About this property

Cottage in Prime ~In-Town~ Location

The house has central air conditioning and off street parking for one vehicle. In the summer season we are a Sunday to Sunday rental.

Fabulous Nantucket Cottage

This cottage was everything we were looking for and more. The location in town is exceptional. It is clean, and well stocked. It was a great getaway for 2 couples. The Private outdoor area surrounded By privet hedges with table and chairs for 4 (oh a a grill) was great for al fresco dining. We hiked, fished, beached and of course enjoyed the great food and shopping. This cottage is fabulous! Highly recommend.

Great house!

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely house. The owners were very responsive and attentive. Fantastic location close to town and great beaches. The house is very well kept and clean. The house layout is lovey and worked really well for our family. Both bedrooms were great. We enjoyed our stay and would look forward to another visit!

Still dreaming about our week in Nantucket!!

We have visited Nantucket for years, but this was the first time staying in town. House is in a great location and just a short walk to Main Street and a street over from the Cisco bike path. The owners went above and beyond to make sure the house was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need Durring your stay. House was clean like a hotel but had the comforts of home, We can’t wait to return next year!!

Wonderful home away from home

We had a fantastic time on Nantucket staying in your lovely house. It was perfect for our family of 4. Our 2 teens loved the upstairs bedroom and having that space to themselves. It was comfortable and had everything we needed. The location is great in order to walk to town, and convenient to the bike paths.

Wonderful !!!

Your home was perfect, and it was such a pleasure to meet you both and have a tour of the main house. We will be visiting again next year for April vacation week, and will likely be in touch with you. Very clean, all the comforts of home, and an easy stroll to down town. Have a wonderful summer!

A wonderful Nantucket stay @ 8 Gardner St

This unique property is perfect for a small family or group. It has a fascinating history which makes one feel part of the old island. The home itself is in pristine condition, has a most convenient location, is provided with every amenity a vacationer might want or need. I hope I can return next year, Claudia Curado

Renters for one week

The property was very clean and well maintained. It was perfect for two couples, we each had a room and bathroom on a separate floor and the kitchen was updated and well stocked. We loved having a small patio to sit on in the backyard and we were only about 5 minutes from town with all the restaurants and shopping! We walked everywhere and rode bikes to the beaches. The house was air conditioned and very comfortable to sleep in. It was far enough from town to avoid a lot of noise but close enough to all the activities. We loved our stay at 8 Gardner Street and would highly recommend it. The owners were very responsive to our needs and emails and phone calls. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Wonderful Rental

Stayed here during the annual Daffodil Festival. The house is clean,bright with lots of light, and attractively decorated. New kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. Very quiet yet close to town for shopping, sight seeing and restaurants. Owners made sure everything was perfect for our weekend get away.
