Wonderful property for 3 couples, 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths, comfortable common area with kitchen and dining. Nicely decorated & very clean. Private backyard with seating which allowed for easy bike storage. Great location for biking into town, about a 20 min casual walk into town.

Had a wonderful family vacation at 17 Quaker Road! The house was immaculate and cozy. Everything one needed to experience Nantucket and more was readily available. Bonus outdoor space with seating and dining areas and grill. Great communication with host, lots of island information, simple instructions for arrival and departure. Highly recommend these accommodations.

We've been going to Nantucket for years and loved staying at 17 Quaker. It was a great location to town and easy to get to the beaches, grocery store, the farm, etc. We'd love to stay there again.

We have rented houses on Nantucket for ten years. This was by far our favorite house. Michele the owner was very responsive and thought of every detail - including birthday candles in the kitchen. The house itself is charming and well equipped. The location is great - lovely walk to town and close to two bike paths- we will be returning!

Wonderful visit to this lovely cottage. Everything was extremely clean and fresh. Lots of comfy towels and even a welcome basket. Great location, easy walk to town. It was so helpful to have 3 separate bedrooms and bathrooms for our family of 5. Super responsive owner. We would definitely stay here again.

We visited 17 Quaker Road , a wonderful home in Nantucket. The furnishings were top notch: nice linens beds and well equipped for anything you needed. Good lighted areas for putting on makeup-good water pressure, and a delightful , well groomed back yard.
The owner, Michele , was a wonderful hostess and very helpful. The home is in a great location-an easy walk to downtown. We will definitely stay here again!!!

I hesitate to share my review of this amazing home in fear that the secret will get out and I won't be able to rent it again!
We stayed 3 nights with our our 2 sets of couple friends. The house is an enjoyable 1 mile walk to town with beautiful architecture and gardens to enjoy on the way.
The house has every possible amenity you might need. We ended up making dinner 2 of the 3 nights and had everything we needed- beautiful table linens, pots/pans, sharp knives, long stemmed wine glasses and a large comfortable kitchen table that seats six people.
There are scrumptous, warm blankets and even candles on timers that come on at dusk. The towels are high quality and thick and the bed linens look like high-end hotel linens. Every room has a heat pump, including the cottage.
My husband and I stayed in the small cottage included on the property which is about 8 feet away. We had our own kitchenette with coffee maker, tv, and bathroom.
I highly recommend this property and hope to go back one day.

Great property, spacious, central to all activities. The house is wonderful and Michele and Mike were great and very responsive. We had plenty of room for the 5 of us. It was so nice to be able to BBQ with the gas grill and enjoy the big backyard. Thank you for having us again.

We have rented homes in Nantucket for 15 years and Michele's home was one of the best. It is immaculately clean, very well stocked, feels like new. The kitchen had everything and more, lovely back yard, great gas grill, the a/c was wonderful and location superb! My husband and I went with our adult daughter and her husband. They slept in the guest house, so we all had enough privacy. I HIGHLY recommend 17 Quaker. Thank you Michele for a wonderful week!

We had a wonderful time as a family in this beautiful home.
The main house is lovely and the guest house is adorable.
This enjoyable home is stocked with everything you could possibly need.
It is a very comfortable place to come back to after a great day at the beach.
I have rented a lot of places and Michele as a host and the caretaker Mike were some of the nicest people I have come across.

Perfect Nantucket stay!
Look no further for the perfect Nantucket house rental! It is ideal for a small family or group of friends. The house itself is well stocked with everything you could possibly need for a short or long trip! It was spotless, comfortable and overall just so incredibly lovely. Lots of seating options to enjoy the backyard as well! We loved how close it was to town but also very easy to get to either side of the island. Michele is a wonderful host and has thought of so many details to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Cannot recommend this rental enough! We are looking forward to returning!!

We loved our trip to Nantucket this fall- few crowds, changing leaves, and crisp cool weather. A few favorites included two trips to Great Point (saw many seals!), golfing, walking/shopping through town, the whaling museum, Cisco Brewery, and dinner at Sea Grille.
We couldn’t have had a better experience with this home! The house is a short walk to town, so it is convenient and a car is not needed (but recommended for exploring the island!). It is well-decorated, updated, and incredibly clean. We had everything we could have possibly needed while we were there- kitchen utensils, gas for the grille, toiletries in the restrooms, laundry detergent, and so on. When we arrived, there was a fabulous welcome basket waiting for us. We all loved it and it gave each of us a piece of Nantucket to take home.
It was clear that the host, Michele, put a lot of thought into every detail to make sure her guests are comfortable. She is the most gracious host- incredibly attentive, accommodating, and kind. We had some questions prior to our stay in regards to trip planning and logistics, and Michele provided us with all of the information we were looking for and more- including recommendations for things to do and where to eat.
We can’t wait to come back soon! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

darling cottage and guest house
Impeccable is the word that comes to mind when describing Michelle's VRBO. Impeccable quality throughout, Impeccable taste. We wouldn't change a thing.....even the window boxes were welcoming.

Five of us stayed at the property for a wedding. Michele, the host, was beyond easy to communicate with. The wedding had been postponed for 12 months and she was she accommodating in the rescheduling. The home is so charming, clean, and spacious - e.g., the pictures are acurate. The only aspect to keep in mind is the home is on a very busy street and the drive way can only hold one mid-sized SUV. Also, there are not many sidewalks in this town so be careful walking around (e.g., rent a car). Overall, we highly recommend the home and Michele.

Everyone enjoyed their time and slept well. Renting was easy with the great communication and transparency from the owner. Property is nicely maintained with a beautiful private lawn and outdoor seating space. The kitchen itself was well equipped with the necessary essentials for cooking and dining. A unique aspect of the home is the private cottage with a kitchenette and a full bathroom, the three of us had plenty of space, ideal for families. The main house has two bedrooms with plenty of storage space, fresh linens, and natural lighting- one with a television and double bed, the other with a bunk bed, fitted above the storage cabinet and ideal for a small child, as well as a double bed. There’s plenty of information about the home onsite, self-explanatory. 17 Quaker Road is located a short walk to Main Street in town. Parking on the premise has room for a four door SUV, Jeep, etc. The house was the ideal space I personally needed for a long awaited return to Nantucket.

We loved this property from the moment we stepped inside. Such a great balance of feeling “tucked away”, but also so close to town and the bike paths. The layout was really great to give space to our guests and also have a large space to sit together! We will be back for sure.

Beautiful Property
The house was beautiful and incredibly well maintained. Michele was truly the best host — she’s communicative, welcoming, and left no details unturned. Everything from the linens to the furniture layout to the cabinets contents to the flower boxes demonstrate the thoughtfulness / organization of the owners and property management team. I’ve been renting on Nantucket for 10+ years and have never been so pleasantly surprised by a property.
The location is also perfect - a quick walk to town and easily accessible drive to the beautiful beaches and neighborhood the island has to offer.
We had my parents and in-laws split the stay in the guest house. Which allowed them some additional privacy and quietness - a huge plus!
10/10. Would recommend.

Our family enjoyed a great week at 17 Quaker. The location was perfect — a short walk to town and close to several bike paths. The house is very comfortable. It is nicely furnished and has a lovely outdoor area. It was clean and had all we needed, including beach chairs and plenty of towels. Michele was a terrific host. She was responsive to all of our questions and provided a great welcome bag. Thank you for providing us a wonderful base from which to enjoy Nantucket!
