"The Carousel House" - Ocean Park - Featured in New York Times

This house, built in 1865, was featured in the New York Times article on Oak Bluffs, 'The President Was Here (Grant, That Is).' The article described the unique Victorian homes on Ocean Avenue as 'the Fifth Avenue of Oak Bluffs.' Our house was featured in the article, and photographed in the New York Times online slide show. It is a unique Victorian home, wonderful for family gatherings. The location is ideal - it sits at the heart of Ocean Park, with the closest access to Circuit Avenue of any of the homes on the Park.

The home has been completely renovated, including central air with two zones. Chef's kitchen with granite countertops and stainless appliances, a six burner commercial oven and a wine fridge. Bathroom sinks have marble tops. Four flat screen TVs.

This house has unique charm and convenience. Walk to everything - you don't need a car. The child friendly beach is just across the road, where you can make sandcastles in the sand, or stroll along the boardwalk above the beach, and rest on a bench facing the water. Or stay at home, sit on the porch and gaze over Ocean Park with its iconic gazebo. Have your own private front seat to the concerts and fireworks in Ocean Park during the summer.

It takes about 60 seconds to walk to Circuit Avenue and access the heart of Oak Bluffs: restaurants, quaint shops, art galleries, grocery store, wine and liquor store, hair salon, movies, ice cream parlors, churches, etc. Pick up the bike path from just in front of the house and ride around the island (bike rentals just a short stroll away). Visit the Flying Horses, the oldest carousel in America dating back to the 1800s, just a couple of short blocks away. Take a stroll to the harbor, and see the beautiful yachts docked there. Fly a kite in Ocean Park.

On rainy days, walk just yards away to the movie house, or entertain the kids in the arcade on Circuit Avenue, a 90 second run in the rain! Or stay home and watch movies on the big TV in the living room, or play a board game of Monopoly or Scrabble. Or lose yourself in a book from our small library.

Entire downstairs has hard wired speaker system that you can connect to your phone or tablet, and play your own music.

Be sure to wake up early at least one day of your vacation to catch the breathtaking sunrise over Nantucket Sound, easily visible from the two master bedrooms!

Fun Fact: The Emperor of Ocean Park, the New York Times best seller murder mystery, was written about this house. Read the book before you come, or on the porch while you are here, to relive this home's iconic history. We keep a couple of copies of the book in our bookcase for you to check out while you are with us.

The trip was phenomenal. We didn't all know each other but have made lifelong connections. The house was the perfect size and location. Beautiful kitchen. We met many locals who came in to chat and took info to possibly rent the house too. All communications with management was easy. We had no negative issues at all. A couple of drawbacks - steep stairs for women of a certain age with bad knees and hips and strange configuration of rooms upstairs above kitchen. Had to pass through rooms to get to shared bathroom. Score still nearly 10. Great experience.

Rejuvenation and peaceful….location
We were a group of five besties, one stayed behind due to illness. . Our stay on Oak Bluff at the Carousel House was awesome from initial coordination with our Host, to saying goodbye to the neighbors next door. We each had our own comfortable room and plenty of lounging room around the house. The view of the Atlantic Ocean from the porch and bedroom balconies were PRICELESS!! I asked my group to give me a word to describe their experience and they were very similar; Rejuvenation, peaceful, accommodating, historic, and LOCATION!!!!!! We were a stones throw away from the ocean, Inkwell Beach, great shopping, best restaurants, and the Ferry! We can’t wait to book our next trip!!!!

My Vacation Stay at the Carousel House
My Friends and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for the Seven days. The House is beautiful and the location is prime. It is walking distance to all the Stores and Restaurants and it is right across from the Beach and a beautiful Park. Teresa and Justina were easy to communicate with. I would Definitely stay there again!

Simply Outstanding
The Carousel House is simply an outstanding luxury home to stay in for that quintessential Martha's Vineyard experience. My family of 3 and I had the most enjoyable stay here at the end of the summer. The house is a true five star experience - and I'd call it relaxed luxury. All the rooms are so well kept and beautifully decorated. It was super clean and we immediately felt at home. The location on Ocean Drive is unbeatable for convenience and access to everything we needed - cool restaurants, shops, art galleries, gingerbread cottages, the Flying Horses carousel and the beach. From our bedroom windows we had the most breathtaking views of the park and the ocean about 3 minutes walking distance. I spent my mornings on the porch watching the spectacular sunrises over the ocean and most afternoons on the same porch enjoying sundowners and reading a book. Teresa is an excellent host. When on one day I mistakenly messed up the television, I called and within minutes a very kind and professional caretaker arrived and sorted our cable issues. Traveling with a 15-month old toddler meant we prepared most of our breakfast at home. The kitchen is a true functional chef's kitchen. Thank you so much for a beautiful Martha's Vineyard experience in a historic but relaxed luxury home.

