Setauket was founded in 1655 as the first European settlement in what became the Town of Brookhaven, and the village green still sits at the center of that history. The Setauket Presbyterian Church, Caroline Church and the saltbox Thompson House all date back centuries, and the Old Setauket Historic District keeps the area's character intact. On streets like these, holiday lighting should look like it belongs. We design displays that follow a home's lines instead of covering them, whether that means a clean row of C9 LEDs on the front gutters and peaks or warm lighting on a wreath, garland and front walkway.
Beyond the historic core, Setauket mixes older pre-war homes with neighborhoods built after World War II on former farmland, and plenty of properties have mature trees and deep lawns. Our Premium package suits those lots, with tree wrapping on trunks and branches, hedge netting, walkway borders and a full design consultation. Homes closer to Setauket Harbor and Conscience Bay get more wind off the water, so we fasten every run with commercial-grade clips and check it through the season. After the holidays, we take the display down and store it for you.

Around Setauket: Historic Places We Love to Light Up Near
Few Long Island communities hold as much history as Setauket. The village green saw a Revolutionary War skirmish in 1777, members of the Culper Spy Ring lived here, and colonial churches and homes still stand along its roads. Add Frank Melville Memorial Park, the harbor and neighboring Stony Brook University, and you have a hamlet where warm, well-placed holiday lights fit right in each December.
Caroline ChurchBuilt in 1729, this Episcopal church with its tall spire faces the Setauket village green and is one of the oldest church buildings on Long Island.
Thompson HouseThis 1709 saltbox with its steep roof and central chimney is a well-preserved example of early Long Island colonial building.
Frank Melville Memorial ParkDedicated in 1937, this 24-acre park near the harbor has a walking trail, a historic mill house and the Three Village Garden Club Arboretum.
Stony Brook UniversityThe university's large campus sits right next door and makes the Three Village area a busy, lively place all winter.

Setauket Holiday Lighting FAQs
Can you light a historic home in Setauket without damaging it?
Yes. We plan each design around your home's architecture and use commercial-grade clips for the runs rather than improvised fasteners. For older homes, we will talk through where the lights should go during the design so the display complements the house. If you have specific concerns about your home, call us at 631-515-7882.
Do you offer designs that suit a traditional look near the village green?
We do. Custom holiday light design is part of every job. Some Setauket homeowners want warm white C9s on the roofline and a wreath and garland at the door, while others prefer color patterns. Our Premium package includes a full design consultation, wreaths, garlands and bows, and lit walkway borders.
My property has large, mature trees. Can you wrap them?
Yes. Tree wrapping on trunks and branches is part of our Premium package, along with lights on bushes and hedges using nets or string lights. It is a good fit for Setauket's wooded lots. The Premium package also covers the full roofline, driveway and walkway borders and specialty décor like icicles and snowflakes.
I live near Setauket Harbor. Will the wind be a problem?
Waterfront homes near the harbor and Conscience Bay can see stronger winter wind, so we secure every run with commercial-grade clips. Maintenance is included for the whole season. If a strand moves or a bulb burns out, call our Suffolk line and we will send someone to take care of it.
How quickly can you install lights at my Setauket home?
We typically install within 48 hours of booking, so you will not wait long to see your home lit. Late November and early December are our busiest weeks, though, so booking early gives you the best choice of dates. Call 631-515-7882 Monday through Friday 9am to 5pm or weekends 10am to 6pm.
