The Pinkletink

Full of classic island charm and beautiful views of the surrounding brush and wetlands, this authentic Oak Bluffs cottage offers the quintessential Martha's Vineyard experience. Walk or ride your bikes into town and to Inkwell Beach, and be greeted back at home by a serene setting you won't find anywhere else.
Named for the island's tiny frogs that mark the arrival of spring, The Pinkletink sits on a quiet, one-way street that backs up to protected wetlands. Take in views of nesting birds and native vegetation as you sip your coffee in the mornings, before getting ready to walk less than half a mile to Inkwell Beach. Also within a one-mile stroll are the ferry terminal, the Flying Horses Carousel, the shops and restaurants of Circuit Avenue, and a number of lovely town parks.
Come home from a day at the beach to unwind in the backyard, relax with a good book and a cold drink, and light the gas grill for an afternoon barbecue. There's even an outdoor table and chairs, so you can dine in the fresh ocean air as the sun begins to set.
The interior is incredibly atmospheric, with richly hued wood paneling adorning the walls. Yet the space is also newly furnished and thoughtfully renovated, with the kitchen offering a new refrigerator, a new sink, new flooring, and new quartz countertops. Enjoy a living room with a smart TV, an air-conditioned sun porch where you can play board games by the window, and complimentary WiFi throughout the cottage.

Classic Beach Cottage
Classic Martha’s Vineyard beach bungalow with some extra comforts. This place was perfect for my partner and I who appreciate simplicity and classic style. The house was cozy and well equipped with everything we needed to cook for ourselves and relax. The house is a very short walk from ink well beach and from all the various downtown offerings of oak bluffs. It’s also very close to the historic cottage village and we loved taking evening strolls around the area. I recommend the house to couples who want a quiet retreat and a peaceful little headquarters.