Location, Location, Location. The best location in Oak Bluffs. Minor hiccups-faulty door knobs and latches, (property mgr Omar was very responsive), code box with key a little tricky but workable. An extra bath would have been nice for 9 adults, but again it was workable. If your group has leg issues or 55+, the stairs may be a challenge. All bedrooms are on 2nd floor. Sofas need updating for comfort but workable. This property accomplished our goal. Reuniting and connecting with friends. Spending some quality time in a great destination. Overall we had a great time. Thank you Mary and the other 8 members of 9 United Visions

Lovely stay
We saw the previous review just before we left, but happily there was no reason to be concerned. Pros: 1. The location was great. The house couldn't be better situated to everything we wanted to do in Oak Bluffs. 2. The kitchen was truly a chef's kitchen - huge and well appointed. 3. The porch! We spent hours on the porch. 4. Teresa and the caretaker were highly responsive and made sure we were happy. 5. House was clean as a whistle. 6. Parking pass (wonderful to be able to park on Ocean Park and leave the car there with no concern about getting a ticket) 7. The house has an amazing history. We love staying in places with stories. There is a write-up from the family that owned it long ago, and a book written about the house. My sister-in-law enjoyed reading the novel on the porch as we were the Emperors of Ocean Park for our stay! Cons: We had to leave. Wish we could have stayed for the rest of the summer!

Downtown Oak Bluffs property
My mom had always dreamed of staying at this property so when I saw it listed on VRBO I couldn't wait to stay here on our annual MV trip. The property is located right on the Oak Bluffs green which is great. However, one thing to note is that on Friday and Saturday nights it gets quite loud when the bars empty out. The noise didn't last long but it will definitely wake you up. To be expected given its downtown location. The other nights were not loud. Pros: -Great Downtown location -Historic gingerbread home with lots of MV character -Large home with lots of beds to accommodate a large party -Great porch to sip morning coffee or drinks and enjoy all things MV -Air conditioned -Very nice grill -Owner was responsive to issues we had during our stay -During booking, the Owner was very understanding and allowed us to postpone our trip due to Covid 19 -Lovely welcome note and gift upon arrival Cons: -The layout upstairs is quirky requiring one of the bedrooms to cut through the other to get to the shared bath. Main bath has three doors leading into it - just need to be diligent with locking and knocking before entering. -No outdoor table. The dining room seats like 10-12. We were just used to enjoying outdoor meals on vacation. -Oven did not work (owner gave us a $100 credit for this and did buy a toaster oven which was very nice but we typically make certain meals involving an actual oven) -Door knobs and some locks were not working (maintenance did come and fix the front door quickly) -Couches in living room are dirty. We covered them with a sheet while we were there -Overall cleanliness when we arrived was just ok -Parking is a challenge. The house comes with one parking pass which is nice but it is tough to find a spot. It often means driving around or parking far away from the house if you opt to venture out. -Owner is withholding a portion of our security deposit and claiming damages to her ceiling. Hoping this an isolated incident to me but including it here so other renters can be sure to take pictures of everything upon arrival.

Beautiful House in the Heart of Oak Bluffs
We had a wonderful stay at the Carousel House in Oak Bluffs! The owner Teresa was very responsive to any questions we had. The house overlooks Ocean Park, which was great for the kids. Each evening, they were playing football or tossing the frisbee around. During the day, they would walk across the park to Inkwell Beach and hang out. Parking wasn't a big deal, as the house had one parking pass, and the sea wall had ample 24-hour parking during our stay. The location was super convenient being so close to shops, restaurants, Back Door Donuts, and Mad Martha's :) One of our favorite features of the house was the wrap around porch. Unlike other houses on Ocean Ave, the porch was very private, and we were not in the line of sight of our next-door neighbors. The view from the master bedroom was unbeatable, and a great place for early morning coffee. Thanks to Teresa for a great stay on our vacation!

Great family vacation!
This was our first visit to Martha’s Vineyard and the Carousel House was perfect for our party of 11! Including 8 adults and our 3 grandchildren under the age of 3. Oak Bluffs was the perfect town with its beach, Ocean Park, retail stores and children’s playground at Niantic Park and of course the location of the Carousel House cannot be beat!! We rented cars to tour the whole island one day and took the ferry to Nantucket another day. We were there during the Covid crisis so were happy for the kitchen and dining room that could seat us all for cooking and carrying out! The owner and property manager were immediately available the couple of times that we had questions! Thank you, Teresa!!

Great location but the house needs TLC.
Historic home with an amazing location but the pictures of the exterior from the website were taken when the house was in better shape. The porch and trim need overdue maintenance. The lock on the master bathroom was broken so my buddies wife walked in on me the day we arrived. The door knob on the front door is broken and kept falling off. Nice home in need of maintenance work.

Right around the corner from the fun
We loved staying at the Carousel House for our first trip to Martha's Vineyard—"we" being two families with kids. The house is right around the corner from Back Door Donuts & the Arcade and a 2-minute walk from the Carousel. Additionally, the restaurant directly next door to the house was our favorite (we ate there 3 times) and the kids loved the unlimited peanuts & throwing shells on the ground (the food was great too). The home owner was very responsive in answering all of our questions and the home was as pictured.
