Comfy and Convenient to Charming Edgartown and Beaches

We have stayed in this comfy cottage for three summers and would highly recommend it. Here's why: First, it is very clean and comfortable. There are cozy couches for resting after a swim or snuggling on a rainy day. There is plenty of room for our crowd. The bathrooms are pretty and clean and there's a fabulous outdoor shower! The fenced in yard has plenty of room for kids to play. The street is nice and quiet - but very well located.

From this cozy haven, we can walk to downtown Edgartown or hop on a bus to scoot over to another town without worrying about the traffic or parking. It is a short bike ride to State Beach - even Oak Bluffs isn't bad. Chappy Ferry is practically around the corner.

We often take the short walk downtown to fish off the dock, or have an amazing breakfast at Among the Flowers. The Newes From America is a very quaint pub with decent food. The movie theater has several good movies each week. We have even taken advantage of the local clubs and walked home after a long night.

You can't beat Edgartown for prettyness. Walking or riding the narrow streets gives you a good chance to admire the beautiful old houses and their enchanting gardens. We often wander over to enjoy the view of the East Chop Lighthouse while we sip a great coffee from Backdoor Donuts right in the heart of downtown. So beautiful!

We make it a point every year to go to Menemsha for the rocks at the beach, and the fantastic seafood. They have the freshest lobsters - succulant! and the best fried clams on the East Coast - I promise! And since we're on food, there is a little secret. At the corner of the street is a tiny store/gas station. Early in the morning, or on the way home from the beach we stop there and grab a quick meal to go. Their food is astonishingly tasty Brazilian cuisine. Who knew?!

As winter is setting in, and I'm thinking back to summer - I can't wait for July and our return to "our" summer cottage!
