Things to Do
Rockefeller Center
The Rockefeller Center Christmas tree is usually taken down in mid-January, so there's a good chance if you go into the city you can see it up close!
If you don't want to drive into the city, the hotels are 5 minutes from Stony Brook Train Station which brings you right into Penn Station.
Avalon Nature Preserve
Amazing and beautiful place to experience. Beautiful trails to walk. From waterfalls to meadows to woods areas. Very serene and a wonderful way to experience nature
The Long Island Museum
The Long Island Museum of American Art, History and Carriages is well worth taking the time to do this if you are in the area. The art gallery is wonderful but the carriage section is the best. It has to be the biggest collection of carriages anywhere in the world and transports you to a bygone era - it is most charming!
The Reboli Center for Art and History
The Jazz Loft is a real gem, with a wide variety of music. Founded by Long Islander Tom Manuel, you can see everything from top flight guitarists to big band music, all in a very pleasant cabaret setting in Stony Brook's lovely old refurbished stone firehouse. Light food and drinks are available and the setting is intimate with great acoustics.
