Classic shelter island house on the water. Close to everything and super quiet location.
As we drove down the block we realized there would be no photo to give you the feeling you would have going into the long driveway. The house sits on a beautiful large piece of property. The location is very peaceful. The view from the backyard was fantastic. The ? sunrises were beautiful. The house has a deck in the back perfect to have a nice dinner. One of my favorite area was the porch with windows and screens. A great place to work or sit and relax. The master bed and bath were perfect size and very accommodating. The other bedrooms were equally as nice. Everyone in my family felt it was one of the nicest homes we have rented. It was also the first time staying on Shelter Island and we love it. Our host was very timely helping us with any questions we had. The photos listed, but no photo could capture the beautiful, peaceful home and property
Incredibly beautiful location on harbor with breathtaking sunrise - close to everything , well equipped, 2 comfortable masters and 2 smaller bedrooms - very homey
This rental is outstanding; highly recommended! We loved every minute of our stay, and would certainly rent it again if available.
Lovely property and view. Hard to access water from dock as steps are not well maintained but the views are beautiful. The kitchen is very well equipped except guests should bring a knife sharpener ! All rooms are very well decorated and comfortable. Takes a genius to figure out audiovisual system and even the very accommodating host had difficulty trying to explain it. But we seldom wanted to watch VCR or TV and we loved our stay!
We enjoyed paddleboarding off the dock, particularly. We had to cut our visit a little short because of the storm. Plenty of nooks for people to work remotely. Edward was very responsive to any little request! Send beach towels overnight, et cetera.
On the day we were set to depart, my grandson grabbed his fishing rod, walked down to the water, and caught himself a striped bass from the dock (no bait needed). It was a fitting end to a wonderful month-long stay on Shelter Island. Life couldn’t have been easier on North Cartwright. Each day, several times, we walked out the door and onto the dock to wash some lures or take a dip, relaxed in the living room overlooking Coecles Harbor, had a chat while completing a Puzzle of the North Ferry in 1815 on the lovely screened in porch, or took a lounge on the spacious deck. If baking is your thing, as it is mine, the kitchen is well stocked; cooking on the new grill (bought while we were there, as a matter of fact) was a breeze too. And through it all, Edward couldn’t have been more helpful. If we needed anything, he was happy to oblige. As for Shelter Island itself, this was our first time staying, and it exceeded our expectations, both for its spacious beauty and its calm pace of life. All in all, my family heartily recommends.
We stayed at Edward and Tracy’s oasis in Shelter island for a month. Words cannot express the magic of this house and property. We created lifelong memories, taking advantage of the amazing view, lawn and dock. We came during C-19 to shelter in place and escape NYC and there couldn’t have been a more perfect place with ample workstations, super fast wifi, a kitchen with all the gadgets for your at-home chef dreams and tranquility in the beautifully made up bedrooms that felt like you were in a boutique hotel! Edward and Tracy really made us feel safe, making sure we had ample supplies and ensuring the house was fully sanitized before we stayed. There is so much to do at the property that you don't ever need to leave including swimming off the dock, lovely picnics on the lawn at sun set, grilling on the patio, taking a bath that overlooks the water and meditating on the dock. This was perfect for us to shelter in place in shelter island :) Although we never really needed to leave we do highly recommend the lobster and oysters from Commander Cody after going for hikes in the nature preserve a mile away…! We couldn’t recommend their home more, we feel very grateful for Edward and Tracy opening up their house and they were an absolute pleasure in all of our communications and all. We cannot wait to go back. Thank you Edward and Tracy!
Rented this house for the month of June, 2018. Loved every second of it and hated to leave. The house is at the end of a quiet drive and looks out onto Coecles Harbor. The view is stunning. Everything about the house- the layout, the furniture, the linens, the view of the harbor- everything exudes beauty, comfort and calm. As if the house itself isn’t perfect enough, the owners Edward and Tracey are the nicest people you will ever speak to or meet. They are easy to work with, are very reasonable and accommodating, and responsive. I do not have the slightest negative comment to make about the house, the owners or my trip. If I could go back tomorrow I would.
This home was a perfect spot for our 3 generations to spend time relaxing on and exploring Shelter Island. The master bedroom on the first floor and 3 additional private bedrooms on the second floor suited us well. The enormous yards both front and back made us feel we were the only ones on the Island. There was no one else in sight. We enjoyed cocktails and apps on the deck with the views of the water and under fabulous tall trees. The dock was a great place from which to swim and feel the warm sun. Without moving the car you can bike anywhere on the island or take long walks into the Center or out onto Ram Island. We also took a lovely walk through Mashomack Preserve which offers 12 miles of inland and coastal trails. An afternoon on Silver Beach provided some sand. The cozy living room was just the place to watch the storms across the water when we had a rainy day.
