  Great River, New York - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Great River is a hamlet (and a census-designated place) in Suffolk County, New York, United States.
It was formerly known as Youngsport and was once a mansion-heavy enclave, home to many aristocratic New York families including the Vanderbilts.
The majority of the hamlet was rezoned for average size homes, yet today the estate of William Bayard Cutting was donated as an arboretum to the State of New York by his widow and daughter.
