About this property

Perfect beach house for a great family vacation

'Ferrindipity' is a quintessential Nantucket cape with an open floor plan. As you enter our home( first floor) you come upon the living room with a brick free standing fireplace, hardwood floors and beamed ceiling flowing into the eating area and kitchen. Off the living room is the master bedroom and 4th bedroom that is furnished as a TV room. There is a newly renovated full bathroom with a glass enclosed tile shower and beach stone floor. Off the kitchen are french doors to a wrap around deck. Upstairs are 2 more bedrooms each one has 2 twin beds and a full bathroom with a bath tub. The house is well equipped for a family vacation. There are 3 TVs each one hooked up to cable with on demand service, DVD, Bose wave stereo system, wireless internet service and cable telephone service. The outdoor shower is fabulous. Relax on the back deck or in the hammock with only the sound of the waves. The path beside the house leads directly to the best beach, located directly between Nobadeer and Fisherman’s.


Ferrindipity...the house: Ferrindipity is the perfect home for a great family vacation. It is located on a quiet dead end street. There is lots of privacy with scrub pines surrounding it. Recently renovated the house is easy to maintain...just open the doors and sweep out the sand. Lasting memories will be made here.

Transferrable boat tickets for an automobile are available to purchase for selective week.

Classic summer cottage in wonderful location

We loved staying here and enjoyed the peaceful backyard hammock and space around the house, walking to the beach, being in close proximity via car to different points on the island, and the comfortable east layout. Linda was a wonderful responsive host and we would definitely stay here again.

Lovely getaway

The quiet street was a perfect location. A quick bike ride to town, walk/ride to the beach - so convenient. The hammock in the yard made for lovely afternoon naps to the sound of the ocean.

Great vacation home

We had a wonderful 2 weeks at Ferrindipity. Very comfortable for the whole family. Bright, cheerful house with lots of windows. Nice, private location with the sound of waves crashing in the background. Only a 5 minute walk to the beach.

Incredible Week in ACK!

We absolutely loved our time staying at Linda’s private and secluded home. The home had everything we needed and was located in an incredible part of the island. Each morning we took a beach walk down a private path right outside our front door. The house is convenient to all pets of the island but also secluded and private. I would highly recommend staying here. We will be back!

September on the beach

We had the most lovely week at Ferrindipity! We we’re a 3 generation group with young kids (4 and 2) and found the house to have everything we needed, including plenty of kids toys, a booster seat, well stocked kitchen and beach chairs. Surfside is an awesome beach, and central on the island for easy access to town. The walk to the beach is an easy 5 min stroll through a neighborhood path. Linda is a warm an accessible host who did everything she could to make our stay comfortable. We had the best week and would love to come back again soon.

Camp Nantucket

We had an amazing stay at “Ferrindipity”. My husband, our two sons (ages 12 & 14) loved the home’s close proximity to the beach, bike path and town. We used the bike path daily whether for morning runs or quick bike rides into town or Surfside Cafe & Bakery or for a long bike excursion to Cisco Beach. The house was well-appointed with everything an active family needs to live. It’s a comfortably cozy and cute cottage; the outdoor shower was lovely. Our sons lounged in the property’s hammock daily. A small word about Nantucket as a whole: we were very impressed by the town’s “Mask Zone” signs everywhere and how much people would wear masks transitioning from parking lot to beach at Surfside. It was a wonderful escape for our family. Linda is a friendly and informative host. Highly recommend!

great house!

I rented this house in the 11th hour and the owners really came through for me. They felt like family versus landlords through the whole rental process. The house in a 10 minute walk to private surfside beach. We loved the outdoor shower and the privacy of the house and yard. I look forwrd to 2 weeks next year!
