Sightseeing
This is our favorite village beach. Like all beaches in EH township/village, it requires either a town or village resident permit to park and the permits are non-transferrable (it is all digital by license plate now).
Anyone can go to the beach, you just can't park there. No sweat -- take an Uber OR rent bikes from Khahn's in town. The beach is a short and picturesque bike ride from the house.

Activities
Great tennis and pickleball club! There's also a great Vietnamese restaurant on prem (no membership required to dine there). You do however, need to be a member to play here, but guess what? Membership is free to anyone! Call ahead to confirm this info and to book a court. If Pickleball is your thing, we recommend the Friday evening social at 5pm. Definitely call ahead to book it.

This is way more than just a bowling alley and there's something for everyone: Restaurant, cocktails, music venue, comedy, mini-golf, arcade and yes...bowling. This is our go-to when entertaining family of all ages--especially when the weather isn't cooperating.

Food scene
In-town tasty Mexican dining in a casual atmosphere. This place is chill and lacks all the pretensions that come to mind when you hear "The Hamptons." Locals and visitors alike can be found here. Good happy hour.

Another great Mexican restaurant! This one's in the Springs and is known for their excellent selection of Mezcals and Tequilas. Happy hour is really good here. Hint: Dollar oysters. Also good any other time. Def one of our go-tos :)

Wanna see a killer sunset as the boats return to the marina and have some excellent, yet reasonably priced, seafood? Come here.
They do not take reservations. Best bet--get there at 5pm when they open and have a drink at the bar while you wait for your table.
