In town for a weekend wedding and the house couldn't have been more perfect. Location was ideal, close to the beaches and also a short walk to town. beautifully manicured yard and the house is perfect for a couple, family or friends. Communication was also excellent. A great place overall, highly recommend.

Beautiful and private little property
This truly was a perfect property for my husband and I to celebrate our 25th anniversary. It was beautifully and creatively decorated and extremely quiet/private. We didn't bring a car over and Ubers were always within 3 minutes of the property. A local bike rental place also delivered and picked up bikes right to the house, so we didn't miss our car at all. We just loved it!

Immaculate and lovely stop to stay in Nantucket.
The Little Dipper was exactly as advertised.....beautiful grounds and cottage (just as shown in the photos) in an excellent location. We had a relaxing and very comfortable visit. The cottage was well stocked and very clean. Traveling around the island and to/from the ferry was very easy using Lyft or Uber. Communication with the host was excellent. Gail's Tours (red van) is recommended.

Lovely Stay at Little Dipper
We loved our stay at Little Dipper! Very cute, clean and comfortable for our family of four. We loved the location, close enough to town to walk or take a quick uber but far enough to enjoy the stars and quiet. We hope to come back again soon!

Perfect Nantucket Cottage
The Little Dipper was a perfect Nantucket cottage for our family of four. The property and home are better than shown in the photos. Great location mid island with a short (less than one mile) walk or bike to town. Check in was seamless. We will be back for sure.

Gorgeous New England Barn-Style Cottage
This was an absolutely beautiful accommodation. We truly fell in love with the place. The contruction and maintenance of the cottage, and the manicured property itself, is exquisite. The cottage is modernly furnished with up-to-date appliances, furniture, bedding and kitchen supplies. The actual location of the property is very convenient and is walking distance to downtown Nantucket, plus it offers easy access to all other areas of the island. Highlight of our stay was seeing several Whitetail Deer in the adjoining farm meadow. Communication with the property owner/host couldn't have been better. They were always quick to respond and gave explicit details/instructions, and when we decided to extend our stay on very short notice, they were quick to help us. We will definitely return to this particular property next year, without question.

Best Getaway Close to Town!
My Fiancé and I stayed here for 5 days when I proposed to her at Brant Point. The 'Lil Dipper' was the perfect romantic, quiet getaway for us to have the best time in Nantucket. We used the beach chairs, towels, and cooler daily and enjoyed late nights watching our shows in the main living room. Also, it was great to have two separate bathrooms to get ready before our nights out downtown. I highly recommend this Vrbo for a couple looking for a romantic getaway in a great location on the island!
