"This was the perfect place for our 4-night stay in Nantucket! The location was ideal — just about a 10-minute walk to Main Street. The layout worked especially well for two couples, and it was such a nice bonus that they allowed my parents’ dog. The home had everything we needed, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. We would absolutely stay here again!"
