Oaks Bluffs Inn-Martha’s Vineyard

Martha’s Vineyard or “The Vineyard” as it sometimes called has no shortage of history or lore. Originally inhabited by the Wampanoag people, the Island was known in the Massachusett language as Noepe or “land amid the streams.” As it grew in popularity and renown, the Island became a swank destination for dignitaries, artists, and titans of industry alike. Not much has changed throughout the years as modern day presidents, celebrities, and vacationers flock to the small piece of paradise off the Cape Cod coast. With nineteen beaches, a plethora of restaurants offering unique farm (or sea)-to-table delights, and attractions ranging from art to music to eco-tourism, The Vineyard remains one of the most awe-inspiring places in the world.
