We really enjoyed our stay. The home is very basic but comfortable and is right at the edge of lovely parts of the island. Grill and outdoor shower were great amenities. Thanks, Frank!

Myself and five friends spent the weekend at Frank and Mara’s and it was perfect! We enjoyed being so close to a beautiful beach and walking distance to many places to eat. The house was cozy and a great home base to explore the island. Frank came to get us from the ferry and gave us a number of helpful recommendations. We’d definitely return!

This was a perfect location. The garden is adorable. Sitting out there in the mornings bird watching and smelling the sweet flowers was so nice. Just a short walk to the beach too. We had the most wonderful time.

The house was exactly as advertised and just what we were looking for. It’s open and comfortable. We loved the different outdoor deck spaces, the beautiful gardens, and the outdoor shower! Quiet location with an old Fire Island feel. Easy back and forth to the beach. We would definitely come back!

Frank’s home is quite lovely- the pictures do not do it justice at all. We were a small group of women getting together to celebrate a milestone birthday. Everything about our stay was easy from booking to checkout, and Frank was so helpful in getting us situated- he made us feel welcome and right at home from the beginning. Location is great- steps to the beach, a short walk to OB and close enough to everything fun in OBP-but not TOO close for comfort! I would love to come back and stay again, anytime.

Everything you could need in the kitchen. Outdoor shower was the only shower working but actually quite enjoyed it!!! Frank met us at the ferry and gave us the grand tour. Even pulled a wagon full of our stuff on a very hot day!
