Shocking the neighbors with a porch on the chilly north side (to better see Mount Greylock), Herman Melville lived at Arrowhead, his 18th-century home, from 1850 to 1863.

Wander the nature trail or ponder the new community farm, focusing on crops Melville grew here (eggplant, peas, brassicas). Then take the guided tour of the home. Replicas of the harpoon in Melville’s study, sadly, aren’t for sale. Console yourself with a “Call Me Ishmael” T-shirt.

Herman Melville wrote Moby Dick here. Great views, and great tours of his home by knowlegable docents.
