This home was located in a perfect location and full of New England charm. We were able to walk around easily due to the convenient location. Additionally, the house had great outdoor space, which we enjoyed due to unexpected nice weather. We were also able to use the beach chairs and towels, which was a great perk.

Our group of 9 absolutely loved this home!
A short walk from the ferries, and even closer to downtown, this home is ideally situated for any number of events on the island.
The large bedrooms and unique layout of the house allowed for all of us to feel like we had our own space, but also could spend time together in the yard, kitchen, or living room.
The yard on the side of the house was perfect for an engagement proposal. The lawn is perfectly manicured with privacy shrubs and gorgeous blooming rhododendrons.
We would absolutely stay here again, and highly recommend anyone interested!

family gathering (NJ/MT/MA/NY) to celebrate a wedding. Older generation (siblings) fully enjoyed investigating the old house; younger generation (cousins) just loved being together again. Thanks for a wonderful stay with such a convenient location.

This rental was perfect for our group of friends on annual weekend trip. The location couldn’t be better, a very short walk to everything downtown. The house is spacious and full of historic charm. Great yard as well. We hope to return!

Excellent location within a short walk to many landmarks or shops in town. This beautiful home made our large family comfortable during a wedding weekend.

We had a great stay and the home was prefect for our group of friends. The location to town could not be better, a quick walk to restaurants but still on a quiet street. We would definitely rent again!
4.0 / 5.0
Ideally located, the home is inviting and comfortable for a group of about 10. Large kitchen table, dining table, outside table, family room and lawn with chairs that each accommodate 10 easily. Kitchen is fully stocked with all the pots/pans, serving platters, dishes, etc. that you might need. We cooked in a couple nights and had a great time!
Casual and comfortable, the house shows its age, but that is not a concern. (However, if you are looking for updated with amenities - it's probably not the right fit). Bathrooms are a bit dated, but again, everything that one would need. Plenty of towels, beach towels, beach chairs. The host is super-gracious, so you can feel confident renting. I can't think of a better location for walking to town, without hearing the town noise. There is one very nice master bedroom, a reasonably large second bedroom, then the rest are smaller (so better for kids/family, rather than couple friends who might feel they didn't get one of the better bedrooms). Thank you to our host!

Family Nantucket wedding
Seths house is a beautiful, historic, well equipped property. We ended up with 9 adults and 2 infants and there was more than enough room. A couple minute walk from shopping, less than 10 minute walk from the ferry, a block from historic Main Street. Spacious kitchen, living room, garden and patio for relaxing and family time. Seth has a comprehensive house manual in the kitchen that lays out any questions one might have. We highly recommend a stay here!

Prime location in a charming house
As detailed in the property listing, this grand old house in the center of Nantucket made for a great stay for our family and friends. Seth was great in responding to our questions and helping with the threat of a major hurricane to start our week!

Perfect In-town house
The Liberty Street house is the perfect way to experience Nantucket--two blocks from Main Street, thus walking distance to all the town's activities. The house itself conveys the charm of historic Nantucket, but with all the modern conveniences. Its large, well-supplied kitchen provided lots of room for my three daughters and myself as we prepared meals. My favorite part, however, was the large teak table outdoors where we had all our dinners, surrounded by beautiful blue hydrangeas bathed in the evening sunlight. The side yard also was perfect for the grandkids to play games and run around. The owner provided clear instructions within a bound manual, as well as easy communication with him via email/text. We had a wonderful week in Nantucket, enhanced by the comfortable Liberty Street home.

Great location, large home!
First off, this house is very OLD - built in 1793! But that is part of what makes it so amazing and really gives off that old Nantucket charm! We had a group of 10 with PLENTY of room to spread out! You really can't get a better location - walking distance to town, restaurants, shopping, and the beach! There is also a large outdoor table in the backyard, where we spent a good amount of time. We also thought the price wasn't bad (especially for Nantucket lol.) Overall would highly recommend this home for a group trip and would love to come back! Thank you to the host, Seth, for such a great stay!

