Our 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage is perfect for vacationers who want to enjoy Nantucket the way the locals do. The cottage has over 1400 sq. ft. of indoor living space with a relaxing outside grass yard and is a non-smoking and animal free home. When you read our consistently fantastic reviews and comments from past guests you can feel confident when booking our special spot.
This vacation rental is best suited for solo travelers, 1-2 people who are friends, a mature couple or two couples vacationing together. Due to the size, configuration, property location and safety concerns the cottage is not appropriate for children and those with mobility issues may find it challenging. There is one queen sized bed in each of the 2 bedrooms and each bedroom will accommodate 2 adults sleeping in the same queen-sized bed. The bathroom is on the 1st floor. We maintain a smoke free and animal free home for the comfort of all our guests and make no exceptions. This cottage and neighborhood is not a party area and we have been pleased with keeping a low-key clientele.
The house has ultra-quiet, wall mounted air conditioning units, two large size bedrooms with queen size beds, comfortable mattresses and sumptuous bedding, tiled kitchen countertops, exposed reclaimed beams, pine floors and brick accent wall. We provide free, fast and secure Wi-Fi in the cottage and reaching out to the yard. The first floor has an open layout with one bedroom and bathroom downstairs and comfortable seating in kitchen and living room. The upstairs has sitting room with a 40'' TV and the 2nd bedroom, all with a great mix of furnishings from Nantucket’s local shops. There is a full, dry, clean and bright 400 sq. ft. basement with a washer and dryer for vacationers to use.
We are year round, on-island owners, Bob and Christine and have custom built this cottage. We live in our separate home on the property and use the same driveway that passes the cottage. We will welcome you to Nantucket and provide friendly insight to island living especially if you are a first timer to Nantucket. Whether you would like to celebrate a honeymoon, a babymoon (that great romantic fling before the little one arrives), a special anniversary, or just have time away from it all as a couple, our location in Tom Nevers East will be perfect for you. You will quickly make your own Nantucket memories!

Tom Nevers East is a well preserved island treasure: Delicious, pure well drinking water-no need for bottled water, abundant wildlife, natural beauty, non buggy side of the island, and our famous clear, night sky for stargazing. At our cottage you'll smell and feel the sweet green grass under your feet after taking your post beach rinse off in our enclosed outside shower. You’ll want to hang out in the yard, fire up the grill while sipping your beverage and listen to the pounding surf in the distance. Delight in the birds and bunnies and watch the unique light of the island as you enjoy the bounty from the gardens, farms and waters of Nantucket.
We hope you decide to ''Go Local'' and book with us in our vacation home for your relaxed island vacation and have yourself a full week of fun, food, sand, surf, shopping and sightseeing.
