Perfect location for Montauk

Owner went out of his way to get this booked for us. Spent 3 nights here during a recent trip to Montauk SP and the Current River. Perfect location 5 minutes from the park. We stayed in the upstairs lodge. Very nice, clean, comfortable. Did not get to enjoy the outside areas due to thunderstorms/weather. great walk-in shower. Spacious bedroom(s). Nice patios and grill. Note: steps to upper lodge are steep and may be an issue for some folks. RV Park next door did not have much noise or commotion. Met the owner and his pup as we were packing up. We will be back for sure. Glad we found this place.
