WALK to Eastville Point Beach and Lagoon (saltwater) pond.

.

As you approach EVENTIDE, you'll recognize its large, wrap-around porch and white lattice from our online pictures. It is near East Chop, halfway between the downtowns of Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven at 1.7 miles to either. Your family or group will enjoy the shade of the porch and the sunny yard bordered by hedges and a nice white fence. Two picnic tables seat 9 and 4, respectively. The fully-furnished home has a well-equipped kitchen. Everything needed for cooking and serving meals is provided. Just add your favorite foods or enjoy a variety of 'take-out.' The dining room, living room, 2 baths and 5 inviting bedrooms, comfortably sleeping 9, make the house a home. The living room has cable TV, VCR-DVD player, WiFi, couch, chairs, cushions, etc. Playing cards, games, puzzles and many books are provided for your enjoyment. Across the breezeway from the kitchen is the laundry room: washer, dryer, charcoal grill, yard games and another shower.

Bringing A Car With You?: We provide an excellent Island map for our guests. A great, inexpensive bus system connects with the airport, ferry terminals, our house and most points on the Island. 1-, 3- and 7-day passes are available on board any bus at deep discounts. Mopeds and bikes may be rented near both ferry terminals. Please note that mopeds are not allowed on the bike paths.

A ferry reservation is required to bring a car to Martha's Vineyard Island. The Steamship Authority ferries begin accepting car reservations in early January, so that's when a reservation should be made. They operate between Woods Hole on Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard.

Check-in time at our home is 4:00 pm, and check-out is at 11am. If you choose to leave your car on the mainland, there is a calendar-day charge of $12 to $15 at most ferry ports. Passenger-only ferries operate from Woods Hole, Falmouth and New Bedford, MA and Quonset Point, RI. You may also fly to the Vineyard: Call CapeAir or go to their website for their schedules and reservations.

BIKE TRAILS: One of the many bike paths, goes by the house, continuing several miles to the Vineyard Haven-Edgartown Road. From there, the bike path follows the road to Vineyard Haven and, in the other direction, to Edgartown. There are also bike trails through the State Forest, so you really can 'get away from it all.'

Public Transportation makes a car less necessary. We use the local bus system, with a stop close to the house. Fares are simple to understand. Based upon 2012, they are $1 per town traveled. Deeply-discounted passes are sold on-board any bus. (exact change or bills, please). One example of the savings is a round-trip to Aquinnah and the famous clay cliffs, costing $10, while a 1-day pass is only $7. A 3-day pass is $15 and a 7-day is just $25.

Do you want to have a car with you, but can't get a boat reservation? On-Island car rental agencies include Hertz and Avis, along with some local ones. Contact them at their websites or toll-free numbers. Car rental rates on the Vineyard are higher than on the Mainland.

More Vineyard Info: The Martha's Vineyard Chamber of Commerce is located near each ferry terminal: Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven (Tisbury). We can also recommend the Vineyard Gazette and Martha's Vineyard Times newspapers, available at the Vineyard Haven Cumberland Farms and at Pharmacies and General stores in most towns. There are several free publications about Island happenings, which you may pick up on the ferries, at the terminals and in various stores on The Vineyard.

YOUR VINEYARD VACATION HOME is halfway between the downtowns of Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven. It is easily recognized by its large, wrap-around porch and white lattice.

The yard is bordered on 2 sides by hedges with dense forest beyond. A solid white fence runs along the third side and the house faces Temahigan Ave and the ocean. Easy access to town is 5 minutes by car or bus and about 10-15 minutes on a bike. Trips to the farther points on the island are best reached by bus or car.

Newcomers to Martha's Vineyard will appreciate an MV Sightseeing tour as an introduction to the Island. Their buses meet most of the daytime ferries in Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven. Rent bikes and visit the Chambers of Commerce near both ferry terminals. Need a car? It is less expensive to bring your car over from the mainland than it is to rent one on the island. On-Island rental cars range from $300 to $1000 per week; a ferry reservation costs about $140, round-trip. SteamshipAuthority.com accepts reservation beginning on January 15, 2013. Reserve early, as spaces quickly fill.

Other Activities: Oldest carousel in US; golf, mini golf, hiking, kayaking, video/pinball arcades, shopping, movie theaters, night clubs.

Oak Bluffs has the most restaurants, serving both American and ethnic foods. There's always a nice variety for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is something for everyone in terms of food and entertainment. We highly recommend Linda Jean's Restaurant on Circuit Avenue (the Oak Bluffs main street) for family dining or just a cup of tea or 'coffee and.' They are open all day and their prices are reasonable. We suggest you get there by 5:00 p.m. for an evening meal.

Downtown Vineyard Haven has a restored movie theater as well as restaurants, cafes, clothing, souvenir shops.

Island-made candy and ice cream are plentiful in Vineyard Haven, Oak Bluffs and Edgartown.

If you take a ride to Aquinnah to see the famous clay cliffs, be sure to stop by Alley's General Store in Chilmark. It really does have a little of everything including a working Post Office.

Have fun at the mini-golf in Vineyard Haven. They also have ice cream for after the game.

Golf: Public golf courses are located in Vineyard Haven and Oak Bluffs. The nearest, Farm Neck, is less than a mile from the house. Vineyard Haven also has miniature golf with home-made ice cream on the premises.
