Further details for this vacation farmhouse rental in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts

Perfect for two young fanilies.: The set up of our home has worked well in the past 4 seasons for two families with young children (totaling of 5 children) who are comfortable and interested in sharing their vacation together. The play areas and yard areas offer great spaces for the young ones to play while the parents can relax on the front porch or back deck. The yard is large and well maintained and well off any busy roads - great for a wiffle ball game or a BBQ. And you can split the cost!

Other Activities: fishing, indoor swim club, ice skating, skate park

Best Kept Secret on the Island

TheBoones Maryland
Review Submitted: September 16, 2007 Date of Stay: August 2007
This was a lovely home in which to spend our family vacation. Although we have spent several summers at the Vineyard, this beautifully appointed home provided the perfect environment for three generations to relax, renew and reconnect. The attention to detail contributed to our enjoyment. One generation enjoyed the bikes while another preferred the hammock on the porch.
This home is the best kept secret on the island!

Dream Vacation House!

NY2NC North Carolina
Review Submitted: July 7, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
The picture and description of this house really don't do it justice! It is all of the above and more! The home is truly within walking distance of the ferry dock, and all the major attractions in Oak Bluffs including the Flying Horses carousel, the beach, and a number of wonderful restaurants. Traveling with a teenager and a preschooler, there was indeed something for everyone. We took a number of day trips to various parts of the island--everything from lighthouses to an alpaca farm to glass blowing to chocolate making are just minutes away. It was our first ever two-week vacation and we wish we had more time! It was truly a dream vacation home and a dream come true for us! We look forward to returning in the future.

Invite the whole family, I did!

Review Submitted: September 12, 2007 Date of Stay: June 2007
We have taken vacations as a family for a number of years - even as the family has grown. We choose the area carefully considering location, price, amenities and ambience since we have to satisfy 6 adults and 4 children.
We were a little hesitant at first on this property because it seemed "out of the way". Immediately upon arrival, we knew it was the right location. It is far enough away from downtown so the traffic is not a bother yet it is a very short walk to town and within walking distance to the beaches.
From the first minute, John and Sue's house felt like our own. As a family we sometimes split up during the day to do our own thing and come back together many times at night for the evening meal. We grilled, cooked inside and even had take out, just like home only in a much nicer setting.
The house comfortably accommodated 10 people including a 6 month old and all had privacy. The caretaker for the property is next door and checked in a few times during the time we were there to make sure everything was OK. He even supplied a lobster pot for one of our more adventurous cooking events.
This location is now in our top 5 and we plan on returning in the near future.

Ultimate Vacaction Home

JGriffinFitzMurphy Boston, MA
Review Submitted: August 10, 2007 Date of Stay: July 2007
Our family has been rented on the Island for the past 10 summers and this home is by far the BEST! The descriptions are beyond accurate. Looking at the pictures does not do this beautiful home justice as we were blown away when we saw it in person.
The home is in a great location, quiet and perfect for getting away, but close enough to walk the kids to the Carousel and Mad Martha's every night. We have not stopped talking about how much fun we had and our annual 1 week trip is now 2 weeks. Enjoy!

Review Submitted: October 10, 2006 Date of Stay: August 2006
Wonderful house. Clean, new, and kid friendly in a serene location a short walk from town. Owners were responsive, helpful, and friendly, and there is a caretaker living right next door. By far, the best experience we've had yet renting on the Vineyard.
