Summary: I haven't used VRBO or their competitor much but this rental sold me on it. I was apprehensive spending so much on this; but was overwhelmed with the beautiful design, high end appliances and all the bathrooms. The courtyard in the back was very accommodating for our 11 guests. Its my dream home for sure and we just loved it. Took Uber only for luggage to ferry and wedding events otherwise can walk to the wharf area. Beautiful experience for the whole family and it had everything we needed. I hope to rent this again!.

Summary: Can’t say enough good things about the property and the owners . Great location, historical / authentic decor but with updated bathrooms. We had a blast.
Maeve C. Jun 9, 2025 01:52:14 AM
Summary: Amazing house! Had everything we needed. Perfect location, house had all the amenities we needed, and it was clean and updated.
Stephanie D. May 15, 2025 07:08:22 AM
Summary: We stayed for 3 nights at this historic and beautifully restored property in May 2025 as a group of 12 adults and could not be more thrilled with this choice. It was a short walk to the center of main street and a quiet location with a lovely garden and outdoor furniture to enjoy. The interior is spacious with plenty of room for us to spread out, and also come together for meals. While the dining area technically seats 8, the owner very kindly ordered extra folding chairs for us so we could seat our full group of 12 around the table very comfortably. We had every kitchen utensil, pot, and pan needed to prepare a full lobster and clambake, and the kitchen was big enough that everyone could easily pitch in to help prep or clean up. The linens were all high quality and each of the 5 bathrooms were PERFECT, even for clean-freaks and design-snobs. Great water-pressure, plenty of hot water, even for a large group. We all loved this beautiful home and each guest agreed we'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

Summary: We loved our springtime stay in this gorgeous home. The large & open kitchen, number of beds and bathrooms was perfect for our group of girlfriends. Even with lots of rain, the walkability to downtown restaurants and shops was perfect. We had one slight reason to reach out to the host but they were accommodating and quick to respond. Would recommend and hope to stay again.

Summary: Great location, well shocked, wonderful home for a family gathering.
Rika S. Dec 3, 2024 10:34:15 AM
Summary: We had a great stay for the Thanksgiving week. The proximity to town and our other family and friends was perfect. We had enough space for 11 of us to hang, play games, yet have our own space. Kitchen was fantastic.
Dan B. Nov 29, 2024 03:09:35 AM
Summary: This property is terrific. We have stayed in many short term rental properties in North America and Europe and this was one of the very best. It was immaculate, and had abundant cooking supplies to make a large meal (which we did). It is also historically interesting -- one of the oldest houses in Nantucket -- and in a great location. Check in was easy. We will definitely come again
Helen K. Nov 2, 2024 09:47:05 PM
Summary: The house was a perfect fit for our group of friends who all met on Nantucket the summer of ‘74. Roomy, comfortable-perfect for sharing our happy memories. The weather was also amazingly warm and pleasant, made visiting our old haunts so easy and fun!
Robyn G. Oct 30, 2024 02:28:59 AM
Summary: A perfect spot close to town with plenty of space for all. Our hosts were accommodating - we had a great stay!
