Perfect for us!

Very clean, comfortable, convenient! Well furnished and equipped with everything we needed to be at home away from home! The outside shower is such a treat! Owner was very responsive! We enjoyed biking and Mytoi Japanese Garden on Chappy, The Aquinnah sunset, a show at MV Playhouse for the first time, delicious Caribbean meals from Chef Deon at the VFW in OB, many beaches and light houses and shopping. We hope to be back soon and for longer!

Perfect Getaway

This is our 2nd time staying here and certainly will not be our last! It’s the perfect location especially during busy season on the vineyard because you’re able to get away and get a bit of paradise yet are close enough to everything you need. Super clean and comfortable house with a well stocked kitchen in terms of appliances. Close to our favorite fish market - it brings everything you need. This year we even forgot our chairs and found a set of 4 that were better than what we would have brought. Thanks again for the perfect getaway!

Perfect secluded, well-stocked spot

Cannot recommend this property more! Size was perfect for more than just the two of us - well stocked kitchen, perfectly secluded off the beaten path but close enough to town. Wrap around deck was VERY nice and high speed internet was greatly appreciated while we worked that week. 100% would stay again and am planning to book for our next trip asap! Truly a treasure!

Quiet neighborhood and fun "upside down" house

We stayed here in April for a quick little getaway and it was the perfect, nice and quiet neighborhood that we love so much at home (we're light sleepers). Tucked in the woods, with all the comforts of home, we found a perfect place to stay that was also a great jumping-off point to get to other locations on the island. Great for families, we found the walk into town manageable with a 3 and 7 year old (with some carrying of the toddler). Thanks so much for a great stay-we may make this an annual trip in the spring!

Clean, well appointed home in great neighborhood

Our group of 4 enjoyed this home very much- it sits in a beautifully wooded, quiet neighborhood within easy walking distance to Vineyard Haven. The home was squeaky clean, well stocked with kitchen basics and had a ton of puzzles, games and books too. The beds were comfortable, there were plenty of linens, pillows and towels. The furniture and decor were comfortable and made for a wonderful long weekend full of food, games and laughs. Well worth a revisit next time we’re in Vineyard Haven!

Feels Private Yet It Is Close to VH!!

We loved this house!! It was well equipped, clean and comfortable. Having 2 full bathrooms was wonderful and washer and dryer upstairs, fabulous! Being so close the Vinyard Haven and yet feeling secluded felt special. Having two levels of porches, with a screened-in room was just great. We could all be outside and comfortable yet find some privacy for the parents and ‘kids’ to hang. I would highly recommend this house!! If we could make it even better, we would add a powder room on the top, main floor, maybe where the big closet is. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!

Love Blue Hollow!

We've stayed at this awesome home 3 times so far and are looking forward to our 4th stay. We always look forward to the updates that Barry and Roberta have completed. The sky lights are a really nice touch. This home is close to VH either by bike or walking. While we spend most of our time in Oak Bluffs, we have 2 kids, it's a very short bike ride to this town also. I would recommend this home to anyone and we hope to get back there this year as well.

Great rental for beach road weekend!

This was a great find within walking distance to downtown. The host was great, accommodating a couple of requests and a great communicator. The beach with a pass for is beautiful and his parking spot is required and convenient, a short road walk to the beach. It is an older home and has a great cottage feel.

Pleasant stay

We stayed here in early May. It’s an upside-down house with bedrooms on the ground floor. I quite liked that. Unfortunately, we had to leave the island early, due to weather and ferry cancellations, but the home was lovely and comfortable and the host was very pleasant in his communications. Get the insurance if you’re going in off-season! It paid for the night we lost.

Exceeded our Expectations

This was our first time ever using VRBO but will not be our last. As a family, we would visit the summer just about every summer and this was a special find. It was quiet, safe and conveniently located on the island. We were blown away at the quality of this home and the photos listed on the website didn’t do it justice!! Everything was perfect, we will definitely look to return again next year! The ONLY downside I’d have to share is I think I may have left some items of clothing behind but that’s my own fault. Lesson learned to triple check dressers when departing

About the host

Hosted by Barry & Roberta Finkelstein

Host profile image
We have been coming to the Vineyard for decades and have loved it in every season. We have family on the Island, and as their families and ours expanded we decided we needed our own home.

Why they chose this property

We love the quiet, dead-end street with lots of trees. close enough to walk into town but far enough to be a true retreat with a feeling of privacy. There is lots of natural light, and the open floor plan upstairs makes it family friendly and great for entertaining. We love the wrap-around deck on the upper level and the large back yard.

What makes this property unique

Because we and our family spend so much time here ourselves we keep the home in great condition. It is well maintained, frequently updated, and furnished for comfort.

We love animals and wanted to make this property pet friendly for our renters as well.
