The roof terrace to this cottage is fabulous, wonderful views. And direct access to the water, although shallow and stony is also great. But the cottage needs updating in the bathroom, kitchen and air conditioning to enable it to live up to its promise.

We spent a week at the rental in mid-July. It is a charming little cottage, perfect for two or a small family. A few steps from the beach, we spent most of our time on the deck accessible via a spiral staircase. Most notable was the decor of thhe home. The owner is an artist and the home is decorated with her beautiful paintings nearly everywhere you look. The house also is well stocked with many supplies you don't know you need until you need them! Hope to stay here again in the future.

Our family of four rented this cottage for two weeks. We know the general area quite well, but had never spent much time in this particular corner of Fairhaven. We loved it! Our stay consisted of day trips around the area to see friends and family interspersed with downtime at the cottage. This cute little house has been thoughtfully furnished and decorated to optimize a small space. Well-placed mirrors give the impression of greater space in tight quarters. The porch and roof deck are particularly great and that's where we spent the majority of our time at the house. My children (6 and 8) especially loved being able to roll out the door to the small beach beyond to dig sand and hunt shells and hermit crabs; I loved being able to sit on the roof deck enjoying the view while still having one eye on them as they played by the water. The many fences, trellises and pergolas around the property are both lovely to look at with their gorgeous vines and flowers, but more importantly, they add a creative and well-planned element of privacy to a cottage that is really RIGHT on a public boat launch parking lot. One item of note: we were here during the 4th of July, and there was a LOT of fireworks activity in the parking lot for several nights book-ending the holiday. Speaking for us, I found it kind of amusing (my husband, maybe a little less amused by the third night), and our kids sleep like rocks once asleep, so ultimately, it was no biggie. However, if late night fireworks right outside your door would be a significant bother to you, I'd recommend that you take a pass on the week of July 4th! Overall, a fun stay for us in a lovely little cottage!

This property is in a great location. Right on the water. Fun to watch the people on the beach and the boats going in and out of the water. A great deck over the house.

This is a quaint cottage with a sunroom and rooftop deck for extra space. There’s quick access to a very small beach on sunny summer days, the adjacent parking lot can get a little lively, but it simmers down after Labor Day. It was a great location to take day trips to Providence, Newport, Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, Caoe Cod, etc.

This property is a beautiful little cottage by the water. Absolutely enjoyed every minute of my stay.

We had a wonderful week enjoying the breezes on the porch, with easy access to the Cape and RI. The cottage has character and is clean and thoughtfully decorated. Some of the ceilings are quite low, but my husband is 6’10” and was able to work with it - and that’s part of cottage life! The little beach out front was good for morning beachcombing with our four year old, and the boat ramp provided ample entertainment. Loved the little garden, outdoor shower, and deck. A lovely spot to relax!

Best sunrises I’ve ever experienced! Beautiful views of the water from the sunroom and the upper deck! The cottage is tiny, but very functional. Wish there was more to do within walking distance.

Loved the place . Location is perfect. A quiet gem. Live entertainment at the boat ramp. Great area to bike ride and kayaking in the bay . Fishing business in Fairhaven is busy. We’ll be back next year.

We had a wonderful week at this lovely little cottage. It was small but had everything we needed and was thoughtfully designed. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. We loved the roof terrace and spent a lot of time there and on the beach, just steps away. Fairhaven is a great place with a lot of restaurants, and this was a great stay.

We had a wonderful time with our 4 and 1 year old this week. They loved playing in the little beach out back, which was perfect for their age. The cottage was cute and cozy, everything we needed for the week. Thank you!

We enjoyed our week at this quaint beachfront cottage! The rooftop patio and ocean access were great perks as was the sun room. Additionally, the location by a beach parking lot gave accessibility to local fireworks celebrations and visitor access.

