About this property

Welcome to the Island next door! Our beloved home, Chappy Blue is our retreat. Our family fell in love with the beaches, dirt paths and car ferry.

Close to East & Norton Point Beaches, Golf at the Royal & Ancient Chappaquiddick Links, over sand Excursion to Cape Poge Lighthouse, kayaking, fishing, and three large conservation areas – Wasque, Mytoi Gardens & the Cape Poge Wildlife Refuge.

This completely updated reverse living home with new floors throughout, a remodeled kitchen (including new stove/oven) & bathrooms, windows, and more!! Enjoy cathedral ceilings with gorgeous views of nature. Private and serene, this home is loved.

Enjoy your cup of coffee every morning & fun beverages every night on the wrap-around deck. With 2 large sliders, there is easy in-and-out access to the living spaces. Parents, kids are comfortably sleeping downstairs & you can relax on the 2nd floor main living area! We just installed a Mini-Split AC unit for anyone who prefers a bit more cool air.

Minutes from beaches, parks and Edgartown, we love that you can get away without really being away! Our kids love biking to the ferry, playing at the community center, visiting the farm and the easy "commute" to Edgartown.

Needs much improvement

The owner was pleasant. Hurricane Henri made landfall on the day we were scheduled to arrive on Martha's vineyard .We were concerned because we had paid for the vacation that possibly wasn't going to happen. The owner was defensive when we started discussing the hurricane and was adamant that we get to the island, find a hotel (additional expense)and stay the night and wait out the hurricane with no assurance that the ferry would start running; totally unreasonable. This definitely left a sour taste in my mouth. We never requested a refund due to a force majeure none the less. As expected it was quiet and remote in Chappaquidick. There was an unbearable musky smell in the house which was unfortunately not taken care of by the dehumidifiers. This made it difficult to sleep at night.The bedrooms need new linens as they are dated. The floors especially the corners and under the bed have clearly been neglected as evidenced by the cobwebs. The grill needed a thorough clean before we put anything on it. There was grime on all the surfaces of all the outside furniture which was mostly broken. The dishwasher was unhinged (we had to keep the kids away) but functional. The kitchen is bare bones, bring everything! The owner did try to send a contractor while we were there. Please note that hot water is rationed and there is no central air. Overall we didn't let any of this deter us from having a good time.

Nice home with a few details to help

Enjoyable stay overall. However, Only one towel provided and not having a laundry service to prepare for the next rental was disappointing. With bedrooms on the ground floor, having an additional dehumidifier would be helpful, but realize it’s a beach house.

Serene Get Away

This is an updated, but rustic Chappy house. Our family with 8 adults and two, one year olds was comfortable. We loved the upstairs kitchen and open family room. Everyone enjoyed dining on the deck, and the outdoor shower. The drive to East beach was about 5 minutes, and we were able to drive our vehicle right onto the beach. I would recommend this remote and peaceful location to anyone who really wants to unplug for vacation.

So much fun staying on Chappy!

We had an amazing stay and this Chappy house was the perfect home base. We regularly rode our bikes to the Chappy ferry and crossed over to explore MV. But it was great to hang out at the beaches on Chappy and chill.

Cute house, friendly host

Our stay at this house was a great escape from the city for my husband and I and a few friends. The location was remote, peaceful, and quiet. All of our questions and concerns were addressed quickly and helpfully by Jeannette before and during our stay. We especially enjoyed the shed stocked chairs, a tent, and other goodies to take to the beach.

About the host

Hosted by Jeannette Dardenne

Our family fell in love with Martha's Vineyard so many years ago. Hectic lives at home, we looked for an escape that allowed us to relax and still have access to tons of fun. Our kids love adventures but also access to shopping, games and lots of activity!

Sharing our home with others is our pride and joy. We have decorated this home with a beachy blue hue that is meant to inspire happiness and serenity.

Why they chose this property

We wanted a bit of quiet, safety and access to options. Our neighbors are wonderful and take care of each other. The small-town community feel is also comforting. Regular games and events at the community center keep us entertained.

What makes this property unique

Aside from upside-down living, (bedrooms are on the ground floor), we chose to create a layout that allows for entertaining... and privacy! The wrap-around deck has plenty of places to chill, the yard is open and the bedrooms on the ground level allow for "time away" when you need it.
