You really can’t appreciate the pictures until you actually look out the windows or walk around on the decks on two decks for yourself, and enjoy the wide beautiful views of coastal wetlands and the long barrier beach beyond; a slightly different view from just about every room in the house. The wildlife is abundant; we saw buffleheads, greater scaups, tufted ducks, Red-breasted Mergansers, and on our last day there was great blue heron sitting on top of the evergreen tree next to the deck.
The bedrooms are bright with comfortable beds and the master bedroom has a jacuzzi. There is a full well supplied kitchen that we used everyday, including an electric kettle which you typically see in European homes.
It’s in a great location near many full- and half-day attractions. During our week-long stay, we drove over the long and magnificent Robert Moses Causeway to Fire Island and hiked out to the lovely Fire Island Light House and walked the extraordinary beaches. On other days, we drove to the Montauk Light House , took the South Ferry to Shelter Island and then the North Ferry to Greenport. And on rainy days, we put together puzzles and admired the lovely views. This is truly a relaxing destination.
