Shelter Island Historical Society: President Wilson, 1917 & Theodore Roosevelt, 1915 — at Menantic Grove House

We recently discovered that two Presidents of the United States

stayed at the Menantic Grove House on Shelter Island!

Hotel Staff recorded that on August 16, 1915, Theodore Roosevelt & family

from “Oyster Bay, LI” checked in.

Two years later, on June 16, President Woodrow Wilson from “Washington” visited.
