The location of this property is pristine. You could not ask for any beter location.

A short walk and you will be in Lobsterville beach, which to me is a beautiful island. If you are a fishing person a short drive and you go to fishing spots on this aprt of the island. Also driving distance is the Chullmark Store has very good products if you need somethign quick. And Menemsha ( fishing port) is about 15 to 20 minues away! I could not ask for any better location. The house is rustic , the location is pristine so make sure you bring impprtant items hat you think you may need.

Classic Vineyard beach house in a lovely up island location

Our stay was everything we expected, and we had a great time. The house has a few quirks, but it was charming and ideal for our family with grown children. The location was quiet and private, we saw deer and bunnies in the yard and really enjoyed being off the beaten path. The beds and living room furniture were very comfortable, the AC and wifi worked great and there was plenty of hot water. There were a few things in and around the house that need maintenance, plus the yard has overgrown quite a bit. It would be a hard place to stay if you had very small children or older people, but it was perfect for us. We gave it 5 stars despite the things that need repair because they weren't an issue for our family, and we truly enjoyed the house and the location. This is a great place if you are looking to get away and have a nice quiet vacation in a beautiful spot on the island.

We really enjoyed our stay in this vintage vacation gem. Tucked away in the woods, this little house is both comfortable and accommodating. After a day exploring the island, our family enjoyed gathering around the rustic dining table for an evening meal surrounded by books and soft lamplight. The large living room with roomy sofas was a great spot to watch movies and eat popcorn; especially during some heavy rainstorms that hammered the island during our visit.When the sun was out, the back deck was a great place to soak up some rays. And a beach is a walk (or short drive) away. Definitely visit the nearby highly rated Orange Peel Bakery for the best cakes and scones you will ever taste. Also in close range, the lighthouse has a parade of gift stores, ice cream, lobster rolls and coffee places to grab a quick bite. We had a great time on the island and this little house was a big part of it. If you’re expecting sleek and modern finishes, this property may not be for you. But if you’re happy to step back in time to old school Vineyard vibes, then your wallet will thank you.

Not worth it

The living room was moldy, the door doesn’t lock, the insects were in every room; including the bed, the kitchen tools were rusty, the floors were dirty, the place is a mess. The post states a gas grill; there’s only a charcoal grill without any charcoal, the post states resident beach parking pass; there was none, the post states a queen size bed; there wasn’t one. The kitchen floor was completely stripped of tile. Overall the house was dirty and a complete waste of money. The only nice thing about the house was the new AC units, which I assume I just paid for by renting the house for a week. Don’t waste your money.

Not up to VRBO standards

We were shocked when we arrived at this property. The word "rustic" should be added to its description. The front door to the property is a sliding glass does that does not from the outside. When we walked through the house upon arriving, we walked through spiderwebs on the inside of the house, the smell of mildew was overwhelming, most of the windows had been screwed closed with no way to open them, there were rodent traps in every room, the mini splits (AC units) worked extremely well, the linens and towels were clean, the dishes were not clean, most of the light bulbs were burned out (some rooms didn't have a light source), the porch on the front and side of the house were overgrown with weeds and poison ivy, the front stairs are rotted and pulling away from the house, the main bathroom floor has significant water damage and is soft to walk on, the second floor smoke detector is missing...the list goes on and on. The location was perfect and it would take just a little TLC to make this house VRBO quality.
