A Summer Of Pridwin Cookouts From July 5

The Pridwin Beach Hotel & Cottages (Crescent Beach, 81 Shore Road Shelter Island, NY 11964 [631] 749-0476 or www.pridwin.com) kicks off a summer of all-you-can-eat outdoor cookouts with a view on Wednesday, July 9 followed by one every Wednesday to August 24. Family and friends of all generations may enjoy dining alfresco as they overlook one of the most beautiful water views from Shelter Island onto Southold Bay. The cost is $31 for adults and $19 per child under 12-years-old.

Two special Saturday night cookouts -- on July 5 and July 12, the latter timed to Shelter Island fireworks -- include a special menu at $40 for adults and $24 for children under 12-years-old. Reservations are required.

The legendary summer cookouts with a view have been held for the past 30 years. Enjoyed by visitors of all ages, the cookouts are followed by decidedly contemporary live music and dancing in the Pridwin lounge. Other modern touches to this un-Hamptons, rustic treasure can be found in recently re-vamped cottages and a grand reception area designed by Fred Bernstein and Kristin Moday. Boaters who wish to dine or lodge are welcome to anchor at The Pridwin's private dock.

The American-style cuisine is based on local, fresh ingredients with vegetables from nearby farms and, whenever possible, fish caught by The Pridwin's owner, Richard Petry and his son, Gregg, from the waters around Shelter Island and off Montauk.
