Our family had a wonderful time staying in this historic home. The owners and their son, Michael, were so accommodating and responsive throughout the entire stay. The home was immaculate and fully stocked with everything we needed for preparing meals at home. The history of this centuries old home was so interesting and made the stay more charming. It's really a 5 star stay, however, renters should know this is a very old (200yrs!) home with not many modern cosmetic upgrades. The home has AC in all the rooms upstairs and one unit downstairs - all worked perfectly well. However, the bathrooms and kitchen, (while function perfectly well) could use a make-over. I think cosmetic make-overs in the kitchen and bathrooms wouldn't detract from the historic charm. For elderly guests or guests with limited mobility, the clawfoot tubs would be difficult to navigate. There is only one shower inside the house, located downstairs. There is a basic walk-in shower located in the laundry shed, but it definitely feels like showering in a shed. The house is also located on a very busy road with tight parking for two vehicles - it was tricky pulling in/out, but we eventually got the hang of it.All in all, this is a great, historic home in a good location, supplied with everything you need for a fun family Vineyard stay. Perfectly immaculate and again, the owners were wonderful to engage with. Great home, just know it's simple in appointments and amenities, but fully functional.

We thoroughly enjoyed our girls’ trip! The home was spotless, comfortable, and conveniently located along the bus route, making it easy to get around. We especially loved relaxing on the beautiful wraparound porch, where we spent a lot of our time. We did have a minor issue with one of the air conditioning units, but the hosts responded quickly and resolved it promptly. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would happily recommend this home to others.

Great location. Just a few minutes drive to Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven. Really enjoyed the porch and large yard. Rooms were very clean, albeit buggy, which is probably unavoidable in an older home. We would definitely stay here again!

This was the perfect home for my family! This spacious 5 bedroom allowed for my entire family to be comfortable. The window AC’s are a must on the Vineyard during this time of year, and something we were grateful to have in all of the upstairs bedrooms. The kitchen had every thing I needed and it allowed me to prepare home cook meals, as if I were in my own kitchen. We so enjoyed the wraparound porch. The seating area was perfect for sleeping, reading or any kind of lazy beach socialization. Breakfast, lunch and dinners we served on the outside round dining table! My favorite - the outside shower! There is nothing better than taking a warm shower under the stars. We took advantage of every outdoor amenity this beautiful beach home had to offer!The property is located at a busy intersection, across the street from the MV hospital, so the traffic and siren noise can be challenging, but we quickly got used to it. So many other positives to this VRBO home outweigh this minor distraction.The Bowers have created a well appointed beach home - we plan to stay here in the future! A gem on a gem of an island!.
