House in Shelter Island, NY

About this house rental
At the back of the home, a stunning great room with vaulted ceilings serves as the heart of the space. Framed by views of the creek, it brings together dining and gathering areas in an open, airy setting that’s ideal for long meals, conversation, and relaxed evenings. A cozy reading nook invites you to unwind with a book while the light shifts over the water outside.
The front of the house offers a more traditional layout, with a large living room, sitting room, and a dedicated dining room—perfect for family meals or quieter moments away from the main gathering space. A comfortable den provides flexibility for guests of all ages, whether used as a TV room, reading lounge, home office, or a comfortable hangout for kids.
Four spacious bedrooms and updated bathrooms offer comfort and privacy, blending the home’s historic character with thoughtful modern updates. Each space is designed to feel calm, simple, and restorative. A standalone cottage at the back of the house offers an additional two bedrooms and one bathroom and can be available for an additional fee if needed to accommodate larger groups (see note below).
Out front, a screened porch creates another layer of retreat—an ideal spot for morning coffee, afternoon breezes, or winding down after a day on the water.
Located on a 0.75 acre property, a large lawn surrounds the side and back of the house and overlooks Chase Creek. Explore the creek or harbor by kayak, enjoy stunning sunsets at the end of each day, and warm up the cool summer evenings around a smokeless fire pit.
The home's location offers both seclusion and convenience. Rent bikes next door or bring your own. Whether you’re exploring the island or staying close to home, everything feels effortlessly within reach.
This is a place to slow down and settle in—where the creek, the light, and the surrounding stillness create a setting that feels both timeless and deeply relaxing.
Note: The cottage (2 BR/1 BA) is available at an additional cost of $125 per night. Please inquire at the time you request a booking.
