About this house rental
Our peaceful five bedroom home has it all. We meticulously landscaped and decorated for our family and now are opening our home to Vrbo! We're located down a private dirt road off a paved bike bath and next to South Beach. In front we are overlooking a brackish cove filed with herring and crabs. The bird life view from our deck is epic. Beyond the cove in the distance you can see the back of South Beach and glimpses of the Atlantic Ocean. The views are horse farms and to die for pastoral serenity.
You'll eat dinner on the deck watching all the nature unfold in front of you as you prepare for the most beautiful sunset you've ever seen over the farms and cove. Once the sun is down you'll move quickly to pitch dark nights with incredible star gazing and only the sound of the waves at South Beach to reinforce the moment. If you get a bug to see other people, you're a short walk to South Beach (or a short distance to driving your car onto the beach).
There's a paved bike path at the end of our dirt road that goes into Edgartown or around the Island for those that want to avoid cars all together. We are a 10 minute flat bike ride into Edgartown for some world class dining. This is a very unique house and setting that provides very quick access to civilization with utter seclusion in a natural setting for the privacy seeker. Simply the best of both worlds!

This is the second year we’ve stayed here and you can’t beat the location! The house is really great and fits our large family well. The outdoor space at the house is also amazing. You get a great taste for the outdoors and remoteness of the vineyard here while at the same time are close enough to downtown Edgartown to enjoy the scene there!

We absolutely loved our stay! Denise was a gracious and extraordinary host. The property was dreamy and the house was a big hug. Can’t wait to come back! Look no further.

We had a wonderful week in Katama. The house is spacious and bright, and in a terrific location. Easy biking to Edgartown and South Beach, and great breakfasts at the Katama Airfield and Katama Market. The house is well-stocked with everything for the beach and for making family meals together. Thank you Denise for hosting our family!

This property is stunning! We love the vineyard and have stayed for years in this vicinity but this property has now taken the top spot! The location and privacy cannot be beat and the owner is fantastic, responding to any questions promptly! Our family had a wonderful stay and we did not want to leave …. the week flew by! So many memories were made in just this one week - it was just perfect!

Lovely Secluded Rental Home
This is the second time we have rented this home for a friends and family vacation. The location is perfect, very private and just a 10 min walk to South Beach. The home is spacious with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our group of 10.

Happy Visit
Had a great visit. just too short for four days. House well appointed in both location and with layout. Just be aware that you must rent all your bedding and towels. Very convenient that bicycles were delivered to us. We loved the outdoor shower and eyed the fire pit although no time to use. Made some housekeeping recommendations that hopefully will be followed up with ...the kitchen needs a good clean out and better organization/replacement of cooking utensils as well as closet where all the beach gear is stored..

Perfect spot with everything nearby
The Location: In one word, it’s fantastic. It’s a 3-minute bike ride to South Beach (the Atlantic). It’s a one-minute bike ride to the broad, separated bike path to Edgartown which is under 15 minutes pedaling away. The property the house sits on is also very private with very few other houses nearby. Looking from the main deck on the second floor of the house, one has a vista of trees and hills for over a mile with glimpse of Edgartown Great Pond less than half a mile away and fewer than half a dozen houses in sight!
The House: The house itself is very roomy, well designed, and in great shape. The rooms are all very spacious. The house is an “upside-down” house, that is, the living room, dining room, and kitchen are all on the second floor (as is the master bedroom) because that’s where the best views are. The master bedroom (with a bathroom en suite) is large with its own balcony (also accessible from the kitchen/dining area). The living room is gigantic, and all the second floor has lots of windows, so feels very light. A loft can be reached from the living area by a tight spiral staircase and has a double bed and two twins with trundle bets – great for kids. The first floor has another en suite bedroom and two other bedrooms as well as a large living area dominated by a pool table which our guests enjoyed using.
The decks of the house are simply great. Watching the sunset from the main deck outside the living room is a delight and dinner out there is glorious. A smaller deck (accessed through the master bedroom or the kitchen) is great breakfast area or pre-dinner cocktail area. Central AC in the house keeps it cool on the few really hot days. A fully enclose outdoor shower in the back is a treat coming back from the beach.
The Host: Denise was always easy to reach and very helpful. She had thoughtful suggestions and her follow-up was always reliable. She seemed eager to make our stay as enjoyable as possible.

What a wonderful stay!! The house and view is even more beautiful in person. It’s really a special, relaxing place to listen to the birds and getaway. Great location to be close to the beach and quick drive into town while removed from any noise. Had everything we needed! Hope to come again soon

Martha's Vineyard Getaway
The location and house was perfect for our party of 11. There is ample space to spread out in the kitchen and common areas. The pool table was great for kids and adults. The beach is a short walk from the house or a super quick drive if you rent a vehicle. Grocery shopping in Edgartown is 10 mins away. If this is your first time renting a house on Martha's Vineyard be aware that you have to rent bed linens, bath towels, beach towels and kitchen towels. This appears to be standard protocol for this island but easy to do as there are 3 linen rental business to choose from. I definitely recommend this property rental for your vacation.

