Hotel Moraine

Greenport

Featured In

Opening Memorial Day Weekend, the 20-room Hotel Moraine sits on three acres overlooking the Long Island Sound. By now, the folks behind your favorite rosé vineyard Croteaux (and the former owners of The Menhaden) know how to bottle a magic elixir of nature, adventure, and North Fork joie de vivre. Go for a dip in the heated saltwater pool or take out a complimentary SUP board, then cool off with a sundowner on the hotel’s pristine beachfront. Gather the family at the game cottage, where kids can get crafty building birdhouses or tie-dyeing. While you’d be utterly content staying put, playing bocce, watching classic movies on the lawn, eating lobster rolls, and drinking rosé, Hotel Moraine leads tempting excursions, like wine tasting, farm tours, boating, fishing, and swimming.
Nearby activities: The hotel is less than two miles from the historic Greenport village and many delightful roadside stops, so hop on a complimentary cruiser and pedal the Long Island road less traveled. Some may know the drill here: the dreamy Provençal setting at Lavender by the Bay, quiches and homemade tomato sauce at KK’s the Farm, seafood mainstays The Frisky Oyster and Noah’s, Aldo’s for a latte and D’Latte for gelato. After strolling the coastline at 67 Steps beach at the end of Sound Rd, swing by the Piano Bar for live music at The Halyard, just a four minute bike ride from the hotel.
How to get there without a car: Take the LIRR or Hampton Jitney directly to Greenport. The hotel’s house car can facilitate local pickups and drop-offs.
Total travel time: 2.5 hours by bus, three hours by train.
