The house is a "GEM"!!

Perfectly located, it's close to everything; the ferry, the shops, the bars, the restaurants. We spent our time exploring the Island on foot. The house exceeded our expectations! The host, David was so great! He answered promptly to my texts when i had questions. I definitely recommend it!

Lovely house

We were 3 couples in town for a wedding and this place was perfect for us. We had plenty of space and it was very clean, well stocked for cooking and has a lovely, cosy island feel to it. We didn’t get to explore much but we did have a little walk around the great neighbourhood and it was only a short walk to the beach. We would definitely come back for a longer time next time

Lovely stay!

We have been coming to the island every year since I was a kid and have been staying in OB at the same house for over 10. This was the first year in a long time we stayed somewhere new and this was a great find! Quiet location with easy, walkable access to downtown, inkwell beach, and niantic park for the little ones. Everything was clean, kitchen and linens fully stocked. Bikes and beach toys available as well! Separate cottage was great for my parents who could get some rest since my little ones were up very very early! Property manager was very communicative, reaching out upon check in to make sure everything was okay. We needed to replace a light bulb and asked for a drying rack which was supplied the next day. He was also very communicative upon check out and understanding! Overall, a great experience and definitely would recommend for families with young children.

Charming home in a great location close to town. Home appeared to not have been used for a bit and cleaned before arrival as the surfaces were pretty dusty. Otherwise, everything was great

Family Weekend Getaway

We brought 4 adults and 3 kids to stay for a long weekend and had a great time. David was a great host, extremely accommodating and great communication. The house itself was extremely conveniently located just a short walk from Oaks Bluff. The house itself had a big kitchen and lounge space with plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed our visit and would definitely recommend renting this house. We look forward to our next visit! Thanks David!

Lovely house, but stay marred by mice

Delightful house; great location. Unfortunately, our visit was marred by 3 mouse sightings over 2 days. Owner was responsive and personally came out to place multiple mouse traps in the home. Initially, my wife was quite uncomfortable staying there and annoyed we had to deal with mice on our luxurious vacation. When she expressed this to the owner, he called her "condescending." That was poor customer service on his part. It seemed he didn't understand the magnitude of the situation and felt she was overreacting. Owner attempted to find us another place to stay, but the houses were smaller, not nearly as nice and most were up-island. Given that 2 days of our stay were marred by the observance of mice and we felt an overall discomfort throughout the week knowing we were staying in a home that had a mouse infestation, and we had to be repeatedly interrupted by visits throughout the week from the caretaker and owner, we requested a refund for 2 nights; however, the owner refused, ultimately agreeing to refund just 1 night.

Great House and Close to Everything

We stayed the week of July 30 with our extended family, which was 8 adults and 2 young children. The house was perfect for all of us, we especially enjoyed sitting outside on the large deck. The small guest house was a big hit for one family with a 4 year year old! The house is in a great location close to downtown Oak Bluffs. We enjoyed our daily morning walks to “Mocha Motts” on Circuit Ave for coffee We have stayed at different houses on Martha’s Vineyard for many years and found David’s to be one of the more enjoyable stays

Great Family House

This was our first family vacation with our grown children (7 adults plus 1 baby). It was the perfect house for us. There was plenty of room for everyone to be together both inside the house and out back at the large round table. Extra beach chairs and bikes were provided which was great! Walkable distance to Tony's Market, and Oak Bluffs restaurants and shops.I highly recommend this house for your stay on the Island!
