Where do I begin to tell the story of how great a vacation can be? A sweet vacation in a town many people - including this native Long Islander - have never even heard of. Southold. In my opinion, this place is more fabulous than the pricey Hamptons.
The house was absolutely perfect for me and my four girlfriends. Jeff, the owner, pulled out all the stops in terms of creature comforts. The house was well stocked with so many unexpected, but much appreciated items, that I simply cannot remember all of them! (i.e., condiments, wine, balsamic vinegar, spices, local beer, ice cream, cleaning products, kayaks, paddleboards.) The works! We dined on the covered patio every night after visiting local farm stands, wineries and the divine Southold fish market. An assortment of fresh herbs growing in decorative containers on the patio complimented our meals. The beautiful skylight in the kitchen gave us the right amount of energy and inspiration to cook. (It didn't hurt that we had plenty of local wine to enjoy while cooking, either.)
The back yard backs up to Goose Creek so it was easy to take the kayaks and paddle boards out to go exploring. So peaceful!
There was a blue tooth speaker available so we hooked it up to the laptop so we could have music to sing and dance to. We had a ball and my friends said it was hands down the best girl's trip we ever had!
