Historic Canoe Place

In the town of Southampton, in the waterfront hamlet of Hampton Bays, two picturesque bays meet where friends, families, and cultures have come together since 1697. The site of the nation’s oldest inn, this special place has been everything from a waterside retreat to a discreet celebrity rendezvous to a racy late-night scene. That history of gathering and memory-making continues to this day.



Once the first stop of beach-bound socialites and visiting dignitaries making their way east, Canoe Place has been reimagined—and meticulously renovated—for a new generation of well-traveled guests.



Centuries old yet refreshingly new, Canoe Place has re-opened after years of careful restoration and thoughtful, luxurious enhancements. The return of the beloved inn and the opening of its beautifully landscaped grounds and classic pool mark a new chapter in the long history of this special place.



For this very special renovation, the owners specified our Montecito umbrellas with a solid oak frame, Summer Sky fabric, and a scalloped valance.
