Columbus Day Weekend

Scott and I still haven't found a place to go a way that weekend. We found some places, but I can't see spending a lot of money fopr 2 or 3 nights. Any suggestions?

Because I am not in the mood to drive there on a holiday weekend, and I know a lot of cool things happen on the east end...I want to go check out the vineyards, and on Sunday of that weekend there is a big fair in riverhead on main street.

Re: Columbus Day Weekend

Oh ok Scott, I was just wondering.

What kind of fair in Riverhead? The vineyards are nice. What about a B&B? Sorry I don't know of any because my in-laws have a summer place that we always stay at. Too bad my DH is working that weekend.
