About this property

Hither Hills Beach Retreat; Walk to Ocean Beach & Town; Pool; Jacuzzi; Kid Ready

RR #21-1041 / LIFE SAVING AED "DEFIBRILLATOR" ON PROPERTY

OUR PROPERTY IS IN PRIME HITHER HILLS WITH PRIVATE OCEAN BEACH ENTRANCES FOR WALKING AND PARKING. YOU CAN WALK TO MONTAUK'S BEST BEACH AND TO TOWNSEND, PLUS GURNEY'S, FROM OUR PROPERTY OR LOUNGE IN THE SALT POOL. BEACH PASS INCLUDED.

OUR LARGE PRIVATE OUTDOOR JACUZZI IS OPEN ALL YEAR ROUND; POOL OPEN MAY thru OCTOBER

Highlighting our property -- aside from the quick walk to the ocean beach or town -- is a large, salt-water swimming pool that you can heat if desired, a six person outdoor spa/jacuzzi, and a custom-built, climate controlled, pool house (with sleeper couch for lounging if you need it). All shrouded in glorious privacy. The 20'x40' pool has two shallow ends for enhanced lounging and is a 'sport' design, perfect for volleyball and other pool games.

We are also close to the famous Gurney's Resort, which is walkable in 25 minutes, or just 4 minutes by car. Or take one of our many bikes...

HITHER HILLS properties, like this one, come with restricted access to our own beautiful beach below the bluffs along Old Montauk Highway. You get a parking pass for your car to use at the small parking lots at the beach and a key that opens the barrier chain. ONLY HITHER HILLS residents or renters, NOT other homes in Montauk, have this access. Hence the premium prices...and experience!

With that....Our renovated home has 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 2 great outdoor showers! The private, climate controlled poolhouse has a sleeper couch for lazy poolside lounging when you need it. Ours is a true beach house, not just a house at the beach...and Hither Hills needs no further explanation for those that know and love Montauk; private beach rights on the most beautiful and least crowded sand in the Hamptons.

Our home is carefully renovated and furnished throughout with classic white everywhere, replete with beachy antiques and curios we've collected over the years, plus a vast collection of books, many related to the ocean, fishing, and nature. Our home also has two entirely separate living rooms with large flat screens, upstairs and down, so cooking shows on one, sports on the other during rainy days. The half acre property is shrouded in trees on all sides yet has a cozy lawn and a very large and private heated pool, jacuzzi/spa, and air conditioned pool house. A truly luxurious property.

The 4 bedrooms have two queens, one full bunk set, and one twin bunk set, and are nicely spaced across the home's two floors, giving true privacy when you need it. The climate controlled pool house has a pullout sofa for lounging during lazy afternoons in private seclusion.

The home has 6 separate zones (incl all bedrooms) for AC/Heat so you'll never suffer during those hot (or cold) days. The pool house also has it's own separate AC and heat.

The large deck is sun drenched all day and leads to a glorious, large and private outdoor shower. The deck's large round table seats 8-10 comfortably for fresh striper from the grill.

Additional amenities include 2 pull-out sleeper couches for guests (one is in the pool house), second refrigerator/freezer for extra storage, a storage shed with 5 bikes you can use on the many trails around Montauk, plus cable tv, internet, and a wireless networked printer.

Our custom, air conditioned, pool house has its own large screen TV (total of 4 on the property), vanity sink, sleeper couch, and plenty of seating so you can cool off during those relaxing days in the pool. The adjacent covered gazebo and large in-ground Jacuzzi can present tough decisions!

And as our home is in the eastern part of Hither Hills, you can walk to the Surfside Inn (not to be confused with Surf Lodge) for dinner or just drinks...since you won't need to drive home!

Also, we have a child safe home...our 2nd floor deck has locking gates at both stairways and our interior stairway has a permanent locking gate as well.

The walk to the beautiful ocean beach is about 7 minutes and you have a choice of two entrances. Or drive in 1 minute with the provided parking pass.

Our kitchen has state-of-the-art appliances, including an induction cooktop for you foodies. New washer/dryer as well. Bedrooms have plenty of hanging and storage space plus additional closets throughout the house.

