A new hotel in the Hamptons- RUSCHMEYER'S! Another reason to get out of New York City this summer.

New York City in the summer is sweltering.  The kind of heat that when a subway passes you on the platform, you delight in the rank smelling, steamy breeze.  An escape plan seems not just wise, but imperative to your well being.

The Hamptons are not exactly a novel idea for New Yorkers in the summer.  In fact, they can get jam packed and wind up feeling like the actual city has just transplanted itself to the glorious beaches and quaint towns that make up the Hamptons.  That's why we love the look and sound of Ruschmeyer's in Montauk.

Brought to you by the folks of Surf Lodge, also in Montauk, Ruschmeyer's goes for more of a "summer camp" for grown ups feel with a sandy beer garden, a host of activities from yoga to kite boarding, to live musical and theatrical performances, this grassy lakeside compound aims to please all types.  The onsite Magic Garden restaurant serves up fresh seafood with just the right amount of NYC panache and the bar next door, Electric Eel, is there to keep the party going....

Rooms fan out encircling the garden and have John Masters Organics products to clean up with.

Sounds like we need a visit to see for ourselves!  As for you New Yorkers, report back.  And don't do anything we wouldn't do.
