They were absolutely beautiful and so were so many other specimens. We had an added bonus of seeing sculptures and paintings throughout the gardens. Entry was only $5 per adult which was a bargain. They also have a gift shop and plants for sale. This is a worthwhile place to visit on Marthas Vineyard. Check out their calendar as they have many programs for adults and children to enjoy from educational activities to Walking tours and painting classes.

The owner is very knowledgeable, with a strong interest in textiles, ceramics and crafts. She travels during the winter in order to find new emerging artists, but she also features the best local artists. Prices run the gamut from affordable to out of sight. Openings are fun and friendly. The staff is really helpful, too. This gallery has stood the test of time, and it deserves a shout out. If you enjoy discovering new artists and meeting new people, come to an opening at the Shaw Cramer Gallery. I'll see you there.

I am not particularly into art but it was interesting to see some of contrasting pieces in particular (Charlie Brown cartoon with picture of artwork rhino).

I can see this is not a tourist trap, since I am just the fourth reviewer in ten years. Full…read moredisclosure, I did not think I was giving five stars when I was looking at places to visit, approaching from the outside, paying at the desk. What changed? So, here's our story. The desk said they would join us to a walking tour already in progress. The tour guides just circle the house, and so you would then leave the tour at the point you entered. In our case, the guide walked downstairs with a lady who immediately took her leave, so we had the tour guide to ourselves. (Good reason to visit places off-season.) As we walked around the rooms, she was explaining things, I was reading, photographing, asking questions, sometimes that didn't have answers... and I started to get the distinct impression that this is a truly local place reflecting what life is like in Centerville. And that's my favorite type of museum. Well. Let me tell you. Because it was just us, the guide started talking a little bit more about stuff that interested us, like some of the local history and families behind the place. And bit by bit, they softened, with smiles, and let us explore things that may not always be on view to the public. And I won't go into details on this public review. But that is how you feel like family instead of a tourist. And by the time we were done looking at the dresses, and the mannequins, and the armaments, and the anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats... Oh, right. Centerville. Come on a day when it's not crowded, and I bet you'll come away with the five star sentiment yourself.

Book a nice outing for me and my friends couple first time golfers. After a good first 9 proceeding in under general pace of play time we were approached on hole 14 by a ranger. Guy was freaking pissed. Clearly didn't like that a group of young men were playing a nice round with a couple of first timer comes over to us and starts busting our chops about pace of play. This is the first time we saw or talked to this individual and he just came at us firing. What started as a very normal conversation to just pick up the pace, escalated into somewhat of a threat from this loser who clearly didn't get his frustrations out within the first couple words he said. We carried on and then our nice kind ranger buddy that we met before shows up again the next hole . What does he expect for something to change after 1 hole. Eventually he came back on the 16th hole and started clapping at us, something that I felt was incredibly disrespectful especially on the golf course acting like we're a bunch of lost sheep that he needs to heard in. At this point I was so sick of this tool that I honestly started playing slower just out of pure frustration. Guy doesn't have an ounce of grace in his body and even if he did certainly not for us. Wish I took his name because I would be dropping it in full fashion right now and honestly I would hope the course would see this. I give it 2 stars because it's a nice course for pretty cheap but if you want to be respected or have a nice time with your group apparently this isn't the place for you. Only way i'll ever go back is if I get to give that bozo a piece of my mind. Childish behavior, maybe don't send out 6 groups within 3 tee blocks of time and you won't hit a backup. Embarrassing
