About this house rental
This fully air-conditioned 3 bedroom cottage sits directly on Sengekontacket Pond in the town of Edgartown. You will be welcomed through a wooden archway leading you to a cobblestone courtyard full of perennial plantings leading up to a wrap-around mahogany deck that affords incredible views of Senge Pond and stone steps leading down to it. Inside you will find an open, very well appointed cottage with equally stunning views of the water.
The first floor has an open floor plan with the kitchen, dining room and living room all together with vaulted ceilings and skylights. The first floor is also where you will find the first two bedrooms, full bath and laundry. All conveniently located towards the back of the house and can be closed off with a door for added privacy.
Following the open staircase up to the second floor you will find a very nice sitting area just out side the master bedroom. Inside the master bedroom you still have amazing water views through the french doors that can also be closed off for privacy. Connected directly to the master bedroom is the second full bath.
This is a great cottage that is a perfect balance of island living with its clean white interior and hardwood floors, to its breathtaking water views. Its location on the pond is perfect for swimming, kayaking to the Jaw's Bridge, diving, boating or just about anything else you would like to do. Downtown Edgartown is only 2 miles away and the closest public beach is only 3 miles away and even though the cottage is just an 8 minute walk to the bus route and bike path it is still recommended to have a car for everyday convenience and to allow you the opportunity to explore the entire island and all that it has to offer.
So whether you're looking for an island getaway where you can enjoy everything from the privacy of your own cottage or if you're looking to see the whole island or a combination of the two, this is a perfect place to start.
Please be advised that if you plan on bringing a car to the island, especially during the peak summer months, it is mandatory to make reservations well in advance. The Steamship Authority typically begins accepting reservations in January for the upcoming year.

This house has a great view over the pond. Wonderful sunrises. The layout of the house works well. House was generally clean but not perfect. The house is next to a public beach access which is slightly noisey. AC worked well and was quiet.

I've visited this home many times and it never disappoints! Super comfortable, clean and well-stocked with gorgeous views. Close to downtown Edgartown. Peaceful and quiet. I can't wait to come back.

This is our second time renting this property and we are already looking for when we can return. Beautiful setting on the water, close bike ride to everything on MV, kayaks and paddleboards and beach gear provided, very comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen, great communication with owner. Easily the best rental we have experienced. This place is our dream!

We had a wonderful time at this cottage. The views over the pond were amazing. It is well located just outside Edgartown, with easy access to hiking - right down the road - and bike paths. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking, which we really appreciated. Didn't need to run out and buy anything for that. The kayaking was awesome - you can launch the kayaks right from your backyard. I don't have one negative thing to say about this rental. Owner super responsive to all my questions. Would love to return at some point!

What a great home for a get away. Gorgeous views of Senge pond (do get up for the sunrise!) surrounded by nature in a quiet neighborhood. Great for kids, family, and for exploring the island. Wonderful and accessible host. Easy check in process. Very cozy and highly recommend!

I love this home so much! The setting is gorgeous and the house is impeccably clean, comfortable and well-stocked. The hosts are extremely responsive. My sister-in-law and I have rented this property several times and are already looking forward to our next visit. Close enough to downtown but located in a quiet part of town that allows you to really feel like you are getting away from it all.

This place is truly magical! Breathtaking views of the sunrise and an explosion of colors at sunset. The home is well-appointed, fully equipped kitchen, very comfortable bedrooms and living spaces. Dave was the consummate host — supremely responsive and helpful.
If you enjoy, biking or walking — trails are close… of course, the kayaks were a treat….
We made lasting by memories as a family … and look forward to returning next year.
Seriously, look no further!

Waterfront Getaway
Beautiful, comfortable and spotless waterfront home. We loved everything about our Edgartown stay. April was super quiet on the island, a perfect way to enjoy it all! Hope to rent this property again some day soon!

Delightful home away from home
An excellent home away from home from which to explore the sights and walking trails of Martha's Vineyard. Everything in the house was well thought-out, right down to the labeled light switches! Kitchen was well-equipped, beds were comfortable. Five stars all around.

