Hey Roberta, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review of our property, Bayview Cottage. We're thrilled to hear that the house lived up to your expectations – clean and comfortable, just as advertised. It's fantastic that the location worked well for you, being so close to both the ferry and the town. We couldn't be happier that you enjoyed your stay and would love to have you back again in the future. Take care and happy travels, Diane
The cottage was perfect and exactly what my husband and I were looking for. The location was great - only steps from the bay and a 5 minute walk to the beach. Definitely will book another stay.

Great little house in ocean beach near the bay side. Grocery store is right around the corner, short walk into town. Property was clean, Diane was very helpful and met us at the dock with a wheelbarrow to help move in all our stuff. Great place would recommend. This is our second time at this property.

Charming cottage - great location
Nicely appointed cottage with comfy beds and a cute patio to unwind on. Close to good eateries (we liked Maguires, Mathew’s and The Landing. Drinks at the Schooner Inn; pretty, relaxed setting; would skip the food, though). The best was Diane, our incredible host, who did everything she could to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable - she even helped us through some potential trip hiccups (traveling with a special needs animal).

Thank you for choosing our cottage for your first time visiting Fire Island. It was a pleasure to meet you and we hope to see you return next season.
Great little place toward the bay side of ocean beach. Within walking distance to everything. Grocery store is like 30 seconds away around the corner. Very convenient location. Fairly short walk to the beach. Place was clean and comfortable. Would recommend.
We had the best week in Ocean Beach. This cottage is exactly as advertised - charming and clean. Diane met us at the ferry with a wagon so we wouldn’t have to lug everything. Short walk into town, grocery store around the corner. We had our two dogs with us. Diane’s husband recommended a beach a few blocks over from Ocean Beach where dogs are allowed. We brought them there every morning - they had a blast. Would definitely stay here again!

The house was cute with a great location. Diane (owner) met us at the dock - making the location easy to find. Diane was extremely helpful and responsive. Helped with bikes and all other needs. The house provided many amenities, including washer/dryer - convenient outside shower (also full bath inside) - grill with propane.

Perfect cozy ocean beach retreat!
Private feel in a cozy comfortable beach cottage. This has all the conveniences of being in town without the noise or foot traffic. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and bedding, wonderful private outdoor space just steps from the bay and straight down the path to the ocean. Owners/managers were helpful in every way, although very little needed to be done to make this an ideal setting to enjoy a family vacation in paradise. Thank you! We'd love to return next summer!

Thank you for choosing Oruro cottage for your family vacation. We enjoyed meeting you & look forward to seeing you again!
We absolutely loved Diane and Joe's property. It was inviting and cozy and had everything we needed and more for our weeks stay. The use of the beautiful and private outdoor area as well as a grill, outdoor shower, wagon, bikes and laundry was wonderful. The cottage has an awesome location right off the bay and very close walking distance to the restaurants and stores. The beach is about a 5 min walk which we enjoyed the days the weather cooperated! Diane and Joe are awesome hosts, very friendly and accommodating and really went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. I highly recommend their beautiful place and we will be back!

Just came back from week at Diane & Joe’s Ocean Beach Cottage. The house is exactly as pictured and they are very attentive owners. We loved the outdoor shower and the outdoor space was perfect for dining al fresco or chilling after an afternoon at the beach. How convenient it was to have The Pantry right next store to fill in groceries on a whim. Sunset viewing couldn’t be any closer. Have been coming to FI for years with the family but this time it was just the two of us and we didn’t need a big house and didn’t want to stay at a hotel and stumbled on this listing and it was perfect. We would come back
again.

Thank you for your kind words. Please come back soon!
Finding the right beach vacation with 3 young kids (1,3, and 4) is no easy feat. We were hoping for something clean, comfortable, and easy. This cottage exceeded our expectations!!! Close to town, steps from the bay, private, and the accommodations clean and childproof. We caught sunrises in the morning and sunsets at night. Breakfast and dinner at Rachel’s Restaurant and Bakery was our favorite. Scoops for ice cream every night :) Outdoor showers every day and even got in some running on the flat walkways and beach. Kids slept like rocks after a fun day of digging holes and building castles. Wish we could do it all again!! Thank you to our gracious hosts Diane and Joe, who hopefully didn’t mind having 3 kids running around for 6 days straight :) Highly recommend and hope to make this an annual trip!

Thank you for choosing our cottage for your family vacation. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay on Fire Island. We loved meeting you all and do hope to see you again!
The owner Diane met me at the ferry and was as helpful and friendly as she had been from my first inquiry. She walked me to the cottage which I found to be very clean and beautifully decorated. Nothing was dusty or worn. The beds are firm and comfortable with top quality linens. She even supplied dish soap and a new scrubber. I had brought my own in case needed. The kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and herbs for cooks like me. Diane was always easy to reach and pleasant to deal with. When the TV died she immediately the next day had a new one brought over and installed without delay or excuses. The kitchen appliances were clean and worked well, including a coffee grinder! I usually have to bring mine out. The deck furniture was in good condition with clean comfortable cushions. Breakfast outside with the birds was relaxing.
The cottage is small and cozy. It was fine for me as a single guest and had everything I needed. Diane couldn’t have been a better host. I’m looking forward to going back next summer.
The cottage House was perfect for our family.. Diane was the perfect host and responded to any of our questions or our needs. Would recommend to anyone.
I booked this home for a week in August. The home was as advertised, charming and perfect for a week at the beach. Every convenience was within walking distance. The sunsets were sensational. Very family friendly. Awesome host! I will definitely be back.

Thank you for choosing our cottage for your vacation. It was a pleasure meeting you and I look forward to seeing you again.
We loved staying at Diane and Joe's cottage in Ocean Beach, Fire Island! The outdoor space was great, and we were so happy that it was gated in, so that our dogs could be off leash outside :) Diane was also very understanding about how yappy my little dog can be, which I really appreciated!
The bedrooms are very comfortable, and felt "equal", which may be a concern for people splitting the price. We didn't use the pull-out bed in the living room. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, the coffee makers, etc. which was great.
I was worried about noise bing so close to town and the back of some restaurants, but it was only loud on two nights out of seven. However it didn't matter too much as the AC drowned out the noise.
Great cottage, we would love to return!
If you're looking to explore Ocean Beach, you won't find a better location! It's very comfortable and a good value. The owner was very communicative and welcoming.
Such a comfortable, pleasant stay in Ocean Beach for my partner and I! The location of the cottage is great, accommodations have everything you need, and Diane & Joe are great hosts. We hope to return.
