We couldn’t have asked for a better week. Gretchen was very responsive to my questions and her home was absolutely perfect. The quality is outstanding. The layout allows for multiple sleeping arrangements that were great for our group. The organization made everything very easy and the house was fully equipped with everything you could need but not so much that it was cluttered. The location is super convenient and allows you to avoid the beach traffic coming out of town. We cannot wait to return next year! Thanks Gretchen!

We sadly just returned from a wonderful visit to Nantucket and are missing the idyllic beauty of the island and the architecture. Gretchen and Mark’s home reflect this ambience! The description ‘airy and spacious’ rang true. Truly a great, comfortable space design and lovely interior design elements! We enjoyed this smart, absolutely beautiful home tremendously! The neighborhood which is a small HOA is adorable and the pool tranquil and pretty! Gretchen was truly kind, helpful and responsive!! We would love to visit again

This home is even better than shown in the photos! It is supplied with everything you could want, the owners respond quickly to any questions you may have and it’s a lovely place to spend your holiday. It doesn’t disappoint! We are thinking about staying again next year because it’s the best VRBO we have ever stayed in!

I honestly can't think of much to say about Gretchen's house that I didn't write previously. It is a wonderful house, in a great location, very nicely furnished, and Gretchen couldn't be a more helpful host. Hope to come back again soon!

Having stayed here in 2020, and then having to cancel last year due to us all catching Covid, we were anxious to come to Nantucket again this year and stay in Gretchen's wonderful house again. It did not disappoint.
This really is a perfect house - it is still very new, and was clearly well constructed. The location is superb - close to Fat Ladies beach and just a few minutes drive from Miacomet and Cisco. The house has very tasteful furnishings, and comes with all manner of nice touches which you rarely see in ACK rental houses.
One thing to note is that this house genuinely sleeps 10 people, with 4 ensuite bedrooms and a second ensuite master on the ground floor which currently has a pull-out sofa. There is outdoor dining for 8 at the large table with another table that could fit 4, and indoor dining for at least 8. Many ACK houses will claim to sleep 8 but in reality they don't have the space for more than 5 or 6 - this is not one of those houses.
Gretchen is really easy to deal with, and we hope to be able to stay here again in the near future.

This is our second year in a row staying here and we love it. The house is immaculate- a perfect landing spot for our family. Close to town and all the south shore beaches - plus Bartlett’s Farm and the brewery. We look forward to coming back again!

Our family had a wonderful stay on Finback Lane. The house was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated, exactly what you want for a vacation rental. There were many amenities that we really appreciated having access to - beach towels, beach chairs, pack n play, soap/shampoo, coffee, outdoor shower and of course the pool at the end of the street. All of these extras made our stay so enjoyable.
In our group there were 2 families (4 adults and 6 children) and there was plenty of space for everyone. There is a bedroom with a king size bed and another room with a queen size pullout. The property is advertised as a home good for 2 families (sleeping for 10) and there were plenty of beds to go around so everyone had a comfortable sleeping arrangements but it would have been ideal to have another of the bedroom with a queen/king size bed.
We have been coming to Nantucket for over 10 years with our family and have always stayed close to town so were a little nervous that we may regret staying further inland. We have zero regrets and really enjoyed all of the extra perks of staying further outside of town - the extra space, yard, pool, proximity to the bike back and beaches and quiet neighborhood. We would definitely recommend staying at Finback Lane!

Wonderful time on ACK
We had a wonderful time staying just west of town! The house is exactly what you would be looking for to house a family of all ages while visiting Nantucket. Communication was excellent and the house exceeded our expectations.
We look forward to returning next year!

Great Stay in Nantucket
Our family really enjoyed this property. It is tucked in a great, small subdivision that also feels very secluded. Very well organized and decorated. Convenient location to WAVE stop and within a short bike ride to several restaurants / grocery store.

Wonderful week in Nantucket
My family stayed here in August (kids are aged 20, 17 and 14). This is probably the 15th house we have rented in Nantucket over the last 20 years, and it was by far the best. I hope we can stay here again the next time we are here (next year, hopefully).
Gretchen is a great host. She is flexible and communicative, with quick replies to any and all questions. Hands down the best owner we have encountered.
The house is only a few years old, and it appears to be very well built and in great condition. The fixtures are of a high quality, and the furniture is new and comfortable and stylish.
The photos don't do the house justice, as the living room is bigger than it seems, as it the kitchen. The upstairs floor has 3 ensuite bedrooms, while the basement has another bedroom plus a play room. In addition, there is an extra living room with a pull-out sofa; this room also has an ensuite bathroom and walk-in closet. So really there are 5 bedrooms, and this house can comfortably accommodate 10 people (which is unusual in Nantucket where many houses claim to be able to sleep more than they really can).
The upstairs floor also has a nice little hallway with a couple of chairs and 2 desks which are a nice touch. Wifi throughout the house is good (it was very sluggish initially but was fine after I rebooted the system).
Location is excellent - there's a bike path running past the end of the street so you can get to other parts of the island very easily (and safely). Town is a few minute drive away. There are also some great beaches on this side of the island - Fat Ladies is a few minutes drive away and that was our favorite this year due to its proximity and lack of crowds.
The outdoor area is also great, with new teak dining furniture with space for 8 easily, and 10 at a stretch (10 chairs are provided). There's also a table with 2 chairs and a sofa for additional seating, as well as some Adirondack chairs. Outdoor shower, and a handy footwashing station add to the creature comforts.
There are also a couple of nice little touches - there's a Dyson vacuum which was really handy for removing sand from the car trunk, and also a blue cooler bag which was great for taking a few drinks to the beach to watch the sunset.
All in all, we had a wonderful week, and the house was perfect. 5 stars all around.
