One of my favorite views on the island. You'll enjoy a lovely deck to watch sunsets, big dining table to enjoy meals, and lots of walk-able trails right out your front door.

Jewel on the Cape
Hidden jewel in Martha’s Vineyard. View from back deck awesome! Beach is down the road a short walk or bike ride. House was comfortable and the water pressure for showers great! Would definitely consider renting again. We arrived at night and didn’t know the second bedroom had two steps down and fell. Would suggest a light of some kind for safety.

Hello, Cynthia! Thank you for the review. We appreciate you bringing the issues with the steps to our attention. We have notified the local team to further address this. We apologize for overlooking this, and appreciate the opportunity to resolve this matter for our future guests. We are glad to hear that overall your trip was enjoyable. Thank you for staying with us!
Challenging to get the lockbox to work. Found out there are two of them. They were quick to help but confusing none the less. The drive back is quite long and bumpy/muddy/dusty but we have stayed at enough places on the island to know what to expect. Could use some updating but it would expectedly be at the cost per night. We were very happy with the place. We did not use the kitchen but it seemed to be an eclectic collection of things one might need to cook or serve. We left the slider open in the bedroom. Woke up to the Osprey announcing they were awake. Very pleasant place and experience overall. Highly recommend taking the road to the end. A quiet life guarded beach with very few occupants. We watched the sunset there one night. Perfection! The house across the bay is Chip Chop and was owned by Diane Sawyer. Worth looking it up online. Final thought. We were told a 90 year old lady owns the place. It makes sense once you see it.

Vineyard Haven Cabin
We stayed at the Sunset cabin for 5 days as an extension of our usual vacation in MV. The space served our needs, 2 bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen for my husband, myself and our children. View off the patio was gorgeous at sunset. The drive into the property took a little getting used to (one lane dirt road with two-way traffic at times) but we enjoyed our stay overall.

Filthy Old Summer Cottage
Rundown, roaches, 3.3 miles to ferry (not 1 mile as claimed) with water access only if you are willing to tromp through 4-foot deep mud. No AC in master bedroom. Cheap mattresses. Isolated down long dirt road with no amenities in house. No grill or outdoor furniture. Too filthy to even cook in the kitchen. Pretty sure this is one of Dante’s circles of hell.
I felt the description did not accurately portray this rental. The road to the house was filled with potholes that required a very slow trek. If your plans are to go off property, I wouldn’t recommend this place. We didn’t spend one night after getting there and walking through. Would be difficult at best in the evening.
