Family/Beach Visit

This place was perfect! Nicely appointed and clean and comfortable for my family of 4 and our pup. We enjoyed the deck and walks around the quiet neighborhood. Dennis and Maria are great hosts. Kitchen had everything we could want or need! The beach is just over the bridge and you can easily get to the ocean. Hope to go back and stay there and spend more time at the beach. The back deck is so relaxing beautiful views!

Great Stay

We had a great time at the Smith Point home for a long weekend. Dennis was a great host and made the transaction easy and friendly. Access to the beach was easy. Walk, bike or drive if you have a lot to carry. Only a mile away. Thanks Dennis!

Good location for a drive to beach, but bedding was old & house smelled like smoke.

All the mattresses only had an old thin sheet on them, no mattress pad cover. Linens were old & over used. House smelled like smoke. Easy drive to beach & owner was nice & available when we needed. Otherwise, house was as pictured

That's very funny we've been doing this for 2 years never had anyone else complaining about the mattresses and the Sheets. every bed has a comforter. or any smoke. only great reviews. and as far as a nice drive to the beach it's only a five-minute walk or a one minute car ride !!

Großartige Basis für Strandurlaub

Großzügiges Haus mit toller Terrasse am Wasser! Da die Eigentümer selbst in dem Haus leben, wenn es nicht vermietet ist, ist vor allem die Küche sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Vermieter wohnen dann im Dachgeschoss. Sie sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es ist in der Gegend eine Rarität, in Fußgängerentfernung zum Strand zu sein, der traumhafte Sandstrand ist in gut 15 Min zu erreichen. Dem Ort fehlt leider ein kleines Zentrum mit netten Cafés, dazu muss man in die Hamptons fahren. Danke für eine wunderschöne Woche!

We live in Virginia and family live in NYC. This was an excellent location to have the family get together for a weekend. Close to the beach, on the water in the back, wonderful amenities. The kitchen was the envy of everyone who came and we enjoyed several family meals both inside and on the back deck. Dennis and Maria were both great hosts too. I’m sure everyone who came will have great memories of the event.

This was a very clean and well equipped rental, besides being in a in an amazing location. We were able to paddleboard and also enjoyed the beach immensely. We could walk to the beach and Smith point is truly one of the most beautiful beaches in the world and I have been to many. The rental had beach equipment and anything we needed in the kitchen .

Smith point beach trip

We loved Dennis’ and Maria’s house! 1/2 mile from beautiful beach and park with nice bathrooms, snack shack bar and live music at night! The house is very clean and a wonderful kitchen with anything you could possibly need! We loved the deck that looked over the water and plenty of nice outdoor furniture! AC was great on the 90 degree days for sure! We enjoyed the large tv in the living room with all services you would want. If you are looking for a beach vacation this is the place! Thank you Dennis & Maria:) - Ginger, Tim and family:)