We take safety seriously so you will find several fire extinguishers and smoke detectors throughout, just in case. Automatic outdoor motion sensor lights provide convenience and safety at night...and tip you off when the deer wander through the yard! We also have an AED (aka Defibrillator) in the home...again, just in case.

IMPORTANT: We take pride in the condition and care of our home. While normal wear and tear is expected and anticipated, excessive wear caused by carelessness, overcrowding, or indifference will be noticed and documented on references you will receive from us. Strictly NO SMOKING ON PROPERTY and NO LOUD NOISE OUTSIDE AFTER 9PM in order to maintain the tranquility of our neighborhood.

Note: If you have events planned (birthdays, anniversaries, bachelor & bachelorette parties, etc.) you must make this known during your initial inquiry. We may or may not agree to accept your booking based on event details, on a case-by-case basis.

Weekly professional cleaning required. Utilities are included in the rental price. Propane for heating the pool is discretionary so usage charges incurred will be withheld from security. Pets may be allowed with additional security on case-by-case basis. Please inquire.

Thank you for viewing our property and happy vacationing!

Beautiful house, great for group visit for Montauk. Pool and hot tub were great, living rooms are great for your family or group, and excellent location central or 5 minutes to just about everything. Good to know that checkin process is more involved than described on listing; allow 25 minutes for an orientation by the owner either in person or over the phone. Checkout instructions were more involved than anticipated, whereas we expected standard tasks to be included in the cleaning fee. Overall, really enjoyed our stay.

Great neighborhood, beautiful pool, and good communication

The home was toddler friendly and our family was quite comfortable during our stay. The house comes with many rules, which we did our best to adhere to and had a great time overall. Communication was great and our much needed week in Montauk was a success. Thank you again for your hospitality!

Perfect house for an extended family group

Our family group of 10 -- parents, grandfather and kids who are high school and college age -- had a lovely, relaxing week. The house is well appointed and easy to spread out in. We enjoyed the gorgeous yard, outdoor dining table big enough for the whole group, fantastic pool and hot tub. The pool house, two living rooms and three TVs made it easy to accommodate everyone's activities, games and viewing. The beach is a quick walk away, easy for multiple visits every day. Carter was a great host, attentive to what we needed. All in all, a great property.

Wedding in Montauk

Carter was above and beyond if you contacted him for anything he got right back to you and mad you feel like it was your home away from home. House was perfect as my family was there for my sons wedding out at the Bluff. Pool was absolutely beautiful and got some great pictures of the groomsman before the wedding. Hope to do again sometime soon as it was a great house to have my kids and grandchildren all in place. Thank you, Beth

Lovely Location

My husband and I have loved Montauk for years but had never shared it with our grown kids. This house was the perfect place to introduce the family to Montauk. Great location to be near all the area has to offer yet you are tucked away with privacy when you want it. The pool is definitely a highlight. We had some not so great weather for beach days so being able to enjoy the pool was perfect. Also my granddaughter loved it. House is great for being together but has enough little spaces to have time to yourself. My husband used the bikes every morning- my son worked in the pool house- plenty of seating to eat lunch or lounge on the deck. We enjoyed our week at this Montauk Oasis.

A little slice of heaven

This property was amazing and worth the money! We absolutely loved every minute of our stay. While the house itself is much "cozier" than the photos would lead you to believe, the outstanding garden and pool more than make up for the space. We were lucky to have 2 gorgeous weeks of weather during our stay. The beach truly is an easy walk (unless you plan to drag a ton of stuff with you - the shed holds a plethora of beach gear from chairs to boogie boards, and more!). And, if you know how crowded the area beaches can get, you'll truly appreciate the limited beach access - lots of space with no one to kick sand onto you. We got to enjoy 4th of July fireworks without the hassle of getting into the car. It was perfect! When we weren't enjoying the beach, we were in the awesome salt water pool having a blast with all the floats and toys. The pool is well maintained and was perfect for our group of 8 (4 adults/4 kids) and the occasional guests. The kitchen is well appointed, including some high-end utensils and appliances, making it a pleasure to prepare meals in. The neighborhood is beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed daily walks through the area and seeing the occasional wildlife - deer, rabbits and what we're pretty sure were turkeys! There were a few small issues that came up during our stay, but Carter was always on the ball! He was super responsive, even to the most inane questions/concerns. It's clear from the moment you meet him, that Carter truly wants you to enjoy this property as much as he and as family do. We did! We hope to return one day! Thank you Carter!

