There's more than Love Lane's fine cheese and country French decor shops to woo you. Flanked by Laurel and Cutchogue, Mattituck is a water lover's paradise. Mattituck Inlet, which leads to the Long Island Sound, is the only harbor between Port Jefferson and Orient Point. As you go inland, Mattituck is awash with creeks and ponds that await exploration. Mattituck's three vineyards have gained fame over the years. But it's strawberry season and Mattituck's annual Strawberry Festival that ushers in the summer here.

Convenience and country life converge here, too. You can get here faster if you fly your airplane in to Mattituck Airport. And on rainy days the multiplex movie theater, the only one on the North Fork, is sure to have something you want to see.
