Such a special place

The house has all of the touches of a family home. The beds were extremely comfortable and the house was very clean. The basement is a dream for kids - all of that said, our favorite space was the backyard… the adults spent every night by the outdoor seating area with the TV and the kids couldn’t get enough of the pool and soccer net. All around a great stay!!

Perfect getaway from NYC

We loved our stay at the property. Super clean, very spacious, great outdoor area for adults to grill and enjoy the gazebo by the pool with a huge lawn/ soccer field for kids to run while not at the pool. The hosts were a pleasure to work with with fast responses and well organized manuals, and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Definitely coming back.

Fun and relaxing retreat

Beautiful home and property with so much to do. We enjoyed the house so much, we ended up relaxing and swimming in the pool every day instead of trekking around to find things to keep us occupied. We felt like we had our own private oasis and only left to go to dinner at some of the restaurants. Quiet neighborhood with quick access to the town, Greenport, the wineries and shopping. Owner was super responsive and helpful. We wish we stayed longer!

Could not have been better!! Huge home, huge pool, huge backyard!!! Pool floats there for the heated pool, great hot tub. If you like grilling, welcome to nirvana. Bikes available to ride to the beach or just around the neighborhood. Owner is super responsive. Peaceful, quiet. Sad to leave! If you have kids, the basement has a basketball game, ping pong table and big screen TV. I’m an adult and I loved it!!

Beautiful Home / Relaxing Stay!!

We stayed for almost two weeks in August. We LOVED this property and would definitely stay here again. Communication with the host was great (e.g. helpful tips, detailed instructions, etc.). What we liked: *The house is comfortable and very clean. *The pool is awesome. Backyard is huge with a cabana, grill, fire pit and even a soccer goal!! *Lots to entertain kids inside: Nok hockey, basketball arcade, foosball, board games, puzzles, books, etc. *Separate office space and good connectivity if you need to get a little work done. *Separate gym with basic weights and peloton. *Great location: quiet/safe neighborhood, less than a five minute drive to Southold village, close to vineyards/beaches There are too many good things to name them all. You can't go wrong staying here!!

Great Family Vacation

My family and I stayed at the property for 7 days during a heat wave! The house was as nice as advertised. The pool was beautiful and refreshing throughout the heat wave. Home was well stocked with paper goods soap, etc. House was cleaned up and spotless prior to our arrival.Communication with the property owner was excellent. Definitely a 5 star review!

Great girls weekend!

The house was idyllic. We love the farmhouse meets beach decor (and the heated kitchen floors!). The bedrooms were perfect — out biggest regret was not soaking in the tub in the master bedroom. Our only watch out is the hot water: you’ll want to stagger your showers if you’re a large group. The shared spaces are great for entertaining or just relaxing between excursions. Between the basketball in the basement and the trampoline in the garage/gym, we felt like kids in the movie Blank Check. (TLDR; classic 90s kid film and a must watch). We can’t wait to come back in the summer, when the pool is open!

Cozy Family Stay

We stayed after Christmas and through New Years and had a wonderful time. My 3 and 5 year old found plenty to keep themselves occupied with the toys, trampoline, and finished basement. The adults enjoyed the fireplace, reading nook, and playing basketball with the kids. While we were there in the off-season we found plenty to do, and Leor gave us all the good spots to hit up. We can't wait to go back when the pool is open!

Easy family getaway

We had a wonderful stay here at the end of July. Host was super responsive and answered all my questions almost immediately. The house is in a great spot. Easy access to Orient Point, Greenport, vineyards and farms. Our kids fully enjoyed the pool, basketball court in the detached garage, and the rec room in the basement. Everything we could have asked for and more in this house. Definitely made this one of the easiest and relaxing stays away from home.

About the host

Hosted by Leor Shapiro

Host profile image
Owners are a family of four (with a 10 year old boy and 7 year old girl) who purchased the house in January 2021. The family wanted to make this a true "home" for families to enjoy for years to come and fell in love with the local area, farms (and wineries) that make it feel very special, private and a great place to create memories.

Why they chose this property

Relax by the oversized pool, sit by the fire pit, enjoy all the local wineries (within 5-10 mins from the house), be near all the farms (goats, horses, sheep, chickens) and all the local beaches and trails. It's a very special and relaxing location from sunrise on the front porch to sunset over then backyard.

What makes this property unique

Purchases, updated and furnished in early 2021, detached garage converted into a full gym with sauna/peloton/weights/bands/kids trampoline etc, large backyard for running and playing, updated bathrooms, basement entertainment with pop a shot, nok hockey, kids plays area, new 70" TV, fooseball/plastic dart board areas and much much more. Backyard has outdoor TV, hot tub, outdoor shower, couches on the deck and pergola seating area.