Another Incredible Vacation
Our second year staying here and with all the craziness going on in the world today we were so looking forward to our week on the island and we could not have had a more incredible time. Spent the mornings on the deck listening to the waves crashing, walked/rode bikes to the beach and breakfast at Katama Airfield, zipped into town a few nights. It was more than enough room for all of us. Thank you Denise for another great year!

Perfect experience.
Could not have asked for a better experience with Denise - she was incredibly attentive and communicative. The house is gorgeous, secluded, clean and beautiful, and an easy walk to a beautiful beach - even with multiple children in tow! We are so thankful to have had the opportunity to stay here and hope to have the chance to do so again soon!

Perfect Getaway
What a beautiful home and sooo close to the beach. The back yard is beautiful, the deck 'What A View', Swans on the pond, baby deer at the edge of the property every day, Osprey nest (bring some binoculars). Plenty of room for all of our friends and family. We had some great games of pool every night. Plenty of hot water for everyone and the outdoor shower was incredible. We could not have had a better stay! Can't wait to go back next year. Easy and fast contact with the owner when needed.

Great experience, really spacious house in perfect location.
My friends and I had a great experience with this house. It has everything you need for an enjoyable vacation. Very nice property in a perfect location. The owner Denise was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with during our stay as well. I highly recommend this house to anyone going to the Vineyard.

Perfect for 2 Families!
Beds galore in a peaceful, calming setting.
The owner was dead on when she mentioned the number of birds & wildlife you would see. We had the privilege of seeing deer on a few occasions & the birds woke us each & every morning.
The layout of the home allows for the upstairs bedroom occupants to be up ahead of the rest of the house & not wake or disturb the other guests. The upper loft allowed for our group of kids to have their own space away from the adults.
If I had to pick on one thing that was not great, it was that you do have to rent linens. It was a minor pain to have to go pick them up & then make your own beds & then strip them at the end of the stay.
But other than that, the owner was extremely helpful & quick to respond to my questions. She was very accommodating in helping one of my party pay in a different fashion. I cannot thank her enough for her home & her hospitality.
I would highly recommend this home for groups (we had 11 (6 adults & 5 kids(6, 6, 7, 7 & 11))!!!

Perfect location for exploring Martha's Vineyard
Our family from around the country gathered at this lovely property to participate in the inaugural Martha's Vineyard Marathon. It was a great home for our family reunion as it provided both private spaces with the numerous bedrooms and communal spaces with its roomy living and outdoor areas for sharing food and conversation and even games of pool. The property is well-equipped with a large kitchen that accommodates multiple people cooking together. Its tucked-away location near south beach has relaxing views of meadows, pond, and wildlife; however, it is also convenient to the towns on the Vineyard with their excellent shopping and restaurant locales.

Amazing House!
What a wonderful stay we had at this amazing house. It exceeded expectations! The views and property are stunning. Denise was always responsive to any questions we had. We stayed here for a wedding and this house made it that much more special. I would recommend anyone staying in Martha's Vineyard with a large group, this is the house for you. You will not be disappointed!

Beautiful house and great location!
We stayed here for a week over the Fourth of July and had a terrific time. The house is beautiful -- clean, spacious with a great deck and outdoor space with a nice view. The location is also excellent -- waking distract to South Beach but also a short ride by bike or car into Edgartown. The owners are also very thoughtful and responsive -- a great place for a vacation to the Vineyard!

Perfect Vineyard Retreat
This home exceeded our expectations! The home was
located near beautiful South Beach and an easy drive to Long Point where our kids love to swim in the pond. It has a large lovely deck where we enjoyed sunsets and fresh lobster dinners. The real gem in this home is the ocean view from the loft where my 3 girls slept. Breathtaking! We highly recommend this gorgeous, spacious home. It's the perfect retreat for 2 families with 8 kids combined!

Great house for a big group
This was an amazing house with plenty of space, huge yard and walking distance to South Beach. It was perfect for a bigger group and the pool table was a nice touch. Denise was great and I would recommend this house to anyone that doesn't want to be right in town.

Great Home
We had a great time with an extrondianry View. Our week was filled with so many great memories and this house allowed us to come together and experience them all. From the breathtaking views in the morning to star fiilled evenings. The Decor throughout the home helped create the perefect Vineyard feel. Lots of open space thru out the home and lots of attention to detail. The ability to drive not even a 1/2 mile to the beach was perfect. And let's not forget watching the bi-planes take off and land.. We named your home the Crown Jewel because for us it was fit for the Kings and Queens that we are. Hope to be back next year to make more memories.

Katama Dream House
We had the most amazing stay in Katama for Memorial Day Weekend. The house far exceeded our expectations in absolutely every way possible - the pictures don't do it justice! Denise was incredibly helpful with all of our arrangements prior to our arrival and was available via email at all times if we ever needed her. The house was well stocked with everything we needed including cooking & cleaning supplies, utensils, and extra beach chairs. We absolutely loved the top deck - we spent the entire weekend out there and loved watching the sunset over the water with a glass of wine. We'll definitely be back! Thank you Denise!
