Beautiful and peaceful
8.0 / 10.0
This could not be more of a relaxing spot, located in a nature preserve area on the quiet side of MV. We were welcomed by many types of birds and a family of bunnies during our stay. It is very quiet and peaceful, with a few great spots for dining and access to resident only beaches which are never crowded. The deck is huge and the wrap around windows in the living room were really special. My only suggestion to other vacationers is to be aware the cottage is small, and the main bedroom is tight with only a full size matress, so it is a bit challenging if you’re used to a larger bed & bedroom.
Overall my wife and I had a really nice & relaxing time.

Beautiful spot for a couple, quiet except for songbirds and the Menemsha Harbor bell a mile or so distant. Big beautiful view, including Gay Head Lighthouse light. Private and peaceful.
10.0 / 10.0
This beautiful little cottage with a view of the harbor was a perfect escape from our City life. The space is smartly laid out and the living room with glass walls on three sides is the perfect spot to relax with a book -- it was equally beautiful to watch a storm approach as it was to watch the sun set.
10.0 / 10.0
This spot was wonderful- even better than we anticipated from the online advertising. The yard is very private, with a spectacular view and walkable go various spots. Everything is clean and the kitchen essentials are well stocked. The host is very organized, great communication and everything went smoothly.

Went here in May 2024 for my husband's 50th & a change of scenerty. Have been to MV many times but never stayed in Menemsha. This home was lovely - clean, serene, great yard for our mutt to run around. A few things to note for guests: it is in a very remote part of the island, so there is a lot of drive time (was fine for us); there are blackout curtains / shades, so you wake up with the sun (bring an eye mask); make sure you load up on groceries before you get to the house (especially ice); Chilmark is a dry town, so if you head to Chilmark Tavern (delightful place + 5 min drive from the house!) be sure to bring your favorite adult bev. Christian was very communicative the entire stay - super helpful. All in all, it was a really nice getaway.

Enjoyed the property completely. Loved the fact that we could walk to The dock and get fresh seafood and prepare it and dine on the deck with incredible views!

Everything about this house was perfect for our visit with family on MV. It was clean, comfortable, and had all the amenities we needed for a lovely fall week on MV. The location is private and peaceful, with beautiful views. Communication with Christian was easy and accommodating. A little gem!

Perfect escape to explore the island - it has water views in two directions and is extremely quiet.
8.0 / 10.0
Property was clean, comfortable, and the spot where it was located was it just outstanding. We did have our two labrador retrievers with us and found it to be a very safe area for them. The views out the window were pretty special though some of the sliders were a little tricky because they’re old. They was a couple glitches with the water in the outside shower, but the owner assured us he would repair the issue. It’s out of t huddle and bustle & very peaceful!

We had a great vacation! Communication with Christian was clear, fast and he was always available. Place was clean, updated, very well equipped and accurately described in the listing. Abundant natural light! Great location, a little removed from the hustle and bustle which we loved. Very pet friendly. Beach umbrella and chairs were in great condition. All of the outdoor furniture was of nice quality. Would definitely come back!

Menemsha is our favorite location on the island and this charming guest house was simply perfect in every regard.
We enjoyed the sunsets from the deck, watching the 4 bunnies enjoy the lush grass on the sweeping lawn, long walks on backroads, and quick trips to Larsen's for fresh seafood. The house is well equipped with everything we needed, and the owners have paid attention to every detail to make our stay very comfortable and easy.
10.0 / 10.0
From the moment, you arrive, you're smiling at this well appointed mid-century home by the water. Its sweeping grassy field looks over Mememsha Pond and the views from the deck at night are second to none.
We enjoyed a bottle of champagne and seared scallops as we watched the sun set in the west. The property is lush and full of darling baby bunnies, catbirds, and the occasional frog.
The house is the epitome of efficiency but it feels cool, hip and laid back. The kitchen is expertly clean and spacious. The bedroom has a sliding wood door for privacy if there are kids or family in the second bedroom. The showers (both indoor and outdoor) are perfect - great water pressure and everything you need is provided.
We stayed for a week, making daily trips to the beaches, fairs, farm stands and restaurants.
We feel that Chilmark - along with its neighbor, West Tisbury - are the crown jewels of the Island. Cool, fun, easygoing and serene.
So many wonderful places to eat nearby!
Book this jewel box if you can and enjoy!
Great communication too!

We love Up Island and found this wonderful rental in Chilmark - Menemsha area.
The owners have gone above and beyond to set-up this cozy small cottage to have everything you could want in a rental and then some. It is a rarity to find rentals like this that come with a working super-clean grill; outdoor amenities (sun loungers, large deck umbrella, picnic table) a fully equipped kitchen, great wifi, and an immaculate bathroom. Also provided were thoughtful extras of a beach umbrella, beach chairs, and beach towels (which we did not use as it was chilly when we were there).
Communication with the owners was timely and thorough. Pre-rental information and communication as well as detailed house info available upon arrival ensured we had no questions left unanswered.
This is a very small cottage which is, for the most part, thoughtfully laid out. The current configuration of the main bedroom is awkward especially for the person sleeping on the right side (as you are lying down) of the bed. It's right-sized for a couple and would be even more perfect if the "spare bedroom" was instead opened to kitchen living area and a small dining table and/or a comfortable chair put in that area.
We would rent this cottage again. Thank you again Christian and Sara!

Spotless and chic modern guesthouse. Views of the pond and surrounding countryside are lovely. Tiny but efficient - good for a couple. Needs better lighting for reading and new blinds. Would replace washer/dryer combo machine which was hard to operate and so loud it shook the house. Otherwise everything was perfect! Loved it.

We were looking for peace and quiet in a lovely setting during the shoulder season and found it and more in this property. Property was extremely well equipped and clean. Owners were extremely kind and you could tell that they put every thought into making sure that you had everything that you needed during your stay. The location itself couldn’t have been any better for our needs. It was the perfect location, enough open space to feel as if you were secluded while being close to enough restaurants and nature attractions. Plenty of close opportunities for beautiful walks with our dog. All an all a perfect host and an absolutely beautiful location to enjoy some rest and relaxation on the Vineyard. Will definitely stay there again in the future.

We enjoyed the stay. Everything was as listed. I made suggestions for some additions and minor repairs and received a thank you right away. I would not recommend for more than 2 people as it is very tight quarters. Maybe one more in bunk bed. Master bed is a double and no room for larger.

Lovely house.
10.0 / 10.0
The Guest House was the perfect place for our week "off the grid" -- it was a delight to arrive to such a bright, clean, and comfortable space, perfect for two friends and their dog. We felt so well taken care of, ever since booking the house -- Christian was super responsive and helpful when we first made plans and then when we were getting ready to arrive and later on the island. I can't imagine a better home base for summer adventures, and we can't wait to come back.

This particular road is our favorite on MV - it's an exceptional location on an island that is stunning to begin with. The sunsets were dramatic.
The little cottage was *extremely* clean and well- supplied. The owner made sure we were all set when we arrived.

Updated adorable cottage walk to Menemsha Harbor
We had a wonderful experience in this cottage on a bluff overlooking the water. Large private yard for our dog was a huge plus! Cottage was so cute and clean, very bright and comfortable. Everything needed was provided. It was tiny but very comfortable.

Sublime
Good things come in small packages... Lovely upisland cottage with distant water views and glorious sunset skies. You almost feel like you are on a perfectly supplied houseboat except that a beautiful green lawn spills off the deck. It's private and feels a bit off the grid yet Menemsha village is a 5 minute drive. This straightforward compact home was perfectly suited to us. Many thanks!
