This is our second year celebrating my wife’s birthday at Summercamp. The room was spacious and very well laid out with great views of the harbor and the ocean. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the room was clean. The staff at Summercamp are all very friendly and helpful, and they left a gift in the room which was a nice touch. We will be back next year!

Hi Domenic,While our hotel was reimagined to reflect the rustic, retro, and nostalgic touches that any former camper (or former child) can embrace, we do understand if some design details were not quite what you were expecting. Thank you for sharing this feedback with us and we hope to welcome you again one day soon. Until next time!

It's the best place to stay on the island. Convenient bus service to Edgartown and Vinyard Haven. Literally walking distance to everything in Oak Bluffs. Remember there's no elevator as this is a historic hotel. We stayed on the 4th floor but really didn't mind going up and down the stairs.

Hello David,Great to have you out on the island and enjoying these final Summer days with us.We do enjoy a great spot on the harbor and the history of welcoming families since 1879! We're glad our mix of old and new was a good fit for your stay.Please make plans to return so we can offer the next warm welcome.So long for now.
