President Obama's $7.6 Million Dollar Eight Day Vacation At Martha's Vineyard-Photo's

President Obama and his family will arrive at Martha's Vineyard on August 10 for an eight day vacation. The cost to the American taxpayer is staggering an estimated whopping $7.6 million dollars.  As in the past, the Wesley Hotel in Oak Bluffs will house security and communications officials. The owner told the Vineyard Gazette that the Secret Service has booked 70 rooms and another five have been reserved for the Transportation Security Agency. Rates at the hotel run from $225-$345.

Architect Rick Sundberg, now of Sundberg Kennedy Ly-Au Young Architects, confirmed Monday that the Obamas will stay in a home that he redesigned. The $7.6 million home is located on 9.5 acres in Chilmark, the wealthiest town on the island.

The home was built in 1961 and renovated in 2006, according to Sundberg's website.

It features a private master suite with its own den. An open floor plan includes pond and ocean views from the living room, dining room and kitchen. There's also a small basketball court.
