Tuck’t in Back Cottage: Your In-Town Retreat on Nantucket Island
LAST CALL 2025 SPECIAL: Stay for 2, 3 or 4 nights during the upcoming holiday week/weekend at a discounted nightly rate of $399 so you may enjoy the splendors of our "Faraway Island" and save (special nightly rate applies to the nights of 10/6/25 thru and including 10/13/25).
Our 5-star-rated premier, in-town vacation rental property on Nantucket Island is within a short walk of Main Street's shops, restaurants, attractions and activities and thus has become home for a number of regular guests who simply love the amenities, charm, convenience and hospitality of a well-cared-for vacation rental sanctuary with everything you might need to make the perfect getaway for a few days, a week or even longer. 2026 is already booking up rapidly so please take a look at our offering and let us know if we can be of service to you in the late spring, summer or early fall of 2026. We'd love to welcome you at Tuck't in Back Cottage, one of Nantucket's most sought-after and delightful in-town stay options for one to maximally two adults.
Tuck't in Back Cottage consists of a bi-level "Nantucket Cottage" where you can pull up and enjoy a close in-town location without the noise, hustle-and-bustle and concentration of island vacationers and day trip visitors and yet get to the heart of the action within minutes.
The Cottage's lower level consists of a welcoming tiled mudroom containing your own private laundry facilities and access to the upstairs apartment. The spacious upper full-floor, studio apartment features a king bed, drop-leaf dining table, comfy living room seating and state-of-the-art bathroom and kitchen. The beautifully renovated, tile and marble bathroom includes an enlarged shower stall with rain shower head and hand controls with a lovely vanity and commode and is supplied with premium toiletries and plenty of stored extra bath and beach towels. The updated kitchen includes a stainless-steel refrigerator-freezer with automatic ice maker, top-of-line dishwasher, solid surface range and oven, and an array of smaller appliances (microwave, automatic drip coffeemaker, automatic can opener, toaster oven) along with every conceivable kitchen aid and houseware item you might need to make your visit pleasurable. Cable TV and WiFi is provided at no additional charge.
Outside you can enjoy your own private sundeck, outdoor shower and usage of all types of beach equipment, not to mention a designated off-street in-town parking space if you're using a vehicle on the island.
We think you'll agree that Tuck't in Back Cottage's amenities and convenience provide our guests a much better value than that of any costly island hotel or inn.
Please inquire today with any questions you may have and reserve before all our available dates become a thing of the past. We look forward to welcoming you at Tuck't in Back Cottage on beautiful Nantucket Island soon for a first or repeat visit, which understandably may very well become a tradition of yours for years to come...Nantucket has that effect on many people!
Please tell us a little about yourselves and the purpose of your visit when requesting a reservation so we may help you assess whether our property is the right option for you.
We look forward to hearing from you. Many thanks for reading this far!
Sincerely,
David & Jeffrey
