GPS tends to find our address, 27 Abel's Neck Road. You can also find Mapquest driving directions below. 

The only tricky part is that Abel's neck is a one-way head in, so enter on Boston Hill Road (just before Abel's Neck if you are headed south) and the keep to the left at the fork to get onto Abels Neck.

We hosted a micro-wedding at this property and could not have asked for a more perfect venue. Our stay was quiet, serene, and cozy. This home has all the comfort and amenities you need, with added bonuses of amazing location and ambiance. The house is impeccably designed and decorated with quintessential Vineyard style and charm. We appreciated all the small details and vintage/reclaimed furnishings. We enjoyed amazing Menemsha sunsets from the beautiful upper deck almost every night of our stay. The house was expertly cleaned upon our arrival and check in was seamless. The property owners are kind, accommodating and communicative. We thoroughly enjoyed working with and getting to know them. Overall an absolutely lovely stay in a picturesque setting. 100% recommended!

Beautiful Chilmark home
Beautiful Chilmark home
We are just back from a wonderful week in this Chilmark home. It is a breath taking property, including an expansive yard, including a fire pit, and a lovely 2 level deck system. The outdoor shower was idyllic, with strawberry vines growing up the wall. The 3 bedrooms were beautiful, with comfortable beds and linen. The kitchen was well equipped, but strangely missing a microwave. The internet access was good, as my son had to work from home for a few of the days and did so without problems. There were a few "oops" things with the cleanliness (used towels in one of the bathrooms and a few other minor things) and the fridge and freezer were partially full with the homeowners' stuff, but neither was a deal breaker at all. I highly recommend this home and would love to stay here again in the future.

My husband and I travel from California to our favorite place - Martha's Vineyard every September and this year we found a truly remarkable home. Thanks to the gracious host, Richard, we had an amazing long vacation in his wonderfully appointed home nestled off a very private and quiet back road in Chilmark. We could not have asked for a more lovely location - super close and convenient to town, the Chilmark store, the Tavern, and our favorite Lucy Vincent Beach all while giving us quiet, peace and solitude. We also loved that our daily drive to Menemsha to Larsen's to get fresh fish and catch the sunset was such a close drive too. The home itself has everything you need and was well appointed while being so comfortable and beautifully designed. We enjoyed the outdoor shower every day, the horseshoes, the outdoor fire pit and watching the stars at night while eating dinner on the back deck. The linens and towels were all clean and we were provided with beach towels and chairs which was super helpful. We cooked at home most nights and the kitchen had everything we needed and more. There were lots of board games available and we especially appreciated the backgammon set as we played every evening. The home was so relaxing and comfortable we truly felt at ease and at home. Richard was a lovely host who was super easy to reach and communicate with from day one and we were so grateful for his warm hospitality. We would love to stay at his home again and we can not recommend it enough to anyone who is seeking a secret gem tucked away in the always magical Martha's Vineyard.

We stayed for our usual two weeks on MV in this wonderful Chilmark home in late August, 3 adults and 2 teenage children. Danielle, the owner was incredibly responsive and helpful. The house is clean, airy and extremely comfortable. You can walk to the Chilmark Store! You have access to Lucy Vincent and Squibnocket Beaches. We have been renting for 15+ years on the Island. This was our first summer in this house and we could not have had a better experience.
