Could not recommend this place more! An absolutely gorgeous location and the perfect get away from the city. Anita is an incredible host and her property is one of my favorite places I've ever stayed. Don't hesitate to book!

Great location right on the water with amazing views. Quiet but easily accessible to surrounding fun. House was great. Slight sulfur taste to water but I brushed my teeth with it no problem. Also showering was fine. I didn’t detect any smell of the house. It was fun.

We had a wonderful time at this magical place. The seaside air is amazing and the views of sea, sky, and wetlands are extraordinary. The house is cozy and well-stocked with comfortable bedding, ample kitchen utensils, and various toys for floating or paddling in the Great South Bay. We especially loved the upstairs living/sleeping area. It is full sunlight and fresh air, affords panoramic views, and provides a deeply relaxing atmosphere for a good night’s sleep. We watched the sun rise and set from the wraparound deck on this level, while listening to the gentle waves of the bay lapping at the beach. If you can pull yourself away from all this, the village of Bellport is charming, and there is a terrific fish market in Mastic.
Anita is a wonderful and responsive host and this private oasis is a great place to unwind and recharge. It really embodies the Scandinavian concept of “hygge”. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to return!

This is a tough review to write. I wish I could give it 5 stars with so much to love: the fabulous location and house design -- a wrap-around deck on the waterfront where you can watch the sun and moon rise and set...a peaceful sanctuary is just what we were looking for. The house is clean, full of cool art and relics, and stocked with pretty much everything you need, except ice and water. We noticed that others here recommended bringing in your own water, and glad we did, as the well has a bad smell. But it wasn't really a problem. Anita, the host, is very responsive and cordial. The local neighbors were friendly and helpful. We even heard the local wild peacock the first night we arrived!
The big issue with this home is the air quality. It is an old house by the sea, so I guess it's not a surprise that it has a musty smell. I thought we could get used to it, but several members of our family have asthma, so it became a real problem by Day 2. My husband didn't mind it, so, if you aren't sensitive to mold or have lung issues, then it probably won't bother you. We had to spend a lot of time on the deck, but that wasn't a problem since they have a bunch of really comfy chairs to lounge on. (We did notice the upper deck wobbles when you walk on it and that made me a bit nervous) The house is definitely in need of some TLC in terms of maintenance, but it is one of the coolest homes I have spent time in. Would be great for a group of friends or couples. I imagine the owners had a lot of fun in this home over the years -- I heard stories of a beach club and neighborhood clam bakes that harkens back to its glory days. The marshes and bay waters are beautiful and endless, though there's not much of a beach -- it feels more like a lake. The yard is nice and the kids played in the grass. We went to Fire Island to the beach to swim about 20 mins away. It was nice there and they have a bar/restaurant on the beach.
All in all: a home with great bones, a great location but not great air quality, even with all the windows open on a cool, beautiful day. If you don't mind that, then you will love this unique home and nature sanctuary.

The views are wonderful! Home is stocked with all you could need to enjoy your stay. But the home is full of mold and the odor is unpleasant. And I am being nice. The water must be well water and needs attention because it smells like rotten eggs. And the showers have no water pressure at all. The home is damp and the A/C units in the windows make the home damper. The driveway and parking was an issue.
I never leave bad reviews but for the amount of money I payed this home is not worth it. It was not comfortable and I am totally bummed out. And I am sorry to feel this way.

Magic
Our little getaway was magical courtesy of owner Anita who checked us in with her sweetheart pooch. My husband and our 13 yr old lab, Eva, enjoyed breathtaking sunrise to sunset views of the bay and fire island. Wonderful seafood from nearby Mastic. There was no reason to leave the house. We had friends in one night and rushed back from others in East Hampton to relax and enjoy our piece of heaven as the sun went down. We can’t wait to go back!

What a great vacation we had here! The place was comfortable and well-appointed, comfortable beds, and the upstairs room commands views of the bay and nature preserve that are simply spectacular! Sitting out on the backyard deck for breakfast, and on the upper deck in the evening was simply delightful! Easy access to some great restaurants in Bellport. And the host is so responsive! Highly recommend!

A Slice of Paradise
My husband snd I absolutely loved this wonderful house. It is quaint and private and so peaceful. There is every anyone would need to cook anything! The upstairs bed was so comfortable and the decks are perfectly situated for the best views of the water and the marshes. Bellport is a delightful town as well.

