Looks just like the pictures, great view and neighborhood. Inside some of the kitchen cabinets were dusty and dirty. The refrigerator had old food inside and was not cleaned. The property manager was always available to address any concern. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Good but a few issues

Great location, super views. Very clean. Only issues was light bulb out in upstairs bathroom. A/C not working in basement bedroom. Sofa bed had sharp springs exposed on side. Called property manager who thought she fixed the A/C but still did not work. Didn't feel the house was checked before checking in to make sure everything was working properly.

Shortchanged on basic amenities

The place was not very clean - food smudges and crumbs in fridge and cabinets. Bath mats were not clean. Tattered, old hand towels that should be rags. Lots of empty cheap shampoo and conditioner bottles. Upstairs bath fan was broken and loud. A very large, open bag of dog food in kitchen cabinet was attracting ants. Cheap linens. No dish soap or coffee to speak of. On the positive side - amazing location and view. Good Wi-Fi. Comfy furniture and beds.

Fantastic Thanksgiving get-together

This Rocky Point rental was perfect for my family's Thanksgiving weekend- roomy house with beautiful views of the LI Sound and a quaint, wooded neighborhood. The main floor was open and spacious and has a bedroom and bathroom, our two kids loved the lower level with it's own tv area and (king)bedroom and the upstairs has a fun game area as well as a king bed and bathroom. The decks overlooking the LI Sound are a perfect spot for your morning coffee. Thanks to the owner for her quick responses. Wonderful memories were made!

Beautiful property. Perfect for 3 families

Shared this spacious hideaway with my siblings’ families for our sister’s wedding not far away. The place was perfect with a beautiful ocean view, close access to private beaches, and even a family of deer that frequently pranced through or laid in the lawn! The inside is beautiful as well and we were really impressed with the quietness within the home. Couldn’t hear a peep from anyone else the whole time. Would definitely stay again. Thanks!

Fabulous Home ... for 6.

The property and the home are beautiful and the view is spectacular. In general, we had an excellent stay that was more cost effective than four hotel rooms and significantly nicer. My only minor complaint is the condition of the pullout couch. We had three different adults take turns on this "bed" and all said it was AWFUL! Being marketed as a home that sleeps 8, this should definitely be replaced/upgraded. Otherwise, I would recommend this home and/or rent it again.

Perfect Family Vacation Retreat

Our family had a wonderful visit at this Rocky Point home. There is plenty of room for the whole family as we were in town for a family celebration. Stairs to the upstairs and basement are steep and I would recommend elderly visitors to stay in the ground-level queen room. Upstair and basement bedrooms have comfortable king beds with a bathroom on the main level and upstairs loft/bedroom. This home is bright and airy with beautiful outside porches. It is a perfect location in Rocky Point close to the beach and town. We're looking to return in the future. Lara the host is amazing and answered questions immediately.
