Family Montauk Vacation
My family of 5 (3 boys ages 7-10) spent 5 nights here and had a very pleasant experience and are already talking about our next Montauk vacation.
The property was very much as expected and represented in the pictures provided on VRBO with a view of the lake, which was a great way to begin and end the day (especially since we were able to hear some of the live music at the nearby restaurants). The location was great as it was walking distance to the Gosman's Dock and beach area.
The rental also came with guest membership to the Montauk Lake Club on the other side of the lake, where there was a pool, small beach and water activities (kayaks, paddle boats, etc.). This was one of the selling points on the rental and we wish we could have used the club more, but couldn't due to weather and other planned activities in the area (fishing).
We had to be in contact with Steve a few times to address some questions / issues we had and he was very responsive (grill didn't work, thermostat set to 52 degrees when we showed up).
A few words of consideration prior to booking:
- Since it is townhouse, you are co-existing with others and there may be situations of loud neighbors. I think our situation was an anomaly because all of the other tenants were very quiet
- The furniture was not comfortable at all. Like I said above, the pictures in the listing represent the place well and the furniture is as comfortable as it looks (best way to describe it is that it's like a Springhill Suites-style furniture). This applies to the living rooms and beds
- We have 3 very active boys and there wasn't a lot of room on the property to play without disturbing the peace. We did make use, however of the park a couple of miles down the road by town where they have ball fields and a playground.
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here and commend Steve on maintaining a very nice property and offering additional amenities to complement the quiet townhouse community.