Our recent trip to Fairhaven was great. Not only was the cottage perfectly situated right next to the water but it was also centrally located for day trips to Newport, the Cape and Plymouth. You are next to the public boat launch and parking lot but it wasn’t an issue at all. People often come there to sit and stare at the water and occasionally you get someone race through the lot but it was not bothersome. This is the prettiest little cottage. New England to a tee. The landscaping and decor our exactly as pictured. Just lovely all around. Suzanne, your artwork is beautiful and really adds such a homey feel to the cottage! While cottage is small, every inch of space was carefully planned and utilized. The two bedrooms provide space in dressers for clothes. You will not be able to live out of your suitcase if that’s what you like to do. The queen bedroom does not have space for that but the room with twins has a large closet to store your bag. We weren’t completely sure what the kitchen and bathroom were going to be without pictures posted so I’ll describe. Bathroom is a typical 3 piece. It is an average size but note: if you are tall people like we are, showering is a challenge. The shower head is low. (Remember, you’re in a cottage) It works great and is efficient but you’ll need to bend a bit to rinse your hair. Kitchen is tiny. Dual bowl sink where you can wash dishes and let dry. Counter space is limited. There is a full-size frig, small microwave, toaster and coffee maker. There are some pots and pans, utensils, silverware, plates, and glassware. The stove is a four burner but is a smaller scale. Cooking dinner for four would be a bit challenging but doable. The addition of chef’s cart was a plus to store our snack and things. During our trip we had temps in the 90’s and high humidity. The air conditioner was put to use later in the week but the bedrooms have window fans which kept the place comfortable. The 3 season room is spectacular. We put the screens in and enjoyed the breeze. Bring bug spray if you plan to be by the water as dusk approaches. We are still battling our bites. We lost to the bugs. All in all, I highly recommend this cottage.

My husband and I had a lovely time at the cottage. If you are looking for a "comfy" place to enjoy the water view, this is it. A few more towels would have been nice, but overall a great place.

Perfect for a couple or small family. We loved being right on the beach yet having privacy. Having a yard was nice too. Roof deck and sun room are fantastic spaces. Cottage is artistic both inside and outside. Shopping and restaurants and other beaches nearby.

This was a great fit for me and the wife. We spent the month of November 2019 and it was fun and relaxing.

The cottage is really cute, very thoughtful use of the space. We really enjoyed people watching, though that is the reason I only gave 3 stars...not a whole lot of privacy! On the plus side, if you're a biker the house is close to the many bike paths in the area, and easy access to the town beach which is beautiful. Overall, a really relaxing week!

Thoroughly enjoyed the top deck. We had great weather for August. So the ocean breezes almost made me ok without air conditioning. (I guess I’m a bit spoiled).

We had a wonderful time staying at Suzanne’s property. The house was very cute and quaint and the perfect size for our young children.

Everything was wonderful

Great cottage for the 2 of us right on a small beach popular with locals. There’s also a boat launching ramp which was always busy with the locals as well. Nice views across Buzzards Bay, plenty of Ospreys and other wildlife to entertain us. Especially wonderful to watch sitting or sunning yourself on the upper balcony deck. The house has all you need really for a relaxing vacation and there’s many local seafood places to eat or shop for yourselves. Locals say the area is a hidden gem and we can certainly agree with them.

My family and I stayed at the cottage for one week. We absolutely loved everything about it. The views from the deck and sunroom are both amazing. Sitting with our coffee or a glass of wine just enjoying the scenery was so relaxing. The cottage is decorated beautifully. We loved the beachy feel and the paintings. We had one rainy day while visiting but it was so cozy and welcoming in the cottage that we had a great time staying in and playing games. The garden is also beautiful and adds a feeling that you are the only ones around. The kitchen is well stocked so we were able to cook anything we wanted if we chose not to go out. Our daughters had a great time playing on the little beach. We also visited West Island beach once and the girls loved the sand there. We visited everywhere from Plymouth to Provincetown and all drives to those locations were easy and none were terribly far. This was our first visit to Massachusetts and we definitely cannot wait to visit again! Thank you so much for such a beautiful place to stay!

We had a very nice vacation at this cottage. Loved the upper deck and sitting by the water. Fairhaven is a lovely town - who knew?

Was lovely, made you feel like you were the only ones on that bay!
