Bespoke Experiences at The Menhaden

June 14, 2023

Here at The Menhaden, we not only supply you with premium boutique hospitality in the heart of historic Greenport Village: Our 16-room hotel also serves as a well-positioned launchpad for exploring the many attractions and lovely scenery of the North Fork of Long Island.

Self-guided sightseeing, recreation, and R&R are very much an option, of course. But we also offer our guests something truly special: curated bespoke experiences showing off some of the very best of the North Fork.

Bespoke North Fork Long Island Experiences at The Menhaden

You can keep tabs on up-to-date bespoke experiences we’re providing on the same page where we list our (irresistible) exclusive offers and packages. We definitely encourage you to check in regularly to see what’s currently on tap.

Our Fall 2022 options are certainly representative of just how fabulous these bespoke Menhaden experiences are. For example, you can enjoy a custom picnic pack of artisan cheeses, snacks, and a bottle of local vino on a visit to scenic 67 Steps Beach via our Picnic at 67 Steps experience. Or we can supply you with a top-shelf s’mores-making kit for a firepit hangout atop our hotel—basking in the gorgeous views overlooking Greenport Harbor and Shelter Island—through Roofdeck S’mores.

The wine included in the 67 Steps Beach picnic kit isn’t the only way to sample the caliber of the North Fork Long Island winemaking industry on a Menhaden stay. Enjoy our private Custom Wine Tour of three local wineries on a personalized itinerary with your own driver, or savor wine flights and gourmet snacks with your choice of Macari Vineyards Experiences.

You can also roll up your sleeves and learn the ins-and-outs of tasting spirits and the science of distilling with our Matchbook Distilling experience, which goes down in the distillery’s Apothecary and sees you taking home a bottle of your own blended gin.

Learn firsthand about a venerable Long Island industry with our Founders Oysters Experience, touring that Peconic Bay farm on an oyster boat and mastering the tricky art of shucking.

Or how about a little me-time wellness? Our Hands-On Experience treats you to an hourlong massage of the finest kind, with couples options available.

For some unforgettable holiday experiences, the Village of Greenport is hosting it’s annual Tree Lighting and Parade of Lights on Saturday, December 5th. There’s also a holiday tree lighting at The Shoppes at East Wind!

For those wondering what Christmas was like many years ago, Hallockville Museum Farm is a perfect holiday trip back in time. You can also participate in Greenport’s annual Shellabration, a celebration of seafood and local pride.
