Family vacation home

We enjoyed our trip to Nantucket! We had a few hiccups but unrelated to the house, and Jere was very supportive. The kitchen is clean and new and was really well stocked. Most of our group used the outdoor shower instead of the indoor shower, even though that was nicely redone too. Outdoor spaces are great. The only thing I would suggest for travelers looking to rent this house, is to rent chairs and an umbrella. The owner does have some but maybe not enough for a big group. Just something to think about. Other than that, this is a well loved family home that is nothing fancy but perfectly perfect for a family vacation.

Comfortable and convenient

We had a great stay! The house is a good size for a family or group. It is well maintained and the new kitchen and bath are beautiful and fully equipped. Location was very convenient as well - minutes to town, Stop & Shop and beaches, and right on the bike trail. We would love to stay again!

Wedding weekend in Nantucket

The house was perfect for four adults and two children, ages 5 and 8. Children’s room has two bunk beds to sleep 4 and windows have child guards. House is comfortable with an easy open layout on the first floor between kitchen, dining area and living room. The location of the house was also great - just a few minutes from center of town and beaches, golf and Bartlett’s Farm. Owner was accessible by phone and very kind. We would definitely return and ask for this house.

Wonderful experience...expectations exceeded!!

We just returned from a week at this beautiful family beach-house on Nantucket. Our expectations were exceeded. Jere was a wonderful host who went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed while we were there. The house was nicely stocked, extremely clean, well organized and very spacious. The amenities were fantastic and included a beautiful brand new state of the art outdoor grill, new kitchen appliances, and a FUN outdoor fire pit for s'mores! The shed was stocked with everything we needed for days at the beach. This home is beautiful and perfect for a large family. A true GEM....we made lots of wonderful memories and cant wait to return! Thank you again for sharing your home Jere!!

Center Of It All

We absolutely loved everything about this place. A little review: 1) Center of island so you could access all the great stuff with little effort (we biked 2 days to 'Sconset, 1 day to Madaket, 5 days to Surfside, 4 times downtown, among many other adventures). 2) The outdoor shower is heavenly!!!! 3) Great common area with kitchen/dining room/family room all together. 4) Awesome outdoor fire-it 5) Very helpful owners 6) Lots of amenities.

a lovely retreat

The house was clean and comfortable and the owner a pleasure to work with. The house was convenient to beach, Bartlett's Farm, transportation, a quiet walk along Miacomet Pond to the south shore, bike paths, and town. We particularly appreciated the landscaped garden area surrounded by hydrangeas with umbrella covered seating area with firepit. Charming!!

The property is charming and in a quiet area. Great for a quiet getaway for singles or couples. Helps to rent a vehicle to explore the island due to long waits on community bus. Overall an excellent vacation experience!

Everything you need in a great location!

We were 2 young families staying at the house - 2 couples and 4 kids (5, 4, 3, 1 yrs). Location has easy access to both town and beach with car or bike. Bartlett's farm is easy by bike or car and there is a playground for kids - not to mention the good food and groceries. We rented a bikes and trailer and the kids had a blast on the bike paths to and from town/beach. Our days had great weather and so we spent most of the time at the beach and the outdoor shower made cleaning the kids very easy and fun. Great owners who had everything at the house we needed for the week. We brought food with a car and did more meals in than most probably will, but Jere and Liz have done a good job outfitting the house with all the equipment you need to enjoy a week on Nantucket. The house has a nice deck for outdoor eating with grill. 2 bathrooms was key for our crew, wonderful sea breezes at night though the many windows, there is a gas fire place should you have any chilly nights. All in 2 thumbs up from everyone!

Lisa B., Where do you live?

Perfect location and very accommodating!

The house was just waiting for us and we felt at home right away. We enjoyed the location as it was so close to the bike paths and there is nothing like riding to the beach! The owner was completely available when we had a question about the washing machine (was running on hot water only). It was also very easy to get into town and to get to the Polpis area. We had a couple of teens who figured out the bus system and quick frankly, it was a highlight to watch them navigate that process!! Would recommend this for families or get-togethers - our weather was absolutely perfect! Loved the Sunday - Sunday rental option.

About the host

Hosted by Jere Johnston

Host profile image
We have vacationed on Nantucket for 35 years and have owned the house since 2010. We spend as much time as possible on the island, including winter, and would like to share our Nantucket experience with as many as possible as we love the island and all it has to offer for everyone in the family.

Why they chose this property

It's a fully equipped beach house that was constructed as an all season residence in 1987. It is centrally located between town and south shore beaches and is immediately accessible to the Surfside/Miacomet shuttle running every 20 minutes in summer and to a paved bike trail, part of island-wide biking trails. A very short walk leads to a wonderful conservation land walking trail passing Miacomet Pond and leading to the open Atlantic at Miacomet beach and a small beach at the ocean side tip of Miacomet Pond. (Great for small children.) 5 minute drive to Miacomet golf course with driving access and parking past the golf course at Miacomet beach. It is entirely accessible to all sorts of wonderful recreation activities, services and amenities.Our house serves as a peaceful respite, and also as a great jumping off point for all island activities!

What makes this property unique

Our house is in a beautiful and pristine neighborhood. It is open and airy but can be made cozy and warm when you want it to be. The deck provides privacy and comfort for leisurely dining and relaxing. Recent patio has just added a fire pit. Large yard provides ample space for outside activities. The home is in such a great location for easy access to all the island has to offer, whether by walking, biking, driving or by using the public transportation just steps away from home. You are welcome to use beach chairs, and beach umbrella on your beach excursions.
