EXPECTATIONS This is where, in the interest of transparency, we divulge all of the things that you ought to know about the house This may repeat what is on Airbnb PARKING The fewer cars you bring to the island the better. That said.... We have space for up to 4 cars in our single-lane driveway. We also have rented guaranteed available additional parking one block away for another two cars and possibly more. When the Wings are both rented the East Wing gets the driveway and the West Wing gets the two spots down the street. This way no one gets blocked in. There is free parking on the street during the day for up to two hours in the season and all day off-season. There is no parking overnight from 2:00 am to 7:00 am. There are two town parking lots with overnight parking at the foot of Main Street and at nearby Mayhew Lane. There is another lot up at the Triangle called the Dark Woods Lot. WATER You are 200 feet from Edgartown Harbor. Walk out of the house and down Morse Street to Edgartown's North Wharf. This is a public wharf and also houses the harbormaster and a marine store. We have a Boston Whaler that is docked here and available as a separate rental. We mention this because some may consider that a hazard. STAIRS & RAILING This house was built in 1840 before modern building standards. There are steep stairs from the West Wing of the 1st floor to the 3rd floor and from the East Wing's 2nd floor to the 3rd floor. There are also low railings on the porches and at the West Wing 2nd-floor landing. Small children will need supervision.
