Peaceful, restful ,charming
Wonderful, rain or shine. Lovely places to sit, read, work, inside and out. The house seems lovingly lived in with comfortable beds, clean, modernized baths, interesting art; the yard stretches out, bounded by stone walls with a field beyond and beautiful sunsets. The owner is helpful and responsive.
Within a few miles are nature preserves for hiking and swimming, and lovely beaches.
A great vacation!

Little Bit of Heaven
I've been coming to the Vineyard since the 1980's. This home set on acres of wild berries and nature was an ideal spot to relax, unwind and to tackle many of the books on my Amazon wish list. The house has many historic details and watch deer graze each afternoon sunset from the garden room was a special treat. Short bike ride to Menemsha Beach. Can't wait to go again next year
