About this Location

Some 1100 feet of pond shore are conserved here, as well as sloping grasslands, salt marsh, and a freshwater pond. It is a pocket of pastoral land in an otherwise suburbanized area. Notable here are the short-distance views of Felix Neck on the opposite shore of Majors Cove, the long-distance views of Cape Poge, and the thick patch of switchgrass near the water’s edge. Rare plants include eastern gama-grass, whose spreading the land bank is seeking to encourage via proximate patch mowing.

Access is from where the County Road meets the Edgartown-Vineyard Haven Road. Travel 0.9 miles on the County Road and turn right onto the Pulpit Rock Road. Two dirt roads are located on the right 0.3 miles down this road; turn into the second road, which is marked by a land bank logo sign. The trailhead and bicycle rack are located at the end of this road.
