Best way to do Montauk from RI is to ride the ferry from New London to orient point then the shelter Island ferry from orient to Shelter and Shelter to hampton. Its $88 round trip on the new london ferry and$10 each side on the shelter island ferry. so I guess thats $128 for the ferrys. When i went in the late 80's and early 90's , you could not sleep in your car. You would have a staty on your case in an hour. Only option besides the hotels was for self contained vehicles right in the parking lot at the Point or regular camping at heather hills (which may be closed very late in the season) or rent a house , etc.

i used to eat and drink at the Shagwong Cafe. that's a real cool place worth seeing , especially late night. They also have a huge Marlin on the wall which was locally caught.

I fished there every thanksgiving weekend for years. the fishing is great then and even into December. I fished form Turtle cove to Shagwong point. Got good fish there even when a keeper had to be 36 inches. Rigged eels never worked better than at Montauk in late november.

Anyway , its a great place for late fall fishing but not easy to get to and IMO , on the expensive side.
