We had a delightful time staying in this house. it had everything we needed for preparing meals, playing games, relaxing, going to the beach, and riding bikes around the island. There were plenty of towels for the beach, as well as an umbrella and chairs. The patio had a barbecue that worked well. The house was immaculate and beautifully appointed. The owners were extremely generous in letting us use all their possessions . There were great books on the shelves and the art work was extremely tasteful. Kim, who manages the property was great. She was extremely helpful without being intrusive and very responsive when we had a minor issue with a bathtub drain. We had a wonderful time, enjoying this beautiful island. The location is easily accessible to all the beaches and restaurants, super market and Shelter Island Heights. We loved watching the wild life-turkeys, birds, butterflies and the roosters, pigs and sheep across the street. I can't recommend it highly enough. The only caveat I would have is if you like super firm mattresses, you might want to bring something as the mattresses, while very comfortable are foam.

About the host

Hosted by Anne

Host profile image
Anne & Eugene purchased this Shelter Island home together in 2020. Longtime fans of the Island, via friends, were so excited to find a house in the center of Shelter Island. While they spend a lot of time on Shelter Island with friends, they are happy to offer their home for rental a few times during the year.

Why they chose this property

The home, nicknamed "Gracie," is so perfectly located on Shelter Island. A huge plus is that so much of what the island has to offer (beaches, trails, shops, restaurants, and services) are all within just a short walk from the front door.

The house is spacious but also casual and intimate. It is large enough for folks to spread out and find their own space but cozy enough for group gatherings. The previous owners did a great job renovating the home and it is perfectly outfitted with top fixtures and appliances, as well as all of the comforts of a modern home.

What makes this property unique

For folks who love movies, the big new TV in the main living room has been a popular gathering spot for movie nights with friends. On warmer days and nights, the center of the house shifts to the spacious outdoor deck, table, umbrella, and grill, while on cooler evenings the outdoor firepit is a favorite gathering spot. There are so many spots to enjoy inside and outside the house.

Shelter Island has so much to offer (as do the cute towns and farms of the North Fork as well as the villages of The Hamptons to the South). There's a lot of insight to share with renters who are looking to explore the Island or both the North and South Fork of Long Island.
