Shinnecock Hills was a rail station, located along the Montauk Branch of the Long Island Rail Road, in Shinnecock Hills, Suffolk County, New York, United States.
The station's name was revived for the temporarily reactivated Southampton College station during the 2004 and 2018 U.S. Opens, which took place at the nearby Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. [2]
The station first opened around 1887 on the south side of the tracks, and closed in 1938. [1]
The building was used as a U.S. Post Office and as of 2013 was in use as a private residence. In October 2013, the structure was dedicated as a Southampton Town Historic Landmark by the Town of Southampton. [3]
