Om værten
Vært: RACHEL A OCONNOR
We are an international family who love to travel. We have been in Greenport for more than 25 years. We are deeply in love with the North Fork and all she has to offer, the beaches, the farms, the ponds, the Osprey! Swimming, cycling, cooking and gardening are a huge part of our lives. The house so open and warm, we have hosted so many families and friends, we are now happy to share it with the world! Sounds idyllic? It is. Come try it out!
Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted
We discovered the North Fork 25 years ago after staying on Shelter Island. Greenport has so much to offer, with nothing to do and plenty to do.
A vibrant arts community, historic cinema and wonderful library can keep you busy year round. It is as charming in the winter as summer. Autumn is especially great out here with all the farm stands in full glory.
We raised our family here, it is a magical place for children.Easy flat hikes, safe cycling and swimming, lots of fun activities in the Village, many of them free. Fishing, kayaking, all fun and safe on both the Sound and Bay beaches.
The best secret is its proximity to the city, less than a hundred miles, via car, bus, train and airport connections, you can be transported easily to a new world.
Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt
The house is just magical, at least we think it is.
It has lots of light and great vibes. It is surprisingly large and goes all the way back, opening out to a bright kitchen and garden.
Although very old, it feels bright modern and very airy. She holds up well in the winter and is super cosy.
The sitting room is a rare white wedding cake of a room with pressed tin walls and ceilings.
Old wooden floor boards are so wide and the steep stair case really gives you a sense of time.
There are many original fixtures and fitting that are so sweet, tiny door knobs and old square nails made by a local blacksmith in the late 1800's. Trap doors that go nowhere, hide-y holes upstairs, fun for an adventurous child.
The landing upstairs has a lovely reading bench and library for a chill out zone.
We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
