About this house rental
The house is a large family house in the Abels Hill community of Chilmark. The community shares use of a private south shore beach with beautiful Chilmark Pond for kayaking or canoeing, a tennis court, and access to miles of hiking trails.
The house has 6 bedrooms, and sleeps 13. 3 King sized beds, 1 Queen. 2 Doubles. One of the double bedrooms also has a twin. A large vaulted ceiling living/dining room looks out a glass wall over the 5 acre meadow with stone wall and organic vegetable garden that you can harvest from for your dinner or green smoothie! An exterior seating area on a deck w grill extends the living room and overlooks the meadow.
2 full bathrooms plus a powder room and outdoor shower with stained glass window!
A TV room and a music room, with electric piano, saxophone, bass, drum kit and drum machine are extra spaces for rainy days.
Its easy to walk to the beach and the pond from the house, which is across south road, just down the hill. To get to the beach you either use the Abel’s hill small boat which seats 4, our kayak (which seats 2), or wade across the shallow pond. Hiking trails for woodland running or hiking from Abels Hill take you to acres of magical preserved forests.
The house is simple, colorful and joyful.

A slice of heaven! We had a large family group from Age 1 , my granddaughter , to age 75 me and it was a fabulous time. Kitchen was small but serviceable, everything else was spacious, cabinet, and great for my 75th birthday party. Most of us were from Minneapolis, and we had beach towels, regular towels, beach umbrella, crib, high chair, a garden you could pick ripe veggies, books, toys, musical instruments, including bingos and drum set, A private beach which is an adventure. Perfect for large group and all ages! Thank you. The owner fixed our request, the outdoor shower hadn’t been turned on, and she sent someone out to get it on. Perfect!

My family and friends had a great weekend stay as we visited the island for a friend’s wedding very close by at the Allen Farm. The house was beautiful, very clean and set in a quiet, private location. We loved our long walk on the gorgeous beach just minutes from the house. My daughter’s two dogs enjoyed it as much as we did. We definitely would come back.
