The Summer Cottage was built in 1939 to provide extra space for guests. Ruth Field, Marshall’s third and last wife, moved to the Summer Cottage in 1961 after selling the bulk of the estate to the Long Island State Parks and Recreation Commission. She moved out of Caumsett for good in 1966. The Summer Cottage was later used by Nassau BOCES as an environmental and outdoor education facility.

After being leased by Nassau BOCES, the interior underwent a renovation as a designer showcase property in 2020 to benefit the Caumsett Foundation.

Comments

  • Caumsett, the estate, is improperly drawn. It was much larger. Caumsett main house is about a mile NW, overlooking the pond.
  • This is the Caumsett Summer Cottage. The Dosoris Kid, Main Building is where you stated but it is not the only building.
