Rockaway is quiet in the winter, and this was the perfect place to hole up and watch the stormy waves from the master bedroom. The house is cozy and snug, immaculately well designed, with thoughtful touches everywhere. I felt immediately at home. No laundry in the house, but affordable drop service (as well as grocery, drug store, bakery, coffeeshop, and subway station) within a few blocks. Communication was great about the few things that arose during my month-long stay. Would highly recommend and hope to stay again!
