We enjoyed a relaxing comfortable stay at Sean’s cottage. The kitchen was well equipped with good quality cookware. The house was spacious enough providing privacy for everyone. The neighborhood was perfect for walking and beach was accessible. Sean was a responsive and accessible host. We would stay there again.

Great Location, Lovely House, Excellent

We had a wonderful stay at this property in Montauk. The house was light, airy, and perfectly located—just a short walk to the beach and a quick drive into town. It was also ideally situated for the wedding we were attending nearby. Communication with the host was excellent throughout, and everything was just as described. We really enjoyed both the home and the beautiful location. Highly recommend!

Hidden Treasure

We had a fantastic mini vacation celebrating our sons wedding in Montauk, we were very pleased with the location and layout of this house, tucked away in a nice quiet neighborhood, yet close to town and the beach. The upstairs living room/kitchen and deck was the best with views of the ocean and plenty of sun to sit back and relax. Will definately rent this again for our next family vacation in Montauk.

Annual Montauk Reunion

We’ve been coming to Montauk to fish together for the last 34 years and have camped as well as rented homes for our stay. This property offered all the space, deck, and proximity to the beach that we wanted. The kitchen and den area are spacious and comfortable. The four bedrooms were comfortable and the washer and drier were very convenient. We would gladly return to this house next year.

House was just as we expected. Checkin was a breeze and communication was excellent throughout the entire process. Ocean views from the dining table were a bonus. The kids loved our stay and John was accommodating to our family pet. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. We will definitely be looking to stay again here in the future. My kids can’t wait to go back. Thank you for a the great memories

Great location, nice living space

This house accommodated our family and guests comfortably and was a short walk to a gorgeous, quiet beach. Plenty of parking. Very nice, quiet, tree-filled neighborhood. The house had all we needed in terms of kitchen equipment, bedding, towels etc, plus a great deck and gas grill with a big outdoor dining table. Outdoor shower was handy for rinsing off after the beach. A nice stock of inflatable beds came in handy the night we had a lot of guests. It was ready on time and easy to settle in to.

Best month ever!

Sean’s house was incredible for our group and the perfect location in montauk. We stayed for the month and the house is exactly as described and pictured. The kitchen is newly renovated and well equipped to cook, grill, etc. The floor plan is great for a group with a huge deck for bbq nights and kt enjoyed the ocean view. Sean was very responsive as well as his handyman who was able to fix anything on short notice or take the trash. Could not say better things about our stay, we will definitely be back! Best month ever!

Just Perfect

The house was just perfect. It was close enough to town to get there easily but far enough away to have quiet and greenery. It was a 10 minute stroll to the beach. Sitting on the wooden deck, we listened to the sounds of the Atlantic Ocean while enjoying the gentle breeze. The pictures of the house were very accurate. The house was clean and stocked with everything we needed: towels, soap, shampoo, kitchen utensils and even a coffee machine and a teapot. The owner was prompt in answering questions and suggesting restaurants. He gave great directions and information about the house and was very easy to work with. All in all, it was a delightful vacation!

A Perfect Montauk Getaway!

Our recent stay in Montauk was absolutely delightful, and this home played a huge part in making it so memorable. The location was fantastic – truly walking distance to the beach, which made for incredibly easy and spontaneous trips to the sand and surf.One of the standout features of the house was the generous outdoor living space. The huge porches, both upstairs and downstairs, offered ample room to relax, enjoy the fresh air, and unwind after a day of exploring. Inside, the home was equipped with all the amenities you could possibly need to feel right at home. From the clean and well-maintained 2.5 bathrooms to the convenient washer and dryer, everything was thoughtfully provided. We especially appreciated the beach towels, chairs, and even a beach cart – these little touches made our beach outings incredibly convenient and enjoyable.The host was truly great, contributing to a seamless and very pleasant experience. While Montauk generally offers easy access to everything, the short drive to various attractions from this location was certainly a plus.Overall, it was such a lovely stay, and we highly recommend this wonderful home for anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and truly relaxing Montauk experience!

Great location - That's about it

While this was the best priced house for the size in the area it was clear why. We understood it was going to be more of a beach cottage than anything fancy but we expected it to at least be clean. We had to clean countertops and wash the sheets upon our arrival. Floors and bathrooms were not clean either. Cleanliness is something that is easily managed. Maybe a new cleaning service is needed? The house isn't very well maintained either (rotted wood) but at least keeping it clean should easy. All that said, it is a great location so if you are looking for something cheap with multiple bedrooms go for it - just be aware it isn't clean.

I’m sorry you did not enjoy my home 100%. I’ve taken your remarks to heart and have gotten rid of that house cleaner and hired a new one. The "rotted wood: – a small 2-ft long patch under the eaves on the side of the house, barely noticeable – was a result of a leak on the roof that I discovered in mid-May when I arrived in Montauk and opened the house for the season. Rather than disturb the summer tenants with a repair job during their stay, I have waited until autumn to make the repair. It has been done and everything is all ship-shape now. I also am having both downstairs bathrooms – the originals since the house was built in the 1980s – renovated this winter with shiny new modern ones and brand new fixtures. This house is my second home and I try treat it with great care, for my own sake and for the enjoyment of my guests.

Good location, disappointing house.

The house is dirty and tired. It appears very little has been done to maintain the property; the kitchen cabinets are pulling away from the wall. Our first trip to IGA in Montauk was to buy ant traps and a broom. The pictures of the rooms in the house are close to accurate, but it’s worth wondering why there aren’t any photos of the bathrooms. They are outdated and have mold and mildew on the walls and in the showers. The cleaning service must spend most of their time on laundry and not enough cleaning the house between tenants. The listing suggests the house has air conditioning; it does, only on the main level, not where the bedrooms are located.

I’m sorry you did not enjoy your time at my home 100%. I have since fired that cleaning service and gotten a new one. I also have hired a contractor who is renovating both downstairs bathrooms, the originals from when the house was built 30 years ago. The bathrooms will look all bright, modern and spiffy this summer. The house does have A/C which cools (and heats) the bright, sunny upstairs living area excellently. Fans are supplied for the downstairs, but they are rarely needed since the casement windows open up, allowing cool ocean breezes to naturally cool the downstairs sleeping area. There are plenty of brooms available, had you looked in both utility closets. This house is my second home and I do my utmost to treat it with kid gloves and to heed my guests’ suggestions.

Our gathering of 6 people had a wonderful stay at the house. The upstairs is basically a giant family room and a kitchen along one wall. This is perfect for a gathering and we all hung out eating, drinking, playing cards, reading and generally just vacationing. The ocean is visible from this room and I would call it a partial ocean view, and I would certainly consider it "scenic". The beach is basically a 5 minute walk down the hill past about 10 houses and then cross the highway along the coast. Great beach and the house has chairs, umbrellas and mats that can conveniently be used to complete the experience. 20 minutes of walking puts you in Montauk but you can also drive there in just a few minutes. Plenty of parking in the town even on the busiest of days (we were there for labor day). BTW, there is also plenty of parking at this house and can fit 4 cars and there is no heigh limitation (if you have a tall van or suv it's no problem). Two things about this house that were exemplary. First, EVERYTHING (infrastructure) works..what I mean is that the windows all open and close, there is no broken furniture, the wifi works, the A/C units all work properly, there is a functioning W/D and iron, all toilets work... and I could keep going. Second, the manager/owner (Sean) is amazingly responsible and gives detailed home operating instructions and communicates well. I have rented many times and his process is among the very best! This makes for a great experience!
