Great cottage in Natucket
The cottage was perfect for our vacation. There was ample parking, plenty of room, and everything was as advertised. We cooked in every night and were happy to find a kitchen with plenty of cookware and utensils. The home had everything we needed to be comfortable. The perfect Nantucket cottage and would stay again!

Oasis in a friendly neightborhood
We utilized the beach path every day of our visit - the ocean water temp was in the mid/high 60's. The Wave is running free this year. It turned out it was easier to NOT use our car! The house had all the accommodations we could desire and zero shortcomings. Thank you to our host!!

7 Ridge Lane
Location is super. The beach path to 40th Pole is right there; the kids and I walked it while their parents could drive right onto it. The neighborhood was safe for them to ride their bikes throughout and they loved having access to the tennis courts. Having the bus stop right at the end of the road was so convenient. Mark was right to call it “Happy Place”.

The Perfect Beach House
This was the perfect house for our family's Nantucket vacation. Great location, plenty of room, beautiful views! Walk/bike to the beach. Easy access to bike path, which we used a lot.

This was our third stay at Special Place. Mark is an amazing host, the house had everything we needed for a wonderful Nantucket week. Most important to us , the location is just perfect, in beautiful Madaket , steps from bike path and minutes to beautiful beaches , in a quiet neighborhood, with a lovely very private deck -perfect for morning coffee or sunset cocktail. A week is never enough :)

Perfect Nantucket location
Another wonderful stay at Special Place. We absolutely love the quiet Madaket neighborhood, right near the bike path and just a short walk through the dunes to a beach . We loved morning coffee and dinner on the very private deck overlooking the beautiful surroundings with a view of Long Pond . The house has everything you need and Mark is a wonderful communicator, answering any questions promptly. We hope to return again soon !

Family vacation
We had a wonderful week at Special Place . Mark was a great communicator and answered all our questions very quickly. Our extended family of seven was very comfortable in the four bedrooms. Absolutely loved the location , quiet neighborhood , close to the bike path and a lovely short walk through the dunes to one of the north facing beaches . Only thing that would have been helpful is a bigger table on the deck. We ate almost every meal outside on the wonderfully private deck which was great except there is only a small table that fits about four people . And there were only a few kids sized bikes available for most of the week , several adult size bikes were dropped off towards the end of the week . But overall a wonderful place to stay with everything you need to go to the beach . Very sad to leave !! Thanks for everything Mark!

Truly Someplace Special
We all fell in love with Someplace Special. It came well equipped with everything we could need and I will sorely miss that deck! We loved beautiful, quiet, and restful Eel Point (always a beautiful day in the neighborhood!), walks to the often private local beach, the many gorgeous and family friendly beaches, and pretty much everything else in Nantucket. It was the perfect family getaway for our family consisting of three generations. It truly is aptly named Someplace Special. Thank you, Mark, for sharing it with us. Anne Curry
