Take a leisurely stroll through one of the most charming and
desirable areas on Martha's Vineyard -- or anywhere in the country,
for that matter. Founded in 1835 as a Methodist campground, the
Martha's Vineyard Campmeeting Association began as a group of tents
surrounding an impressive tabernacle. Soon the tents were replaced
by cozy Victorian cottages featuring bright colors, welcoming
porches, and sumptuous decoration. Lovingly preserved, often with
little changed since the nineteenth century, these cottages today
transport residents and visitors back to an era when life was
simpler and community spirit thrived. View a wonderful selection of
the more than 300 cottages still remaining in the campground (now a
National Historic Landmark), plus many of the larger and more
ornate homes in the surrounding Oak Bluffs area. Delight in the
architectural details of these fascinating structures, many
designed by the prolific S.F. Pratt. This book will be a treasured
memento for all who have visited and been captivated by this
enchanting island.
