Thomas Jefferson, along with James Madison, visited the area near present-day Mastic Beach, New York in 1791. Here's a brief summary of their visit: Purpose: Jefferson and Madison, then serving under President George Washington (Jefferson as Secretary of State), were on Long Island to investigate a destructive Hessian fly infestation impacting the grain industry. Jefferson was also pursuing his interest in documenting Native American languages, specifically the Algonquian language spoken by the Unkechaug tribe. Accommodations: They stayed at Terry's Hotel, also known as the Moriches Inn. Meeting with General William Floyd: They visited General William Floyd, a prominent Long Islander and signer of the Declaration of Independence, at his estate in nearby Mastic. Encountering the Unkechaug: Jefferson met with members of the Unkechaug tribe, finding a few older women who could still speak their language. He documented their vocabulary, creating one of only two known collections of their Algonquian language. This work reflected his broad interest in the origins of Native American languages and their potential connection to the age of the American continent. In essence, Jefferson's visit to the area, then part of the larger Mastic area and near present-day Mastic Beach, combined practical concerns about agriculture with his intellectual and scientific curiosity about the region's indigenous people and their culture.

The house is currently under renovations so no tour but you can explore the property and hike the trails. Do yourself a favor bring mosquito repellent. I met Ranger Jennifer, she was so helpful with the history of the family and other information. Suggestion to the Federal Parks Department, use the property better. Have events like Yoga on the Lawn or Wine and Cheese picnics. Make it more inviting to the public.

Place is great beautiful. Packed with history exactly like the day they left it . Unfortunately that's how it remained. I went there today and they are fixing the main house wich was great but the trails were not maintained full of fallen branches and overgrown tall grass knee high. The main issue is the TICKS!. There are so many ticks in these trails that it's not even worth taking them. By the time you get back to your car you will find multiple ticks on your person guaranteed. As a former victim of tick attacks I sujest you skip these trails for now until major changes are made in reference to the...

Sad what's become of this place under this management. Closed for tours year after year for rennovations that ARE NOT happening. No more school trips to learn about local history because they're content with the place rotting Trees too close to the house are destroying the roof and not a single thing is being done to save this historical landmark. I'm disgusted with the way things have been going and every gripe I have falls on deaf ears and excuses. Fire Island National should be charged for allowing this. Give the place back to the town of brokkhaven. At least those crooks utilized it for...

The William Floyd Estate was a perfect afternoon experience my wife, newborn and myself. The National Park Ranger Guide was wonderful. I honestly am blanking on her name mainly because everything she had to say was about the Floyd Estate and family. She had been there since 79' and had so many interesting stories about the house and the estate. Great time spent on some beautiful land. Fantastic and surreal view of the ocean from the house too.

NOTE: When just clicking "Directions" on your phone it will take you to the wrong place. Make sure you click on the actual...
