Was really looking forward to stay but owner did not show for my check-in! Rainy November afternoon, check in at 3:00 pm. Waited two hours after calling 2 numbers listed on Inn's entry table; no answer, left message. Just saying the Inn is on an island with limited accomodations especially in the late fall (and during Covid). Went to town while waited. Callled owner again around 5 pm having never received a call back; was getting pretty late and dark. Owner answered his phone this time: apparently he was off-island. Wierdest call; he put me on hold for a very long time while he was doing other business. No explaination nor any hint of apology. I was confused and bewildered as to what was happening. After not getting anywhere in regards to when he may return to the island, I asked to cancel reservation after I had him assure me I would not get charged. Later that night the owner left message on my phone; believe he had forgotten to write the reservation on his calendar. Wasn't seemingly apologetic: really (?) May I note that he had done a welcome / look forward to seeing you phone message shortly after I booked the reservation a few weeks prior. Luckily I have family ties to the Vineyard and a family summer home I could sleep, and thankfully the November weather temps were warmer than usual. I was lucky I was not an Island visitor as I would have been in a precarious situation. Worst possible customer service, especially, as I mentioned, am on an island!

Quick one night stay when stranded due to canceled ferry off the Island. Inn could use a refresh but Fred was helpful and kind and the bed was comfortable.

Convenient for Martha's Vineyard Marathon

I stayed here to go to the Martha's Vineyard Marathon. The location was very convenient- close to a convenience store, bus stop and about .7 of a mile from the pick up point for the shuttle to the marathon start. The room was very nice. Staff even let me do late check out on Sat after the marathon so I could come back and shower. I'd stay here again.

Heavenly weekend in Edgartown:

I loved my stay at this Inn. It was clean and lovely. Comfortable and charming. Big fluffy white towels. Wifi. Tea for the taking. The innkeeper, Fred, was friendly and helpful. My bedroom was charming and the downstairs was beautifully appointed. With a fireplace and antique art. Great atmosphere. An easy five minute walk to cafes and the harbor. Edgartown is one of my favorite parts of the Island. Lots of historic buildings, town Hall, big white churches, great shopping, a Lighthouse and a beach within walking distance. Grand homes, sail boats. A diner where you can get a sandwich for $8 and fine restaurants where you drop $40 if you want to. A total joy and great value! Thank you.

Great Island B & B

Very nice B & B within walking distance to everything in Edgartown. It's a nice walk into town (maybe 10 minutes) down Main Street. Room was cute and quiet. The building is dated 1860. Great service and the breakfast was limited but very good. Wish we had more time to just hang out in the living room where there was a fireplace for when it gets cooler.

Good location, in need of repairs

The owner was very nice/helpful and the location is a perfect 5 min walk into Edgartown. Unfortunately the place is in need of repair. Floorboard/paneling broken, door handle loose & door doesn't close tight without turning bolt lock, etc... Breakfast is ok, however, the staff didn't really know/understand what they were serving - just reading from the list they had. It's not horrible but there might be other options in town worth exploring.

Off season

Had a nice stay. Beautiful B&B. Was cold and rainy but the fire place made it warm. We went off season so breakfast was not included. Did not see staff too much because of offseason. Would have been nice if coffee and tea were available during the day and not just in morning.
