Gem in the woods
This cabin is recently renovated and well laid out. When we arrived it was clean and the owner left a nice welcome gift. There is a little beach in walking distance and walking/hiking/biking trails at each end of the road. It very convenient to Edgartown by bike or car and easy to get up island by car or bus. For us, the best feature is that they allow dogs. Ours loved their vacation with walks and swimming every day. They have asked to go back. All paws up from the pups!

Perfect Getaway to Celebrate our Anniversary
The Vineyard Cottage location was perfect for our needs. We had 2 small dogs who liked to walk the many trails in the nearby conservation areas surrounding the pond. The cottage had all the supplies we needed including a dog bed! It was a 5 minute drive to Edgartown and about a 10 minute drive to Oak Bluffs. Also very close to State Beach. Steve was very responsive to any question we had. I would highly recommend the Cottage for anyone looking to enjoy MV in a serene setting.

Comfortable cottage
This property worked well for our family. The owners have put some thought into the renovation and make excellent use of space. We enjoyed the living room and both decks. The kitchen had everything we needed and was very clean. They have a generous supply of towels, plenty of hot water, and mini split air conditioners, which we only needed one day as it was not too hot. We made good use of the nearby walking paths. Very comfortable and convenient yet secluded feeling location.

THE PERFECT GETAWAY
In addition to being set up perfectly for either friends or family, the house is tucked away in a private area of Edgartown. We arrived and found a welcome note and a bottle of wine (great touch!), endless towels, board games, and a dog bed for our furry little friend! The kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were comfortable (they supply a lot of pillows!), and if we needed anything at all, Pete (Property Manager) was always on hand! We will be renting again next year!!

I'm sorry for your bad experience. As we discussed, there was a miscommunication about the cottage being ready from off-season construction. We did promptly refund and compensate the renter.

Good spot
The house worked for our one week visit. The condition of the property is not accurately reflected in the listing. The bedroom was damp. We had a hard time finding the place and couldn't reach the manager. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but will look elsewhere next time.

Google maps often sends people the wrong direction - I will make sure that accurate directions are sent. I asked Bradley about his comment about the "condition of the property," but received no response, so I can't comment on that other than to say that no other renters have commented on the condition of the cottage and we have plenty of return guests every year.

Cozy secluded cottage
Perfect location for our week on Martha's Vineyard celebrating our 50th anniversary - close to beaches, shopping and restaurants, with a quiet place to come back to. We had plenty of room for 3 adults and 2 children - our favorite spot was the screened in porch. We biked to nature trails at both ends of the Boulevard, explored beaches all around the island and visited Mytoi Garden and Polly Hill Arboretum. A week wasn't long enough! Steven was quick to respond when we were planning our trip. Thanks so much for a warm welcome to your lovely cottage.

Terrific cottage for family, in great location
The cottage is a really interesting layout, all one story, and worked well for our family (2 adults, 2 children). Plenty of room to spread out and enjoy time together or a quiet spot for reading. I can imagine that the huge deck and screened porch would be perfect places to hang out in sunnier weather. We were on the Vineyard for a friend's wedding and some of the other children hung out with us for part of the day, and they loved roaming around and exploring the wooded areas around the cottage. It's safe, secluded, no traffic to worry about. We followed the directions in the guest guidelines and walked down to the end of the road for beach access to the pond, which was gorgeous. Even in the wind and rain, the whole island is beautiful and lovely to explore. This cottage is in a nice location because Edgartown and Vineyard Haven are both easy to get to. Steven was very communicative. We received all the information we needed well in advance, and the "guest guidelines" document was thorough and helpful. This is a wonderful rental and we'd recommend it highly!

A perfect cottage for a family getaway
My family spent a nice weekend at this cottage when we were at Martha's Vineyard for a wedding. Although the weather wasn't great, the house is so cozy and is furnished with all the amenities we would ever use. We did not have a great deal of free time but we did find time to walk along some of the surrounding trails. We would definitely go there again to enjoy the house and the restaurants and activities that the Schulmans recommended.

Perfect Timing Perfect Weather!
The stay was perfect and quite comfortable as well. The location is nice and quiet but close enough to everything. The beds were very comfortable and it was easy to do everything. I cannot thank the Steve enough. He answered all my questions and was available if anything came up. I hope to stay here again this or next summer! I highly recommend this place to families and large groups.

Secluded cottage Between Edgartown and Vineyard Haven
Four college gals had our annual reunion in Martha's Vineyard. The rental is actually on The Boulevard near 9th street. Nicely tucked in among the trees, very quiet. The beds were comfortable. The wine upon arrival was a nice touch. The enclosed patio was a fun place to lounge. The owner was responsive. Suggestion....bring shower soap, nice towels and washcloths. Ate at Chesca's for our big night out. Art Cliff diner had the best pancakes layered with pears and nuts. Only had a 20 minute wait. We could not find the access to the pond but we were busy enough. Chappaquidick tour to lighthouse was worth it. Handicapped beware, stairs up to the rental.

Cute house - perfect for our family with young kids!
This house was perfect for our short getaway to the Vineyard with our two preschool age children. The house had the perfect amount of space for us, a nice family room with a wifi TV, comfy couches, a well appointed kitchen (note to anyone staying there, don't buy coffee filters, there are about 300 in the drawer next to the stove!), comfortable beds, and two big bathrooms. All the space we needed. It was in a great location close to Edgartown (our favorite town). And was a nice easy walk to a little beach on the pond. My only feedback would be the towels could use a little re-fresh. Everything was very clean, just many of the towels were frayed or had bleach stains. But really we had a great time and hope we are able to come back in the future!

Fantastic cottage and location!
The cottage was the perfect place to stay- great accommodations, ideal locating for exploring the island and a great set up for traveling with our 8 month old. The walking trails nearby were great for morning walks and we loved having the space to spread out instead of a hotel or b&b room. Great stay, we can't wait to return next year!!
