About this house rental

Located in Menemsha, this attractive house for R 20,203 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. Location! Location! Location! Charming, and nestled away, this must see post and beam home is situated on the edge of the Keith Farm, which provides multiple sweeping pastoral views and occasional visits by the beautiful horses who graze on the neighbor's property. We have been asked to enjoy their beauty but not to feed them. Both the isolated beauty of this secluded one acre property and the convenience of this amazing central location, are what make it so special. This home is beautiful yet not fussy, furnished with both elegance and comfort in mind, with well thought out amenities, including but not limited to a wonderful new kitchen completed in 2022. This fully equipped "Cooks" kitchen includes a large table that seats 8-10. The deck is appointed with teak furnishings , a large direct line gas grill and wonderful views of the beautiful Vineyard sunsets. Along with the kitchen a new full house A/C systems been installed. Our guests rave about the large outdoor shower. Inside the main house is an open concept living room with cathedral ceilings and the loft area above has a T. V. which is great for hanging out but also can be used as an extra space for house guests on the pull out futon. 4 Bedrooms (each with their own bathrooms) are furnished with plush mattresses and bedding (3 bedrooms are in the main house, the 4th is in the detached cottage) Detached cottage provides an additional bedroom and 500 sq ft of guest space. With a screen door and AC unit, you have your choice of enjoying the cool breeze with the screen doors open or to cool off in the AC. Most past guests say this is the prime bedroom! AND THERE'S MORE.......... 2 minute drive or 10 minute walk to the famed Lucy Vincent Beach; 2 minute drive or 10 minute walk to the Center of Chilmark, the library and the Chilmark Community Center, where you can access a bus during the summer season multiple times a day, to any town on the island; Chilmark is the home to the picturesque working village of Menemsha, which is famous for fresh catch seafood and spectacular sunsets; If you enjoy walking trails, Chilmark has the most of any town on the island; A 10 minute drive out of town will bring you to the famed red clay cliffs with beach below to the town of Aquinnah, formerly known as Gayhead.

Located between Lucy Vincent Beach and the Chilmark Community Center, the house provided easy access to our favorite spots on the Vineyard. It's a beautiful property and the owners are easy to reach with any questions.

Epic place to stay on the island

Once again, Megan has been an awesome host and her house is just so gorgeous. This time we used the grill for almost every dinner at home, and it was very fun and delicious. Seafood from the island purveyors, including ample grilled oysters, and vegetables from the farm markets. Every day we took walks on beaches and paths to explore, including the nearby Fulling Mill Brook which was so interesting! The host immediately took care of any requests we had and took our calls and made any changes necessary. This was a great stay and we cannot recommend this house, and Megan, enough!

Megan and Phil's place is a great winter get-away with 2 gas fireplaces - one in the kitchen area and one in the living room, both where you spend most of the time not in bed! These are high- end fireplaces, more like wood stoves with visible flames - very charming, and very warm and cozy! Then venture outside for a walk on one of the Vineyards best beaches, or find trails in the Menemsha Hills and finish off with the most amazing lobster bisque at Menemsha Fish Market. Take home some fish for dinner! Don’t forget the Scottish Bakery in the next town up! Our second time this season there, hope to return!

Comfy and roomy, welcoming, tastefully decorated and well-provisioned house with a great yard and deck. The hosts made us feel very welcome and were helpful, and kind, every step of the way. Chilmark is one of the most mysterious and cool parts of the island, where rolling Scottish-looking farms and woods border the picturesque Lucy Vincent Beach! Our family knows the island well and we explore all the walking paths and beaches we can. We loved the living room, the roomy useful loft upstairs, the two master-sized bedrooms downstairs, the views onto the farmland and the neighbors--horses! The kitchen is for serious cooks and bakers, we did not fear to tackle recipes because everything was provided. The kids appreciated the ample games and puzzles. The Beach can be reached by a 4 minute drive or by walking, and it has both the south / Atlantic side surf and the gorgeous red clay cliffs that lead up to Aquinnah. At the house, flocks of winter bluebirds came by along with a real mix of backyard birds. Deer, geese and wild turkeys roamed the hills we could see from the house windows. Menemsha is a short ride away so our local store provided chowder, bisque, stuffed quahogs, bluefish, oysters on the half shell, and flaky sole). We celebrated Christmas and the New Year together as a family, avoiding the crowds of summer and enjoying the mild maritime winter of the Vineyard. We did takeout sandwiches from Black Dog and took them on the short ferry ride to Chappaquiddick, which has opened new trails to the ocean and salt marsh ponds that make you feel like you are at the end of the Earth (with a view over to Nantucket).
