"I’m not going to say any good things about this place because I want it to be available next time I need to stay on Nantucket!! …no seriously though, this place was gorgeous, comfortable, peaceful, and the host was awesome and super available to communicate. There-s the coolest loft, annd there are many interesting sleeping quarters throughout the property. And the many outdoor decks give each area a great private yet bucolic area to enjoy.

"This hotel is so quaint and in the loveliest area of Nantucket with so much natural beauty. We stayed in the main part of the inn (we booked late so not many room choices). Room was small but well done. Turndown service with cookies every evening. Gorgeous porch, lawn and dock area. Loved every minute."

Longtail Cottage

"The house was awesome - it's cozy, beautifully designed, and stocked with everything you could ever want. We loved being in Tom Nevers and appreciated the serenity of the neighborhood and enjoyed biking or driving to the nearby beaches. John is a fabulous host - he's responsive and kind. I highly recommend his home!"
