This is our second time renting this home and it just gets better every year! The new upgrades to the house made our stay so much more relaxing. The house was spotless, clean and so inviting! The outdoor furniture was so relaxing to lounge in the sun on! The owners could not have been more accommodating and were a pleasure to communicate with. We will absolutely be booking this house again next year!
comfortable, well equipped, good location, gracious host
Nice house in Ocean Beach, four bedrooms, large family room, dining room. Excellent full-service kitchen, also with a dining area. One indoor shower and one outdoor shower. Clean, well equipped, spacious, large rooms. The close proximity to town, being maybe a hundred yards from restaurants and markets, was extremely convenient. The house has many air conditioners when the weather turns hot and muggy. We've been coming to Ocean Beach for forty years and this was one of the best houses we've stayed at.
We had a great week in Ocean Beach! The kitchen and refrigerator were very clean, as well as the sinks and toilets. House was in a great location, so close to town and a quick walk to the beach. Lots of room for everyone. Owners were wonderful, responding to any issues right away. That being said, house did need some maintenance. But it is a beach house and had just about everything we needed. A great summer break!
We had a great week! The house was exactly as listed. Location was perfect, plenty of room in the house, nice big kitchen. The owner could not have been any more responsive, an absolute pleasure! We had beautiful weather and a perfect family vacation!
Classic, well equipped Fire Island house in an excellent location to access beach and town. Perfect for a family reunion. Responsive owner.
The house is in an excellent location - very close to the town and ferry and a short walk to the beach. The house is also very spacious and is charming. The owner is extremely responsive. The kitchen is very well equipped (there does seem to be an extraordinary amount of spoons for some reason). However, even with the understanding that this is a beach house and beach houses are by definition prone to get worn and sandy (I live a block from the beach myself), this house could use some tender loving care (it is certainly not immaculate as the title of the listing says). The listing says there are two full bathrooms - one with a shower and one with a tub and a shower. This is not true. There is only one bathroom with a shower - it is downstairs and the door to that bathroom has no doorknob - there is just a hole where the doorknob used to be (it has a lock you can use though). Just a note - the lack of doorknobs in this bathroom was also previously mentioned in an August 2019 review. The other bathroom, which is upstairs, just has a tub (there is a shower curtain but no shower attachment at least while we were there). The sink in the upstairs bathroom did not drain (we had to use a plunger and when we plunged it, the water came up in the tub). The owner did try to have it fixed while we were there but it didn't work out (we definitely realize that the handymen on the island seemed to be extremely busy given that it was the start of the season - the plumber did show up on the morning we were checking out despite the owner having called him days before). The doorknob for one of the master bathrooms kept falling off (the only reason I raise this was that it was also mentioned in an August 2019 review). There was only one bike in usable shape. Bring flipflops to wear in the outdoor shower (which was very spacious) as the deck is worn and splintering in places. Like I said, the owner was very responsive and tried to get the items we raised fixed. The caretaker of the house came by a few times to try to help us as well and was very kind and helpful. We were only there a week so we realize it is not always possible to address things that quickly in a rental house. I am only writing this review to put other renters on notice as to what to expect, especially since we experienced some of the same issues that were raised in a previous review from almost 2 years ago.
We enjoyed our stay at this beachouse Would recommend for any family
Home was exactly as advertised. Located in a great spot at Ocean Beach. Would recommend to family and friends and would rent this home again!
We were so pleased with how centrally situated we were; the house was only about 3 minutes away from the ferry, shops and restaurants, and 5 minutes from the beach. After spending a day on the glorious beach, we would come back for a quick snack, relax on the deck, and then walk back to the beach to watch the sun set- Pure Heaven! Dawn was a gracious and attentive host. She was flexible about time conflicts and answered phone/emails promptly, checked in to make sure all was fine. It’s clear that she was willing to go the extra mile to make sure her guests were happy.
