This charming home borders the fields of Ghost Island Farm and is centrally located in West Tisbury. Our friends built this house with their father and put a lot of love and attention into the details: antique wood flooring, rustic Italian tiled floors, handcrafted doors, old beams. Breakfast at the kitchen counter, lunch on the screened-in porch, BBQ on the private deck and dine at a large antique oak table. Open, airy layout perfect for socializing. Upstairs bedrooms have window seats that overlook the fields of Ghost Island Farm. The house is sheltered from State Road by woods and feels very private with its own backyard. Beach passes are available for Lambert's Cove Beach, which is one of the most beautiful beaches on the island and only 2 miles away. The house is centrally nestled on the island: the Vineyard Haven ferry is only 10 mins away, the Flying Horses in Oak Bluffs is 15 mins, up-island Cronig's grocery store is 1 min, and Larson's Fish Market in Menemsha is 14 mins. We have high speed wifi and a smart flatscreen tv with streaming so you can stay as connected or disconnected as you wish. Recent improvements: Air conditioning, new roof, new refrigerator, new dryer, and extensive landscaping. Linens and towels not provided, but there are options to bring or rent on island with delivery. Come enjoy!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed calling this house our home for a week. It's spacious and has every kitchen utensil you can think of. Everything went smooth from the booking to the end of our stay. Andy was great at communicating and answering any and all questions in a timely fashion. We're definitely looking forward to future visits at this property.
Andy has a quint New England homes. It was right off the main road and centrally located. I contacted Andy with questions and he was very responsive

Needs TLC
When we arrived, the house obviously had not been cleaned. The floors were dirty (our feet turned black after walking in bare feet). With a 15-month-old child who is on the floors constantly, we had issues even letting him play on the floor. The upstairs bathroom was filthy. My daughter and son-in-law used many baby wipes to get the area around the sink clean enough to use. When we contacted the owner, he did everything he could to rectify the problem. The cleaners came the next morning and did a great job. The house was cleaned very well and quickly too. The house looks like it once was a beautiful home, but it needs a lot of TLC. The front door barely closes because the top hinge is broken off the door jamb. There are big water stains on the kitchen ceiling--is the upstairs bathroom leaking into that area? There are smaller water stains on the living room ceiling too. The cabinet in the kitchen (described as the pantry in the captions below the photos) is missing one of the knobs on the door. There is a a cabinet with two doors and some drawers below these doors in the downstairs bedroom but the pull handle on one of the doors is missing, making it very difficult to open. The overhead light in the downstairs bathroom flickers when the light is on for more than 2-3 minutes. Is there an issue with the light bulb or the wiring? And the door to that bathroom is starting to fall apart. The whole side where the door knob is is getting very loose, like the glue is disintegrating.
Beautiful cabin as pictured! Perfect amount of space for 5 adults. We loved the backyard and large kitchen. A few small things: only 1 roll of toilet paper per person and 1 roll of paper towels for the stay. We had to seek out Kleenex but it worked just fine. I definitely recommend for anyone staying in the area.
We had a wonderful stay at Andy’s home. The house is spacious, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed grilling and meals on the screened in porch, our daughter loved the basement ping pong table, and it was helpful to have one bedroom on the ground floor.
Highly recommended!
My friends and I had a wonderful time on Andy’s property! We were on the island for a wedding and it was the perfect spot for our group. The outdoor area was perfect for daytime lounging and we loved eating meals in the closed-in porch off the kitchen. We also admired the antique furniture and had fun playing music on the record player. Overall, it was an excellent place and we’d highly recommend it for any group.
We enjoyed our brief time here, only two nights. It is nestled in the woods and very private. Communication with owner is easy and responsive. You’ll find everything you could need here except sheets and towels which is clearly noted in the listing. We are midwesterners and never experienced this before so renting linens for a short stay was an inconvenience but none the less, I would surely stay here again.
I’m hesitant to write a great review because I don’t want other people booking this place up! I’ve brought my family here two years in a row now, and it is really is the perfect spot. The house is comfy and has everything you need for a good Vineyard vacation: kitchen gear, outdoor shower, fire pit, big kitchen table for games and meals. Thank you for letting us rent your home, Andy & fam!
This is our 3rd time staying here. What an amazing property. Set back from the road and it abuts a farm. House is clean and spacious. The new split AC system is totally an added bonus. Andy, the owner, is fantastic to work with. We will be back every year.
We had a lovely, comfortable weekend staying at Andy’s cottage. The place was cozy and Andy was very accommodating. We spent very little time at the house as we were visiting my sister & family, so spent all our time with her, but, we slept beautifully and enjoyed breakfast in the screened in porch.
We stayed for a rainy, miserable rainy day weekend, but there was plenty to do and the house was warm. Lots of nearby food options. Bring or rent your own sheets!
We loved this house and all that it came with - privacy, easily accessible to many locations, and much more! We found the house to be perfectly clean upon arrival and left it the same way when we exited. The owner, Andy is super easy to reach and very accommodating with anything we needed. We will absolutely stay at this home again and look forward to when we do! Thank you!
Simply the perfect getaway for our family! The house is very spacious, well-appointed with everything we needed to cook, relax and entertain. We particularly enjoyed vigorous rounds of table tennis, and breakfast out in the beautiful sunroom and outdoor deck. The location is superb - less than 10 minutes drive to Vineyard Haven downtown restaurants and supermarket, and central starting point to explore rest of the island. Staying at the house also comes with access to purchase a pass to Lambert Cove private beach - which had stunning views, and perfect for swimming without the big waves common at south shore beaches. Andy is the consummate host - super responsive and helpful at every turn. Could not recommend more!
