This house is terrific. It offers everything a family needs and more to enjoy a relaxing getaway. Excellently open and laid out floor plan. The pool is great, and given the nature of Shelter Island, everything is reasonably close given driving distance. This was our first time on Shelter Island, the trip was a last minute decision, could have gone either way, but it was excellent-the owner was extremely cooperative in putting this together at the last minute. The house is in excellent shape, kitchen, grill, pool, and gym were all very much enjoyed. Nothing is skimped regarding maintenance on this home. Speed bag in the gym was very much appreciated by my son and I-we both box. I would recommend this home to families with young children. I wish I could recommend it to other groups, but I simply do not have the backgrounds listed. The owner was extremely helpful and informative regarding any questions and orientation to the area, there were no issues that arose in our stay. This was a great vacation and exactly the low key, move at your own pace atmosphere that the family needed. We would stay again.
