Lambert's Cove--Walk to Beach & 2 Fresh Water Swimming Ponds

My family and I really enjoyed our stay! This home is tucked in a quiet and lovely neighborhood. It is 15 mins from Oak Bluffs, 30 minutes from Edgartown, 17 mins from Menemsha and within walking distance to beautiful lakes and Lambert’s Cove. The home boasted a welcoming vibe and was equipped with WiFi, cooking utensils and plenty outdoor space for relaxing early mornings. I would love the opportunity to stay again.

We very much enjoyed our stay in this spacious home with wonderful access to the Pond and to Lambert's Cove. The porch and patio are especially delightful for enjoying dinners made from the terrific Vineyard farm produce. This is our third time staying here, and we hope to return each year.

Perfect

We ultimately enjoyed our stay. The house is in a wonderful location; close to the beach, close to town, yet very quiet. The house itself was a good size for our family of 6 . Two queen beds, a room with two twins, and one room with a full bed and two twins, worked out well. Closets in 3 out of the 4 rooms, (but some closets had no hangers.) Plenty of linens, which was nice. Great outdoor space; big deck with tables and chairs perfect for morning hangouts and meals. Good outdoor shower. Kitchen stocked with everything one would need. (and more) AC worked pretty well, considering how humid and hot it was outside. The snafus were kind of big, though. The owner neglected to let us know that half of the upstairs had no electricity! Had I checked the recent reviews before our arrival I would have known (but who checks reviews right before their arrival?) We had no light at night or power to charge phones in the room. We did eventually run an extension cord from a different room so we could use a fan and one of the lights. Ultimately, it was not that big a deal - but I was surprised that the owner did not let us know in advance (and that I had to be the one to reach out only to find out this kind-of-big thing about the house.) I am hopeful that it will be fixed and won't be a problem for other renters in the future. But it was weird. The other thing to note was that the house was really dirty when we arrived. Obviously, the cleaners did not do their job - another issue that hopefully will be resolved for future renters. We had to do a deep clean on both bathrooms (hairs on the sink and floor, bugs, the whole bit), the entire kitchen (including all pots/pans, dust and grime in the drawers and on counters)and sweep all the floors (very sandy) before we could really settle in and use the house. Again, not the biggest deal, but not what you want when you come into a rental on your vacation! All in all, if those two things were rectified, I would rent the house again - mainly for the location - hoping that the owner will be forthcoming next time about any issues that might affect renters.
