A perfect summer family vacation

Our time at Chilmark Hideaway will be remembered fir a very long time. My wife and I spent the week there with our American children and 3 granddaughters in the great comfort of this wonderful property. The olde world comfort of the house and garden, the gourmet kitchen and the great beach access were appreciated. The ability to be part of the Martha’s community for a week was very special! ”

Fantastic Vacation

The Chilmark Hideaway was the perfect location for a family vacation on Martha's Vineyard. Peter was incredibly helpful arranging for car ferry reservations and advising us on island information, including hiking trails, beach passes and great restaurants. The house is well-appointed with everything we needed for cooking seafood feasts as well as towels, beach chairs and a verdant garden generously offered up for use by the host. The house slept everyone comfortably and had lovely views of Menemsha Harbor. I will forever treasure drifting off to sleep with the offshore breezes bringing the soft ringing of the harbour buoy to our bedroom window. ”

A 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”
