Katama Vacation Rental cottage

We wish we were all still on the Vineyard at Deacon Vincent cottage! My two adult sons, daughter, daughter-in-law, 4 month old baby, Henry, and my husband and I enjoyed a wonderful family vaction there September 7 through the 14th. The cottage is well located, charmingly decorated, very clean, and everything you need for a beachy vacation is there including beach towels and chairs. The open layout of the kitchen, dining and living area worked perfectly for us. We could all be together without being on top of one another. And we were also able to find respite from "togetherness" in the private spaces. Most of us used the outdoor shower exclusively and wouldn't rent a house without one. Because of the baby, we ate in almost every night and enjoyed some truly decadent meals prepared by my two sons who are great cooks. I worked along side them and though the kitchen is compact it is efficient and easy to work in. Everything we needed was there including sharp knives (very unusual in a rental as you may know)! Weather permitting, cocktails and dinner on the deck was the best and we were pleasantly surprised at the absence of mosquitoes. Henry and I (Grandma) spent many soothing hours in the front porch swing. Be sure to locate the welcome binder when you first arrive. Jill (the owner) has provided lots of great information and recommendations for food, shopping, activities, etc. all over the island. She was really great to work with. Though our weather was "mixed" we fit in golf, tennis (both at Farm Neck), charter fishing, biking, beach time and a family portrait taken at South Beach with a local photographer. Can't wait to see the proofs. Thankyou, again Jill, for renting to us. We look forward to returning another time.
