This summer, forget the airfare and stay right here on the East Coast. From Martha's Vineyard to the mountains of Woodstock, the East Coast has no shortage of places worth your attention. The harder part is knowing which ones actually deliver. These five properties—spread across New England, Long Island, and Upstate New York—cover the range: a 130-year-old harbor landmark on Martha's Vineyard, a Maine oceanfront resort with four decades of coastal credibility, and everything in between.

Accommodations range from smart, renovated guest rooms to the stand-alone Captain's Cottages ideal for family gatherings, up to the Presidential Skyhouse for those who want the island's finest address. Dining spans three distinct venues: Bettini Restaurant for contemporary American cuisine with harbor views, the laid-back Behind the View cocktail lounge, and Roxy Pool Bar for al fresco afternoons poolside. A true crown jewel of the Vineyard.

The Omni Homestead Resort
Hot Springs, VA
Tucked into the Allegheny Mountains of Virginia, The Omni Homestead Resort has welcomed guests for more than 250 years—24 U.S. presidents among them. The resort's 483 guest rooms reflect the full sweep of that legacy, dressed in rich fabrics and traditional Virginia character. Activities run the full spectrum: two championship golf courses (including the nation's oldest first tee in continuous use), four clay tennis courts, a zip line, natural hot springs at the historic Warm Springs Pools, and winter skiing and ice skating. The two-acre Allegheny Springs water park keeps families busy, while The Spa offers a quieter counterpoint. Eight restaurants and bars round out the experience, with regional wines and dress-code dining that honors the resort's grand traditions. A landmark property in every sense.

Twin Gables of Woodstock
Woodstock, NY
Created by artists for artists nearly a century ago, Twin Gables of Woodstock is a design-centric boutique hotel occupying a Victorian home on Tinker Street in the heart of Woodstock village. The property dates to the 1880s and was established as a hotel in 1926 at the height of Woodstock's first creative flowering—revived in 2019 with that bohemian spirit firmly intact. Rooms are light, airy, and hung with hand-selected artwork. Mornings begin with a complimentary continental breakfast of locally sourced fruit and baked goods, served in the restored historic kitchen or on the sunny terrace. The Secret Garden offers a gazebo, fire pit, and native landscaping for quiet moments between gallery visits and hikes up Overlook Mountain. Catskills trails, local eateries, and the Museum at Bethel Woods are all within easy reach.
