North Fork Escape Steps From The Beach

My little girls and I had such a dream of a summer vacation here! The house is so sweet and special and we were able to walk to the beach every day. Made so many memories to treasure, can’t wait to return!

We loved staying at the Cleary home. It’s perfect for a family. The house is very well maintained, clean, charming, and has everything you need for a wonderful stay. The kitchen is well appointed, stocked with all the equipment and modern fixtures you need. The living area is wide and comfortable, and the bedrooms were just right for my wife & I and our two young kids. The outside space is a highlight - a great deck for dining and lounging with beautiful lighting, plus expansive grassy space for the kids to run around for hours. It also has the added bonus of being a very short walk to a lovely private beach. It’s an especially good beach for young kids, with calm waters and a seemingly endless shallow area. Short drive to Love Lane and pretty much central to all parts of the North Fork. Highly recommend! Tim & Sophie deserve particular credit. Some of the most welcoming and accommodative hosts we’ve ever dealt with. They went out of their way to make our stay great. Took extra time to offer all sorts of recommendations - and very good recommendations - for activities, dining, beaches, etc. Not just your “standard” recs, but specific to what we were looking for. Very flexible with check-in/check-out rules, made everything available to us, always response. They’re great. We definitely hope to return some day!

This was our second time at this house, and we love it. The house is clean and modern, there is ample space for kids to play in the yard, and the deck is great. The house is only a very short walk away from the lovely beach. We had a great time.

The place was perfect for our family, which includes my husband and my two young children ( 3 and 1). Sophie and Tim were absolutely wonderful and extremely accommodating! Additionally, our little one fell and made a little whole on the wall and they were so understanding - just wonderful people. I would absolutely rent this property again in the future, if they will have us.

We had a wonderful time at Tim & Sophie's house. We are a small family with one 5 year old boy. We found the house incredibly well appointed and had everything we needed or could want; from kitchen essentials to beach toys and bath toys and games for kids and adults. The house is a few doors down from a nice, calm, bay beach which was family friendly and perfect for us. They had a patio grill and outdoor table and we found ourselves eating outside almost every night. Mattituck is a nice little town and we enjoyed taking out from local restaurants, going berry picking at a local farm, and indulging in fantastic ice cream at the Magic Fountain which was right up the block. Tim & Sophie were very responsive and provided a wealth of information on the house and local area esp noting things that were open v closed due to Covid-19. The worst part of our stay was having to leave and I hope we can go back again. Highly recommend!

Wonderful clean property- met all of our needs. Great family owned house!

We had a beautiful 12 day stay at this wonderful beach house! My husband and three year old daughter and I loved the proximity of the beach and the vineyards. The home itself is inviting and perfect. The unique touches and decoration by Sophie and Tim make this a true beach house feel. We loved it and would love to visit again! Thank you!

The house is clean, comfortable, and modern. The deck has ample space for lounging and a grill, and the large yard is great for kids. The house is only steps from the beach and a lovely playground. We had a wonderful time in this house in Mattituck.

We just got back from Sophie & Tim’s home and it was perfect! The house was even more beautiful in person than the pictures. It was steps away from the beach. I grew up spending my summers in Mattituck only 2 blocks away from this house. It felt like being home again. My husband and I loved being able to relax and enjoy the beach and our kids loved being out in the country. Our children had no interest in playing their video games-no small feat with 7 & 10 year olds-they just wanted to swim and play in the yard. We can’t wait to book another stay! Thank you!!!!

I recently moved to the North Fork and my brother and his family planned to fly in from Arizona for a visit. Since my home is too small to accommodate the whole family, I searched VRBO to locate a rental house for them nearby. Sophie and Tim’s Mattituck home was a terrific find! The charming beach house was clean, comfortable and fully stocked with everything needed to make their stay relaxed and enjoyable. The grandkids loved playing on Peconic Bay beach just a short walk from the house. The adults loved the outdoor deck for lounging and grilling. They appreciated that the Mattituck Market shopping plaza was only a short distance away. And there were many visits to nearby Magic Fountain for homemade ice cream! Everyone had a wonderful time experiencing the beautiful North Fork and all that it has to offer. Thank you, Sophie and Tim, for helping to create some wonderful family memories.
