The rural town of West Tisbury is known for its historic character. It includes a farmer's market at the Grange Hall, artisan fair, art galleries, Alley's General Store, Polly Hill arboretum, and much more. Alley's General Store is a treasure with nostalgic allure where you will fine everyday necessities to items with vintage appeal as well as island souvenirs. You might enjoy just hanging out on the porch with your favorite beverage, chatting with locals and watching the passerby's. Next door is the sandwich shop, where ingredients are locally grown whenever possible and is open for breakfast and lunch daily.

Cedar Tree Neck Wildlife Sanctuary is a great place for hiking and maybe a refreshing dip at the beach. There are many hiking paths; download "TrailsMV" app for interactive maps of the 220+ trails, 100 of which are on protected property. Lambert's Cove Beach is accessible to West Tisbury residents and renter's only with a valid beach pass. Secluded scenic beach with views of Vineyard Sound and the Elizabeth Islands. It is accessed by a wooded path away from the hustle and bustle of larger tourist areas. All this just 8 minutes "up-island" from the Vineyard Haven port.

All the different towns of the island are easily accessible by car with short distances. Best to have a car, but VTA has a great bus system to take you around the island, even carrying your bikes if you like.

Cycling is a great way to enjoy the Vineyard and the 44 miles of scenic bike paths begin off the quiet road without even crossing a street.The house is located right off the bike path and you need not cross any streets to access it, just bike down to the end, make a right on Catboat and cross a short patch of woods onto it.

All in all, this a a great, affordable place to stay where you can enjoy the island quietly if you like, or and engage in the hustle and bustle of the busier towns, none of which are far away.
