Staying at the Josiah Keith house feels like getting to visit distant relatives in their own home back in time. at the Keith, you’re encouraged to lounge downstairs in an early 18th century house. It’s also a museum where historically accurate restoration is their main concern. the house has lots of furnishings and artifacts that were original to the house. some things are still being worked on just like an uncle or a cousins house would be. here that’s part of the charm that you are let into the intimacy of daily life with your relatives. the upstairs bedrooms share a bathroom which for us was fine. the breakfast prepared with love by the innkeeper with real culinary experience and apparently skill. It’s a wonderful gift to all of us when history can be made this accessible to so many. we enjoyed ourselves.

Parking was not easy. It was advertised as free parming and the explanation made it seem simple enough but finding free street parking in the area is not easy and you co stantly have to move your vehicles.

This was a very clean and well-looked after property, and the staff went out of their way to check everything was in order.

It was an amazing relaxing place. Very family friendly

A day or two after booking the room I called to ask if we could check in early. The staff member I spoke with stated that she would need to confirm with her manager but that if I did not hear back from them, we would be able to check in early. Upon arrival, I was informed that there was no indication that we were flagged for early check in, and that there would have been an additional charge to do so if we had been. To his credit, the manager attempted to accommodate us but was unable to as we needed to leave before our room would be ready. He did offer to let us leave our bags near the front desk. When we returned after normal check in, I found our bags in the lobby, It would have been a nice touch to have had them brought to our room. The room was a strange configuration. It appears to have been converted from a prior configuration and had three entry doors. It was clean but oddly decorated with hats on a wall and it was an accessible unit with a handicapped shower. There was a wall thermostat that did not seem to control the AC vents but there was a window unit that worked adequately. The bathroom exhaust fan did not work. This property served it's purpose as a place to stay before catching the morning ferry to Martha's Vineyard. I might consider returning for that purpose but would not recommend it as a destination.
