Nestled among the trees on Chappaquiddick is Mytoi garden, a 14-acre property and Japanese-style garden filled with lush native and exotic plants, winding paths and wooden bridges.

The garden was created in 1958 by Edgartown architect Hugh Jones, who spent time in Japan while serving in the U.S. military. He gave it the name Mytoi, which is an alternative spelling of “my toy” and has no Japanese translation.
