also an easy walk or drive to places mid-island. Easy drive to the different beaches. Jodi was a pleasure to work with - she reached out before we arrived and was quick to respond with any questions. Would definitely stay here again!

Comfy, upscale and artistically appointed home near town.

Felt right at home in this comfortable, upscale, artistically appointed home. The owner is quite generous in providing gorgeous linens, Kiehles products, beach chairs and other amenities. We felt we were staying at a friend's house. The location is walking distance to town and centrally located.

Amazing stay!

We had an amazing time in this lovely home. The beds were super comfy, the multiple couches/rooms allowed for us to spread out and relax after lots of walking to see the sights. Our host was super helpful and responded quickly. The location is about 1/2 mile from town and once you know which roads work for you, super easy. Mapping doesn’t always provide the best walking route but once you know the roads with a shoulder, path or sidewalk, you are all set!

Centrally located!

This house is gorgeous and comfortable! And lots of light comes into family room kitchen and bedroom areas. The garden and back deck sitting area are lovely! Well stocked with everything from kitchen needs, bathroom needs and games. Beds were so comfortable and loved the location! Five minute bike ride to town or 15 min walk but also can easily bike to beaches and places on east end of town like surfside beach and surfside 45 and markets.

Wonderful stay!

This house is amazing! Beautiful inside and out. Awesome sitting area on deck outside and very peaceful. Great location. Walking distance to top of Main street. Very spacious house with cozy furniture. Fully loaded kitchen which made cooking at home super easy. Each bedroom has its own en suite bathroom. Our host Jodi was really great to work with. Highly recommend this property. Eric and Michelle

Amazing stay!

We had a wonderful week away at the On the Way House! The location was perfect for us, about a 10 minute walk to town (with three small and slow children) and a 2-3 minute drive to town. The house and decor was gorgeous and the yard was perfectly landscaped. My children, 6, 3, and 18 mo. played outside while we grilled and had dinner on the deck. Everything we needed was there. It was a wonderful week and we would will be back for sure! The owner was very easy to reach and accommodating, even reached out our first day to make sure everything was as expected!

Immaculate, Centrally Located Home

There aren’t enough superlatives to describe this tastefully decorated, well stocked home. It’s a picture perfect near-town Nantucket experience. Our family of 5, which included 2 teens and a 4 year old, had a great time. The teens (typically hard to please) were happy to be able to walk to town whenever they wished and the youngest loved all the beaches which are about 5 minutes away. The grocery store is 2 minutes away. There’s even a playground walking distance down the street. Jodi is a breeze to work with. Would definitely stay again.

Nantucket Dreaming

On The Way House was an absolute Nantucket Dream! The listing photos while beautiful do not do this property justice! This home is a true gem in every way! Beautiful from the outside in with gorgeous gardens and fluffy hydrangeas, weathered shingles and antique urns brimming with seas shells it makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a beachy Hallmark movie! Immaculately clean, super cozy and tastefully appointed it feels like your home away from home. Every detail has been attended to from a fully stocked spice cabinet to beautiful and plentiful plateware and glasses (offered in pretty shades of blue) to the high quality cookware, utensils & sharp knives (much appreciated by my chef husband)! Linens and towels were hotel quality and the location, just a quick walk to town cannot be matched! I could go on all day! We have been visiting Nantucket for 15 years and this was by far our favorite property! Jodi was so pleasant and quick to answer any questions. Our family had a great week on Atlantic Ave. and we hope to stay again soon!
