Pretty cottage on the edge of town
This cottage was perfect for our long weekend stay on Nantucket! It is about 1 mile from the shops and restaurants in Nantucket Town, which we could easily walk to. The owner also provided bikes which we rode to Bartlett Farms for the 1/2 marathon and Cisco Brewers afterward. The cottage was charming, had a large living and kitchen area and included all the amenities we needed. Perfect for our family of 4!

Wonderful place to stay in Nantucket and a great property owner
Sharon is very kind and promptly responded to all of our questions. The house is beautiful and relaxing to hang out in. When the weather from hurricane Ian blew into the island and shut down all the ferries, she graciously offered an extra night for free until we can get off the island the following day. I definitely recommend this property and would stay here when traveling to Nantucket!

Perfect Getaway
Our family of four (w/ teenagers) staying for a week in early August. It slept all of us comfortably. Kitchen allowed for us to make all of our meals in. The place was great and had everything we needed. Close to downtown (15-20 minute walk) and also within a short bike ride of the beaches. We used the beach chairs, umbrella, cooler and bikes very often. Just note that is shares a driveway with another rental property owned by the same owner. But the people staying next to us were awesome and actually made our time more fun. I highly recommend this place.

Lovely Property for Return Visit
We stayed on this property a few years go and returned again - our two children loved the 2nd bedroom being on the 1st floor and having their own space. The location is quiet but not overly remote (it's about a 10-minutes walk to town). Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a good location that's not too close to town (but close enough). We brought our car with us and found it was helpful for quick trips to the beaches and supermarkets.

Convenient home base for your ACK vacation
We enjoyed our stay at the Blue Crab Cottage. The home is convenient to town or either end of the island if you’re into exploring like us! Fully equipped and provided everything we needed for our stay. Sharon was wonderful to communicate with, as well. Not complaints, just a few things to note if traveling with kids: the bedrooms are on separate levels making it a little difficult with a young child. The road at the end of the driveway is dirt, so make sure you bring your jogger with big wheels if you plan to walk to town. The bones of the cottage are quintessential Nantucket. A few updates to the living room and bedding and and this will be a 5 star property!!

Perfect location
The cottage is perfectly located down a dirt road, just a short distance from town and an easy drive to all the best beaches. Sharon was extremely responsive and helpful with all my inquiries. I did have an issue with the washing machine but I am certain it will be fixed for the next guests.
