About this property

Private setting nestled in the heart of East Chop.

Great East Chop (Oak Bluffs) location! Take morning walks on world famous East Chop Drive, or watch the sunset from there in the evening. Enjoy lively downtown Oak Bluffs, just one mile from the house. Close to beaches - just 1.5 miles to Inkwell Beach and 1.2 miles to Eastville Beach. Enjoy the second story deck to have coffee and watch the birds, or to enjoy an evening drink.

The house is situated on a nearly one acre private, wooded lot. It's an upside down house - the main living area, main bathroom, main bedroom (deck access), and large deck are upstairs. Secondary bedrooms, a common room, and small bath are downstairs. There is also a nice, new outside shower, as well as a new front deck downstairs. The large, completely open, great room (living room, kitchen, dining room) with cathedral ceiling and two new skylights and the deck are where you'll hangout when you're not enjoying all that Oak Bluffs - and the rest of the island have to offer.

As the bedrooms are currently set up (stay tuned), we recommend a maximum of 4 adults, 3 if you're all single. PLEASE NOTE: Linens and towels are not provided. Pillows and blankets are provided.

The kitchen is fully equipped. There is a smart TV upstairs and Wi-Fi is provided. There is air conditioning (and heat) with newly-installed mini-splits in the great room and master bedroom. There are fans only in the generally much cooler downstairs. There is also a brand new washer and dryer downstairs.

Originally built in the early 70s, this is just a basic house, not a luxury hideaway. It’s a fantastic location from which to enjoy all the island has to offer. Great for an active couple or family! I've spent many mornings on the deck getting ready for an adventure and then relax there afterwards in the evening. In fact, I'm here right now on a June evening on the deck and an osprey just hovered overhead. East Chop is filled with dirt roads to walk or bike. Walks to Crystal Lake and the East Chop Lighthouse are a must! Book your stay today!

Spacious Home

My family of 4, all adults, enjoyed this spacious and comfortable home, a short drive to the Center of Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven. We bought beautiful sunflowers which added to the bright, yet wooded setting and used the wonderful outdoor shower daily.

Peaceful Place

Property was a great location for my activities on the Vineyard. I very much enjoyed the peaceful nature of the place. The owner was appropriately communicative about all details prior to my stay. I loved the privacy of the property. I missed not having sheets and towels available as part of the rental but that’s my personal preference. I had a nice time and would recommend the property to others.

Great location, but…

Staying in East Chop is idyllic if you like to be close to the action but with enough distance for serenity. This property fits that bill. That said… Pros: About a mile walk from Oaks Bluff, and a short walk to the lighthouse, and gorgeous sunsets on East Chop Drive. The neighbor across the road has chickens and sells fresh eggs. Amazing! The upstairs layout of the house is open and airy. Cons: The house was not clean when we arrived. I had to wash dishes and sweep the floor of sand, hair and dust when we arrived. Downstairs was dark with several spiders. Our adult daughter ended up sleeping in the living room. Bottom line: Loved the location, and really wanted to love the house. Commitment to making the place rental ready and considering a few upgrades would go a long way.
