OBP stay

Loved being on Fire Island, this unit was very conveniently located but def needs some updates on sheets, couches, bikes. When you charge top dollar prices, the homes amenities should be in good shape

Great despite the issue below:

Property is cozy and quaint just large enough for two people.The wifi code in the email and posted in the property were different. We expected a call back from the property manager but never got it. The weather was fantastic.

Good location inaccurate description

The location was great and the place was clean but we were completely misinformed about the property. We were told there would be access to an outdoor shower,AC, toiletries, linens and a grill. We did not have access to the outdoor shower, there was no AC, toiletries or extra linens. There was no lighter to start the grill or any utensils or tools to use it. We were asked to keep the thermostat at 68 , there was no thermostat.

Bed bugs, back communication. Went into the rental and couch was very cruddy. We used bikes with the lock combo they provided (worked) and then later tried to unlock and the combo no longer work. Contacted property manager who said I was lying! Provided video proof, no reply. Later came back to property at midnight to sleep discovered bedbugs on pull out couch and main bed! Had to scramble to move to hotel so didn't even sleep there. Came home a day early, and even though I immediately did laundry, vaccummed luggage, saw a bedbug on my floor this morning. I am waiting to hear still from the property where I never slept for a refund.

Lovely Getaway

Our bungalow was clean and well-equipped and a short walk from the beach, restaurants and a food market. Communication was great and check-in was easy. Will probably rent this or a similar unit again when the weather is warmer, as it was a little on the chilly side in October.

Sweet little Ocean Bay condo

Clean, comfortable, and colorful with the fun yellow accents. We are a family of four originally from NYC and we like cozy so the fact that the kitchen and deck are small was fine with us. The photos are a good representation which I always appreciate. Great location!

Small Summer Cottage

It's a perfect cottage for couple people. Restaurants, beach, bike rental shop and ferry are in close distance. The cottage was clean and the check in/out process easy.

Book it!

We loved this fully stocked, super clean rental! Came stocked with some essentials, extra towels, beach chairs, umbrella, and even books to read & games to play! We loved using the outdoor shower for sandy feet and to rinse off our dog :) location was excellent and right next to the ferry, beach bars, and ocean access - thank you for a great time! We’ll be back soon :) :)

I would definitely stay here again!

The Surfcomber (Unit 1) was everything we hoped to expect. It’s pet friendly which allowed us to bring our 3 y/o French Bulldog; spacious, clean, and private. The entrances for each unit is semi-separate (along side of each other) but the patio was ours alone with a grill, table, and outdoor shower. The walk from the ferry was very short and the distance to beach is slightly longer. We are very happy and would definitely rent again.

Great little apt for a couple.

We were here last September and again this year. We stayed 11 nights, grilled a lot at home, really good food market in Seaview, lots of walks to neighbor communities, enjoyed sunsets, sunrises, and even a moonrise. Very close to ferry, a couple restaurants, and a small food market. All good but I would suggest to remove the large table on the deck for a small one so we could have more open deck space.

Perfect beach spot

The stay was excellent. The walk to the beach was very short and there were a number of places to grab a drink and food within a short walking distance. The house was clean and provided us with all we needed. We spent most of our time at the beach. The location and the cleanliness of the house was the highlight. Overall I would highly recommend this house for anyone looking for a good, clean place to stay that's very close to the beach.

Great little place

Lovely little bungalow that has been remodeled with a great location! AC is a big plus and a short walk to ferry, Schooners and Flynn's. Beach Chairs were a plus as was the out door shower. Bathroom was a bit cramped but not a big issue. would stay again.

Great Getaway for Beach Lovers

I have been visiting Fire Island for generations. It’s hard to find a place that is not a busy hotel or large rental. I needed some quite time alone and this was a perfect spot for me. It would also be good for a couple or small family. There are no cars on Fire Island so you have to walk everywhere or rent a bike. This place is conveniently located - close to the ferry, centrally located in Ocean Bay Park, and a two block walk to the beach. The place was clean and comfortable. It had a kitchen and outdoor grill so I enjoyed cooking while I was there. Every night I took a walk to the ferry dock to see amazing sunsets. The two busy restaurants / bars are a short walk away if you’re interested in the social scene. There is a small grocery store within walking distance as well. Most impressive was the Vacasa staff that saw to it I had everything I needed and that my stay was very enjoyable. I definitely can’t wait to visit again. 🌞🌊

Piece of Paradise

This is the second time I have stayed on this property with my young children. The property is clean and inviting and super close to the ferry. Housekeeping had forgotten to stock something expected prior to our arrival. I called the property manager and he was there within ten minutes! This is the perfect getaway! My family loves it and we look forward to going back!
