What to know about MV (Martha's Vineyard)
The ferry for MV is through Steamship Authority, and leaves from Woodshole which is about an hour drive from the house. 🚗There are signs for parking once you get off the highway. Once you park, there is a free shuttle that runs every 20-30 minutes. You should plan to leave about 2 hours before your ferry is scheduled to depart. Rates & tickets are available on the Steamship Authority website. Bikes don’t need to be reserved in advance (but if you call, they will reserve them for you), there are many bike places you’ll see once you get off the ferry, they are all good options.

What to know about Nantucket (ACK)
Freedom Cruise Line offers a ferry to Nantucket leaving directly from Harwichport (very convenient!!) It is a bit pricier than using Steamship Authority, but worth it because it’s a 5 minute drive to the ferry. The second option is booking through Steamship Authority which leaves from Hyannis which is about a 30 minute drive from the house. The price difference is $30 roundtrip. Booking for both is available on their websites! Freedom Cruise Line is a smaller boat, and requires advance booking, Steamship is a much larger boat, so booking same day is typically not an issue if its last minute!
