My family and I spent a week at the this home and it was an amazing experience. The layout was open and seems much larger than expected. It's walking distance to circuit Avenue and walking distance to a really nice park the kids could play at. The house was furnished with everything you needed, and any concerns we had were addressed quickly and completely.

Lovely house

We were 3 couples in town for a wedding and this place was perfect for us. We had plenty of space and it was very clean, well stocked for cooking and has a lovely, cosy island feel to it. We didn’t get to explore much but we did have a little walk around the great neighbourhood and it was only a short walk to the beach. We would definitely come back for a longer time next time

Lovely stay!

We have been coming to the island every year since I was a kid and have been staying in OB at the same house for over 10. This was the first year in a long time we stayed somewhere new and this was a great find! Quiet location with easy, walkable access to downtown, inkwell beach, and niantic park for the little ones. Everything was clean, kitchen and linens fully stocked. Bikes and beach toys available as well! Separate cottage was great for my parents who could get some rest since my little ones were up very very early! Property manager was very communicative, reaching out upon check in to make sure everything was okay. We needed to replace a light bulb and asked for a drying rack which was supplied the next day. He was also very communicative upon check out and understanding! Overall, a great experience and definitely would recommend for families with young children.

Lovely house, but stay marred by mice

Delightful house; great location. Unfortunately, our visit was marred by 3 mouse sightings over 2 days. Owner was responsive and personally came out to place multiple mouse traps in the home. Initially, my wife was quite uncomfortable staying there and annoyed we had to deal with mice on our luxurious vacation. When she expressed this to the owner, he called her "condescending." That was poor customer service on his part. It seemed he didn't understand the magnitude of the situation and felt she was overreacting. Owner attempted to find us another place to stay, but the houses were smaller, not nearly as nice and most were up-island. Given that 2 days of our stay were marred by the observance of mice and we felt an overall discomfort throughout the week knowing we were staying in a home that had a mouse infestation, and we had to be repeatedly interrupted by visits throughout the week from the caretaker and owner, we requested a refund for 2 nights; however, the owner refused, ultimately agreeing to refund just 1 night.

My Annual Retreat

I’ve been enjoying David’s home on the island for years -– it is my go-to second home. Very comfortable sleeping arrangements; the master bedroom has a porch, perfect for a quiet early morning coffee. The house is an ideal size for me and friends, has a well-equipped kitchen for our favorite home-cooked meals, and a ready-to-fire-up gas grill on the back deck, which has a large patio umbrella table, great for a family cookout. The yard is large enough to kick around a soccer ball; or the kids (and dogs) can get their energies out in the park right next to the house. Also, the outdoor shower is roomy and private. The house is situated in a quiet residential neighborhood, yet close enough to all the attractions in downtown Oak Bluffs, such as the Gingerbread Cottages, The Game Room and Flying Horses Carousel. A simple 5-7 minute walk, don’t bother driving to town! Inkwell and State beaches are a 5 minute drive. If you don’t feel like cooking, walk to Circuit Ave for an amazing variety of restaurant options. Smok N Bones BBQ ribs is a block away, as well as Tony’s Market for sundries, sandwiches and wine. David is an extremely gracious, attentive and conscientious host. Always a phone call or text away. 14 Shawmut Ave is my home away from home. I book my favorite 3 weeks a year in advance!

David was a great host. We had a question and he responded to the text within minutes. Even better he came by to make sure we were good. He took the time to talk with the family and gave us some directions and recommendations for places to eat. Property was perfect for our family. The girls stayed in the bunk house and the rest of the family stayed in the main house. Plenty of space to relax inside or outside on the porch. Weather was a nice change from the Texas heat and we spent a lot of time on the porch playing cards and sharing memories. Most of the back yard is shaded and the breezes were nice. We didn't bring our car over to the island, but if you chose to do so there is room to park it off street. Highly recommend the property and thanks to David for his hospitality.
