Información de la propiedad

"The Carousel House" - Ocean Park - Featured in New York Times

This house, built in 1865, was featured in the New York Times article on Oak Bluffs, 'The President Was Here (Grant, That Is).' The article described the unique Victorian homes on Ocean Avenue as 'the Fifth Avenue of Oak Bluffs.' Our house was featured in the article, and photographed in the New York Times online slide show. It is a unique Victorian home, wonderful for family gatherings. The location is ideal - it sits at the heart of Ocean Park, with the closest access to Circuit Avenue of any of the homes on the Park.

The home has been completely renovated, including central air with two zones. Chef's kitchen with granite countertops and stainless appliances, a six burner commercial oven and a wine fridge. Bathroom sinks have marble tops. Four flat screen TVs.

This house has unique charm and convenience. Walk to everything - you don't need a car. The child friendly beach is just across the road, where you can make sandcastles in the sand, or stroll along the boardwalk above the beach, and rest on a bench facing the water. Or stay at home, sit on the porch and gaze over Ocean Park with its iconic gazebo. Have your own private front seat to the concerts and fireworks in Ocean Park during the summer.

It takes about 60 seconds to walk to Circuit Avenue and access the heart of Oak Bluffs: restaurants, quaint shops, art galleries, grocery store, wine and liquor store, hair salon, movies, ice cream parlors, churches, etc. Pick up the bike path from just in front of the house and ride around the island (bike rentals just a short stroll away). Visit the Flying Horses, the oldest carousel in America dating back to the 1800s, just a couple of short blocks away. Take a stroll to the harbor, and see the beautiful yachts docked there. Fly a kite in Ocean Park.

On rainy days, walk just yards away to the movie house, or entertain the kids in the arcade on Circuit Avenue, a 90 second run in the rain! Or stay home and watch movies on the big TV in the living room, or play a board game of Monopoly or Scrabble. Or lose yourself in a book from our small library.

Entire downstairs has hard wired speaker system that you can connect to your phone or tablet, and play your own music.

Be sure to wake up early at least one day of your vacation to catch the breathtaking sunrise over Nantucket Sound, easily visible from the two master bedrooms!

Fun Fact: The Emperor of Ocean Park, the New York Times best seller murder mystery, was written about this house. Read the book before you come, or on the porch while you are here, to relive this home's iconic history. We keep a couple of copies of the book in our bookcase for you to check out while you are with us.

We have stayed at the carousel house three previous times and enjoyed wonderful stays. The property condition this time did not reach the very high standard we had experienced during our prior stays, thus the lowered rating for this stay.

Our work team spent 3 nights at the Carousel House and had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful and well appointed. The location was absolutey perfect. It is walkable to shops, restaurants, the bus and the ferry. The expansive covered porch and rocking chairs provided a spectacular view of the park and ocean, and was great for people watching.

Absolutely wonderful off season stay

Couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend a week away. The house is gorgeous and had everything we needed. Grocery store was close by and a few restaurants and shops were still open despite going in the off season. The bedroom at the front overlooking Ocean Park was so comfortable and it was lovely to wake up to the sunrise. We will definitely stay here again!

My Vacation Stay at the Carousel House

My Friends and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for the Seven days. The House is beautiful and the location is prime. It is walking distance to all the Stores and Restaurants and it is right across from the Beach and a beautiful Park. Teresa and Justina were easy to communicate with. I would Definitely stay there again!

Great location, many places walkable. Great view of the ocean and morning sunrise. Easy walk to many restaurants and shopping. House is comfortable and all the basics are there. Don’t forget to bring or rent bed linens and towels. We enjoyed our stay! Kitchen is well-equipped. Beds were comfortable. Rocking on the front wrap around porch and people watching was our evening pastime, once we were done with our daily sights and shopping, and dinners. The last night we were there, we were lucky to have live music at the gazebo! What a nice bonus!

Tim, we are very sorry for the miscommunication about the thermostat on the second floor. We work with the top HVAC contractor on the island, and he is always available to service the thermostats (or any other air conditioning matter). We hope that you were able to get a round of beers with the $100 gift card we sent for your inconvenience, and we hope that you will return to visit us again. Kind regards, Justina

Rejuvenation and peaceful….location

We were a group of five besties, one stayed behind due to illness. . Our stay on Oak Bluff at the Carousel House was awesome from initial coordination with our Host, to saying goodbye to the neighbors next door. We each had our own comfortable room and plenty of lounging room around the house. The view of the Atlantic Ocean from the porch and bedroom balconies were PRICELESS!! I asked my group to give me a word to describe their experience and they were very similar; Rejuvenation, peaceful, accommodating, historic, and LOCATION!!!!!! We were a stones throw away from the ocean, Inkwell Beach, great shopping, best restaurants, and the Ferry! We can’t wait to book our next trip!!!!

Great family vacation!

This was our first visit to Martha’s Vineyard and the Carousel House was perfect for our party of 11! Including 8 adults and our 3 grandchildren under the age of 3. Oak Bluffs was the perfect town with its beach, Ocean Park, retail stores and children’s playground at Niantic Park and of course the location of the Carousel House cannot be beat!! We rented cars to tour the whole island one day and took the ferry to Nantucket another day. We were there during the Covid crisis so were happy for the kitchen and dining room that could seat us all for cooking and carrying out! The owner and property manager were immediately available the couple of times that we had questions! Thank you, Teresa!!

We are so pleased that you had a great vacation. These are trying times, and I am glad that your family was able to find joy in the Carousel House during the pandemic. We hope that you will return again when things get back to normal, and there will be even more reasons to enjoy this house and its location.

Best on Ocean Park

My family rented this house in August 2010, and we had what will go down as one of the best family vacations ever. Our kids are now 13 and 15, and when we have rented elsewhere on the island, I have spent much time as I do at home shuttling them around. But at the Clarke Carousel Cottage, they were able to be very independent, and walk to whatever they wanted: beach, pizza, ice cream, arcade, movies, etc. We were there in a heat wave, and all I can say is that I am glad we had central air conditioning. Our kids didn't have the normal crankiness that comes with being overheated - made it nicer for us. As others wrote, the house is fantastic with a dream kitchen. We have already booked for next year.

Girlfriends Old and New

The trip was phenomenal. We didn't all know each other but have made lifelong connections. The house was the perfect size and location. Beautiful kitchen. We met many locals who came in to chat and took info to possibly rent the house too. All communications with management was easy. We had no negative issues at all. A couple of drawbacks - steep stairs for women of a certain age with bad knees and hips and strange configuration of rooms upstairs above kitchen. Had to pass through rooms to get to shared bathroom. Score still nearly 10. Great experience.

2021 Vineyard Adventure

Location, Location, Location. The best location in Oak Bluffs. Minor hiccups-faulty door knobs and latches, (property mgr Omar was very responsive), code box with key a little tricky but workable. An extra bath would have been nice for 9 adults, but again it was workable. If your group has leg issues or 55+, the stairs may be a challenge. All bedrooms are on 2nd floor. Sofas need updating for comfort but workable. This property accomplished our goal. Reuniting and connecting with friends. Spending some quality time in a great destination. Overall we had a great time. Thank you Mary and the other 8 members of 9 United Visions

My family has enjoyed Martha's Vineyard for many years. My family came from Connecticut originally, but I was born in California, where I grew to have a love for beaches. Now living in New York, we drive past many other more convenient beach communities to reach that special place where time stands still: Martha's Vineyard.
