About this property

Comfortable Island Home, Easy Access to Beaches and Town

Salt Box style Log Home with open floor plan built by my family with a country feel, located on a wooded lot in the down island town of Oak Bluffs. Central Air and easy walk to local beach that is used by families of the Lagoon Heights area. Beautiful town and state beaches close by. Charter fishing, golf, great restaurants and ample shopping for the occasional rainy day. Many local attractions to visit, gingerbread homes, tabernacle, oldest functioning carrousel, walking/ bike trails and nature preserves to keep one busy while enjoying the the Vineyard's laid back, casual nature. First floor bedroom has queen bed, upstairs has the full bed. Loft area has three twin beds. Screened porch has wicker furniture, two couches and two comfortable chairs. The home provides a comfortable retreat for those that prefer to be away from crowds, yet only a short trip to town and the beaches.
*If not able to bring your own linens, they can be provided for an additional fee that is dealt with at the time of arrival. I will discuss with the guests prior to arrival.

Keywords: Log home, deck, screened porch, grill, outside shower, quiet neighborhood, walk to local beach, 1.1 miles to town, restaurants, shopping and fishing. Golf close by at Farm Neck and a 10-15 minute ride to Mink Meadows Golf Club in Vineyard, Haven.

Check in time generally around noon on day of arrival. Varies according to departure of party leaving. Check out time is generally 10 am to provide sufficient time for turnover(terminal cleaning) before next parties arrival.

Owner does not break up a prime summer week, therefore all bookings need to be for seven nights. In addition, the weeks need to run Saturday to Saturday, as the turnover day with support with cleaning is on Saturday during prime time. All other dates can book a minimum of two nights at anytime.

About the host

Hosted by John/Linda Gurney

I'm a retired Healthcare Administrator and my wife is a practicing Licensed Clinical Social Worker in private practice. We purchased the land in 1965 and built in "83. Additions added in 2007.

Why they chose this property

This is a family home that we now rent. We also have a two bedroom apartment on the property that we use for ourself, primarily on weekends.

Home is generally available from May1st thru October 31 each year.

What makes this property unique

What we find attractive about the Vineyard is that the character of the island has not changed in the 57 years that we have been coming here. There is more activity and certainly more homes than in the past but the feel is the same. Clean beaches and overall a quint place to visit and enjoy the tranquility of the island.
