We went to the summer house for lunch and got completely ripped off. Looking at the menu the average appetizer was about $15-20. The waitor (whom is friends with the owner) said since we had a group of 8 that he would fix us a seafood plate and didn't mention the cost. Once he took our regular order which everyone... more

The "cottages" at first seem a little weird but the more you are in sconset the more you feel like you are somewhere outside of the country. I admit I was not impressed with the rooms, but the location is phenomonal as well as the food and the service. I would come back for drinks, to hang out at the... more

We spent a week this summer dividing my time between the Summer House Cottages in Siasconset and the Summer House on Fair Street and it was one of the most relaxing, pampered vacations I have ever had. The setting of the inn on the ocean is beyond compare and the cottages have an understated charm that is anything but hotel... more

The Summer House at Fair Street was a HUGE disappointment. Many promised amenities were not offered: no turn down service, no robes in rooms... There were BUGS in our TINY bath room and the towel rack was about to fall off the wall. The gardens were full of weeds. The "complimentary breakfast" consisted of cereal, bread, muffins one day and... more

We have stayed a number of times at the Summer House Inns in Nantucket town, both on India St and on Fair St and we have always enjoyed our stays there. We agree with another reviewer who praised the ladies who cook the breakfast and clean the rooms. They are hardworking, courteous and efficient and have always been responsive to... more

I truly wish I was able to write a favorable review for the Siasconset property however my recent vist there was marked by an unfortuante experience which speaks volumes about the quality of service offered at this Inn. My girlfriend and I visited the summer house in early july for three nights. I was planning on proposing to my girlfriend... more

The Summer House is a very special place but, it's not for everyone. Decidedly unpretentious, it is all about barefoot luxury. Want to get pampered by a hushed staff who bow and scrape, and hang with the wispering crowd, then this is not the place for you. However, if you appreciate simple luxury and old world, bygone charm, well, then... more

Unbelievable

We stayed at the Summer House 18 years ago for a week and it was lovely. Recently we thought it would be nice to take our daughters to Nantucket for a week next summer. After reading these reviews I could not believe that it has become this bad so I decided to call the Summer House myself and ask directly... more

We didn't stay at the Summer House because we left it too late to book - but ventured out to lunch at the 'bistro' overlooking the sea. The waiters were very friendly and efficient although the place is poorly served by a garrulous restaurant manager. We witnessed two groups of customers - one a large group of golfers - reach... more
