Oakdale
Gilded Age history, the Connetquot River preserve and river front living.

Overview
Oakdale carries real history. The Vanderbilt family's Idle Hour estate shaped the area, and the Connetquot River State Park Preserve sits on its northern side.
Homes range from mid century ranches to river front and bayfront properties along the Connetquot. Waterfront homes here often come with docks and deep questions about bulkheads.
