Humble Abode /Charming Cottage Near Long point Beach
3 bedroom, 2 full bath family friendly home down our road from Long Point Beach and pond (great swimming and paddling, calm for young children) in one direction and bike path in the other. Updated and comfortable, our cottage is the perfect getaway. Centrally located, ideal for both an up island and down island experience. The welcoming entrance invites you into the open living room, dining room and kitchen. The wrap around deck is in full view and accessed by sliders in the living room and outdoor shower. The two bedrooms on the first floor include 2 twins and 1 queen bed. The large, dramatic master suite occupies the second floor along with a private deck. Our home is set back far from the road providing lots of privacy surrounded by gardens and natural beauty. Lambert's Cove pass access.

Stayed here with four adults and one toddler. Easy communication with the host (no issues), good mid-island location so everything is basically 20m away at most, house is in very good condition and well-appointed, nice deck and outdoor area (a fire feature would make it perfect!).
Minor note: the upstairs master bedroom and main floor living/dining areas have A/C but the main floor bedrooms do not (they do have fans). Might not be an issue for you but FYI.
Thanks Robin!
Our stay at the Humble Abode last week was quite lovely. The house is very nice: clean, well equipped, well decorated, nice linens, and the owners are even nicer. Robin was right there if we ever had any questions. You can feel that the home is very loved by the owners. We would come back here in a minute. The location and access to other beaches was great due to the Plover babies on Norton Point. We had many options to choose from. Thank you for sharing your home with my family!
We stayed for Labor Day week in 2021. We loved everything about this home. Master suite was very private and large. We were four ladies and the home was large enough to give all of us some privacy. Location is mid island so convenient to everything. Clean, well outfitted. All the furniture looked new and was very comfortable. Nice outside decks. Surrounded by woods so very private. Owners were very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Would definitely rent again. Thanks Robin.
We had a wonderful week at the Humble Abode! The location of the house is perfect for exploring the entire island. Our family loved the beach at Lambert’s Cove, a great beach for young kids and it’s also an amazing place to catch the sunset! The host is great at communication, and will happily answer any questions you may have. We hope to return again!
Our family enjoyed staying at this property and have not one complaint. The house and property are very comfortable, well maintained and private. We enjoyed the quiet location and retreat from the crowds. We relaxed in the very comfortable deck furniture. The property is well located for easy travel to various locations on island. We were very comfortable in the house on rainy days. We easily purchased a beach pass for lambert’s cove (a 15 minute drive) for the calm water and lifeguard.
Our family had a wonderful week at Robin’s house! Everything was as described; we wanted for nothing during our stay. The owner was very communicative and easy to reach when we had questions. The house was clean, comfortable, and decorated in a classic beachy style. It was just perfect!
Had a delightful 2-week stay at this cozy and centrally-located house, practically next to Long Point Reserve. The house is welcoming and had everything I needed, and nice decks off the living area and upstairs bedroom let me enjoy the outdoors, while shielded by the surrounding trees. The owners were friendly and helpful, and very responsive throughout my stay.
Perfect house, perfect location, perfect weather… And most of all a perfect host. We couldn’t have been more happy. Robin was incredibly attentive and super quick with her responses to our questions. Hats off Robin for a brilliant week.
Lovely cottage with amenities nestled in a woodsy setting. Located near beaches with easy access to island services. Owner is very helpful, kept in easy contact by phone/email & provided useful information. Our family of 6 adults had an enjoyable, relaxing experience.
Great house and great hosts. Great week on a beautiful island - house is centrally located, quiet, everything we needed.

Close to everything but very private
I was hesitant to write this review because I'm kind of feeling like I don't want to give up the location of a hidden gem. This is an awesome property. It's centrally located so any place on the island is easily accessible but, it's off the beaten path enough to provide a lot of privacy. The house is actually nicer than the pictures indicate. Everything that you would need is provided for, and then some. Also, the property owners, Robin and Larry, could not have been more accommodating. They made us feel more like family than renters. We are hoping to rent it again next year.

Awesome, comfortable house with everything you need!
The house was great - close to everything (especially Long Point) - we had a few cloudy/rainy days but the living area was comfortable and cozy and there was a whole closet of games to fill the time - the deck with the table and chairs, and the loveseat/chair set were perfect for breakfast and coffee - the kitchen had everything you could possibly need, all of those little extras - the master bedroom is somewhat of a loft area however, so just be aware of that - otherwise, it's perfect!

Great house, great location!
We had a great week in Martha's Vineyard. We have rented many homes on the Vineyard and found that Robin's Cottage was all we hoped for. It was comfortable and well equipped. The location was excellent! Close to everything including bike path, downtown Edgartown, Featherstone, Alley's General Store and beautiful beaches. Will definitely come back!!

About the host
Hosted by Robin
Why they chose this property
Martha's Vineyard has always been our favorite place to vacation with our family. After looking for several years, It only took minutes of walking into this property that we knew this had to be our home - it had all the charm of a quintessential Martha's Vineyard beach house and all the updates of casual modern living with an open floor plan. The circular pebble driveway set off the road is as inviting outside as it is inside. We hope you will enjoy our home as much as we do!
What makes this property unique
Our house is located in the ideal location, minutes to the beach - literally down a tree lined and beautiful road where you can bike to the beach without entering the main road. It also has access to nearby bike paths that in one direction leads to Edgartown and in the other direction to Grange Hall, where there are weekly summer farmer's markets and art festivals.
