The ferry service from Bay Shore lands you in the heart of the downtown Ocean Bay Park commercial district, The house is in uptown Ocean Bay Park which is very residential. Downtown Ocean Bay Park is just a short 5-minute walk from the property and features bay front dining at Schooners (adjacent to the ferry) and Flynn’s (at the other end of OBP) and the town's grocery store. The district has expanded in recent years and includes a pizza parlor, ice cream shop, nursery, and jewelry shop and a bicycle rental shop. It is close enough to visit whenever you want but far enough away to retain the solitude and quiet of the neighborhood.
Welcome to your perfect coastal getaway!
Welcome to our great escape!

we had a great time - weather was fantastic, grilled most nights, 3 minute walk to ocean... green, flower filled deck space with birds & butterflies... great spot to capture the Fire Island vibe... just chill.
Great! Loved the huge property- big porch space and outdoor seating. Close to the beach too!
This was our second year staying at this property and everything was amazing, same as last year. We will continue to try to stay at this property when we vacation on Fire Island.
We really enjoyed our stay. The home is very basic but comfortable and is right at the edge of lovely parts of the island. Grill and outdoor shower were great amenities. Thanks, Frank!
Myself and five friends spent the weekend at Frank and Mara’s and it was perfect! We enjoyed being so close to a beautiful beach and walking distance to many places to eat. The house was cozy and a great home base to explore the island. Frank came to get us from the ferry and gave us a number of helpful recommendations. We’d definitely return!
This was a perfect location. The garden is adorable. Sitting out there in the mornings bird watching and smelling the sweet flowers was so nice. Just a short walk to the beach too. We had the most wonderful time.
The house was exactly as advertised and just what we were looking for. It’s open and comfortable. We loved the different outdoor deck spaces, the beautiful gardens, and the outdoor shower! Quiet location with an old Fire Island feel. Easy back and forth to the beach. We would definitely come back!
Frank’s home is quite lovely- the pictures do not do it justice at all. We were a small group of women getting together to celebrate a milestone birthday. Everything about our stay was easy from booking to checkout, and Frank was so helpful in getting us situated- he made us feel welcome and right at home from the beginning. Location is great- steps to the beach, a short walk to OB and close enough to everything fun in OBP-but not TOO close for comfort! I would love to come back and stay again, anytime.
Everything you could need in the kitchen. Outdoor shower was the only shower working but actually quite enjoyed it!!! Frank met us at the ferry and gave us the grand tour. Even pulled a wagon full of our stuff on a very hot day!
We spent a week at the house. it was perfect for what we wanted. 1 block from beach, 1 block from bay . a small local town nearby and a 10 minute bike ride to the more busy congested part of the island. Our friends and family enjoyed cooking together in the open kitchen area that was well supplied. the multiple decks allowed us to really relax and enjoy the beautiful gardens.
Great location, easy to get to and access the beach and the town. Just wish we had realized that there was no air conditioning as we were stayed there in the middle of a heat wave.
This was our second stay at Frank and Mara's house — like last time we had a wonderful time. We love the spaciousness of the house, the garden and outdoor lounge areas, the outdoor shower, and the proximity to the beach. Frank and Mara are superb hosts. The house has bikes and is a short walk or bike-ride away from Seaview and Ocean Beach.
The house and deck we’re wonderful for our group of 5. Just a few steps from the beach in wonderful OBP. This house is everything you could need and more.
Only stayed for 2 nights, but it was perfect. House has a great breeze from windows, so no need for air conditioning. The bikes were great to have to ride to store or dinner. Really short easy walk to beach. Would loved to have stayed longer!
