The Neighborhood:

Add in the ocean to the south and it’s easy to see why this place is a boon for artists, writers, and other creative souls.

I stayed here with family recently and loved the house. The location was private and convenient. The management company was available to answer our questions. It was perfect for an off season get away.
2 couples stayed and had a great visit! Drove to Montauk lighthouse. Visited Gurney’s and the Inlet restaurant. Walked from the cottage to a chowder restaurant. The house was clean and neat. It was an excellent property and would TOTALLY rent it again.
Location: 5/5. Walkable into town & 10 min drive to the beach
House: 3/5. The house itself is older and not very well maintained (the AC didn’t work upon arrival), the yard has tons of weeds, and the bedding was not very comfortable. But the pool is super nice, the yard is very large, and the grill worked well.
Service: 5/5. We had plenty of complaints (AC didn’t work, not enough towels, door code didn’t work) but Rove/Ivan were super responsive and helped us get everything we needed
The property was nice and overall was clean. Perfect location & no true issues other than a few personal preferences that may not bother others. There was a lack of hand towels, a few bugs which is to be expected and we didn't love the beds. Most of the group likes firmer beds & the bed were very soft. The sprinkler system does go off in the middle of the day by the pool which was a bit inconvenient, but we didn't ask how to turn them off so mostly on us. Since the pool is surrounded by grass & trees vs more of a permitter there are quite a few bugs in the pool. Otherwise, we had a great stay!
Very cute property, great location right in between East Hampton and Amagansett. Back yard was great. The management company was very helpful when I contacted them with questions but there could have been more instructions for how to use things at the house. Otherwise, great stay!

It was lovely and clean and tucked away right in the middle of town. Very sweet.
This property is in a great location, walking distance to the beach, shops and restaurants. The house is cute and had lots of space for four of us. Kitchen is well equipped. The pool and yard look nice too, although it was too cold to swim when we were there. Neighborhood was quiet, no noise from neighbors. We enjoyed our stay and would return.
Great location near to the beach and the centre of the village. We were able to access other parts of the Hamptons very easily. The pool and outside decking areas were relaxing and well maintained. Whilst the property is a cottage there was plenty of space for us (family of four) for our stay. Kitchen amenities were also well maintained. Malin and Goetz products were appreciated. Plenty of space to park and unload on the private driveway. The only negatives were accessing the driveway through the gate for the first time was not easy as the code appeared to be wrong and the curtains in the bedrooms are far too thin and do not properly block out the summer sun at sunrise in the morning (some may like that of course!).
This little cottage is the perfect getaway! It is set back hidden from the road and in the perfect location, one mile from the beach and one mile from town. The yard is gorgeously landscaped with a beautiful pool. The home is immaculately clean and well stocked with everything you need. Jojo and team were a pleasure to work with- extremely responsive and addressed all of our needs. Rove travel, this will not be our last stay with you. Thank you for a vacation our family will never forget!
The property is in an ideal location, literally next door to Bostwick’s. The stay was for the thee of us: dad, 12 year old boy, and a 9 year old girl. The property is beautiful. The pool is great. Very clean,. There was a water filled Nespresso machine ready to use, with lots of extra nespresso pods of varying flavors in the cabinet. The light switches were thoughtfully labeled. The entire house had all the extra touchings of a hotel room. Everything worked. They are clearly thoughtful and aim for a top notch experience.
The management company, Rove deserves major kudos. I accidentally left some articles that were important to me, after check out. They hopped into action and called me within the hour. Then they contacted me several more times to ensure that I received the FedEx with my belongings. It was above and beyond.
Going forward, I will stay in a Rove property, anytime.
I would give them six stars out of five!
