If you’d rather book early, hotels in Woodbury, Syosset, and Jericho are all an easy drive to Crest Hollow.
While You’re Here
Long Island in August is at its best — vineyards on the North Fork, beaches on the South Shore, and the city a quick train away.
Coming early or staying late? Tell us in your RSVP and we’ll send a few favorites.
