What a gorgeous gem of a find on West Island! We loved Tina’s house - it was just as described. We also appreciated the welcome basket and plenty of Keurig cups for our morning coffee on the back deck. Sweet home, great amenities, near the town beach, and the outdoor shower was a huge plus.Tina was super responsive and very helpful. We would love to stay again!

This rental was a 10/10 stay. Me, my husband, and our 2 yr old spent a long weekend to get some beach time in and wow. First of all, the place was immaculate (and I say that as a toddler mom who's child is constantly playing on the floor -clean floors is a must!). The space was spotless & had everything you could need. The house is so close to the beaches, take a quick walk to enjoy the sunset at the north side beach, or a 2 minute drive down the road to the south shore beach which was a PERFECT beach for little kids. Clean, soft sand, ample space, minimal waves, & lifeguards. The location was fantastic, set in a quiet, safe, & friendly neighborhood but a short drive to the grocery store, restaurants, family friendly breweries, playgrounds, museums, you name it! Not to mention it was stunning to see the ocean, take in the fresh air, & see the beautiful planted flowers all from the kitchen table. I wish I had space to write more, we will definitely be back!

Absolutely loved the cottage! So beautifully decorated and so well-equipped. The view of the water was great and the landscaping was fantastic. Great petite kitchen!!! Perfect for our stay — grandmother, me, my two kids. We fought over who could hang out all day on the daybed. Plan to rent it again next year!

Super location! The views are outstanding. We happened to stay while there was high humidity, which took some getting used to if you're not accustomed. Thankfully there were plenty of fans in the home to keep the air moving. We love this area, and this home is simply lovely.

Welcome to your quintessential New England escape!
The Space
This rustic waterfront cottage is tucked away in the peaceful marshes of East Fairhaven, offering a secluded slice of paradise for nature lovers. Dripping with authentic beach-cottage charm, this is a place to unplug, unwind, and slow down. Please note: If you are looking for high-end luxury or a modern hotel feel, this laid-back retreat might not be for you. If you love old-school coastal character, you’ll be right at home.
The marsh is your backyard—perfect for spotting local wildlife or launching your own kayak or canoe. After a day of exploring, head up to the upper deck to soak in breathtaking views of Little Bay and catch spectacular, uninterrupted sunsets.
The Layout
Main Floor: An open, fully equipped kitchen, a dining room, full laundry facilities, and a cozy living room with two distinct seating areas (including a streaming-ready TV).
Second Floor: Three bedrooms and a full bathroom. The primary bedroom (Queen) and the second bedroom (Full) both feature window A/C units, while the cozy third bedroom (Full) is equipped with a fan.
Recent Upgrades We are constantly improving the property to ensure a comfortable stay. Recent updates include a brand-new stove, new leather recliner and loveseat, a refreshed custom shower, extensive yard and road cleanup, a newly built bridge over the marsh area, and professional mosquito and tick treatment for your comfort.
Dog-Friendly! Bring your four-legged best friend along for the adventure.
Guest Access: Guests have full run of the house, except for the shed and a locked closet behind the laundry room (used for owner storage). While the owners’ personal boats are not available for guest use, we highly encourage you to bring your own kayaks or canoes to launch directly from the marsh!

We had a very good time here! I travelled from Keller, TX with my family and were easily able to find the cottage. It is very private and quiet with easy access to the private beach. The house was stocked with essentials and we absolutely enjoyed it. For the price, I’d absolutely do it again. One important recommendation for all, make sure you understand THIS IS A COTTAGE. Let it come to you and you will have a blast. For the host I’ll recommend maybe more frequent mosquito control, we were around for about a week. It is about a 50 min drive to the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard, and to downtown Boston. Our only qualm was we struggled quite a bit with mosquito bites daytime and night time. Overall, we really had a great time, the host was super responsive.Thank you Tina for having us. We’d return any day.

This wonderful little cottage is perched on the water, facing sunsets, with light and airy views that actually just make you want to stay put and not go anywhere else! Easy to find, close to conveniences, and completely provisioned. It's clear the hosts have thought about everything we might have needed. We were there a week, and stayed in and cooked 3 nights, even though the New Bedford, Dartmouth, and Fairhaven areas have overwhelming dining options and it felt like our own kitchen. We prefer to visit places off season/shoulder seasons, and covet quiet. This home delivered. We're going back. Such a sweet little visit.If I have one complaint, it's that I wasn't smart enough to book it for TWO weeks!

We have stayed at Lovely Day for four years—it has always been a privilege to spend time here. Over the years our kids have grown up spending a week on West Island, and it’s been a blast. There is just enough to do to keep everyone occupied, but not so much that it is a tourist destination. We look forward to many more years of stays here. Thank you for being a gracious host, Tina!
