We stayed at Kathleen's house in late August - early September 2020 and had a wonderful experience. This was our first time both visiting the Vineyard and renting a house for vacation, and it well-exceeded our expectations.
The house was truly spotless upon our arrival, and more spacious than in the pictures... very comfortable for a couple. The porch and deck were great places to have meals outside and relax! The house is situated on a quiet cul-de-sac but still walkable/bikeable to Vineyard Haven. We enjoyed biking around West Chop and into town. Beaches are mostly a short drive away -- our favorite was South Beach, in Katama, -- and Kathleen has outfitted the property with great beach chairs, towels, sandcastle toys, etc.
One note of caution is that when we stayed, the house did not have A/C, so got a bit warm... there are window fan units and skylights that open which help though! I think A/C units may be available if requested in advance.
We'd recommend this property to couples looking for a quiet, convenient, and clean house to retreat to after a day exploring the island by bike or car!
As a note for traveling during COVID-19: the Vineyard is taking excellent precautions to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and we were very comfortable being out and about with our masks on. Mask compliance is very high and expected when walking around in the towns or on narrow trails. Restaurants have also adapted well for outdoor dining and takeout. This is a great place to stay and have a safe, clean, and relaxing trip!
