OP I live 5min from Smithtown. The best car wash in the area is Touch of Class in St James which neighbors smithtown but lmk what days you will be here and I'll see if my detailer has an opening. $60 for an amazing car wash. Much better than any car wash can give you and it's about 10-15min from Smithtown. If you message me we will get together and hit up some meets. There is one every Wednesday like 30min away that has some badass cars and every Sunday there is one at 7-8am and it has like 1200hp cars and races all day on the bridge and stuff like that. PM me.

Save a lot of hassle and take the ferry. Totally worth it. 95 sucks. Travel early in the morning or late at night= less cars on the boat, less chance of door dings etc. Cross Sound ferry has a website and an app. New London to Orient Point. You'll be glad you did it.

Vineyards out here are dope. They should all be open that weekend. The clearance depends on the tide...so, it could be difficult.

Ferry is the way to go for sure, bought my M in CT and took her over no problems. As for car washes, I second Touch of Class since you’ll be in Smithtown anyway. If you’re set on brushless, go to Bohemia Hand Wash (they usually have Groupons). As for vineyards, there are two relatively nearby Whisper and Harmony that are decent, but the good ones (in my opinion) are further east. Depending on your choice of wine, you’ll have more than a handful that suit your taste. If you do end up going out east, be sure to pickup a pie from Briermere Farms on your way back. So much to see on the island, enjoy!
