Martha's Vineyard, an island 7 miles off the coast of Massachusetts, has been a popular summer destination for years. The island, which sees as many as 200,000 people each summer, is known for its beautiful scenery and selection of mom-and-pop shops.
Many visitors have made Martha's Vineyard their summertime escape, building homes ranging from cozy cottages to multimillion-dollar estates. Several celebrities, including James Taylor, Carly Simon, and the Obamas, have even owned properties on the island.
I spent $79 on a round-trip ferry ticket from New Bedford, Massachusetts, to the island to attend the Martha's Vineyard Food and Wine Festival.
I'd taken the ferry a few years ago, but it was a little different than I remembered — here's what the experience was like.
