Cozy home

We visited Martha's Vineyard for a week and stayed in this cute, well furnished home. The weather weather for the most part was awful so we spent a lot of time in the home. The kitchen was well stocked and the owner was incredibly communicative. We will definitely stay here again when we make it back to the vineyard

Wonderful stay

Stayed with my husband and school age son at the house for several nights to explore Martha's Vineyard. The house was a perfect well-located launchpad and very comfortable. The kitchen was particularly well-equipped and we were able to cook most meals there. The "off season" in October was lovely. Would not hesitate to stay there again.

Great stay!

We loved our recent stay at this property with our two young kids. Our kids enjoyed the puzzles and coloring books when we were winding down at night. The house was clean, updated, and overall very comfortable to stay in. Quiet street in a great location. We were in walking distance to downtown Edgartown, a great playground around the corner, and Stop and Shop.

Like a home away from home

I had my car and after an 8 hour Standby in Woods Hole due to Island Home vessel issue, this VRBO was a very welcome reprieve. The owner was excellent to communicate. We are everyday walkers, so when my car battery died and needed to get to the Christmas Parade, we walked. Always check your Google map. we loved the street, the house was perfect. Thank you so very much Joe!

Clean, Comfortable, and Convenient!

My husband and I vacationed at this property during the first week of June, and it was fantastic! We were within easy walking distance of the Stop-'n'-Shop, and comfortable walking distance to downtown Edgartown, where we enjoyed strolling, shopping, and dining out. The house itself was very clean and comfortable, and the kitchen impressively stocked -- so much so that we cooked and ate in even more than we'd originally planned to. Joe provided thorough and thoughtful instructions, making this one of our easiest and most relaxing Vineyard trips ever; we'd be happy to stay here again, and will definitely check the availability when we next make our way to the island.

Lots of Positives!

This home has all the amenities that you would expect and our stay met our expectation. Our only wish was that it were closer to the harbor area as we didn't bring a car to Edgartown. Great fun to ride the local buses all around the Island then rent a Jeep when 2 family members joined us. The house was very clean and comfortable and the owner very gracious and quick to reply to our inquiries. We would come back again.

Christmas/Winter visit

We had a peaceful and enjoyable stay at Joe’s home. The house was comfortable and clean, and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cookware. We especially enjoyed the free-standing gas fireplace in the living room. It made the house warm and cozy. The neighborhood is tucked away and quiet. Even though it was cold, we enjoyed several walks into Edgartown center. We had some wild turkeys come to call in the yard on Christmas day. Joe was easy to communicate with when we had some questions. All in all, it was a relaxing getaway. Just what we wanted!

About the host

Hosted by Joseph McMahon

Host profile image
After a very long search I purchased this home in 1998, at the time knowing little about Martha's Vineyard or owning a vacation home. I soon found that I enjoyed the whole process of providing summer rentals so much that I went on to purchase another home in Oak Bluffs, and then one more after that. One important thing I have learned and always try to keep in mind is that guests come to my homes for perhaps their one vacation of the year, and this time is very important to each them -- which is why we are always striving to make the house better each year, sometimes with big items such as installing central ac, or in small ways, such as improving the wireless or adding a few more dvds and games for the kids.

Why they chose this property

Once I got the idea to buy a home on MV, it really 'stuck' and I got a bit obsessed by it. That's a good thing, because it was no easy task. I can remember going to the island on the coldest, wettest, most dreary winter days you can imagine, to look at all kinds of homes -- I didn't like any of them. The search was expanded to Nantucket, as well, with no success. I finally reached the point of giving up when my broker asked me to come out just one more time to look at a property that was not listed for sale. That home was, of course, this property on Hannah's Way. I don't think I was in the home 60 seconds before I knew I had found what I was looking for.

What makes this property unique

One thing that makes this home stand out from most ranches and capes is that the living room has a vaulted ceiling. This ceiling gives this relatively small home a feeling of openness and space that I think you notice as soon as you walk in the front door. Visitors always tell me that the place 'feels' like home, and I think this starts with the first impression one gets upon entering. Another nice feature is that the home is very close to Main Street, yet it is on just about the quietest lot you will find. So you have easy access to town plus a peaceful home to relax in.
