Property was exactly as pictured and described. It was perfect for our group of ten. We appreciated the effort from the host in making our stay enjoyable.

Beautiful property. Serene setting. Great communication and quickly resolved an issue. (My 83 year old mother was cold.). Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay. It easily accommodated all seven of us.

Staying here is a lot like having good friends who loan you their wonderful vacation home for a week. The kitchen is very well stocked, including a spice cabinet that has just about everything, along with other staples. In most rentals I’m rummaging around for something to put fruit in, but here there’s a nice bowl on the counter just waiting for our apples. There’s also a ‘junk drawer’ with all those little things like rubber bands, safety pins, pencils etc that you may suddenly need but didn’t think to bring. Communication was very good. The cleaners had neglected to put out soaps and shampoo and Jim showed up within an hour with supplies. John later wrote to make sure the house was clean and we got the bottle of wine. The house was very clean but no wine. He sent the cleaner over with one, just in time for us to get it chilled and take it to dinner at The Homeport. (Chilmark is a dry town.) The house has lots of room for a large group to spread out. We were in the east wing and joked that we made our steps. The large deck makes the most of the lovely wooded setting. The house is clean, comfortable, attractively furnished with nice touches and very welcoming. Be aware that the road there is a lengthy, winding, single dirt track but our loaded minivan had no trouble on it. An Uber initially missed the turn but was fine on the road. You need to set your gps before you leave the town as there is little to no signal. Once at the house you’re fine. Ready to kick back.

Chilmark is beautiful and this was tucked privately down a long dirt road. There was ample space for the 7 of us with no problems accessing bathroom or getting some quiet time when needed. The owner was quick to respond to questions and was able to accommodate our requests. We arrived to a nice bottle of white wine. The down side to this property is the overall lack of cleanliness. Dirty floors, walls and a very overpowering smell of mildew and must throughout the home. The house is heavily shaded and although the seclusion is peaceful, the home remained damp our entire stay and the home is not equipped with adequate moisture control--especially after such a wet season. The one small dehumidifier in the basement had a note on it to empty it if full as the drainage system may not always work. We emptied it a few times but the unit is not anywhere big enough to handle the living space. Even the couch and rugs were damp like we were glamping. Linens appeared clean but the problem with having renters launder the towels is lack of oversight and my facecloth was covered in red markings (lipstick I hope)which did fade signficantly after I washed it myself. Affordable price for this area but it is time for that 12 hour deep clean, humidity control and fresh paint. Still enjoyed our time together and we hope the owners are able to address these concerns because then they would have a real gem!!
