While I was living in NYC, my relatives had a home on Martha's Vineyard. I still love going back and exploring local towns.

Do I have a favorite season to visit? I know you'll think it very specific, but I love the two weeks in November before the crowds arrive for Thanksgiving. The weather is perfect for autumn leaf changing walks. Best of all, in early November, there isn't a soul on the beach!

But Chilmark is a joy to visit year-round. It's known for its family farms, beaches, and scenic cliff views.
