So cute and quaint! The owners were so helpful, accommodating and friendly. They provided us with umbrellas, beach chairs and towels! It's located in the middle of town and walkable to everything. 100% recommend! Would stay again!
My daughter and I loved our stay at The Chestnut House! Beautiful hand made rugs and original paintings were perfect for its old Nantucket feel. Jennifer knew what eating places to recommend and what sights are not to be missed. When we had an outing to the beach she provided a blanket, towels, water, and a bag to pick up shells. Couldn't have been better!
Very classic look. Loved the look of the decor. Very spacious room for the price but still very cozy. Super comfortable bed! Only source of light were lamps spread out around the room so room was dimly lit. Heating took awhile to warm up the room. Most affordable room in the area at the time of booking.
One of the few family owned businesses with a wonderful location the Chestnut house was a relaxing getaway And walkable to all major restaurants and attractions. I highly recommend!
Our room was comfortable and the staff were friendly and accommodating. The surroundings were pleasant; there was a nice sitting area directly outside the property. The proximity to the shops, restaurants, and attractions were very convenient.
Ian and his Aunt are down to earth and very easy. Check in was a breeze and we came and went as we pleased with no interruptions. I cannot wait to book this stay again!

Perfect location. Should provide at least coffee in morning. Should also have window ac in living room.
We (a family of 3 with a young child) stayed at the Chestnut House for a weekend during the off-season. It was a lovely stay. The location is convenient, the staff friendly, the rooms clean and nicely decorated, and we loved the upstairs library. We will be back hopefully next spring!
