Plan Your Stay
While You’re Here
Nestled under a canopy of old-growth oak trees and skirted by a lawn dotted with Adirondack chairs, The Pridwin feels like a retreat from a lost era—and that’s because it is. There’s a host of experiences to enjoy—from kayaking and paddle boarding, to pickle ball, croquet, and tennis. Hike scenic Mashomack Preserve, and explore the island at your leisure by bike or Moke™. Plus, you’ll love thoughtful touches like a deluxe Continental Breakfast each morning of your stay, rounding out the ultimate Hamptons escape on Long Island’s East End.
Explore our Seasons
As spring blooms in Shelter Island, The Pridwin’s season begins. The expansive lawn turns a vibrant green, dotted with wildflowers and framed by budding trees, while the tranquil waters of Peconic Bay reflect the warmth of longer days. Guests can enjoy peaceful walks along the shoreline, fresh-air dining with seasonal fare, and the return of outdoor adventures like kayaking and biking.
There’s a certain kind of summer that lives only in memory—crisp linen sheets after sun-drenched afternoons, the scent of salt air carried on a bay breeze, Adirondack chairs on lush green grass besides blooming hydrangeas. At The Pridwin, that summer still exists.
Mornings begin with coffee on lawn and the distant hum of sailboats setting off. Afternoons stretch into golden hours by the pool, or a lazy kayak paddle on the water. Evenings bring BBQs on the lawn, live music on porch, and the soft flicker of lanterns as the sunset slips into night.
Join us at The Pridwin for Fall Fest, a celebration of all things autumn. Bring the whole family for a weekend filled with classic fall activities like pumpkin painting, sack races, and live music.
As The Pridwin readies for a new season during its annual Winter Refresh, the planning begins! We invite you to reserve your next season’s stay ahead—and to consider staying at one of our sister Cape Resorts properties for a cold-weather hibernation warmup.
