We had an amazing time at this property. While Fire Island is a wonderful getaway, I think this house made our stay even better. The location is perfect - a short walk to both town and the beach. The property is ideal. Inside, the bedrooms were all sizeable and plenty of linens and pillows made them comfortable. There were also plenty of towels, both for the beach and for the shower which was nice. The washer and dryer were new and helped us stay ahead of the laundry that piles up on vacation. The kitchen and living areas are very well designed and feautre high-end appliances. While we didn’t eat in during our stay, you definitely could. The outdoor area, including the grilling area and the pool are unique in Fire Island. First, the size - it’s huge. A large outdoor dining area with the grill complement the various other seating areas nicely. Secondly, the pool - it’s fantastic. Our son was 2.5 during our stay so the ocean is a bit too much for him still. Having the pool made made a big difference - he wanted to stay in it all day. They also have every pool float ever made which was fun for all of us. Communication with the owner was easy via email, though not needed since there really weren’t any problems. Overall we had a great time and definitely hope to rent this property again in the future.
