Although the house is well located even though itâs at a busy intersection, many things about it disappointed us. It is quite small and we felt it was not comfortable for our group of 6. Itâs better for 4 or if absolutely necessary 5 people. ( the listing says sleeps 8) The couch only seats 5 people and there are no chairs for additional seating! The kitchen has high top stools and the âdining areaâ , which is not air conditioned, has a bench and some built in seating. Very cramped. The main floor 2 bedrooms are small and share a tiny bathroom . The basement bedroom has a private bath, but the additional sleeping space is open to the basement. The attic has steep steps. There are no hooks anywhere to hang wet towels , except maybe one in a closet. Recycling is confusing since there are 2 different set of instructions and the trash cans in the house have no markings to help out. Overall, this was not what we had expected from such a costly rental.
We had a wonderful time at this property! It is well equipped with everything you need for a vacation in Nantucket. The location is wonderful - though on a busy road, you can easily walk to town. Nice private back yard! Working with Giles was easy and he was very responsive. The quality of the items for your use is very good. Great hosts, great property.
The house is will located on the outskirts of town. Easy access to anywhere on the island. While only two full bathrooms inside, the outdoor shower was convenient for hosting a group. Plenty of towels and linens.
The house was quite clean and well set-up on our arrival. Giles was quite easy and quick to communicate with, and responded quickly to minor questions and issues (like burned-out light bulbs - nothing major). Heavy duty washer and dryer were quite useful for a large group. Kitchen had a good supply of utensils and appliances. The house is within easy walking distance of town (< 1 mile). Like most houses of its vintage, we found a shortage of plugs for phones, etc, which we solved by buying an outlet extender. The only concern I had with the house was the stairs to the upper and lower levels; both seemed fairly steep to me and had several feet with no hand rail or wall to grab on to.
This house was great, it's in a central location and we really enjoyed our stay. The home is right on the bike path and was an easy bike/walk into town. The backyard is also great and has everything we needed (table, grill, etc.). We enjoyed sitting outside for dinner. The outdoor shower is also a plus. Giles was very responsive, kind, and helpful throughout our stay. The room in the basement does not have AC, which was a little uncomfortable for us, but we had a great time in this home otherwise. We would still recommend the home.
House was fabulous. Spotlessly clean, had everything we needed. Right on the bike path, easy access to town and beaches!
Cannot not say enough good words for how responsive Giles was, he is a wonderful host!
Canât wait to visit again!
We could not have been more pleased with this lovely house! Our kids (ages 8, 6 & 3) all had a great time in Nantucket as well as at the house. It is roomy, very nicely kept and had all of the amenities you could ask for and more! Would love to rent again during our next stay in Nantucket! Thank you Giles!
This rental has everything you could think of for a home away from home, a number of seating areas ideal for curling up with a book or watching TV/DVD. Outside grill perfect for those after the beach BBQ's, great laundry facilities in the basement and beautiful patio. The bedrooms on different levels gives everyone their own space.
Location is ideal, makes it possible to visit without a car with the bike path and bus stop across the street.
How unique to have the oldest working windmill to look out at.
I loved the breakfast bar in the kitchen, meant we could have hang out while preparing and cooking dinner.
I will definetly be back to savour this gem again
Close to town, clean and well maintained; outside shower, close to bike paths and direct access to the shuttle bus system therefore a car is not necessary allowing easy access all over the island to beaches, local restaurants and grocery.
