About this house rental
6 BR, 4.5 bath beach house. Private beach on the South Shore of Nantucket (Madequecham Valley) provides maximum privacy in an area of few houses, surrounded by open and protected land, reached by dirt road. Right on the beach. Large deck less than 200 feet from the bluff. You can watch the ocean from the house. Gorgeous sunsets every night.
6 Queen bedrooms, 4.5 bath.
PS VRBO's map is wrong. VRBO map seems to indicate we are a mile from the beach, and says it's a 7 minute drive, but that's incorrect. We think VRBO is incorrectly pegging "beach" to the public beach nearby.
The spacious, light-filled, open floor plan hosts a modern kitchen, LR, and DR with fantastic views of the ocean. The DR opens to a very large, open deck overlooking the ocean, with two outdoor dining areas and sitting areas. 2025 Renovation. New lower level has high ceilings and lots of natural light from windows and a sliding glass double door, with large LR area and satellite TV.
Primary BR suite on 2nd floor has a private bathroom and office area, plus two private decks offering sweeping views of the ocean, moors, sunrise, and sunset. All 6 bedrooms have Queen beds with new, organic mattresses, new duvet covers. One BR has private doors to deck overlooking the ocean.
DR has new farmhouse dining room table and chairs. LR has newly upholstered furniture (please be careful not to spill on it, as we love the new patterns and they're hard to replace). LR and downstairs den have Satellite TV. Kitchen has a new (June 2022) refrigerator and washer-dryer; new (Aug. 2020) gas range, new tools, new cutting boards, new dinnerware, new flatware, new steak knives, new glasses, etc. Outdoor shower. New Weber charcoal grill (September 2025). Linens, beach towels provided.
Tenants may use owner's beach umbrellas, deck umbrella, boogie boards, and paddleboards, if careful.
Full unobstructed sky allows incredible nighttime star-gazing!
If you want peace, privacy, a gorgeous beach, and a natural setting, this is ideal. If you are hoping to be walking distance to shopping, then you might prefer to rent in town. If you aren't familiar with Nantucket, please realize that Nantucket is a rural community. For example, half of Nantucket roads are dirt roads (including ours) and they can be bumpy.
No Pets. Owner is allergic.
Check-in 3 p.m.; check-out 11 a.m. Early check-in or late check-out is sometimes possible, at a rate of $100 per hour, but only with owner's permission.
11.7% state tax not included on rentals less than 31 days. One week minimum rental. Discount for multiple weeks. Steep discount for monthly rental.
Beach steps are shared with neighbor.

If you are looking for a fancy modern house, then this house is not for you. If, on the other hand, you are looking for a clean, quiet house with a wonderful view of the ocean, then this house is for you. Our 5 day stay was very nice. When you drive there, make certain you take the dirt road close to VFW Post. The other option, recommended by Google Maps, is treacherous!

The house was lovely along with the location. My husband, myself and child had a wonderful time. The house was well equipped with plates and silverware, the gas stove was new, the beds were very nice along with the bedding. We loved the views of the ocean throughout the home.

We loved this place. The house is cozy and well-equipped. The beds very comfortable. The location is stunning; right on the bluff over the ocean and in a sparsely developed area with loads of wild green space. Great bike paths all over the island; do rent a bike and explore the island. Carrie is a very attentive and responsive host.
Do note there is no AC or wifi. We didn't need AC during our September stay. The cell reception is very good. There isn't much beach directly in front of the house, but the beach widens a short walk away. The beach access is a steep metal stairway. There is a mile or so of dirt road to get to the house, bumpy with a lot of washboard and you may get brushed by branches.

The views are everything you expect and maybe more. They are beautiful and expansive. Unfortunately we were the first visitors of the season and they didn't make much effort to ensure the property was properly ready. Found out coffee pot was cracked when cut my hand making coffee the first day. Spent an hour trying to figure out the Satellite TV situation to watch Celtics playoff game to find out that it wouldn't be turned on(for the season) till the next day. The refrigerator door would not stay closed so had to keep bottled water up against it. Need to strip and wash beds and towels (which is fine) except the dryer didn't work. It became very obvious that no one had bothered to check that the house was "ready" for guests. Carrie was very responsive to emails and sent handyman next morning with new coffee maker. He tried to fix fridge but couldn't so we continued to use water to keep closed. The owner mentioned in the reviews that the dirt road wasn't bad and she drove a Prius so we rented a Camry .....big mistake. Definitely need something with high clearance to safely navigate to the road. Allow 10 minutes to drive the less than 2 miles of dirt road. But if you are looking to get off the beaten path and enjoy the ocean, this may be for you.
