A wonderful cottage with everything you could ever need. Every time we pulled into the driveway we were struck by the incredible view! It’s small but the outdoor decks on three sides, open to the living room makes it feel larger and quite airy. Loved it here!

Beautiful spot with amazing views and an easy walk into Menemsha. The host offered a lot of helpful information and had everything we needed (beach towels and chairs, kitchen equipment, comfortable beds, coffee maker & more). We loved visiting farmers markets, taking our dog to Lucy Vincent beach, hiking Menemsha Hills, and the scenic drive into Edgartown which was only 25 min away. Perfect place to relax.

This darling home is perfect for those who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is quiet, tranquil and has the most beautiful sunsets. We really enjoyed waking up to the birds singing, deer in the backyard and the pretty Menemsha Pond in the distance.Being so close to Larsen's Fish Market was also nice! I would highly recommend this home if you're looking for a quiet retreat.
