This was a wonderful and luxurious vacation home. The location is ideal, within easy range of both the beach and Edgartown.
The house is modern and extremely well-maintained, with a top of the line pool and outdoor area. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, and the open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area are perfect for entertaining.
We were able to sleep four adult couples as well as five children comfortably, with each family unit having some space for themselves. The house is well-stocked, and made it easy to cook for all of those people, with enough beach chairs and pool toys to keep the kids entertained at the beach and pool.
We have rented from Steve, the owner, several times in the past. He has always gone out of his way to make himself available, and has answered any questions. He even made his netflix account available as part of the tv and entertainment system, which was so well designed, that even my technophobic mother-in-law could work the remote.
Steve's local caretaker is also available 24/7, and very quickly fixed a minor air conditioning issue that we had.
The house is very close to several excellent breakfast places, including the Right Fork Diner, Morning Glory Farms, and the Edgartown General Store. The location feels private, with nice trees shielding you from the surrounding area, but you are still in the middle of one of the nicest parts of the island, within easy biking or driving range of South Beach, Edgartown, and Oak's Bluffs. Although we cooked at home a few nights, we were also able to go out to some of the great, near-by restaurants for several dinners.
In short, I would highly recommend this home. You would be hard-pressed to find a better maintained house on the island, which you can see by the number of repeat renters Steve gets year after year.
