Stayed Jun 5, 2026Wonderful historic property with lovely gardens and beautifully decorated. The host was very responsive and welcoming. We had a lovely weekend with our daughter, our sons, and their partners for my nephew’s wedding on Shelter Island. We belonged to the Walt Whitman Historical Society years ago, before we moved off Long Island so that family connection to this property felt special to us.

Stayed Apr 30, 2026My husband and I hosted our four adult children and son-in- law for a Greenport weekend and this adorable house could not be more perfect! There was plenty of space for all of us. The beds were very comfortable and the house was clean. We enjoyed cooking in the spacious kitchen and hanging out playing games. It was so nice to be so close to town - we walked minutes for shopping, cocktails and great meals. Rachel was a great host who responded to any and all questions and requests immediately. We would love to return to The Whitman House!

Stayed Apr 10, 2026Having been a North Fork (Greenport & Southold) resident for over 30 years, we always wanted to experience living in the Village of Greenport. When the need arose to come back to the East End with a party of eight, we found a large enough space in the perfect location. Our host Rachel, was always quick to reply to our inquiries. The home is a charming older home located within walking distance of Front and Main Street. There were 4 bedrooms, two baths, two living rooms, TV's galore and a full service kitchen and pantry. We were delighted with being able to all stay together. The garden and yard were waiting for warmer weather to burst. Enjoy!
