West Tisbury Vacation Rental - ID 2501

Lovely wooded location. Feels far from everything, without being far from anything. Proximity to Long Point reservation is a real plus--a great beach for kids, with both ocean and pond swimming. The house is pretty, comfortable, and well-maintained. The owners are conscientious and easy to deal with. What more do you want? (PS, we're road bikers, and very much appreciated that the road, unlike many on the Vineyard, is paved. Plus the route to many destinations goes through the bike paths in Corellus forest.)

We have been fortunate enough to vacation here for the last six years, and it's a wonderful home in a great wooded location close to Long Point. It's well appointed and comfortable and has a great deck and yard overlooking a serene horse farm. The owners Elizabeth and Phil are very accessible and easy to work with.

We had the pleasure of staying at Elizabeth and Phil's house for 3 weeks, and we had a wonderful time. The house is located in a secluded neighbourhood, very close to the bike route and the forest. You can hear the planes as the airport is nearby, but it's not a nuisance. No cars around. In the evening the fireflies illuminate the trees around the deck. In the evening, the birds offer their soundtrack for your early breakfast. Our two teens loved the loft. Cathedral ceilings, open space that allows the whole family to communicate even when everybody is in a different room, we really enjoyed the house. It is simple, tastefully furnished, and comfy. Isn’t that what we are all looking for?

This is really a 2 bedroom house not 3. The 2 bedrooms are nice and spacious. There needs to be upgraded glassware, pots and serving platters. The step down from the deck is dangerous, it s too far. There was virtually no paper goods, bathroom tissue,soap, etc.

This home was perfect for our family of 4! Loved the close proximity to Long Point Refuge, and kids enjoyed riding bikes to the beach. The house was well equipped with everything we needed and kids enjoyed playing ping pong and hanging out in the loft! The deck was wonderful for both early morning coffee and evening dinners. Met lots of wild turkey in the yard on on the road:) The location was perfect -- easy travel to all the towns. Elizabeth communicated with us regularly and checked in when we were there. A great stay for our first time on the Vineyard!!

We had a peaceful and active time staying in West Tisbury. We were in a quiet home and only a short drive to the beach and kayaking and all of the great places of MV. We look forward to coming back in the fall. Our daughter had a chance to go horseback riding, and we went to many great and affordable places to eat.

Again, our family truly enjoyed our vacation on the Vineyard and a comfortable stay in your home! Many thanks again.

My family and I had a great time on vacation. Your house was perfect for us. My son loved the loft room. The ping pong table was also a hit. It was one of the best weeks we have had on the Vineyard in years. Your house was a huge part of it. We hope to stay again next summer. Thank you.

We really enjoyed our week at your house.....lovely place, so comfortable, very accommodating. One suggestion, no ESPN on basic cable so we had to run to local pubs for Wimbledon coverage. You may want to upgrade cable for those sports fans on rainy days. Hope to return next year.

Thanks again - we had a lovely holiday!

We had a great time (as always)! Looking forward to returning again next year.

Thank you for another great vacation!

We had a great time, the house worked well.

We loved the house and will keep your info on hand for next year!

This was our second year renting this home and if I won Megabucks, I'd offer the owners $$$ to buy it from them! I have rented several homes on the Vineyard that were not as pictured in their ads - this one exceeded my expectations!

It is a great house in a terrific location in a quiet, wooded neighborhood. It is a very comfortable, well-appointed home and has always been clean and well maintained. It has amenities one needs on a beach vacation including an outdoor shower and a washer/dryer.

The owners are very kind and easy to work with which we appreciate! Thanks for being a part of our vacation and memories!

We had another wonderful vacation on Martha's Vineyard. We look forward to vacationing there again next year.

Thanks so much, we enjoyed your home. I hope we may have the chance to return again next year.

We had a lovely time in your wonderful home. I hope to be in touch with you about reserving the house in 2011.

Once again we enjoyed the house. Thanks again.

Thanks so much for all of the conveniences. We had a wonderful time.

"What a wonderful stay we had! The house was clean and spacious, equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay (the laundry room and dishwasher were especially appreciated). The common living areas were perfect for gathering together to dine and play games but there were also lots of quiet nooks you could get away to. The yard was private and teaming with wildlife and the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We were able to get fresh eggs from a nearby neighbor each morning for our breakfast. We enjoyed many morning walks and bike rides; South Beach was only a short walk away. It was perfect! I hope to go back year after year."

"This is a beautiful, relaxing home in a very convenient location - the entire island is at your fingertips. Whether you want a relaxing day reading on the back deck, a day soaking up the sun at one of the nearby beaches, shopping in town, or biking around the island (access to the bike path is right at the end of the street!), this place has it all. I'm always blown away by the serenity of this home too: the sound of the ocean in the distance, the birds chirping, and the sound of the wind through the leaves are the perfect antidote to my relatively hectic life. The home itself is gorgeous: an open floor plan with plenty of sunlight, ample accommodations for cooking and entertaining, and incredibly comfortable beds. I intend to continue coming back here, and would recommend it to anyone!"

"We loved the private, woodsy setting with the herb and flower gardens. The house is comfortable and cozy, nicely furnished and well equipped. We enjoyed the open beach at Long Point, Seth's pond and frisbee golf at the state park, all close by . It's a leisurely drive into Oak Bluff, Vineyard Haven and Edgartown. We're looking forward to returning for our 7th year this summer."

"My husband and I love coming to the island and staying at your home in West Tisbury. We like the privacy and the sound of the waves at night. The location is perfect for us too because it is close to Edgartown and the ferry to Chappy. We like cruisin the back roads to the beach too. The garden makes for such a homey feel and we love the outdoor shower with the sun on your face. The road is nice too for roller blading. Thanks again and we are looking forward to coming back!!"

Another great vacation! Your house looks beautiful and your garden is growing. We look forward to vacationing there again next year.

Everything went great. We had a lovely time and look forward to returning again in the future.

"Our stay here was wonderful. The house is beautiful, very nicely equiped. Loved the privacy and the serenity!! The neighborhood was perfect for our early morning bike rides and early evening walks. Our stay was with 4 adults and 2 teenagers and the house fit us perfectly! The open design of the house let us easily all gather around the table for a game of cards or each find our own quiet space for watching TV, reading or just sitting and watching the birds on the feeder. The beaches are awesome there too! Can't wait to go back."

We had a great stay at your house, it is really wonderful. Thanks a lot.

As always we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation on Martha's Vineyard. We are already looking forward to next summer.

"My husband and I honeymooned at this beautiful home in June 2005. The home is spacious yet very intimate. Loved the wooded lot and the beautiful gardens surrounding the property. We enjoyed the large well-equipped kitchen. I made my new husband his first boiled lobster dinner and he made me great grilled steaks and chops on the outdoor barbeque! Plenty to see and do on the island. I would highly recommend this property to anyone."
