We LOVE this house!

Greatness Chicago, IL
Review Submitted: October 13, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This beautiful home not only accommodated my entire family of 4, but also my sister-in-law's family of 4. We have stayed here the past two summers and we all wish we could extend our stay longer than a week. Every need is taken care of, we really feel like we are guests in someone's fabulous home. The sheets are soft, the rooms are comfortable, the kitchen is stocked, the shampoos and soaps are nice, the deck is lovely, the pond is peaceful, and most importantly- it is TOTALLY quiet and secluded. The beaches are very close and lovely. There is a book full of information about great things to do on the island, including sailing on a beautiful wooden sail boat! Fun was had by all. I very highly recommend this house.

away from it all

vineyardfan albany, ca
Review Submitted: July 1, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
This is a wonderful, warm, house in an idyllic setting. All the bedrooms were lovely, all needs were provided for. It was delightfully close to Lobsterville Beach, which is gorgeous, uncrowded, and good for kids, with a sunset view. This part of the island is quiet and uncrowded and totally relaxing, though far from "towns". Bikes are great to have here, as taking the bike ferry to Menemsha was a fun advernture for the whole family (delicious lobster rolls at sunset!).
I highly recommend this house to anyone who wants to be away from it all.