Beautiful home, amazing location, gorgeous view.
We were so close to everything we might want to do yet far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. This house was so well stocked and appointed, it had everything we needed and then some! We want to make this an annual event for our family! Thank you Dave and Renee for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Fabulous vacation!!!!
This property was amazing! All 6 of us truly enjoyed the house, the view, and the amenities it had to offer. As soon as we walked in, we knew we picked the right property. It was clean, charming, and the view was awesome. Equally important was the communication between David and us. Each time I e-mailed him with a question, he responded immediately. He was so helpful and patient. I couldn't have asked for a more communicative and pleasant property manager. It was an exceptional experience in every way! Thank you!

Perfection
We’ve been renting on MV for more than a decade & unanimously all agreed, this is the best house we’ve stayed in. David has done an outstanding job on this beautiful home: kitchen gear, crisp clean white sheets & towels, AC, new living room furniture- & more water toys than beds! We were on the kayaks & paddleboards *every day* we stayed, including 6am the day we left. It’s no wonder this property books up way in advance. Loved it, all of it! David was great!

Perfect week at MV
This property was incredible. The home was clean, well-stocked, organized and welcoming. The kids loved the kayaks and paddle board. The house is located a short distance to the downtown and beaches. Our week was amazing. Loved the island and the home.

Wonderful in every way...
As others have mentioned, this updated and modern home is beautiful - right on the water at Senge Pond - and the proximity to both Edgartown and Oak Bluffs can't be beat. There's a Stop & Shop within minutes and the house is very close to the bike trail. However, I'd also like to add a few other details that impressed us which might be important to other renters, too, such as... the home was super clean and the least buggy of any home we've rented, the water pressure was fantastic (even when doing laundry), the A/C units in every room worked really well and it was nice and cool during some fairly hot days, the beds and pillows were very comfy as well as the ample living room furniture for our family of five (which our teens loved), even the deck lounge chairs were amazing! And if you don't want to eat out all the time, there is every cooking apparatus you would need - including a crock pot! We loved this home, and wouldn't hesitate to return. Lastly, as a property manager, Dave was amazing and replied to all of our numerous questions in an extremely timely fashion. The best manager we've dealt with, hands down. This place is a gem!

Lovely Vineyard
This is our second time here and we absolutely love the upgraded living room! Beautiful home with great amenities - everything was well stocked (loved the kayaks, beach chairs and paddle boards for us to use). Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation.

Great house in a great location
When we come back to Martha’s Vineyard we won’t stay anywhere else. The house is the nice size for a family and the location is perfect. House is fully stocked with amenities, sits on a quiet street with direct access to a pond, and downtown Edgartown is only a bike ride away. Kayaks and paddle boards were an added bonus and got used almost everyday. Hosts were very helpful and responsive. Thanks Dave!

Even better than imagined!
What a gem we (my son, granddaughter, and I) found at Martha's Vineyard when we arrived at Dave's home. At water's edge, this home is spectacular in every way... location absolutely perfect, exquisite decor, and everything imaginably needed is furnished. This, our first trip to The Vineyard, will surely bring us back - hopefully to this most wonderful, very well maintained, and perfectly appointed, charming home reflecting the character of this island. In fact, we enjoyed the home and expansive deck so much that we opted to cut sightseeing short to simply relax there! Owner communication is excellent. Very highly recommend! Thank you!!

Breathtaking views
This wonderful house sits right on the water of Sengekontacket Pond. You wake to beautiful views visible from the main bedroom and enjoy them all through the day, rain or shine. Breathtaking. The house is beautifully appointed and has everything you need, and the owner was super responsive, dialoguing with me immediately when the power company messed some things up and staying on the issue until it was resolved. Super friendly and supportive. A quick drive into Edgartown center also gives you easy access to groceries and restaurants. Perfect!

Sanctuary on the Pond
In this charming white-washed cottage, our family of three were able to enjoy quiet moments observing natural bird life and sunrises. The view embraces the visitor rather than the other way around.
The home was clean and well-equipped and filled with sunshine and natural light. A thoroughly charming island get-away for any family wishing to truly unwind after a busy day exploring the Island.
