Overall: 5/5 LongHouse Illuminated Event: 1/5…read more (Photos below are only from the illumination event) Absolutely love the LongHouse! As a local I have visited this 16 acre garden almost every year. I have great memories of school field trips, participating in the student art competitions, taking my high school senior banquet photos here and more. There are countless contemporary sculptures including permanent items and items on loan. Almost every time you come back there is something new and wonderful to look at! (The Red Garden is my favorite). It's also fun to look for frogs and turtles in the pond! You'll have a great time just strolling through the garden (especially during the summer) or when attending an after hours event. Just plan accordingly, come soon to get parking otherwise you'll have to park on the street. Overall I usually have a fantastic experience. If you're visiting The Hamptons, definitely check out The LongHouse Reserve! Despite my love for the LongHouse, I do have the rate the LongHouse Illuminated experience a 1/5. I would not recommend this event. It's a pretty hefty price for not much to look at ($35 for Non-Members, $20.00 for members, $15.00 for students and FREE for Children under 12 years old). When you first walk in the Docents will check you in since you have to register online. They were incredibly kind and helpful. After that the shop and restrooms are to your left. (I bought a cute beanie!) From there I started walking on the path and wrote my wish on the Wish Tree. The paths were poorly lit and only a few sculptures were illuminated. There was a small hut with a tacky snowflake projection on it. I mildly regret paying $35 per person to attend an illumination event when only thing really illuminated was the path. However, the Fly's Eye Dome and the House were incredible! We weren't able to stray off the path so it was a quick 20 minute walk through the entire thing. I was considering walking through it again but I told myself there's nothing to look at, it'll be better to walk through town and look at the lights. They had snacks and complementary hot chocolate, wine, or cold cider at the pavilion (and the cups were only filled, literally, 1/3 of the way up). Can I get my time (and money) back lol
