About this property

Secret Retreat w/private saltwater pool - close to Cisco Brewery & Town

Feel like you're truly getting away from it all and escape to a cottage retreat with a private saltwater pool! Tucked away on a dead-end sandy road, our sweet house is situated on a green one-acre parcel that feels like a secluded park.

The property grounds are the real secret; guests are usually surprised when they arrive to see how much space there is to explore. Marsh Hawk Cottage features plenty of outdoor "rooms" and nooks for you to enjoy the beauty of being outside!
* Dine on the large deck
* Practice yoga or sunbathe on the upstairs balcony
* Enjoy cocktails or a good book at the bluestone patio
* Play catch, frisbee, or corn hole in the yard
* Curl up in the hammock for a nap after a dip in the pool
* Sit in the Adirondack chairs and see what wildlife wanders by
* Snooze and socialize in the chaise longue by the pool
* There's a private outdoor shower, too

Meanwhile, everything you need is nearby. You'll find comfort knowing that you're in a location with convenient access to:
* Mid-island supermarket, pharmacies, and restaurants
* Cisco Brewery, Bartlett's Farm, and 167 Raw
* Miacomet golf course
* BEACHES!! Cisco, Miacomet, and Surfside are all just a bike ride away
* Town (just over a mile away)

If you decide to cook at the house, you will have an outdoor gas grill and a small but well-stocked indoor kitchen (All-Clad stainless steel cookware, Breville Barista espresso maker, gadgets) at your disposal.

The kitchen, dining room and living room flow together in an open plan on the first floor, making socializing a breeze.

There are two bedrooms (one with a queen-sized bed, one with two twins plus a pullout twin sofa bed) on the main floor, and one bedroom upstairs (full-sized bed). There is an additional full-sized pullout sofa bed in the upstairs sitting area.

A/C: The house does not have central air conditioning. There is a window unit in the Queen bedroom downstairs, and a mini-split in the upstairs Full bedroom. There is also a mini-split in the living room.

We supply luxury cotton bed linens and towels and soap. Please bring your own shampoo.

Premium channel cable and wifi included at no additional charge. There is a small tv in the living room, and small televisions in the upstairs bedroom and downstairs queen bedroom.

Wonderful Stay in Nantucket!

We absolutely loved your property! It is close enough to town, yet far enough away to really relax and enjoy the surroundings. Elizabeth was fantastic to work with and we look forward to returning in the future!

Beautiful home!

What a perfect place for a family vacation! The house was updated and comfortable, and we had a great time playing in the beautiful pool with our kids. A short drive or easy bike to town or the beach, but secluded enough to allow us to enjoy each other, star gaze at night, and relax.

Perfect Getaway

Our family had such a wonderful stay at this home on Nantucket. It was perfectly private, peaceful and beautiful. The home is located a mile + from town, far enough away from the hustle and bustle of town but still an easy drive or bike ride if you prefer. This home was also an easy drive to Bartlett Farm, Cisco Brewery and the south shore beaches which is where we went every day. The house was perfect in every way, very comfortable and had everything we needed. We stayed here with our two teenage children. The outdoor deck and the pool were used every day, a great space for fun as a family or relaxing reading a book. We would love to definitely return to this lovely home!
