About

I'm Dani. I've been getting on that ferry since I was in elementary school. Family trips, friends, solo, and now with my own family. The island doesn't surprise me anymore — but it still rewards people who pay attention.

I run a small coastal real estate consulting business in Newport. The Vineyard is in my professional and personal orbit. I don't gatekeep; I want people to have a good time and not waste money or time. Other bloggers sometimes link to me for "the real scoop."

I always check the Steamship Authority before giving ferry advice. I won't recommend a rental I haven't vetted or that isn't on a trusted source like MVacay.com. Lis Bluford runs it — it's the first place I send people when they ask where to stay.
