The beauty of Montauk goes beyond the landscape into the locally owned shops, restaurants, bars, and hotels. This summer if you could use a break from the daily routine then a stay at Culloden House in Montauk is the remedy. Culloden House is the perfect place to be reminded the best vacations revolve around family and friends.
Culloden House is a short walk from the famous Gosman’s, the beach, restaurants, and marinas, so activities are easy to find. If you prefer to relax at the hotel you can take advantage of the outdoor fun and games that are offered. Ping pong, croquet, corn hole, and can jam are some of the guest favorites. After a long day in the sun fishing or at the beach you may not want to walk to a restaurant so you can use the barbecues and tables to have dinner.

At dinner time take a walk over to the Inlet Cafe at Gosman’s for some oysters and sushi as you watch boats return to Lake Montauk as the sunsets.
