Hi there! I’m Lis 👋

Three years ago, my husband Court and I created MVacay (Social Media, Website + Mobile App) to streamline the Martha’s Vineyard visitor experience. Founded in 2019, we realized visitors were struggling to find one centralized resource or updated body of knowledge on what the island offered. Our goal was to create an accessible solution for both islanders and non-islanders to navigate and explore the best of the island. Our content has evolved over time as we responded to our follower’s needs. We got you!

What we currently do now on our other platforms:

• Weekend Update Infographics

• Seasonal Updates on Restaurant Openings + Closures

• Frequently Asked Questions

While that’s been fun, it’s clear that that there is more that we can do!

What we hope to do on Substack and deliver to your inbox:

• For anyone, free:

  • Improve our Weekend Updates into an email format with links to registrations and spotlights

  • Answer a Weekly FAQ in a more thorough manner

• For subscribers:

  • Spotlight new and evolving local businesses, restaurants and artisans

  • Exclusive Ask Us Anything posts

  • Ability to join and comment within the MVacay community posts

As individuals, we strive to be honest and unbiased. You can always count on us to promote the businesses where we personally spend our time and money, and simply not mention the businesses that we feel aren’t as deserving of that time and money.

We’ve been running MVacay as a passion project for years now, and would love the opportunity to make even more content possible through paid subscriptions. We hope you follow along! 😊
