The original residence at 36 Fair Street was built circa 1850. Originally part of a larger property  purchased by the Tutein family in 1950 this guesthouse has been lovingly maintained. Dexter Tutein continues to carry on the tradition today blending the charm of yesteryear with many of today's modern conveniences.

Because the Inn is located in Nantucket's historic district,  guests are within a few moments walk to Main Street. Nearby are boutiques, a newly renovated Whaling museum, art galleries, and antique shops. There are many wonderful restaurants within walking distance as well. Cars are not necessary in Nantucket, one can ride a bicycle or hop on the convenient shuttle bus that circles the island. Nantucket is known for its magnificent beaches, visit historic, 'Sconset at the east end of the island or enjoy the fishing village of Madaket on the west side. Whatever you choose, you are sure to relax and enjoy the comforts of the Woodbox at 36 Fair Street.

'What a great Inn. We'd definitely come back to The Woodbox!
The location is perfect. I'm five months pregnant with our third child.
I loved being so close to Main Street.
What an easy walk. Thanks for the great time."
