The Mink Meadows clubhouse.
Mink Meadows Golf Club’s location is ideal if you’re looking to be away from summer crowds. It lies adjacent to Tashmoo Woods, a low-density enclave of private homes and condominiums, and is nearby the 90-acre West Chop woods nature preserve.
The town of Vineyard Haven with two supermarkets, two movie theaters, two seafood markets, various boutiques, shops, restaurants and much more is just a five-minute drive away. And if you are thinking of using your home in the off-season, Vineyard Haven is the most year-round location of the five towns on the island.
Private clubs in the area include the West Chop Club and Vineyard Haven Yacht Club. Membership in both clubs is dependent on sponsorship by members and membership availability. Send more more information about Mink Meadows Homes!