Renters Beware

It pains me to have to leave this review, because the host Carter was very friendly and made it clear that he and his family put a great deal of effort into maintaining the property. With that said, I feel I have an obligation to future renters to provide transparent feedback about our experience, as we would have chosen to stay at another property and would have likely had a much more enjoyable vacation had someone been kind enough to do the same: Context: Two families (4 adults between 38-43, 5 kids between 1.5 and 7); we live elsewhere on Long Island and took a week off to hang out in Montauk Pros: - Great location close to beach and town - Pretty backyard / pool area with space for kids to play - Lots of babyproofing (i.e. baby gates on all stair entrances) Cons: - EARWIGS: I didn't know what these bugs were until we found them in our laundry at this property and looked them up -- unfortunately we, as well as the family we were staying with, ended up transporting some of these bugs back to our homes and had to wash EVERYTHING to get rid of them - We were charged hundreds of dollars extra for basic things like "internet, cable & electricity" and propane used to heat the pool; this is listed in the fine print AFTER the non-refundable booking is made, so keep it in mind - There is clearly a very serious mildew, if not mold, problem throughout the property including all over the outdoor furniture, on the beach equipment available for guests to use ... the patio area looks like it's never been pressure washed and most things are covered in grime - what would have been a pleasant place to sit and lounge made all of us cringe - There is no central air, only wall units for AC ... we were there during a heat wave and the result was that the inside felt very muggy / dank all of the time - Hot tub got very grimy and discolored super easily. The water felt like slime on our skin. We tried to explain this to Carter but he said it was b/c we'd left it uncovered and that our kids had gone in wearing sunscreen (NOT TRUE). - The "half bath" in the "master bedroom" is a very misleading description - this must have been a converted (non walk in) closet - No bathroom in pool house; only 2 full baths inside the house and the hot water in one tub didn't work The takeway: We all felt like we were "glamping" and even though we managed to have fun, we ended up leaving a day early b/c we all just wanted to go home and sleep in our own beds

10/10 Stay in Hither Hills

Home suited us perfectly for a 10-day vacation with family and friends. The back yard is absolutely fantastic and was perfect for summer grill-outs and pool days. The neighborhood is very quiet and location was spot-on just a 5 minute walk to the beach. Can’t say enough good things about Carter’s home - even better than the pictures!!

Beautiful private retreat in Montauk

This is a very special house located in the beautiful Hither Hills. Our family of 5 (college age and young adult) plus a couple friends enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere this house provided. The pool and outdoor areas (porches, hot tub, out door dining) are very spacious and provide for multiple areas for activity. The 2 separate living rooms allowed my 24 yr old to work remote while the rest of us continued on with our day. There is a rustic lived in quality that you find at any well loved beach house. Carter, the owner was very responsive and accommodating during our entire stay. We would absolutely stay here again

Great Family Getaway

Nothing negative to say. The owner came to greet us on our arrival, and showed us around the property. The house and grounds are family friendly with safety features for toddlers. Plenty of room for a large group. Parking for one car at the beach, and a short walk if all cannot fit in the car. The two outdoor showers are great when returning from the beach.

Amazing house

I came here with 10 other girlfriends to celebrate my bachelorette and truly enjoyed my time. Carter is an amazing host and was helpful with anything we needed. Additionally, the house is in a quiet enough neighborhood that it's relaxing but close enough to town center and the beach if you want to go out. Montauk has a special place in my heart and I'm so glad I got to rent this house and share this place with my friends. I highly recommend booking this house.

Everything about our stay was 5 star. The host and his wife greeted us, made us immediately comfortable, and were available when we had questions. The house was clean, well kept, and had all the amenities one needs to be comfortable, and the pool, jacuzzi and grounds were spectacular. Proximity to the beach and Montauk town were great, and we lacked for nothing. We definitely plan a return trip! Martha and Peter
