This is a wonderful vacation cottage! It’s a relatively quick walk into town and about a fifteen/twenty minute bike ride to Cisco/Ladies beach, which is our favorite. The only caveat is that both huge, comfortable king beds are in the same large upstairs space - if that works for you I would highly recommend this Nantucket getaway space!
We had an amazing stay at this lovely cottage. Location was perfect. Easy walk into town and far enough to avoid traffic if driving out to Sconset. Cottage was so lovely and had everything we needed. Washer and dryer came in handy after beach days, and the outdoor shower was used more than the indoor one. Extremely pleasant stay at this perfect cottage. Thank you so much for hosting us!
We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. It was clean, well equipped and located right next to the wave bus stop - very convenient to get around the island. The owner was very responsive to my questions - highly recommend!
We loved the new patio cushions and light fixture above the staircase. Each year there are updated treats in the cottage. It's always a terrific visit and a perfect getaway.
I recently stayed at this property with my husband and two young kids. The house was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The carriage house was perfect for our family and the location was ideal. I walked to town a couple of times and grabbed coffee/breakfast at two nearby coffee shops every morning which were a 2-3 min. walk. Surfside beach is a 5-6 min. drive. The bike/running path is outside the door and there is a bike shop about a 5 min. walk from the house. Also, the Stop and Shop is only a 3 min. drive for last minute items. Overall, we had an excellent stay and would highly recommend this house for your stay on Nantucket!
Centrally located, on bike path and close to everything, can walk or bike to old town and beaches or take shuttle bus. Same with restaurants and stores. Nice back yard and porch. Had a problem with the Cleaning crew, did not do the job, left the place dirty, we talked to the owner about it, sent him pictures, he responded quickly. A couple of maintenance items need to be addressed, we talked to the owner about that also, again he responded quickly, non of the items effected our stay, and it is at the end of the season. Nantucket is a very special place to enjoy nature, history, biking and fishing. Get out and enjoy the island!
This lovely carriage house is clean, bright, comfortable and well equipped. The backyard patio is a great place to relax or dine. The owners were very prompt in responding to our questions and concerns. A perfect spot for our two week stay on Nantucket. We can’t wait to come back.
The property was ideal for 2 people. Although small it provided amenities that enhanced our stay with the exception of not having a dishwasher. Close to everything with bike paths leading in all directions. Walk to get coffee and breakfast. Easy access to town and beach. The adjacent rental property is on the same lot and was vacant when we rented so it was quiet and relaxing!
Small but mighty home, perfect for my wife and I but would also totally work for a family with young kids. Location was amazing, its a short drive to all the great beaches, restaurants and town. We had a car on island but its a close walk to a bike rental property and the bus line. House was completely as advertised, nice outdoor space, shower/patio/grill. Inside was what you needed and the bed(s) were very comfortable.
Only issue we had was that the cleaning service didn't do a good job at all. Found that we needed to clean a lot of the dishes ourselves prior to using them, the floor needed a good vacuum and sweep for sure. The grill - while was fine - could use an upgrade, it did take a bit to cook a meal even for two on it.
I wouldn't let those get in the way of staying here - its affordable relative to a similar house and in a primo location. But I would ask the owner to get the cleaning service to do a MUCH better job.
Peter's Carriage House was exactly as pictured in his photos. The decor was just right for a Nantucket beach house. We were quite comfortable there and enjoyed our stay. We definitely recommend Peter's place for a couple or small family!
A perfect spot for our small family of three. Easy to walk to a few local spots and a short drive everywhere else on the island. The space is clean and has everything you need. Communication with the hosts was easy!
Accurate listing. I really enjoyed the location. I love to walk. Walked to town, Bartlett Farm and Surfside. Peaceful backyard patio with shade from beautiful trees and birds. One afternoon we played cards outside. The outdoor shower was great too. Thank you! TC
The cottage was lovely and had everything we needed for a comfortable vacation. The owner was prompt to answer any questions we had. We liked the location as it was private and easy to drive or bike almost anywhere on the island. An excellent bakery/lunch spot was a two minute walk away, and Bartlett’s Farm was close by for shopping and take away dinners. We highly recommend.
The house was adorable and perfect size for my husband and I to stay the week. It felt larger than the square footage and the backyard space was nice. Very close to town, we were able to bike ride there with ease.
I was disappointed with the level of simple amenities that were not provided (ie: toilet paper and soap). Other than that, it was a great experience and we would definitely stay again.
The location comes as described, but didn’t have any extra toilet paper or paper towels beyond the half roll of each the previous occupants left. The water was oddly cold in the kitchen for the first 3/4 of the trip, but the shower and bathroom had no issues.
On a side note, as much as people want you to think Nantucket is bike friendly, good luck. The island has bike paths, but none of them will take you into town easily unless you’re used to the 35-45 min bike rides. Definitely take advantage of the bussing system (WAVE). Pick up and drop off is within 200ft of the front door.
We love our visits here so much, and each year there is a new update to the cottage: a modern spa-like bath was the surprise this time! The weather was perfect, we enjoyed the outdoor shower and back yard, and it was a perfectly lovely time on the island.
This was the perfect size for our sisters getaway. We were steps to the bus stop and close to Surfside Beach. Just a short walk or cab trip to the downtown area. Peter was great about answering our questions and meeting our needs. We would stay again.
The house was perfect for my husband and I . The location of the house always seemed 10-15 minutes from everything. Nice bakery we walked to each morning for breakfast sandwiches. Bed comfortable , house clean would stay there again .
