Great property and location

Excellent for three couples and room for some kids in one of the bedrooms.Weather wet and foggy for part of our stay but had fun anyway, and really delightful on the nicer days.Excellent recommendations from host- especially the recommendation for Bocca restaurant.Interesting factoid- Joshua Slocum made the first single handed sailing voyage around the world, starting from Fairhaven. The place he rebuilt his boat for the trip is marked in a park. Read his book!

Girls Weekend

Our annual Girls Weekend was another success! Who knew Fairhaven was so much fun! Gorgeous house, beautiful sunsets, beach located steps from the house, high end amenities, kitchen stocked with spices and gadgets….everything was perfect. Bill was great to communicate with and made sure our stay was a success. These hard working teachers, nurses and social workers will hopefully be back!

Beautiful Beach Home

If you’re looking for a weekend away in a beautiful home with an excellent host look no further! Bill was so easy to communicate with from the moment I booked his listing. Offering local restaurant recommendations and activities to do in the area. My family and I go away for a weekend each year in lieu of exchanging Christmas gifts and Bill’s home offered the perfect space for a weekend away to relax and enjoy everyone’s company. The table was big enough for all 8 of us and the living room was perfect for early morning coffee by the fire as well as late night games. The home is spacious and well kept with a well stocked kitchen! Thank you for a wonderful stay Bill, we hope to be back again!

Wonderful stay for Thanksgiving

We had a great time at this beautiful property over the Thanksgiving holiday. The pictures are spot on - it is a spacious, very well appointed and very comfortable home. The views, especially at sunset, are incredible. We were a family of 5 people - 3 generations- and we all had ample space. Communication with the owner was very easy and he was very responsive. We hope to come back again in the summer when we can take advantage of the beautiful balconey!

Great house and location

The house was perfect for our family and children. The outdoor space is amazing and there was plenty for the kids (kayaks, ping pong, chairs, toys, games, etc). The house was clean and had everything we needed - the kitchen was stocked with every pot/pan/utensil and there were plenty of towels and toiletries. Location is great and Bill was very responsive.

Magical House by the Sea

My family rented this house over the Christmas holiday to be near our relatives in the area. So much about this house exceeded our expectations - well stocked kitchen with lots of plates, silverware and pots/pans; comfortable, quality furniture throughout the house; well cleaned and maintained; large, easy driveway and a responsive, thoughtful host. And the views!!! So beautiful and peaceful. This group has rented a lot of houses together but we think this might just be our favorite.

Wonderful Stay!

Our family stayed at this home while in town for the Army vs. Navy game in December. The house was clean, warm and very welcoming. Communication from the owner was excellent as were his restaurant recommendations. We enjoyed the house and area so much we are considering a summer get-a-way there in the future to enjoy the outside patio and beach more. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Great stay...Beautiful views!

My wife and I stayed here off-season for 2 nights for her birthday weekend. The house was tastefully appointed and had an amazing kitchen. The bedrooms were generously sized, as were all the bathrooms. We had a lovely welcome card waiting for us, and the hosts were communicative through the entire process – even giving great recommendations for places to eat. The fireplaces were a lovely touch and added warmth and ambiance to our stay. One of the best surprises was the ping pong table in the garage! As avid players, we took advantage of it and had the best time. The sunsets were stellar and the views were incredible. If you love the water like we do, don't hesitate to book this gorgeous house! Fun fact: my wife wrote this entire review, but I enjoyed the trip as well!

Beautiful home and location

My husband and I booked this property off-season and really enjoyed our stay. The views are awesome and the house has everything and more you could be looking for to cook or entertain. There are so many thoughtful additions including almost everything you could imagine for the kitchen, as well as blankets in most rooms to snuggle up with and speakers both inside and outside the house to enjoy some tunes while sitting on the amazing wrap-around deck. We stayed in the master suite which had a comfy bed and I enjoyed the sitting area in that room to look out at the water. We had lots of great food options close by and Doordash delivers there if that is your thing. We took advantage of the nice weather and took a walk to Off the Hook Bar & Grill on the bridge to the island and really enjoyed a cocktail and the company. We would love to spend some time here again.

Extended family really enjoyed our stay. House was very clean and kitchen well stocked. Bill was a super responsive host. Highlights included sitting on the expansive deck with views of the water, being able to launch kayaks right from the house to explore coastline and estuaries, walking around the island and to the beach.

Fabulous House and Wonderful Views

My family, which included a 97 year old, loved this house and its surroundings. The roominess made it easy for her to get around with her walker. The views from the deck with great seating were nothing but spectacular. The house was immaculate with up-to-date appliances and the kitchen had everything we needed so we could eat in on a regular basis. Big refrigerator was greatly appreciated! The private beach as well as the town beach (beach pass was provided) on the island were both great--a novelty to walk out 30 feet from shore at low tide! The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet but shopping is close by, with very little traffic. The owner was easily in touch by text, and answered all of our questions in a timely fashion. He went the extra mile when I needed more information about how close the bathroom was to the first floor bedroom-very responsive and I very much appreciated it. Thank you for a great stay, Bill and Amy!

Sunset house

The location and view couldn’t be better. The house is elegant, comfortable and well-equipped. The owner was extremely responsible and helpful when the water to the neighborhood was shut off for water main repairs. He immediately arranged for bottled water to be delivered right to the front door. We had a wonderful week.
