The cottage is a really interesting layout, all one story, and worked well for our family (2 adults, 2 children). Plenty of room to spread out and enjoy time together or a quiet spot for reading. I can imagine that the huge deck and screened porch would be perfect places to hang out in sunnier weather.
We were on the Vineyard for a friend's wedding and some of the other children hung out with us for part of the day, and they loved roaming around and exploring the wooded areas around the cottage. It's safe, secluded, no traffic to worry about. We followed the directions in the guest guidelines and walked down to the end of the road for beach access to the pond, which was gorgeous. Even in the wind and rain, the whole island is beautiful and lovely to explore. This cottage is in a nice location because Edgartown and Vineyard Haven are both easy to get to.
Steven was very communicative. We received all the information we needed well in advance, and the "guest guidelines" document was thorough and helpful. This is a wonderful rental and we'd recommend it highly!
