welcome to the
north fork
This guide was developed to provide helpful information to both the
first time visitor and those who know the North Fork well. It is broken into sections as listed in the Table of Contents. In addition, we
have informational sections, which we hope answer all your questions,
such as where to eat, where to stay, and what to do on the North Fork.
If you have additional questions, please call us at (631) 477-1383 or
(631) 298-5757 or email us at: info@northfork.org.
What is the North Fork?
The North Fork is a term used to describe the 11 small towns and villages
located on Long Island’s East End – this area is surrounded by the Peconic
Bay and the Long Island Sound. The North Fork is approximately 80
miles east of Manhattan and encompasses Aquebogue, Jamesport, Laurel,
Mattituck, New Suffolk, Cutchogue, Peconic, Southold, Greenport, East
Marion, and Orient.
How do you get to the North Fork?
The North Fork can be reached in a variety of ways:
• By car or bus — from the west via Long Island Expressway
• By train — from the west via Long Island Rail Road
• By ferry — from Connecticut via Cross Sound Ferry or Port Jeff Ferry
Once out to the North Fork, there are two main roadways when driving
through from points west — and both routes give access to beautiful
vineyards and flourishing farm stands. Drive Route 48 (Sound Ave.)
for a scenic path that bypasses the village centers and offers a dual-lane
highway. Alternatively, Route 25 (Main Rd.) is a great route to experience
the towns that encompass the North Fork. Most village centers are located
off this roadway.
How can I learn more about the North Fork?
The best way to learn about the North Fork is to take the trip and discover
it firsthand. Once here, visit the information centers located in the towns
of Laurel and Greenport. These centers provide a variety of brochures and
maps as well as an ambassador who can offer personalized suggestions
for dining, lodging, activities, and entertainment. To learn more about
the area and map your visit before you arrive, visit www.northfork.org
or read on...
When is the best time to visit the North Fork?
The North Fork is truly a destination for all seasons.
• During the summer months the temperature typically ranges from
70-80 degrees, making it the ideal time to enjoy boating, the beautiful
beaches, the trails, and state parks.
• The fall brings harvest season on the North Fork – a great time for
fresh roasted corn, pumpkin picking, or a visit to one of the 34+ vineyards
for tastings and tours.
• Winter season is the perfect time to cozy up with Long Island
wine, escape reality, and experience the quiet and tranquil wonder of the
North Fork.
• Spring brings beautiful blossoms, produce, and the opportunity
to enjoy the warmer weather without the hustle and bustle of the
summer season.
What are the most popular
attractions on the North Fork?
Wine tastings along the LI Wine Trail, art galleries, lighthouses, and
museums are all popular activities. The surrounding waters offer
countless options during the warmer months, as do the various street
and town fairs. Shop for everything from designer clothing to antiques.
Dine in eclectic restaurants. Visit farm stands and wineries and enjoy
outdoor concerts.

Taste North Fork – nothing describes the
North Fork experience better! So many residents,
businesses, farms, fishermen, chefs and waiters,
so many North Forkers have worked for so many
years so hard to achieve a life-style we love to share
with you to enjoy! This Guide was put together by
volunteers and local business people (the North
Fork Promotion Council) to warmly welcome you;
and to make sure you may enjoy our wonderful
region as much as we do! It is intended to help you
navigate the North Fork during your visit: we have
so much to offer to visitors that without this North
Fork Guide you might easily miss one of our many
hidden wonders.
The North Fork has so many things to do, taste and
experience for such a small region: our agricultural
heritage includes our vineyards, our farms and
farm-stands and our proud (shell) fishing industry. Our restaurants are in the forefront of international
fine cuisine, world renowned for their culinary
interpretations of fresh local Bounty – supplied
in many cases by our own North Fork farms. We
all work hard to provide this unique experience:
to allow you as visitor a farm-to-table experience
unique to the North Fork, equal to the best in the
world! So come meet and support our farmers!
But that’s not all. Visit our small shops, unique to
the North Fork. Our beaches and natural beauty.
We are surrounded by water: the Sound and the
Great Peconic Bay, our creeks can be enjoyed by
boaters small and large. Have an amazing sailing
or fishing experience. Witness the most amazing
migration of birds Fall, Winter and Spring in our
many parks and preserves. Every day on the North
Fork is a festival. There is so much to do, for the
entire family. A wonderful destination truly for all
seasons!
Our historic villages of Greenport and Orient, our
hamlets all still tell a quiet story of times past, and
provide a glimpse into the proud and private nature
of our residents, and their calm New England ways.
We ask you not just to enjoy, but also to respect
our North Fork – and remember to slow down and
relax. This will provide you with one of the most
important benefits of your visit!

