Best Location, Best Price

My husband, young son, and I stayed here in late June 2007 for a week. The condo was immaculate and the view from the balcony was terrific. The description of the property is very accurate. It's a snug space, but it fit our needs very well. Our son slept in the bedroom and we took the sofabed. There's even a parking space for your car (which you'll need if you want to visit the rest of the island). It's a 5 minute walk across the park to the ocean and less than that to town. Although it was so close to town, it was still very quiet. (My son took mid-day naps and was in bed by 8 PM and noise was never a problem.) Never having been to Martha's Vineyard before, we were uncertain as to which town to stay in. Several of the travel books did not rate Oak Bluffs very well, but I have to disagree. The restaurants were affordable (unlike Edgartown) - Linda Jean's was great for breakfast - there's a bunch to see within walking distance, and we enjoyed the diversity of people. We felt like we hit the jackpot with this place.
