I travel frequently to Martha's Vineyard and always stay at 1720 House. It's 5 minutes from the ferry, downtown Vineyard Haven and a cute little park right on the water. Abby Hirsch the owner, is a New Yorker turned inn owner, and an author and journalist to boot. She's a hoot and knows what's happening on the island, both in... More

Abby and Cheryle were the two most welcoming hosts I think we've experienced on our travels. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel at home, and it was altogether a great few days on the Vineyard. The room was well kitted-out and the bed was comfortable. Great breakfast in the morning, and Abby and Cheryle were full... More

This is one of the best places I've stayed in quite a few years. My room was comfortable, the bed was like sleeping on a pillow, and the staff went above and beyond to make my stay a wonderful, pleasurable experience. If you're going to visit Vineyard Haven, you must stay at the 1720 House. You won't regret it!

The only complaint people seem to have is regarding Abby's attitude. I can corroborate this based on my interactions with her via email and telephone, but we were helped by another, extremely pleasant and helpful woman for the duration of the stay. The place is conveniently located, nicely put together, and quite comfortable for a house of its age. Breakfast... More

The house is charming, very well located, rooms are very nice and the living room area downstairs is great to relax in after a day... More

Ive stayed at The 1720 House before and it is as wonderful as I remember it. Great hospitality, wonderful beds, organic fresh breakfast and homemade cookies in the afternoon. Everyone goes far beyond what is expected of them to make clients happy. I.E when cab was late owner drove me to the airport. Thank you so much

I stayed at the 1720 House on Main street Vineyard Haven MA for a week. It was a terrific small B&B. Excellent breakfasts, tea and coffee all day long, pleasant garden to sit in. A nice stroll into town. Highly recommend it and will go back often,

We thoroughly enjoyed our Labor Day stay at 1720 House. The house is charming, located on a quiet and pretty stretch of Main Street in Vineyard Haven, an easy walk to town. We stayed in the Lincoln Room on the first floor, which is spacious and quiet, away from the other bedrooms. It was like staying at a friend's summer... More
