THE CHEQUIT, Shelter Island Heights

The Chequit offers a restored Victorian property featuring views over the Long Island Sound and nearby harbor. Accommodations include suites such as the Terrace Suite with a private roof terrace and claw-foot bath, while the six rooms in the Summer House provide more affordable options with simpler furnishings. A complimentary breakfast served in the lobby and on the terrace includes freshly baked muffins, pastries, fruits, cereals, and home-made muesli. The restaurant Red Maple serves small bites and traditional mains like Montauk fluke and root beer-glazed pork belly, with an expansive terrace for open-air dining. Evenings transform Red Maple into Mr Crook's Pub, hosting trivia nights and serving hearty food alongside a raw bar offering local oysters and clams. Six rooms can be converted into family rooms with the addition of a day bed for children. A fleet of reconditioned vintage bicycles is available for complimentary use to explore Shelter Island.
