Incredible property, beautiful home, incredible appoitments at the crossroads of up island living. Will never get over being across the street from a private beach, 5 minutes from Menemsha, and 15 minutes from EVERYWHERE else. This is one of those homes that is a doorway into the classic age Vineyard lifestyle.

We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend stay at Blue Barque. Luncinda greeted us warmly and told us everything we needed to know about the property. Hancock Beach access was the icing on the cake!

Wonderful stay with grandparents and cousins, plenty of space and well equipped for family meals! Short drive to the best beach, and just down the road from the Grey Barn for fresh bread every morning. Thank you Lucinda and for being such great hosts!

We had a wonderful 5 days at Blue Barque! Next time will be longer! From the fresh flowers upon arrival, the lovely tour inside and outside, the key to Hancock Beach (truly amazing!), to the abundance of towels and anything else we needed - we could have not enjoyed our stay any more! Thank you Lucinda and Dan.

When celebrating a special birthday in Chilmark with family and friends, we enjoyed the Blue Barque house immensely. Centrally located up-island, between Gayhead and West Tisbury, the house is spacious and lovely. Decorated with flair, the Blue Barque house provided us with a comfortable, but very stylish gathering place with a grill for outdoor eating and watching the stars. Hancock Beach is breathtaking; we spent the day walking and sitting and talking and had the beach mostly to ourselves. The house is well-stocked, and Lucinda, who left me white roses for my birthday, is a welcoming and responsive host. I would highly recommend.
