The Goldfinch Cottage
58 Lake Ave.
Overview
The Goldfinch Cottage overlooks Oak Bluffs Harbor and has the ideal front porch for reading, people watching, and boat spotting. Steps away from downtown Oak Bluffs, the Tabernacle, and the sea, it is truly a perfect summer spot. Starting as a tent in 1866 and transitioning to cottage in 1867 the Goldfinch Cottage retains many of its original features, including unusual “balusters” and cut shingles.