Couldn't Ask for More
Spent Memorial Day Weekend at this property and couldn't have asked for a better vacation rental. The "Old Nantucket" charm of this house is hard to do justice with words and pictures. We were oohing and ahhhing over it the minute we walked in. The location of the house was convenient to everything downtown and the ferry. Highly Recommended!

Great old house with lots of room for the family
We had a great time at 23 Liberty in Nantucket. It's a great old house with lots of early 1800's charm and fantastic quiet location a very short walk to the center of Nantucket town and all the shops and restaurants.
Plenty of bedrooms for the extended family and all were surprisingly quiet!
Beautiful side and backyard for relaxing, grilling and playing with our little grandchildren.

Great location, comfortable house.
I would absolutely recommend staying at 23 Liberty. Our group consisted of 12 people, though there are enough beds for 14. Rooms are large, there are a few without AC, but opening the windows made it very comfortable at night. Kitchen is stocked, beach towels are included, and the beach chairs / boogie boards were put to good use. Best part - you cannot beat the location. Easy walk into town, catch the shuttle to/from Cisco Brewery, and convenient access to the Wave.

Terrific Memorial Day Weekend on Nantucket
The home was absolutely perfect for our group. We were a large group of couples, although it would be a great home for families as well. The yard is quite large and well maintained, and was perfect for playing lawn games. The back deck area was perfect for grilling and made for some very nice outdoor dinners when the weather allowed. There is seating for 10 in the back area. The house was unexpectedly large, with 7 bedrooms that were very well spaced out, a large kitchen, and numerous common rooms to socialize. It gave us the ability to all come together but there was also enough privacy that people could sneak off for personal time, naps, and peace and quiet. The house was clean when we arrived and provided everything you could need including coolers, cooking supplies, and beach towels. The location is tremendous, 3 min walk from main street and plenty of coffee shops, restaurants, and stores in the nearby downtown area. The street the house is on is very quiet and made for a nice morning walk as we went to get our coffees. Also only a 10 minute walk from both ferry locations. Tremendous stay overall and would definitely recommend.

Fabulous in every way!
Our trip was so great because of four factors:
1. The house was large enough for all of us to have our own "space", which is important to a family of six adults and two children. We each had room to spread out.
2. We were a block away from town, which was wonderful for all of us. There was always someplace to go or something to do, if one was looking for activity: nobody was ever "stuck" or trapped. I should add that we're a very close family, but maybe more so because we don't insist that everyone always be together.
3. The bathrooms, kitchen appliances, laundry appliances, and the outdoor shower ALL worked perfectly, AND they were all clean. EVERYTHING was clean! What a gift.
4. When we had a question or a problem (once we couldn't find a key, and once we blew a fuse), Eric picked up the phone when we called and walked us through the solutions. Quick, easy and responsive: problem solved.
I couldn't have asked for more for my family. It was an A+! Thank you, Eric!

Wonderful Stay!
We had a wonderful stay at Eric's property on Nantucket. The house is great for a large group of people. Charming antique qualities, but also updated where necessary (bathrooms, kitchen, etc.). You couldn't ask for a better location! 5 minute walk into town was ideal, particularly with no car. The house also has a wonderful outdoor space (large outdoor table, lawn space with chairs, wooden swing, etc.) - which we made great use of. Eric is very responsive and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend - thanks for a great weekend!

Great place for Memorial Day weekend
We had a great time at Eric's place on Nantucket on Memorial and will definitely be returning again soon! The property is located on a quiet street close to town. It is very nicely decorated and has plenty of room for a big group. Eric is very easy to work with and a great communicator. Thanks for a great weekend!

Great place
Pleasantly surprised at how new and antique charming the house was. We kept it full and for the people who had never been to Nantucket in our party, they were thrilled with the charm. Highly recommended.
