West Island is an undiscovered gem that is an hour drive from Boston without the hassle of the bridges or traffic of Cape Cod. Over half the island is State conservation land offering many trails and wildlife.

Sea Salt has a large cathedral ceiling open concept kitchen dining area with all brand new stainless steel appliances, living room with gas fireplace, 60 inch HDTV and DVD player, WiFi, three bedrooms ,walk in rainfall shower, full sized washer and dryer ,all make up the inside of our home.
Relax on the back porch overlooking a lush landscaped partially fenced yard, grill local caught seafood on outside gas grill , enjoy dining under the stars in our sea shelled dining area, sit around a natural rock fire pit or let your cares wash away in an outside spa, complete with rainfall shower and an antique claw foot tub with hot and cold water. Once here you may never want to leave.
For your convenience we provide beach towels, beach chairs, cooler, reading books and some board games.
Within 4 miles you will find large supermarket chains, department stores and restaurants. There is a ferry located at both Fairhaven and New Bedford that can take you to Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket.

The house was beautifully decorated without being precious. There were many places both inside and outside to relax. The three bedrooms are off the kitchen and the feeling of the rest of the house is open and bright. In the shed there were several bikes from which to choose. We hadn't been to West Island before; it's pretty sleepy...one ice cream place .1 mile away:) We mostly just hung around reading and eating ice cream every night and that worked for us! The island is very easy to figure out as it's an alphabetical grid. It seems like it would be a great place to bring kids because they could ride their bikes around without much worry.

Every five star review for this home and the people who own it is well deserved. This is the only home I’ve ever rented where the reality was better than the description. It truly is a special place where every detail is considered. The owners are thoughtful, friendly and go above and beyond in every way imaginable. The home is comfortable, warm and inviting and an oasis away from everything, while being close enough to everything a person could want or need. I feel so fortunate to have found this special place and will definitely return.

I rented the house to attend my daughter's wedding and it couldn't have been a more perfect home away from home. Kitchen was well stocked and the house was decorated beautifully. The host was very responsive and helpful. Bikes and cornhole came in handy!!

Beth & Steve are amazing hosts! Sea Salt Cottage is a true gem. The location can't be beat: only a mile from the private beach on West Island and only 15 minutes from the New Bedford ferry terminal. The house is so comfortable inside and out, with a gorgeous kitchen, a cozy back porch, outdoor shower, swing, lawn for games, and a firepit. Our family has stayed at Sea Salt Cottage for four years in a row and can't wait to go back next year!

we loved our stay at Sea Salt Cottage- the property was well kept and very clean. The kids enjoyed smores every night at the firepit, bike rides around the island and ice cream from West Island Creamery. Beth was also a very responsive host. Highly recommend a stay here- the cottage brought us back to our New England childhood!
