We are a family group of 8 adults and 4 children aged 1-5 and we all had a great time. We brought our own baby supplies (high chair and pack 'n' play) and were happily surprised to find some toys and a chest of costumes to play with. We had bikes delivered by Amagansett Beach & Bicycle, but there were one or two in the shed that we could have used if we had known before we placed the order.
Our week here was almost entirely spent outdoors, other than showering and sleeping. The pool is huge - great for laps - with steps running the full width at the shallow end, which was nice for the kids. There was even an outdoor chest filled with pool toys, puddle jumpers, and pool noodles. Lounge chairs, umbrellas, and lots of beach/pool towels made the pool a lovely place to spend our days.
There's a large lawn area between the deck and the pool, where the kids had room to run and play - and which provided a nice buffer between the deck and pool if a little one took off running. (There's no fence around the pool - just around the whole yard - and there's nothing to prevent a small child from running from the deck to the pool.)
The deck is spacious with a large gas grill that we used daily and a large table (with umbrella) where we ate just about all our meals. It also has a couch area that's nice in the evening. For safety, there is an alarm on the door from the house to the deck that sounds if the door is opened (unless bypassed by a button above the door).
While the house isn't huge compared to some in the area, the open floor plan - with both a living room and a den - worked well for letting us all hang out together, and we appreciated the washer and dryer. The only complaints anyone had were that some of the bedrooms had sky lights so the bright sun woke them and their kids up very early.
Just a short walk or bike ride from the house is the very popular Porco's Deli, great for lunches, snacks, and limited groceries. Then cross Noyack Road into the Southampton Shores community for a walk or bike ride to tennis courts and a lovely private beach on the Peconic Bay, with a swimming area and two kayaks that come with the house. July 4th fireworks right on the beach were a special treat.
We never met the owners of the home, but they were good about answering questions both before we arrived and during our stay. We already have family friends looking into renting this house after seeing our vacation photos.
