Other restaurants (expensive): Topper's at the Wauwinet, The Chanticleer. For good take-out inexpensive seafood for the entire family (or dine on the deck), Sayle's Fresh or Cooked Seafood. There are new ethnic restaurants that have currently opened such as El Rincon Salvadoreno on Old South Road. Also The Harbor Wok at the Jared Coffin House on Broad Street, Center of Town.

Golf in the Area: The Miacomet Golf Course, located at 12 West Macomet Road, is right up the street off of Hummock Pond Road. The Miacomet Golf Course is Nantucket's only 18 hole public golf course. There is a lovely restaurant on site, and also a driving range.

About Rosemary Campobasso

I have been renting on Nantucket since the late seventies. I wanted to buy my own little cottage at some point. When I saw the Sweet Briar for sale I knew that the Sweet Briar was the right one for me. I wanted to share my home with guests so they, too, may enjoy an affortable vacation on Nantucket.

Rosemary Campobasso purchased this cottage in 1998
Why Rosemary Campobasso chose Nantucket Town

I was enchanted by the Sweet Briar when I looked at it and felt that it was time to buy my own cottage on Nantucket.

What makes this cottage unique

It is only one mile and a half from downtown Nantucket and secluded enough in a nice courtyard and views of nature, for privacy. The best of both worlds!
