That photo is not detailed enough for anybody to ID the plant. You do have several native Vitis (grape) species in your area, including; V. acerifolia, aestivalis, cinera, labrusca, palmata, riparia, rotundifolia, rupestris, and vulpina.

I had no idea there were that many wild grape varieties. Much less in my area.

Is this photo better?

If the leaves are just 2-4 inches long and tendrils are simple, then V. rotundifolia is indicated. If the leaves are 4-6 inches long, tendrils are branched, and major veins on lower leaf surfaces are moderately to densely pubescent, then V. vulpina might fit. V. riparia is also possible for your plant, but those usually have longer, more slender tips on leaf teeth.
