Waterfront House With Dock And Private Beach

Vacation house rental w/stunning views, private dock and beach.

Located minutes from South Ferry on pristine Smith's Cove, bordering Mashomack Preserve and overlooking Peconic bay, this spacious home with 3 bedrooms and 2½ baths comfortably sleeps 6. The house is set back from the quiet road, discretely nestled on a wooded half acre lot that sweeps down to a private dock. A minute stroll brings you to the private association beach while complimentary kayaks and bicycles can take you further afield. The house basks in wonderful light thanks to its Southern exposure, enjoyed best from the wraparound deck or garden hammock. The recently renovated interior features pickled oak floors, top of the line bathroom fixtures, new furniture, flat screen TV, wi-fi, fireplace, central heating and AC. If you're looking for somewhere to recharge, relax and rejuvenate then look no further. We could go on and on but the photos speak for themselves.

Peaceful Hidden Gem

Perfect location for a peaceful stay on my favorite Island in NY. Beautiful views from the house and deck. Dock was perfect for our small motor boat. Kitchen could use some updates but the bathrooms were recently updated and in great condition. House was clean with a great layout. My family had a wonderful stay!

We had a really lovely stay at this house on Shelter Island. Our hosts made the whole process very easy. They were extremely accommodating and communicative. They answered questions prior to the reservation and addressed everything I asked. They also provided wonderful ideas about what to do on the island. Check in was very easy and the house was perfectly clean and ready for us. The location is great. The view from the house is magnificent. The house is in a private association with its own beach. While we were there, on a great summer weekend, we only saw a few other people on the beach. The property was very nice and we made use of the deck, grill, yard, fire pit and the dock. I highly recommend it. Also, we had a magical dinner/evening at the Rams Head Inn. It's wonderful!!!

Shelter Island Idyll

Our family vacation at this property was delightful. The house had everything needed and more, and the owners were very responsive. The instructions were brief and simple to follow, and all of the appliances worked well. The private beach was a two-minute walk away, and most days we had it completely to ourselves. If you walk—or kayak—down the beach to the estuary, there are shorebirds to watch. For travelers who prefer a clean aesthetic—my husband has turned a lot of hotel art around to face the wall—the house is ideal: excellent taste, lots of white, simple lines, no doo-dads. We were there for relaxation, and the location was perfect for that. My favorite was the view from the deck of the cove, with its boats bobbing in their slips, and the open water beyond.

Amazing shelter island home!

Beautiful, clean, and fun home in Shelter Island! We loved eating, hanging out, and playing card games on the wrap around porch. We loved kayaking and stand up paddle boarding right off the dock at the house. House was very clean, exactly as shown in the listing, and came well stocked with beach chairs, a tandem kayak, stand up paddle board, hammock, and plenty of seating areas. Wifi worked really well for when a few of us had to take work calls on the trip. We’ll definitely be back!

Perfect

The house is right on the water, with beautiful views from the living room, the master bedroom, and even the kitchen. It's at the edge of the Mashomack Preserve, so within a few yards' walk you reach a long stretch of beach, perfect for walking and rock collecting. The house itself is very comfortable, and there's a fire pit in the yard to sit by in the evening. We wish we could have stayed for weeks!

October wedding weekend

great house in a perfect location as the wedding was around the corner on Merkel. beautiful views and plenty of supplies. The freezer was dripping when we got to the house but the owners returned my call very quickly and had an alternative in the basement. By the time we realized the fridge wasn't working either, it was too late and we ended up just using our coolers. We would highly recommend this home !!

Great trip to Shelter Island

The house is very nice – it has all the basics and plenty of room to spread out. The bathrooms are new and luxurious. The location is beautiful. It’s quiet, breezy and the water views are lovely. We loved heading down to the dock and taking a spin in the kayak. We also spent some time on the beach – it is rocky but peaceful and beautiful. We started each day with breakfast on the deck (they have every coffee appliance you could want) and finished by making s’mores in the firepit. Perfect! We hope to go back very soon!

This is a perfect vacation home, we had 4 adults, 2 (very small) kids and a baby- there’s so much space, 3 different eating areas, right on the water, it’s fantastic. Will definitely be returning!
