A very small Seaside Cottage

Songwriter Lvingston Taylor calls his Small Seaside Cottage on Marthas Vineyard The Camp. It's where he spends the summer, working in silence, listening inside or in his words to his muse.

Did I mention 300-square-foot small! But not to worry. His real house is just up the hill and five times the size.

  1. I don't know what it is about small spaces but I just love them. I guess it is the cozy factor. Cute little casita.

  2. I guess you could overlook the size considering the location!!.. Thanks for commenting on my blog. The sepia also helps disguise the poor scanning quality! I will have to post some more sepia!.

  3. Time to read "Gifts from the Sea" again for the upteenth time! Thanks for sharing - wondering if he is related to James Taylor...I'm thinking so, but not sure...

  4. Yes he is the brother of James Taylor, who supposedly also lives on Martha's Vineyard.

  7. It looks like it suits him quite well. We saw Livingston in concert in Portsmouth, NH last summer. He put on a great show.

  8. Beautiful surrounding. The cottage is small but like a hotel room, I can imagine you're not in in long enough for it to matter.

  9. Thanks for sharing this tiny but beautiful corner of the world. Love the Vineyard and all the flavour of the sea there. You do have some nice things going on in your blog space.

  10. I probably passed by there a few times when living on the vineyard. My room there was small too, about 9 x9 , and super expensive rent.....
    Thanks for the visit,

  12. I've been a fan of Livingston Taylor's for years. He's best when he plays to intimate audiences. His talent is immense.

    His place is so cool, just like the man.