How Southold
Names Came to Be...
By Chris Baiz
The names of the North Fork’s towns have evolved through many
turns from its earliest native American proprietors’ names, to the
early Anglo-European designations, to changes mandated by the
Post Office Department of the United States. A brief outline as
to how the villages and hamlets of the North Fork came to their
present day designations is set forth. Even the coming of the
railroad, connecting eastern Long Island - New England’s southern
tier - with New York City’s western development, influenced present
day names of the North Fork.
In keeping with the English usage of that time, “village” refers to
a community of people and their homesteads which had a church
spire, or two, within it. More than just a place of worship, it was a
place of governance and community. “Hamlet” was reserved for a
very small village, just a cluster of a few houses without a church
[spire], which in turn was usually associated with a “village” up the
road.

Corchaug (Cutchogue)
Cutchogue is situated in the widest land mass between Long Island
Sound and the Peconic Bays east of Mattituck Inlet. Its Native
American name was Corchaug which translated roughly to “principal
place”. Cutchogue, along with today’s Mattituck and Orient, were
the first new lands designated for settlement. This expansion was
needed by 1661, as the second generation of the new settlers needed
their own space to establish their agrarian livelihoods. The broad
extent of the field and woodlands in Corchaug offered great appeal
for agricultural expansion.
Cutchogue’s most important architectural antiquity is The Old
House. Originally built in Southold in 1649 by John Budd one
of the 1640 settlers, he gave the medieval style colonial house to
his newly wed daughter Anna and Benjamin Horton. The house
was dismantled in Southold and moved to and reassembled in
Cutchogue in 1661. This was a very common practice, even into the
early twentieth century, as it was more economical to move a house
than build one anew.
Cutchogue Village proper still remains quite compact with farm
fields stretching out the back doors of many Main Road houses and
obligatory church steeples reaching for the sky. Its farm lands, at
least half of all the farming acreage in the Town, still keeps it the
North Fork’s principal place for agriculture.

New Suffolk (New Suffolk)
Unique to the North Fork, New Suffolk is one of the first hamlets on Long
Island to be laid out in block plan, obviously a later thought in street layout.
This plan allowed every street to terminate at the water’s edge as New Suffolk
is surrounded by water on three sides. The name most likely comes from the
county in England that Southwold was within and which the 1640 settlers of
Southold gave to the County of Suffolk, Long Island.
25500 Main Road, Orient, 11957

orientinn@earthlink.net
www.orientinn-ny.com
As early as 1820, New Suffolk was the western terminus on the Peconic Bays
for the steamers making the run to New York City with intervening stops
at Southold, Greenport, and Orient. A small brick yard and a large oyster
company were other major economies leading to the permanence of New
Suffolk.
In 1900, the Holland Submarine Company opened a plant at New Suffolk to fit
out and test their first submarine vessels. These vessels were built in Elizabeth,
New Jersey. The first successful underwater boats were developed here at New
Suffolk, until the plant was moved to Groton, Connecticut in 1905.
By the 1930s, New Suffolk had become a thriving summer sport fishing arena
with a summer fleet of more than 200 party boats.

paradise. Enjoy long days of fishing and sunset cruises
out on the Peconic Bay or on the Long Island Sound.
Then dock in one of the public marinas in Greenport or
in Mattituck, and stroll into town for dinner and drinks.
Many of the North Fork marinas offer a variety of events
throughout the season, so be sure to check individual
calendar listings for upcoming activities. And if you
don’t assume boat ownership...check the grid provided

