Southampton is lovely, though I fear it's gotten a smidge crowded. Bellport doesn't have nearly the commercial oomph, like not even close. We are much more a small town, but we do have a lovely dock, bay area and a heavenly strip of beach across the bay on Fire Island. It's really a touch of small town paradise.KCFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00685155860282341767noreply@blogger.com
