This home was very comfortable, provided many nice amenities, and Jill was an excellent host. We could easily walk to town, the harbor, and several nice restaurants.

Thank you for the thoughtful review! We hope you'll come back and stay with us again!
The house was perfect for our 2 week stay! It is darling, very clean and had everything we needed. Ideal location- easy walk to town, quick bike ride to Surfside/Nobadeer Beaches and close to bus stops to go any where else. Jill was wonderful and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

David, we appreciate the positive review! Thanks so much for choosing our cottage for your family's vacation and we do hope to see you again!
This is a wonderful house! We had a great stay and Jill was incredibly responsive. It's stocked with everything you need. Easy parking and walk to town. Only thing is that the downstairs bedroom does not have blinds, so if you have young kids who nap/wake-up early plan accordingly.

Amy, thank you for the thoughtful review & for being such a great guest. The downstairs bedroom does have curtains but yes, they are light filtering so I can see where having additional blackout shades might improve that experience for little travelers. Great idea! Hope to see you again next summer!
This was truly the best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in. The house has everything you need, is close to town and has a cute homey feel. Jill could not have been kinder letting us arrive early and checking in before our arrival. She was also very quick to respond! 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

Kayla,
You are the sweetest, thanks so much for your 5-star review! We're so happy you enjoyed your stay with us and thank YOU for being a top-notch guest. We'd love to welcome you back anytime!
We are a family of 4 with a 3.5yo and a 1.5yo and spent a perfect week on Nantucket in late July in this adorable and perfectly appointed cottage. Had everything we needed (high chair, pack and play, beach toys) for our 2 young boys and the master suite was wonderful as well. Ideal location - an easy 10-15 min walk into town, or grab the shuttle right at the end of the block! The check in process was very easy with a keyless code entry, and Jill was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Would love to come back again!

We truly appreciate the detailed review, Katherine! We'd love to welcome you back again.
After my husband died a few years ago, my best friend and I wanted to take a girls trip and landed on Nantucket. I discovered this amazing place on VRBO. It could not have been more perfect. We could walk everywhere. The accommodations were ideal for relaxing and cooking in when we chose not to go out. Our hostess Jill was so responsive and kind. The on my way home is immaculate and well appointed. It is a perfect place for two couples or a family. I would love to return.

Maria, thank you for your review but more importantly thank you for being a perfect guest! I'm so happy you had a memorable trip and of course, we'd love to welcome you back!
We loved the ability to rent for a long weekend rather than a full week. The house was immaculate and exactly as described. The master bedroom is particularly lovely - bright and airy. The home is apx 10 minutes from town and an easy bike ride to Nobadeer. Jill was very helpful and responsive. The home is located on a quiet side street but for those with young children, be aware that the street receives a fair amount of traffic (the Wave shuttle barrels down), so some caution is needed for families with young kids. We loved our weekend and the home was a perfect launchpad to explore Nantucket.
