Classic Modern House on its Own Point of Land with Astounding Views

highly recommend , loved the view and the hammock . I really felt like we went back in time . This home understated in the best way , charming , plenty of games even for indoors if it rains .

The private bay beach is a two minute walk and the sunset there deserves an evening picnic .

It was magical for my two boys they thought their hut like bunk beds were hideaways . It's actually better that there is no TV.

The location is amazing , this is the side of the island to stay no questions asked .

If you want to entairtain the kids do the pirate adventure and the farm tour . If you want to buy beer make sure and go to the liquor store by the airport .

You need a car to stay here .

My husband and I have spent over thirty years vacationing on the Island and this year chose to stay in a different area. We were attracted by the privacy and solitude of what comes close to being your own island. The delightful vistas and tranquil setting is perfect for someone wanting to kick back and relax. Being close to Menemsha and its excellent fish markets we enjoyed seafood feasts on the lawn surrounded by unforgettable sunsets. Our two dogs roamed the property as if it was their own. This idyllic setting and large and comfortable house will make this a "repeat" vacation spot for us.

My wife, Dad, two kids and two labrador retrievers spent a week here in September of 2011, which is a beautiful time of year on Martha's Vineyard. Francie, one of the owners, went out of her way to address our questions prior to renting the property and remained in contact as needed during and after the rental period. She is also more than welcome to tell you about things to do while you are there. The description of the property on the website doesn't give it justice since no words can give it justice as it is absolutely stunning and one-of-a-kind. The privacy is incredible as you are essentially staying on an island connected only by a one lane road. The views are breathtaking from all directions from the house and from all areas of the "island" and you have acres of space and hundreds of yards of beach to roam/fish/lounge with your family and canines. The interior was spotless when we arrived and is also atypical from most rental properties because it actually looks like a family lives there when you arrive and there are lots of games and toys and books and binoculars and even an old electric Doors-era organ. The house itself is just as the website describes in that is very comfortable and lived-in and not super fancy so you don't feel like you have to tiptoe from room to room. The kitchen is also quite professional and everything you would need to prepare gourmet meals every night, as we did, are there. There is no TV, but we do not have one so it was a non-issue. There is wireless internet that works well so you can always watch things online if need be. I would highly recommend this property to my friends and family, and even President Obama if the secret service felt they could surround the perimeter safely, so enjoy it and know that wonderful memories made there will remain in your family for years to come.

It's nearly too good to be true - a quirkily fabulous family house on its own point in Menemsha Pond. Perfect for unforgettable Vineyard vacations in the classic style - big meals, lots of reading and walks, bocce and wiffle ball, paddling around and fishing.

I started fishing at the Vineyard in the fall during the early 70’s and fell in love with the Chilmark area, particularly the village of Menemsha. I subsequently started family vacations during the summer months. Eventually, my daughter and my son both married and blessed us with four grandchildren. Unfortunately, many times we did not have a location which could accommodate all of us. Mary and I were forced to spend part of the vacation with one family and the balance with the other. We then discovered Chocker’s Point. It comfortably accommodatesd ten of us. The house has a lot of character, there is adequate sleeping quarters, complete kitchen, great dinning area, and plenty of space if you want some private time. We enjoyed gathering around the conversation pit each evening. The lawn area is huge….great for ball games, racing, and flying kites. There are several areas on the large parcel of property for swimming, crabbing, fishing and kayaking. Our favorite was the sand bar on the channel leading into Quitsa Pond. Each morning, the four grandchildren would select a location. No need to load ten people and their gear to travel to a beach. In the event we all decided to return to the house, we simply left everything at the swimming area. I guess our experience can be summarized in one word….wonderful!! Already booked for 2012.
