Owned by the same family for over 45 years, this comfortable home is well-stocked with games, puzzles, books, beach chairs, clam rakes, fishing poles, life jackets, kayaks, a gas grill, lobster pot, and a small cooler. With a large desk and sleep sofa on the mezzanine level, it is a perfect location for a vacation, fishing or remote work (we have high-speed wireless internet), away from the traffic and crowds of the main island. The original owners were a politically active professor and master quilter who travelled the world. The house bears their stamp.

The first floor has 3 bedrooms and a full bath - a queen bedroom; a king (or two twin) bedroom with a screened in porch, and a room with 2 twin bunk beds. This level has an outdoor shower and a wrap-around deck leading to a walkway that takes you to a separate guesthouse with a 4th bedroom - a queen bed, sitting area with a couch and desk, and a 1/2 bath with another outdoor shower. The ground level has a walk-in basement with washer, dryer and second refrigerator. A clam and fish-cleaning station is located in the side yard. The main living area and 2 bedrooms downstairs have air conditioning (through mini-splits); the bunk room and guest house have fans. This sounds abundant, but you won't have to be careful with the designer furniture - there isn't any.

Katama Bay - great for kayaking, talking a dip, clamming or walking on the beach - is just an 8-10 minute walk from the house. Wasque Point and South Beach are a 5 minute drive or 15-20 minute walk, and the Pocha Pond viewing station is a 15 minute walk. East Beach, North Neck, the My Toi Japanese garden, Cape Pogue Bay, the Chappy Community Center, Slip Away Farm and Chappy Point are only 4-5 miles from the house, an easy bike ride or short drive,

A car is essential; Chappy is a short 3 minute ferry ride from Edgartown and the house is 4 miles from the ferry. You will need to take the Chappy Ferry to Edgartown or other parts of the Vineyard for restaurants or most groceries.

We like to work with our renters to ensure a smooth rental experience. For example, since there are many stairs, both inside and outside the house, it is not very safe for children under 3 who are actively crawling or early walkers/runners. However, if you are traveling with an infant who is not crawling, that would be fine. And while there is a 7 day minimum rental period during the summer, you need ferry tickets to get here. If you have difficulty purchasing tickets, we may be able to be flexible with rental dates.
