About this property
Fire Island Getaway-Weeks/Midweeks/Weekends-100 yards to Beach! FAMILY-FRIENDLY!
Bright & airy, fully-equipped 3-bedroom house with two decks (one with a huge cedar outdoor shower) and a balcony deck - 100 yards to the Beach! Our clean, comfy bungalow is in the nicest, family-friendliest section of Ocean Bay Park (close to Seaview) and is only 6 houses from the OCEAN!
Monthly, full-week, midweek & weekend rentals are available from April through November. Long weekends are available for holidays.
The house sleeps up to 6 and has 2 bathrooms, 1 with a shower. All bedrooms have air conditioning for the summer season, as well as screened windows, wall-mounted and oscillating fans. One downstairs bedroom has a queen bed and the other bedroom has two twin beds. The upstairs bedroom has a private bathroom, queen bed, wraparound windows and double French doors that lead to a private balcony deck. There is a front deck for picnic dining and grilling, and a large rear deck with lounge chairs surrounded by tall bamboo and holly trees.
The house comes with a Weber BBQ (propane included), bicycles, wagon, beach gear, games, toys, etc.!
We are in the quieter area, with mostly families and homeowners. We rent to families and MELLOW, mature groups who are OK with our STRICT house and community noise rules. Parties are not allowed!! Minimum age to book is 25.

Why they chose this property
I grew up coming to the island, staying in a house a block away from this house - where my kids have been coming since they were born. I have friends in many other Fire Island communities, and feel strongly that we have found the best spot - close to stores, restaurants and nature walks, but also quiet, uncrowded and unique in many ways. The friends I grew up with moved to California and Boston, but still come out every summer with their kids and stay at their families' houses - all within a few blocks of each other. Some of our guests have been renting from us since their kids were babies, and keep coming back, joined by their now grown-up kids.
So yeah, I think this must be the place!

What makes this property unique
The house is a simple, classic Fire Island bungalow design that has been lovingly updated with modern amenities, an upstairs addition and balcony deck. We meticulously maintain the property, along with the property manager and cleaning contractor, who has been working with us for over 25 years.