Discover World Class Fishing on the North Fork
Nicole Sinning
Some of the most diverse fishing
opportunities can be found right here on
the North Fork of Long Island. Whether
you’re freshwater fishing in the ponds
and lakes, saltwater fishing from the surf,
or going out on one of the North Fork’s
many charter and party boats, you will
not be disappointed in the North Fork
fishing experience.
Fishing on the North Fork begins in the
Spring, heats up in Summer and Fall, and
slows down in the early Winter. Before
you set out to do any type of fishing, visit
one of our local tackle shops where the
knowledgeable staff will set you up with
the right equipment and give you tips on
where to go.
The North Fork has many hidden
treasures in the form of freshwater ponds
and lakes. Fishing in freshwater can
be done from land or kayak, canoe, or
rowboat. The smaller size of freshwater
catches is enough to satisfy the itch before
the saltwater fishing season gets going.
June and July offer the unique
opportunity to catch fluke in Long Island
Sound from the surf. This can be done
using small bucktails and teasers tipped
with squid or spearing, fishing shallow flat
areas to deep drop offs. The best time to
catch is either morning or late afternoon
during an ebb tide.
Party boat fishing is a great way to take
the whole family out on the water and
catch a variety of local fish. Fluke, porgies,
sea bass, bluefish, weakfish, and striped
bass are commonly caught on party
boats. There are party boats sailing out of
Greenport, Orient Point, and Mattituck
Inlet. Reservations for party boats are not
required but are strongly encouraged in
order to ensure your place.
Interested in catching some of the
East End’s legendary striped bass?
With summer comes some of the most
exciting fishing offered on the North
Fork. Mattituck Inlet and Orient Point
are home to many charter boats with
experienced captains and crew eager
to help you catch that monster striper.
These boats personally cater to you and
your group providing the bait, tackle, and
local knowledge needed to catch a oncein-a-lifetime fish.
Blackfish is arguably one of the best
eating fish on the North Fork. The season
for blackfish arrives right on time in
the fall as the weather cools off and the
craving for a hearty soup like blackfish
chowder begins. Charter and party boats
can help you to catch blackfish and many
will even provide you with their favorite
recipes on how to cook them.

How Southold
Names Came to Be...
Hermitage (Peconic)
Peconic, native American for “a small place”, is the quintessential
hamlet after the English manner. However, it did not start out
as such. Peconic, by name, is relatively young in usage for the
hamlet’s designation, and probably came into favor during some
renaissance to the area’s native American forebearers.
Its location and identity came into being by reason of the
coming of the railroad in the early 1840s. Each railroad stop was
determined to be about one hour’s walking distance, or three
miles, from one stop to the next. The location was equidistant
from west of Southold and east of Cutchogue. It was in the
middle of nowhere, but for a small cottage near the new tracks
occupied by an eccentric bachelor – a hermit. Thus, the train
stop became known as the Hermitage. Because Hermitage never
grew into a village, meaning large enough to have a church spire,
it remained a hamlet – in native American, “Peconic”.

How Southold
Names Came to Be...
Winter Harbor, Sterling
(Greenport)
The creek lying just to the eastside of today’s village of Greenport was first known to boatmen as Winter Harbor. It rarely froze over in winter
times unlike most of the other creeks of the North Fork. Later the creek, and hence the village, came to be known as Sterling Creek, getting
its name from Long Island’s first land patentee in the early 1600s.
By the early 1800s, after nearly two centuries from the first arrival of the new settlers, mail came to the villages of the North Fork on
horseback from Brooklyn – once a week. The mail bag would be emptied onto a table at each post office where local letters were sorted out
and the rest returned to the post carrier’s bag. For every letter received, the addressee paid a shilling in postage.
Sterling’s post office was in a school house just west of today’s Moore’s Lane on the Kings Highway (today’s North Road). When the U.S.
Post Office Department asked the village to consider another name, as there were other “Sterlings” (but no zip codes), the name Green Hill
was first chosen. But at a public meeting called at the homestead of one of the villagers, a Captain John Clark, on June 23, 1831, the name of
Greenport was finally adopted. Captain Clark became the new postmaster and conducted postal sorting in the Clark House, a hotel near
the village center. As there was yet very little settlement on Long Island west of Riverhead and east of Brooklyn, the Clark House was one of
only twenty-four post offices on all of Long Island at that time.

