Great location in beautiful quirky old house. We could easily walk everywhere and we were comfortable outside, on the porch and in the living room. 2 of the bedrooms best for kids and be prepared for walk-thru bathroom. 6 “Seniors” had fun.

Absolutely Unforgettable. Love it here!!!From the moment we stepped onto the wraparound porch of this charming Oak Bluffs retreat, we knew our Martha’s Vineyard vacation would be something special. This beautifully maintained Victorian cottage perfectly captures the whimsical spirit that makes Oak Bluffs the crown jewel of the island.The House: Character Meets ComfortThe property seamlessly blends historic charm with modern amenities. Original hardwood floors gleam throughout, while updated fixtures and appliances ensure every convenience. The kitchen is a dream for morning coffee preparation and evening meal planning, with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances that make cooking a pleasure rather than a chore.Each bedroom feels like a private sanctuary, with comfortable beds dressed in crisp linens and charming period details that transport you back to Martha’s Vineyard’s golden age. The master suite’s en-suite bathroom features a clawfoot tub perfect for soaking after long beach days.Can’t wait to come back. Great memories made in Oak Bluffs!
