DIRECTIONS TO THE INN
BY CAR: From the Vineyard Haven ferry dock you will be directed to the left onto Water Street. Proceed to the stop sign in the five corner intersection and take a right. Take the next right onto Main Street. Thorncroft Inn is one mile up at 460 Main Street. Look for our sign on the left.
From the seasonal Oak Bluffs ferry dock, go straight off the dock and straight ahead thru the intersection at the head of the ferry dock. You are now on the road to Vineyard Haven. Proceed two miles on this main road, which is clearly marked. As you enter Vineyard Haven, you will see a Citgo gas station on the left as you enter the five corner intersection. Bear slightly to the left thru the intersection. Take your next right onto Main Street and we are located at 460 Main Street, one mile up on the left.
BY FOOT: If you are
walking from the Vineyard
Haven ferry dock, proceed straight ahead up Union Street.
Take right onto Main Street. Go one mile up Main Street and we are on
the left. Unless you have light luggage, it would be simpler and easier
to take a taxi, which meet every incoming ferry.
