The location is absolutely fabulous and our stay was equally so. The views were gorgeous. The beds were extremely comfortable and the living room was spacious with a stunning view from the bay window. The beach we visited, Little Harbor, included in the beach was incredible, being able to walk out what seemed like hundreds of feet into the bay.Plenty of local restaurants within 10 minutes with delicious New England cuisine. Our host was helpful, responsive, and a delight to communicate with.

We had a great stay at Bay Breeze. The views were breathtaking and house was equipped well. The dock is brand new and absolutely gorgeous. Had a great time clamming and hanging out at the beach and were able to do so at the beaches that honor the provided beach pass! Would highly recommend a stay here!

This is an adorable old school cape bungalow. Amazing view of the water and saltwater marshes. The new dock is very nice. Neighboring docks have boats around 22-26’ long. Could potentially access by water. There are no canoes, kayaks or SUPs so bring your own. Perfect spot for this. Absolutely beautiful area to explore in a self propelled boat! The beds are comfortable. The shared living space is nice and large. Screened in porch perfect for coffee in the morning. The neighborhood is very quiet. The neighbors are very nice too.

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!

iwant to state i never actually stayed here i arrived and left within 5 mintues of entry. there were several issue but the most important one was that there was water leaking from the first floor ceiling the carpet was wet and stained and the entire house smelt. it all looked like a long standing issue and im boggled by the good reviews. i never went upstairs but my husband did and the ceiling there were also damp and water stained. maybe it was a bad winter for the house but it felt straight up from a horror movie when we arrived. We were worried about fleas for our dog the ceiling dripped on my husband and we went to the nearest hotel. Hopefully the host actually goes and fixes the issue and properly cleans the home. when i called upon arrival( we were locked out) they stated they had other rentals i hope those are maintained better

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.

We have rented this location multiple times from Tina. She is a great host, readily available with any questions or concerns. She offered a list of things to do in the area as well as local restaurants and shopping. We had a great visit to the Whaling museum and the military museum near by. The house is in a great location with beautiful views of the bay from the sitting area and yard space. Patio furniture very comfortable to watch the sunset from. Plenty of supplies available to cook or clean up after yourself. Beach towels/bath towels and linens available for our use. Games and toys available to keep you busy on a rainy day or when winding down in the evening. We will be back again next year!

This was our third time staying here! The house and yard with beach access are great for our young kids. They had so much fun running around the lawn and playing in the sand. The town beach at the end of the road is a great option for additional beach time. We hope to be back!

If I could give Lovely Day 100 stars I would. The house was immaculate and SO adorable. Perfect for my family of four with two small children. The house came with linens and towels, cleaning supplies, and beach chairs and toys. The private beach was so incredible, we never even checked out the bigger beach although we did have a pass to use if we wanted to. We were often the only ones on the beach and found HUGE shells. Tina provided recommendations of restaurants to go to or order, there was an ice cream shop walking distance, and the neighbors were incredibly friendly. Tina always responded immediately with any questions. We will absolutely be booking again!