Great Location! Great Views!
This was the cutest little home in Brookhaven; the views were beyond comprehension. It was a short distance to downtown area and grocery. Anita was very responsive and sent reminders for trash/clean up at departure. I would recommend you bring your own wash cloths; I wash my face every night and had to do it with my hands.

Labor Day visit
M family and I visited the Bellport area over Labor Day. The weather was great which meant we spent a lot of time on the deck. The views were awesome. The place was perfect for us as we grilled and relaxed . We had all the amenities we needed and the house was comfortable. Only issue is getting used to the shower water smell. It was a small issue.
Anita was friendly and funny. Super host. Highly recommend.

A Magical Spot
This was our group's second stay at this special property - and we cannot wait to return again. Anita's home is truly a magical spot. The views, the home, the water - it is the exact place you want to go to escape for a few days, or over a week as we did. The home has so much character and is very comfortable for a group to stay in and also work from as needed. We enjoyed grilling, the decks, morning walks along the water, peace and quiet, and making meals in the kitchen. Anita is lovely host and reachable as needed. We will be back!

Gorgeous rustic oasis
It’s a beautiful beachfront property less than 1.5 hr drive from NYC. The views are unbelievable - we saw the sunrise in the morning over the wetlands and set in the evening over the Atlantic Ocean, Perseid Meteors at night, family of deers and bunnies and the ocean waves all day. Anita is extremely helpful and easy to communicate with and was always available throughout our stay. The location was convenient with a cute beach across the road and Downtown Bellport only 8 mins drive away. The only reason I take off one star is cause we did find a couple of things in the house inconvenient - the upper section has only one cooling unit and it wasn’t able to cool down effectively especially during the summer afternoons. Also we got a lot of bugs and mosquitoes during our stay probably cause of the rains

My family, including 3 dogs, thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house. The property is surrounded by a stunning nature preserve which can be enjoyed from the wrap around upper floor balcony. The house was clean and well equipped and the upstairs was bright and offered great views. The one negative is definitely the water ( as others have mentioned) so plan on buying plenty of drinking water. This is a great spot for dogs - ours loved playing in the yard and running on the beach! Anita was quick to respond and very accommodating.

The house was comfortable for 6 adults, with a nice deck for our family dinners and a gorgeous upstairs wrap around deck with sensational views of the sound and colorful sunsets. There were grassy areas on both sides of the house that were perfect for our two small dogs to play. Right across the street was a narrow, sandy beach which made for a pleasant walk , swim, or just to sit in a beach chair and enjoy the lapping waves. It was a quick trip to drive to the charming little town of Bellport. The owner was easy to get in touch with and the house was so well equipped that we never needed to call or text her with questions. I hope we can manage to go back again.

Although our stay was beset with the bad weather that most everyone in the east suffered in July 2021 - hot, wet, humid and, here in the wetlands, with probably more than the usual share of mosquitos, we had a fabulous time. The house was pretty much as described - a fabulous upstairs with wide decks, tremendous views of the bay and wetlands, and very comfortable king bed with lots of area for 2 kids to camp out on the blow-up beds that we brought. The downstairs was less dramatic and more functional - a smallish bedroom fine for two adults, a couple of trundle beds that in attached rooms that would be fine for kids, a big eat-in kitchen with most everything needed, and a large deck with a big table and wonderful charcoal smoker/bbg that was perfect for outdoor meals and large enough to seat a party of 8 when we had guests for dinner. The window air conditioners were essential that week and more than sufficient to keep things cool and dry. The two yards were great for soccer and badminton, though a little buggy ("no problem if you keep moving," reported our 12 year old grandson). You're at the end of a small road with two other houses and a vast wetland for neighbors, so the privacy and quiet were wonderful, especially with kids and dogs. The sand bay beach in front of the house and across the unused (except by you) access road is narrow, but the water was delicious, and we couldn't keep the kids and dogs out of it. The furnishings were comfortable and attractive - very much a person's home - so we felt privileged to be there. The house is within an easy drive of some good restaurants, seafood markets, and farmers stands and so we had everything we needed from the world...and away from it. We'll be back.

Great spot with nearly private Bay access right across the road. Our family of four, two young kids, and a couple enjoyed the space comfortably, semi-splitting the upstairs and downstairs by family units. Lots of excellent spots, such as the grill and deck and the bird watching and storm spotting from the upstairs deck.
