This Romantic Cottage is Simply a Cut Above -

This cottage is truly for the discriminating vacationer, very romantic and beautifully appointed. As you walk in you will notice a mosaic inlaid with flip flops... so inviting. The open floor plan feels spacious with volume ceilings throughout and is oh so comfortable. The living room has two leather couches that are right in front of the gas fireplace...bring on the ambiance! The living room also features a large flat screen TV with both HDTV and Firestick service. The kitchen is well appointed with a lot of counter space that won't disappoint anyone who loves to cook. We have both a Weber charcoal grill and a Weber gas grill for our guests to use. We have also tucked in a full size washer and dryer. The bedroom suite is very spacious with a cathedral ceiling and has a very comfortable king size bed, 2 night tables, 2 dressers, a flat screen TV, and a large walk-in closet. The full bath is to die for with a whirlpool and both indoor and outdoor showers. This home is quality built with upgraded textures including oak floors, tumble marble, & limestone accents. Unlike many Vineyard rentals, we have added central air and a garage (for those who may bring their convertible, or motorcycle). The garage also provides a great covered spot for your bicycles which we strongly encourage you to bring as we are located just off the bike path. Two people maximum, no pets, & non-smokers only, as we try to keep this property super clean and allergen free. Beach chairs, beach umbrella, beach blanket and many more conveniences are included. Perfectly located approximately 1 mile from town (Edgartown) & 1 mile to South Beach, right off the bike path. Relax on the front porch in a pair of Adirondack chairs or flex your muscles at our private basketball court which doubles as a pickleball court. Positively immaculate. We never rent our main house so my family is in tune with your enjoyment of the property. Once you rent this gem it will be hard to go anywhere else!

Ambience, privacy, and convenience
This property is perfect for a couple seeking to relax in a quiet, refined property near Edgartown and South Beach. The cottage is clean, well-equipped, and carefully maintained. The kitchen/living room, bedroom, and bathroom are all quite spacious. The large bathroom featured double sinks, an indoor and outdoor shower, a jetted spa tub, and a private water closet. Plus, the owner was extremely communicative, helpful, and clearly interested in ensuring the comfort of her guests. While we did not take advantage of several amenities offered at the property, others may enjoy the pickleball court with basketball hoop, garage, outdoor grills, and outdoor table and chairs. The only aspect of the layout of the cottage that may make it less than ideal for some guests is that it is not the most convenient for entertaining: there is no indoor dining table (one must eat at a kitchen counter while sitting on a stool) and guests must go through the bedroom to use the bathroom. This was the our first visit to MV, but we'll be back. And when we return, we'll have no need to search for other accommodations as this cottage was perfect for us.

Beautiful cottage with everything you could ask for!
Karen’s cottage was not only meticulous, but beautifully equipped with anything and everything you could possibly ask for! My husband and I celebrated our 40th anniversary in the Vineyard, and the cottage made it extra special! Its location was minutes away from the beach, shopping and the quaint harbor area, and getting around was a breeze. Every detail was thought out, and Karen was a pleasure to deal with! I wish we were still there! Highly recommend this beautiful cottage!

Our 1st VRBO Stay, and Def Not the Last!
This guest house is a beautiful home right off of a secluded dirt road. The property is extremely comfortable, and it felt like home away from home. Karen was a great host that was very thorough with ensuring all went well. The pickleball court and basketball goal were huge advantages! Every room is fully stocked with anything you need. Will def return in the future!!

Wonderful little cottage for two
While the weather could have been better for our early October week on the island, the cottage was perfect for us as a home base to explore the island as well as settle down for the night. Gas fireplace is wonderful for a chilly evening and everything is set-up to relax and enjoy your time there. We cooked in a few nights and everything we needed we had. Cottage was in perfect working order and ultra clean and area was very quiet and conveniently located. Highly recommend!

Great Guest House in Katama area
Had a wonderful time on Martha’s Vineyard. This guest house was great, clean, well-equipped and the host, Karen, was responsive and I enjoyed my stay while on the island. It is a great rental for one or two guests maximum in the Katama area near South Beach, close to Edgartown and Morning Glory Far. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of renting this guest house. I will definitely rent it again.

What a wonderful cottage! Communication was fast and easy from booking through checkout. The high ceilings in every room ensured a spacious and yet cozy feel. It was well appointed, with everything we needed for our stay. We loved reading in front of the fireplace. The soaking tub with jets was wonderful at the end of the day. We would return in a heartbeat!

Karen was welcoming and flexible with our check in. The cottage is as described. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook in. If dining in note that you will eat at the island as there is no separate table.

Cottage was very cozy and clean - and most importantly had a well stocked kitchen to allow for meal preparation. Grounds are very well kept and the location is perfect to get to both South Beach and the center of Edgartown. Karen was great in allowing us to check-in early on arrival day and the end-to-end process was seamless!

Perfect for Two
Karen's guest cottage was the perfect respite for my husband and I for a week in early October. The cottage was super clean, comfortable and a great location; quick and easy into the towns, beaches and up-island. Karen was so welcoming and easy to work with, and we loved the pickle ball court (new addition!). Strongly recommend!

Perfect in Every Way
We found this property after learning that the property we had been renting for 2 weeks over the past several years would not be available for our late-September visit. What a find! Perfect for 2 people, the spacious, beautifully furnished rooms and luxurious bathroom rivaled some of the luxury hotels we’ve stayed at in major cities. Add the bonus of outdoor shower, central A/C, location to beautiful beaches and a property manager/owner who is readily available and responsive to questions, and it’s clear that we didn’t want to leave at the end of our week. Luckily, we have already booked a 2-week stay for next summer, so it was easier to leave knowing we’ll be back! Thanks Karen!

Perfect Vineyard Couples Retreat
My wife and I booked this home in Katama for a celebration of her retirement. The house sits in the rear of a very large lot on which the owner’s larger family size house sits. The property boasts a beautiful lawn and a blacktop out back with a small basketball court. The house also has a garage which was helpful both for storing bikes during our stay and loading up the car when we left. The home itself is gorgeous. There is a large sunny bedroom with a king size bed and an adjoining master bath with a shower, jacuzzi tub and separate water closet. The walk-in closet is large as well. Linens (sheets and towels) are provided. The main living area has two very comfortable love seats (despite being love seats we could each lie down while watching TV). The TV has both cable and services like Netflix and Amazon. The living area adjoins the kitchen which has a four stools and a counter top eating area. There’s also a new electric range, microwave, dishwasher and fridge with ice maker. Everything was spotless when we arrived. Karen, the owner, was incredibly helpful both prior to and during our stay, providing “local knowledge” about some services we needed when we arrived on the Vineyard. The location was also perfect - just close enough to Edgartown downtown and to the beach. Bottom line, if you are a romantic couple (younger or older), this place was perfect - clean, well equipped, cared for, spacious, sunny, well-located and well appointed. We are looking forward to returning.

Beautiful cottage in the heart of Martha's Vineyard!!
My girlfriend and I absolutely loved this cottage. It is a beautiful property located on a quiet road. You have quick access to Main ST in Edgartown, but without all the traffic nearby. The owner, Karen, communicated very well with us to make sure we had a fun and memorable stay. The property was very clean and well organized. Central air and the attached garage were bonuses! I will definitely return during my next stay on the Vineyard! Thank you Karen!!
