About this property
Oceanfront Cottage on Smith Point with Beautiful Water Views, New Kitchen
The Scallop is a beautifully furnished 3-bedroom oceanfront cottage on Smith Point, at the western tip of Nantucket. The house features stunning ocean views, a beautifully renovated kitchen/living area, extensive outdoor decks and easy beach access on a private path.
Smith Point is prized for its tranquility, easy access to the water and amazing sunsets. The cottage faces the ocean to the west and faces the head of Hither Creek, a salt water inlet, to the south. It is about 300 feet from a beautiful surf beach and about three blocks from the calm Madaket Harbor beach. Our house is an easy walk (about 10 minutes) to Millie's restaurant and market, and we certainly have been known to head over there for a serving of ice cream, a carryout dinner to enjoy on our deck, or some other amenity.
The living room has a beautiful ocean view and opens onto a second-story deck featuring a dining area with the same great view. Outside, on ground level, there is a patio with a teak table and chairs and a deck with outdoor chairs. The cottage also features a nice large flat lawn and an outdoor shower.
The WAVE shuttle bus is free and picks up passengers at the bus stop at Millie's. The cottage is also close to the Madaket bike path, part of Nantucket's excellent network of bike paths.
Nantucket offers world-class dining, shopping, golf, fishing and outdoor adventures. For kids, the island offers great day camps, sports lessons and other activities. You will love it!
IMPORTANT SECURITY NOTE: If you are booking with us through VRBO, we will not ask for a direct payment or wire transfer of funds, nor should you make any such payment. For your security, you should pay through VRBO with a credit card.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Tom Hutton
We bought The Scallop in 2004, after selling a cottage in Surfside, on the south shore of the island. We have two grown boys who still love their visits to the cottage and the chance to explore the island.
Why they chose this property
We chose the location due to its wonderful access to beaches and boating opportunities, as well as lack of traffic (both car and air traffic). Crossing over the bridge to Smith Point is like taking a step back in time. We find it incredibly relaxing.
What makes this property unique
The cottage offers easy, quick access to both the surf beach and the harbor beach. You can go downtown and explore the shops and restaurants, or just stay out in our peaceful part of the island. We are a short walk from Millie's restaurant and convenience shop. Nantucket also offers a great network of bike trails and a great shuttle bus system, including a stop near the cottage.
