A waterfront town with high-end real estate and picturesque views

Local Lifestyle

Many residents coming to Water Mill are trading in city life for wide open spaces. The community encompasses Mecox Bay which calms the water from the Atlantic Ocean, encouraging locals to try water activities or just relax on the beach. With many homeowners spending only a part of their year in Water Mill, the town comes alive in the summer. Those who live in Water Mill year-round still find seasonal events through the winter to enjoy, and with the neighborhood's price point, home is the best place to be holed up for a few cold months.
 

Dining, Entertainment & Shopping

Bistro Ete serves French cuisine with a Mediterranean influence in their simple yet elegant dining room that transports you to the Parisian coast. Whether you want the exotic escargot and caviar or the simple steak and french fries, this spot will be a fan favorite for both its ambiance and attention to flavor. Taking a culinary trip to Greece, Calissa Hamptons also serves a Mediterranean menu but with a Greek influence. The restaurant is valued for its outdoor space and its extensive list of wines and specialty cocktails. Their freshly caught menu has succulent seafood and options for those who prefer red meat or no meat at all.
 

Things to Do

For some cultural enrichment, Parrish Art Museum has rotating exhibitions so that no two visits are ever the same. The museum also offers art classes and regularly hosts live events ranging from musical to theatrical performances. Founded over 100 years ago, having this artistic haven so close to home will enrich the lives around you. 
 
Another significant experience in the area would be attending the Hampton Classic Horse Show in August. This equestrian event has become an important bookend to another glorious summer in The Hamptons.
 
Depending on the season, you can pick fruit by the pound at Seven Ponds Orchard, where they have an assortment of crops, including apples and blueberries. This is a great way to support a local farm, eat organic, and get outside all at once. Whether you go berry picking alone or with friends, you can stock up the fridge while getting in your steps. 

Hank's Pumpkintown opens up to Water Mill residents each fall, offering pumpkin patches, corn mazes, and apple picking. You and your whole family can have fun at this seasonal event, with locals returning each year.
