A beautifully cared-for sanctuary

This lovely and tastefully turned-out home is set on a a large piece of land in easy reach of Edgartown. The grounds and flora are tended to perfection and present a very pleasing backdrop to a coffee on one of the ample patios. We very much enjoyed our stay here and Carlin was a joy to deal with.

Heaven on Earth

This was one of the best vacations of my life. The house is beautiful, the grounds are beautiful, the location is excellent. We had so many plans for this trip, but wound up spending so much of our time just at the house or in the gardens because it was so beautiful. The house is close to Morning Glory Farms where we went every day to get fresh fruit and vegetables, home-baked breads and cheese from local farms. I will never rent anywhere else on Martha's Vineyard because nothing could be more perfect than this.

Our second stay was as good as the first!!

Having rented this spot the previous year, we knew how wonderful it is, and we were not disappointed the second time around! With three generations under the same roof it is great to have a place that offers something for all ages. The kids love the freedom of riding bikes to the beach and having the house's lower level all to themselves. The parents enjoy the hot tub, cocktails on the porch, and walks to nearby Edgartown. And the older set loves just hanging at the house, so quiet and peaceful, with cozy furnishings inside and beautiful, lush gardens throughout the property. Carlin is a wonderful hostess. She takes pride in her abode and it shows. She also wants you to enjoy yourself, which is easy to do at this treasure of a property. We'll be back!

What a Great Week!

Our family of 5 joined a family of 4 to rent this beautiful, well equipped home for a week. We had 5 kids ranging in age from 16-3 yrs old & the house accommodated us easily. All the bedrooms were private and all the beds were comfortable. The bathrooms are well appointed & the outdoor shower is awesome. The kids loved the hot tube & hogged it away from the parents. Though the kitchen was a little small with limited work space, it was adequate with plenty of pots, pans, bowls & utensils, plus we used the grill extensively which worked out great. The grounds are beautifully maintained with plenty of room running around, catches & other outdoor games. The deck off the kitchen was our goto for meals & entertaining. The location is secluded and private, yet very close to Edgartown, Morning Glory Farm, South Beach and West Tisbury Rd. Thank you Carlin for offering your home. You are a model hostess with class and taste, and your house is lovely and welcoming. We had a fantastic time!

Wonderful Experience!!!

Three days and two nights of almost constant rain...wind-whipped by Hurricane Joaquin...AND YET we had a fantastic time! This pet friendly house is beautifully decorated/appointed and very well equipped with many comfortable places for us and our four guests to gather and relax, both indoors and out. The grounds, backyard hot tub and outdoor fireplace were (weather permitting) highlights of the outdoor experience. The dining room table was the epicenter of some hotly contested board games. The family photos and memorabilia created a warm and hospitable environment. The house is located on a quiet street and is within easy walking distance of charming Edgartown. Carlin, the owner, was extremely helpful, engaged and interesting - she even had the freezer stocked with delicious muffins upon our arrival! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this beautiful home.

LOVED IT!

We felt fortunate to find this property and thoroughly enjoyed it. The grounds are beautiful, with flowering vegetation surrounding the house, wind chimes singing in a light breeze, and views of a far off pasture from the deck off the kitchen. There is also a wonderful outdoor shower, and a hot tub around the back of the property. Inside the house, the owner, Carlin--who was a delight to work with--has created a sumptuous environment, with plush fabrics on cozy couches and dozens of interesting paintings and prints hanging on the walls. The house is conveniently located between Edgartown, where we walked to many times, and South Beach, where the kids biked almost daily. We also walked, biked or drove to nearby Morning Glory Farm. Three generations of us were in the house, and each of us loved it in his/her own way. A wonderful spot to kick back, relax, enjoy each other and Martha's Vineyard!

Wonderful!!!

We just returned from a heavenly stay at this lovely property. So relaxing - vintage Vineyard in all the best ways. Carlin, the owner, is a delight to work with, her property gracious and comfortable, and the setting ideal (just a short walk or bike ride to town or to South Beach and to nearby Morning Glory Farm and the fantastic Edgartown Meat and Fish Market). As lovely as the interior is, I especially enjoyed the outside. The landscaping and flowers are just beautiful - and there is nearly always a great north-south breeze blowing - making it a perfect place to flop down on the comfortable hammock and read. Our only small change might be to find a way to jack up the air conditioning, but we are folks who really like cold, perhaps more than most :-). Highly recommend.

Magical Getaway in Martha's Vineyard

We rented this property for two weeks and thoroughly enjoyed it. Walking into it for the first time was like entering a photo-spread in House Beautiful. It was exquisitely decorated and had every amenity possible. Its country-french flair was inviting and extremely comfortable to "hang out" in. The large deck off the kitchen, nestled amidst hydrangea bushes bursting with flowers and constant cool breezes, was our favorite place to gather; whether it was with our morning coffee and quickbread, or our afternoon wine and cheese (fresh daily from Morning Glory Farm just a short bike ride away). The location was perfect. We had a car, but usually chose the easy walk into town or to bike to our destination. This was far from a typical rental property as evidenced by the quality of the linens, kitchenware, furnishings, and amenities available. The owner has graciously opened her home to travelers and provided everything possible for a memorable vacation.

Edgartown Home

House was great -- very comfortable, spacious and perfect for our needs (2 adults and four teens). We didn't use the two downstairs bedrooms but we could have fit one more family of 4. The yard was beautiful and expertly landscaped, and the outdoor shower was fabulous. Our 7-year old dog enjoyed the yard, and every morning, we had our coffee on the deck overlooking the tremendous hydrangeas. The house is a 20-minute walk to downtown Edgartown and it's a safe to walk, day or night (would recommend a flashlight/flashlight phone app for night walking). The house sits near the end of a neighborhood street so it's very quiet and there's a very nice neighbor next door. I would recommend this house to anyone ... families with young kids, families with teens, or a group of adults. Enjoy!

Lovely inside and out

We spent a week at this lovely home. Walk to beautiful Edgartown, bike to Morning Glory Farm in the morning for fresh produce, coffee and fabulous baked goods or just peddle to the beach for some sun and sea.This house provide a fantastic location for everything. The house has multi-level gardens and outside space to dine, read or just nap in the sun. The best thing about this house is its warm and wonderful energy - it's a winner folks. You will love your time there, we sure did!
