Mike’s house is great and as advertised. 9 people can sleep comfortably in beds at this house. The house was clean. The location was great, beach was like a 10-15 minute walk, the train to the city was less than a 10 minute walk, and there are groceries and bars near by. A couple of things to keep in mind for larger groups. There is only one full bathroom. There is an outdoor shower to make up for that and when the weather is nice it is fantastic. Also for larger groups the only space big enough for a big meal is outdoors, that was great for us because the patio is great but just something to keep in mind. One note about Rockaway is it’s by water which means in the summer bring mosquito repellant. We would totally stay here again, the beach was a great time.
