We rented LANDFALL the third week in August 2011 and to say we were happy would be the understatement of the year! It's hard to know where to start, everything is so fabulous!
The cottage is BEAUTIFULLY done; top of the line everything (Sub-Zero, Wolf range, freezer drawers, etc), really comfortable, completely user friendly, anything and everything you could want, and honestly it looks like it should be in a magazine, it's that great! The expansive kitchen is a chef's dream and the super-comfortable living room, with its reccessed LCD TV, was perfect for watching the morning news or, even better, watching a movie on a dreary afternoon!
The only thing better than the cottage itself was the setting! As I said, we were there in August, a normally busy time on Nantucket, yet we felt like we had the Island to ourselves. The views and sunsets from the cottage are like the ones you see in a postcard, spectacular! And what could be better than waking up, jumping in the outdoor shower overlooking the harbor, making some coffee, and walking down onto your own private beach to welcome the day?! The harbor-front beach is a wonderful place to spend the day. An excellent place to catch some sun, go for a swim, use the kayak, and perfect for children to play in the warm, calm, shallow water.
While town is a short 15 minute ride away, the Wauwinet (one of Nantucket's top hotels) is less than a 2 minute walk away. My wife and I loved going over for a drink while watching the sunset and Toppers (the restaurant) is a true dining experience. If a massage is what you want, they have a Spa as well.
The owners have thought of everything when it comes to this cottage and you certainly will not be disappointed. We hope everyone has as good an experience as we did, but just not the week we are hoping to rent it again!
