Walk to Town! Bike or Bus to Beach! Charming Cottage- Leeward- on Private Lane
Located on a private lane just a short walk to town and easy access to bike I paths on and beaches, our property is a quintessential Nantucket getaway. Our property consists of two cottages, duplex style, with separate entrances and decks and a large shared yard (see listing #994545 for our other cottage). There is also a separate studio on the property that the owners use occasionally.
Cottage A (Leeward) has two bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and main living room with efficient kitchen and living space. The first bedroom has a full size bed, and the second bedroom has two twin beds. The deck overlooks the large shared, nicely landscaped yard, and with comfortable outdoor furniture and a Weber gas grill. There is also ample off-street parking. Quality linens are included and beach chairs, beach towels and a small cooler are available for your use. Just bring yourself! The cottage is equipped for 4 persons and our occupancy limits are strict.
If traveling with small children, we can help connect you with a local rental company that can provide anything else you might need. We do not maintain bikes for guest use but please ask about local rentals!
Kitchen is efficiently updated with an LG refrigerator, compact stove, microwave and a dishwasher. Everything that you would need for a week's getaway is provided.
The bathroom features marble floors and tile walls with a modern glass shower surround.
Outside you will find a large professionally landscaped yard and a large outside shower. The outside shower features hot water and a dressing area for privacy.
While just a short walk to Main Street for shopping and restaurants along with the harbor area- the cottage is down a secluded lane that is quiet and a great place to relax.
WiFi and a flat screen TV with Cable TV are provided.
There are security cameras located on the end of the Cottage B overlooking the driveway area and on the exterior of Cottage C overlooking the yard immediately in front of that cottage. The cameras are monitored by the hosts. There is a motion-activated light to illuminate the driveway after dark (the light turns on temporarily and then turns off automatically). The walkway is lit by solar-powered landscape lighting and there is an exterior light at the front door. Please let us know if you have any questions about these features.
In July and August, we rent by the week, Friday to Friday. Inquire about a monthly rental at a reduced rate and no lodging tax (rental period must be more than 31 days).
As the rental season is short, we have a strict cancellation policy. We recommend that you consider purchasing travel insurance to mitigate the risk of disruption due to illness (including COVID), transportation issues, etc. We will try to work with you in the case of extreme circumstances but may not be able to in every situation. Thank you for understanding and planning accordingly.

We spent a long weekend in Nantucket. The cottage was in a great location for walking to town and the local market. We enjoyed are stay and would stay again
2 girlfriends and I stayed here in early June and it was perfect! The cottage is so cute, clean and updated, the check-in process was seamless, and the hosts were immediately reachable when needed. Easily walkable to town. It was a great stay and we would all highly recommend!
We just spent a long weekend in this wonderful space near 5 Corners in Nantucket. Immaculate,
comfortable, well-equipped and nicely decorated space. Easy Uber ride into center of town. Would highly recommend!
Cottage was immaculate and decor was so pretty! Well stocked with everything you need. Grounds were beautiful, and had a big deck. Owners were great to deal with. Place is a gem!
We had a lovely time celebrating our 40th birthdays and taking a Mom break at this beautiful property!
Clean and comfortable, we could walk into town easily.
Kendra was a delight to work with, super responsive, and flexible as we arrived earlier than expected.
Such a gem - we will be back for sure!
We stayed here for a wedding weekend and it was perfect. Great location, beautiful and clean cottage. Outdoor shower was a lovely bonus! Communication with the owners was easy and they were flexible to our changing schedule. 10/10 thanks so much!!!
The cottage was exactly as it was advertised. The location is excellent and the garden was beautiful. The hosts were very responsive when we needed them
The place is very well supplied. My only suggestion would be to get new, better quality pillows for the beds.
We highly recommend the cottage! We hope to return
The cottage was perfect, clean and impeccably maintained. Everything we needed was there and everything from the linens to the beach chairs and beach towels were good quality and like new. The yard and gardens were well manicured and even though it was a 3 home property, we had great privacy. Our host was quick to respond to the one question we had during the week! We will stay there again for sure. We loved it!!!!
This property was perfect for a couple. The yard was stunning, and we especially enjoyed the deck and outdoor shower. The cottage itself had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable. We had a car and appreciated having a parking spot for the week! Even with a car, we opted to walk to town a few times each day as the walk was both beautiful and quick. This was our favorite rental we’ve stayed in in Nantucket and would recommend this property to anyone! We would love to stay again.
The cottage was ideal. It is close to town yet tucked away, quiet and private. kendra and Phil are very responsive and accommodating. We will definitely stay here on our next visit.
Perfect spot for our stay! Cottage was clean & had all the things we needed. Could walk to town and the beach for a quick swim. Great communication with the host & would definitely stay again!
Cute, clean, quintessential Nantucket! The area is perfect for a short walk to everything. Very responsive hosts…loved our stay!

Great Columbus Day Weekend Visit!
We stayed in Cottage B for two nights over Columbus Day weekend with our dog and had a great trip. The cottage was clean, comfortable and fully equipped. It's a great location - short walks to everything - and the deck was perfect for sitting outside in the sun. We'd definitely stay here again!
This home was absolutely perfect for our stay. It was close to town, clean and exactly as described, I would actually say it was better in person, the photos didn't do it justice. Kendra and Phil were great to work with and I look forward to staying here again.
House was great and had everything as advertised and the yard was even prettier than the pictures. It was the perfect size for us and our pup and so convenient to town. Would definitely rent from Phil and Kendra again.
We loved the cottage we stayed in. It was very well decorated and clean. Everything you need, from kitchen goods to beach chairs and beach towels. The outdoor shower was great. The deck and outside made the space so inviting.
