View Rentals in Mid Island, Nantucket

Distance to Beach: 3 miles | Distance to Town: 1.4 miles

Mid-Island has plenty of shops, restaurants and everything you might possibly need while on island. Home to Stop & Shop, the Nantucket Cottage Hospital and the infamous Chicken Box, this area is just a quick bike ride or NRTA Wave shuttle from town. It offers the ultimate convenience since you’re never far from shops, food or surf.

What To Do

The Chicken Box is a bar, live music venue and has been a Nantucket institution for over 50 years. As their website says, The Box “will always be an unpretentious, friendly and relaxing spot where people from all walks of life gather for fun and entertainment.” The Box is a Nantucket must so be sure to check out their impressive live music schedule. (Think: The Revivalists, Ziggy Marley, Citizen Cope, Galactic and so much more)
