June 2018A great spot for "R & R"
The Chilmark Hideaway is a lovely home, and Peter Maghee, the owner, communicated beautifully throughout the process. He could not have been more accommodating. We had an early June week which was a short time before the influx of Vineyard visitors. As a result Menemsha, a very quiet part of the island, was even quieter, and a large percentage of the very few local restaurants were not yet open for the season. The entry to the house was long and very primitive, which suited us well, but might not be everyone's "cup of tea." He personalized our arrival by having our name on a painted sign at the entrance - a very nice touch. The house itself is charming and it has a stellar chef's kitchen with all of the wares to make it very convenient for those staying. There was a charcoal Weber grill for barbecuing; however, having a small gas grill as well might provide a good alternative and eliminate the need to head off to purchase charcoal. The television was DIRECTV, which sounds great on the surface, but it doesn't have some of the cable and sports channels that we would have enjoyed when the weather was inclement. That said, the book inventory was excellent, and it was a very cozy spot to settle back and immerse ourselves in reading. The distance from the busy part of the island was a full 30 minutes away, and our feeling was that the house would be ideal for visitors who are looking for an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and a taste of New England. Many thanks to Peter for making his home available. In Chilmark Hideaway, you will find a very comfortable and cozy retreat and we are sure that you will enjoy your stay, as we did. Peter Drake”

June 2016Beautiful and serene setting
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chilmark Hideaway, which is located on a quiet side of the island. There is a lovely walk that takes you to the beach, fish markets and a cafe where you can enjoy coffee. It is such fun to watch the busy harbor, and we went out on a fishing charter and brought home dinner. The home is well equipped and very comfortable, and the views are simply beautiful. We met the owner who graciously answered our questions, and his brother who lives in the house next door. We explored many spots on the island and were always happy to return "home" to this lovely spot. As an aside, this part of the island is "dry" so if you enjoy a glass of wine you will want to pick that up at a store near the airport or in other parts of the island. You can bring a bottle to a restaurant -- it seems to be quite the norm here. ”

October 2015Warm and Welcoming Menemsha Home
We had a lovely Fall wedding weekend in this beautiful home. The owners were extremely helpful and informative about the Island. Martha's Vineyard is lovely this time of year and almost everything is still open for the season. We would love to return. Thanks 3rd Home!”
