What's it like in Fall and Winter?

If you love the cooler temperatures, deserted beaches and just getting away from it all, the ideal time for you to visit the North Fork is between mid-September and mid-May.

Winter 

December brings promises of a winter wonderland, mountains of fresh, white snow and a photographer's dream. Bring your 4 wheel drive, your snow mobile, or enjoy watching the ice sailing on the bay. Snuggle up for Valentines Weekend in our cozy, fully equipped home and celebrate the first green shoots of Spring with a fresh lamb roast for Easter.

There are now some 40 vineyards on the North Fork of Long Island, most with tasting rooms and events throughout the year.
