Surprise diamond in the rough. Very rough! Old fisherman’s village in the middle of a ramshackle collection of houses along some very unique canals. Wing did an amazing renovation, with all kinds of brilliant touches. Our kids loved the attic bedroom and we all treasured our time on the porch overlooking the canal. 30 minutes to Jones Beach made it the perfect way station between the city and the Island. The locals are hospitable, but be forewarned it is an insular community to say the least. That said the house was a charming short-stay oasis, with wildlife and ocean breezes our constant companions. We are very grateful to Wing for her gracious hospitality.