How Southold
Names Came to Be...
Yennicott, Southwold
(Southold)
Within a dozen years after the Pilgrims’ landing at Plymouth Rock in 1620, Europeans,
mostly English, started venturing south from the New Haven Colony across Long
Island Sound to a place called Yennicott by native Americans. Throughout the 1630s,
adventurous men looked to Long Island’s northeastern peninsula for economic gain
through the search for pine pitch and turpentine, mostly in an area called Arshamomaque,
east of what is called Mill Creek today. The settlement of the North Fork was a gradual
infiltration, not a mass invasion of new settlers.
In 1640, a clergyman was sent out under a commission from the Governor of the New
Haven Colony and from the leader of the New Haven church to organize this area called
the Yennicott plantation, subject to New Haven’s jurisdiction. His name was John Youngs.
He was a clergyman and the son of a clergyman, the Rev. Mr. Christopher Youngs, vicar
of Southwold, England. The Rev. Mr. John Youngs was given a choice home site on the
west side of a lane running up from the head of what is called Town Creek today. The lane
became Youngs Avenue, the primary crossroad in the village of Southold. His homestead
he called Southwold after his family’s vicarage in England. Southwold soon found favor as
Southold, as the latter was preferred by the new settlers to Yennicott.

our wine country. Since the first vineyards were
planted in 1973, the Long Island wine region has continued
to grow, from 17 vineyards in 1996 to 35+ today. There are
in excess of 40 licensed wineries currently operating on Long
Island, producing 500,000 cases of premium wine from 20
classic vinifera grape varieties.
With just 3,000 acres under cultivation, the focus in
Long Island is on quality, not quantity. East End viticulturists
personally tend their vines throughout the long growing season
to yield grapes of the highest quality. Our local winemakers
are true artisans, carefully crafting wines that meet exacting
standards for structure and balance.
With this approach, it’s no surprise that Long Island wines
receive high praise from some of the wine industry’s best known
critics. In 2006 the region received very favorable reviews in The
Wine Spectator, The New York Times and, for the first time, in
a comprehensive report in Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. The
Wine Advocate review offered objective confirmation of what
many on the East End have long believed: that the region is
producing wines of a quality “deserving of respect and attention
worldwide.” Under the Wine Advocate’s 100-point rating
system, the region’s scores ranged from “Very Good” (85 – 89)
to “Outstanding” (90 – 95).
This growing media coverage is reinforced by the awards
won by Long Island wineries in many competitions held around
the country. Closer to home, the region’s wines consistently
stand out at the annual New York Wine and Food Classic
competition, capturing over 111 awards in 2008, including Best
Red, Best Chardonnay, Best Savignon Blanc, Best Semisweet
Reisling and Best Unifera Red Blend.

How Southold
Names Came to Be...
Mattituck (Mattituck)
Believed to mean “the great creek” from native America, Mattituck is at the head of the North Fork’s only harbor opening onto Long Island Sound
from Port Jefferson – some thirty miles to the west – to Orient – some twenty miles to the east. It is the one village or hamlet in the Town of Southold
which retains its native American name, “Great Creek”, which it is as it nearly divides the North Fork in half reaching to within five hundred yards
of head waters to the Peconic Bay to the south.
Like Cutchogue and Orient, Mattituck was needed for second generation expansion of the new settlers in 1662, more than two decades after the
first settlement at Southold. Today, Mattituck is the second largest village proper on the North Fork, behind Greenport, a half-day’s walk to the
east. While the greater part of the land finds its usefulness still in agriculture, like so much of the rest of the North Fork, the shorelines have been
populated with summertime and year-round housing as leisure time has expanded, especially since the end of WWII.

the midway rides. Taste foods from around
the world. The fun keeps going after the
sun sets, so bring lawn chairs and enjoy the
