MIDWEEKS

20% off all midweeks after Labor Day!

Enjoy September midweeks at the cabin for $56/night ($68 non-members).

Single-night midweek reservations after Labor Day!

The required midweek two-night stay has been dropped for September. In addition to multi-night stays, guests can also reserve any midweek day after Labor Day as a single-night booking.

Any midweek September day is wonderful at the Cabin.  Read to the sound of crashing waves (we’ve got beach umbrellas)!  Practice yoga in our gazebo (we’ve got yoga mats)!  Trek to the Lighthouse or Ocean Beach for ice cream.  Kayak or canoe in the Great South Bay.  

And, we have a few special events planned:

  • Wed.-Fri. Sept. 7-9: Knitting Circle 
  • Mon.-Wed., Sept. 26-28: Beach Walk and Stretch Yoga with Dionne C. Monsanto
  • Wed.-Fri., Sept. 28-30: Acrylic Painting. Led by artist Deb Stelnick (of Painting Party with StelnikArt)
