   7. TISBURY MEADOW PRESERVE

Size
83.3 Acres

Description
This property’s dozen roadside acres are grassy and hilly; notable is the white oak near the hilltop with its shapely crown. At the base of the hill is the Mai Fane House, a farmstead restored by caretakers at no expense to the land bank; its scale in the context of the fields is a reminder of Vineyard architectural standards prevalent until the most recent decades. Geologists will especially like the red trail in the woodlands, as it follows the crest of a long esker.

Uses
Nature study, hiking, picnicking, mountain-biking, horseback-riding, dog-walking (town bylaw requires leashing), hunting (with permission).

Directions
Travel on the State Road in the direction of West Tisbury and turn left 0.4 miles after the Lake Tashmoo overlook; trailhead and bicycle rack are located here.
