About this cottage rental

Situated in Madaket, this lovely cottage for $1,000 per night is a great choice for your next trip. NOTE FOR 2024: The first two weeks of June remain available, and a longtime tenant has cancelled the third week of their stay in August (August 24-31). We use two weeks in August ourselves and otherwise rent all the July and August weeks to return tenants, so this is the first time we have had an August week open in several years. The Scallop is a beautifully furnished 3-bedroom oceanfront cottage on Smith Point, at the western tip of Nantucket. Out of more than 700 Nantucket properties listed on VRBO, the Scallop has been ranked at or near the top in the last four years. The house features stunning ocean views, a beautifully renovated kitchen/living area, extensive outdoor decks and easy beach access on a private path. Smith Point is prized for its tranquility, easy access to the water and amazing sunsets. The cottage faces the ocean to the west and faces the head of Hither Creek, a salt water inlet, to the south. It is about 300 feet from a beautiful surf beach and about three blocks from the calm Madaket Harbor beach. Our house is an easy walk (about 10 minutes) to Millie's restaurant and market, and we certainly have been known to head over there for a serving of ice cream, a carryout dinner to enjoy on our deck, or some other amenity. The living room has a beautiful ocean view and opens onto a second-story deck featuring a dining area with the same great view. Outside, on ground level, there is a patio with a teak table and chairs and a deck with outdoor chairs. The cottage also features a nice large flat lawn and an outdoor shower. The cottage is within walking distance of Millie's, a casual restaurant and convenience store, and a stop for the shuttle bus to town. The cottage is also close to the Madaket bike path, part of Nantucket's excellent network of bike paths. Nantucket offers world-class dining, shopping, golf, fishing and outdoor adventures. For kids, the island offers great day camps, sports lessons and other activities. You will love it! IMPORTANT SECURITY NOTE: If you are booking with us through VRBO, we will not ask for a direct payment or wire transfer of funds, nor should you make any such payment. For your security, you should pay through VRBO with a credit card. Keywords: House, Smith Point, Millie's, beach, oceanfront, water views

My family and I just returned from a wonderful week next to the beach at Madaket. Already wishing we were still there. Very chill, so relaxing. This home had all the amenities we needed. Tom was a great host with clear and timely communication. All around a very nice vacation rental.

We highly recommend this rental house. It is super comfortable with fantastic furniture including comfortable beds and couches. The house is bright and cheerful. The most amazing piece are the views. We have been renting in Madaket for 23 years and this house was beyond any doubt the best place to stay. Easy access to the beach and Smiths Point for sunset. Millie’s is great for dinner and a very short bike ride. The house had everything we needed and the owner was super responsive. We highly recommend this house.

What a wonderful property! Fabulous views of dunes and sea, bright and airy, perfectly equipped. One of my friends, who has been a realtor on the island for 40 years declared it her new favorite Nantucket house which is really saying something. The Huttons, our hosts, were responsive to our every need going so far as to buy martini glasses and a cocktail shaker when I inquired about it. All in all, a wonderful experience and we will return.

If you like being on the beach in a simple beach community that harkens back to what Nantucket used to be, this is a great place to stay. If you prefer to be in/near town and everything that comes with it or in high-end fancy/luxurious accommodations/locations, this is not your slice of life. If Smith Point works for you, this house is excellent. It is very clean and comfortable, well stocked with everything you need, only 50 yards from the crashing waves of Smith Point beach, which serenade you to sleep at night, and provides wonderful views of the ocean. Although the location is "Old Nantucket" because it is simple and not fancy, the house has modern furnishings, appliances, flooring and plenty of light. The hosts are top-shelf. They are responsive and a pleasure to deal with. There were four of us in our party and we had plenty of room. The house is an A+ Smith Point rental. Steven & Terry

The views were stunning and our three boys got to be boys. Very close to the beach and big yard. Loved our time in Nantucket.
