Amazing Host, AMAZING HOME
We were in Nantucket for my son’s wedding and can’t imagine a better place to stay. Cheryl is a thoughtful and considerate host. She made us excited to stay in her home before we even arrived. The house is gorgeous, immaculate and stocked with everything you can possibly need. Wonderful home!

Loved this house!
We had an amazing 4 night stay at Cheryl and Peter's place in October and we were so so happy with everything! The house is immaculate and has so many great amenities! (Think three different coffee maker options and more!) The house also is the perfect walking distance to town and to our favorite sandwich place! We were sad we couldn't stay longer! Hope to be back again!

Cheryl your home is a DREAM
I can’t say enough about this property. Starting with Cheryl - we had a large group traveling to the island for our wedding. It was nearly impossible to find a home that fit us all comfortably on the dates we needed. Cheryl was beyond accommodating and made sure to make it work for us. The home is exactly how it is photographed. It’s clean , cozy but perfect for large groups , we had every room filled and it never once felt like we were on top of each other. We will absolutely be staying here again in the future! If you are considering this home, DO IT. It’s the perfect Nantucket dream house :)

About the host

Hosted by Cheryl Barnes

Host profile image
Peter and Cheryl Barnes, who were married in Nantucket, are the authors of the island's favorite children's book, “Nat, Nat the Nantucket Cat" -- the inspiration for the name of their home - and other books. It all started in 1992, with the story of a wild cat named Willie who lived on Straight Wharf. Peter was a Washington-based journalist whose parents had moved to Nantucket in the 1970s. At Mitchell’s Book Corner one day, he noticed there were no children's books about Nantucket. He proposed to Cheryl that they write "Nat, Nat," and a year later, the book was in local stores--and a bestseller. “It's so gratifying to see our books and characters come to life for families," Peter and Cheryl said. As an author/illustrator team, they have produced more than a dozen more children's titles. The Barnes's have two children and four grandchildren who love Nantucket as much as they do.

Why they chose this property

It is located on a quiet, safe street off North Liberty, approximately midway between Cliff Road and West Chester Street. Great for families. Town is a short 10-minute walk, with access to all of Nantucket's wonderful shops, restaurants and activities. Steps Beach is a 10-minute walk across Cliff Road, and Jetties Beach, with outdoor dining and public tennis courts, is an easy 15-minute walk. The Westmoor Club and Something Natural are around each corner. The property is in a great location for people who like to bike, with the Cliff Road bike path around the corner. Nantucket's network of other bike paths are easy accessible as well. Public golf courses are short drives away, as are Nantucket's natural sites.

What makes this property unique

Consistent 5-star reviews on VRBO/Homeaway. Home was designed for families, with separate, special spaces for adults and children. It is a walk away from Nantucket's lovely beaches and town. The media room in the lower level is a great gathering space for kids. The large living room, outdoor deck and patio are wonderful spaces for adults to relax and families to gather. The house offers every amenity, and enjoy a stroll to town, with its wide range of restaurants, art galleries, shops, museums and other attractions. Jetties Beach, which is great for families, is a short walk, drive or bike ride, as is Children's Beach. Other popular beaches are a quick drive.
