watch the virtual tour at https://youtube.com/watch?v=NRmf4pDyr0Q
Fire Island is a magical island off the southern coast of Long Island New York and Ocean Beach is it's Capital City! It can be reached by ferries with bold names like Explorer, Voyager and Fire Island Flyer crossing the Great South Bay from Bay Shore, NY. (Fire Island Ferries - 99 Maple Avenue, Bay Shore, NY 11706)
Ocean Beach is a sophisticated town and besides the most beautiful ocean beaches in the world it is home to at least 10 fine restaurants and night clubs featuring highly talented chefs and entertainment. You will not see any cars because they are forbidden on the island. Strolling, biking and (when there's much to carry home) red wagons are the means of transportation. It is suggested that you bring a reasonably packed wagon to the passenger ferry OR (highly recommended) boxed/bagged necessities to the freight ferry at the end of Maple Ave before 9 am. Freight will arrive in OB about 1230PM. There will be a small charge for either method. If you have a great deal to carry, there is hand truck and/or wagon available.
The accommodations are a typical Ocean Beach Fire Island beach house. Clean, comfortable and safe. Sleeps 7 , steps from beautiful ocean beaches, 12 RESTAURANTS, a multitude of SHOPS, beautiful SUNSET VIEWS, excellent night life, a great ferry schedule and all the Capital City of Fire Island has to offer. 40 minutes from JFK and LGA international Airports, or Penn Station (LIRR -Bay Shore Station 0.5 miles).

We have a great time at peters place, it completely fit our family of 7 comfortably.
The location is super convenient peter was really nice and accommodating def recommend!
What a great place! Second time
staying here and it was as awesome as last year! The location is perfect! Peter is the most excellent host! Can’t wait to come back!
Clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything a traveling, young family needs for a great beach vacation. Peter was great host, friendly, quiet and always close by if we needed anything. Property has enough space for a family of 5 to spread out , each had privacy when needed. Decorated tastefully, nice deck, grill, outdoor shower and convenient laundry. Cold AC, updated kitchen, plenty of hot water for multiple showers. Can’t wait to comeback again. Thanks Blue Parrot for making our vacation 🍀🍀🍀🍀
Thank you so much! We had such a magical few days of laughter, joy, family fun! We were so comfortable, felt safe. So much provided that was so convenient and appreciated for a wonderful escape. Towels, games, warm cozy bedding, beach chairs. So many great kitchen essentials provided. Our youngest learned how to ride a bike on bikes we were able to use.
You couldn’t ask for a better location.
All was perfect!
Peter was an excellent host. We arrived early to enjoy the beach and since the cleaning was done he allowed us to put our bags in house.The house is conveniently located near ferry, restaurants and shops. This was great for families with teenagers. My husband and I were able to go out locally and allowed children to walk around town. The pantry was right nExt door so it was super convenient if you do not feel like lugging tones of food and drinks on ferry . This was a short trip so we were happy it was conveniently located to everything.
The location is superb, can’t do much better! Towards the end of the main strip for privacy but still right near the action that you come to Ocean Beach for. The rental was clean and stocked with essentials upon our arrival (definitely a life-saver) with the onsite washer/dryer a bonus!As for the property owner, I’m happy to report that this one is a pleasure… congenial, accommodating and professional from the start of the reservation process and onward.We are looking forward to returning next year, thank you again, Peter!
This house was so perfect for our little group! Peter was the best host, took time to answer all of my questions. The house is in the perfect spot too! My best takeaway (aside from the location) were the amount of towels and the hot water! Would definitely stay here again! And 100% recommend this place
We loved staying at this property in Ocean Beach. So close to town and easily accessible. Bay is around the corner and the Ocean just a short walk from the house. Youth center conveniently located five seconds away so great location for families and others alike! Peter was very nice and helpful. Laundry available and a large deck. Great stay!
Checking it was an easy process. It’s a cute little cottage very family friendly. Peter was a great host. With it being my birthday vacation, I had many unexpected visitors, and he was very open to us enjoying ourselves and having a good time. Everything we needed was there, was just perfect for what we needed.

Almost perfect!
This little beach house had a great location for dining and shopping. Just a short, enchanting walk to the beach. It was great for 4 of us. Ocean Beach is alittle much for me, personally. Perhaps we will return on off season for a little more peace and quiet. Thanx for everything. Pleasure to meet you, Mr.Tartaglia!

Summer family fun
Great location on the island. Close to the ferry and private boat docking.
Within in a very short walking distance to all the stores and restaurants.
Owner very helpful and friendly. House it self has been upgraded since the storm and very nice for family's with small kids. Deck is nice and includes a BBQ and outdoor shower.
Overall great location. Common space in the house is decorated well and all the rooms have ac. Thanks for a great week with family. Look forward to hopefully returning.

great location, away from the crowds but close to all
This was our second time vacationing at this house and love it! The homeowners are quick to answer any question and are very easy going. It's a typical beach house with a great location and private deck in back yard. Three rooms have different sleepin accommodations which helps in the planning of where everyone will sleep. Clean house with every thing you need in preparing a great BBQ or meal (just bring your food). Never used the inside shower since they have a great outdoor shower. Would definitely stay there again!!
The location doesn’t get more convenient to the small town and ferry (really I don’t think there’s a closer house). 7 minute walk to the beach. The owner was very accommodating and communicative. The place is small and has everything you need but is very basic, and is meant as a pure beach bungalow - no frills, and won’t be the cleanest place you’ve stayed. But the important parts were great (clean sheets). As someone else mentioned, the outside shower is where it’s at!

Sadly very u happy will not return
Sadly, the listing did not accurately disclose that the owner lives on the property, separated only by an interior door in the living room—with no lock on our side, raising major safety and privacy concerns. Also sharing the outdoor common area. (Which was not disclosed in the description until we were about to check in the evening before) While we were trying to enjoy the outside the man was sitting there the entire day. It was extremely uncomfortable. I was also unfairly and repeatedly questioned on the first day about the ages of my daughters, who are 23, even though the house rules only mention supervision for guests under 18. I was there everyday and left minimally to go to work. The tone and approach from the owner were condescending and created an uncomfortable, stressful environment that significantly impacted our stay. Kitchen is infested with ants.I would not recommend.

Excellent location - Needs major updating
The only positive thing about this property is the location. Located right outside the town and was easy access to the ferry, shops, and restaurants.
This property needs fixing and a lot of updating. When you walk up to the location the fencing is broken and the property looks dated. When you walk into the front door you are greeted by the smell of smoke.
The owner lives on property and is always in the vicinity (usually with guests on the shared back deck, which made us feel very uncomfortable). The rugs are worn and appliances are old. The outdoor shower is a better option then the indoor shower.
I was told that the property was cleaned by "staff" in between the stays which is not the case. The property owner relies on the house guests to clean the property upon leaving. I had to thoroughly clean when I arrived due to crumbs on the table, dirty toilet seat and bathroom, old food and condiments in the fridge/freezer with filthy shelves. When I located the vaccuum to use it looked like it was never cleaned out.
There were also ants in the kitchen and bathroom.
The property owner came in to inspect after I wrote a message complaining about the condition, but easily looked to point blame on us and was not even apologetic. He claimed to look through the house before I rented. Which he may have, but then must have very minimal standards. He attempted to divert attention from the problem by pointing out that I had my daughter and her friends as guests and labeled it as a "house party." Which it definitely was not. This was definitely not a professionally cleaned house, nor was the property owner professional in his dealing with complaints (he was heard cursing). This house will never be recommended to others.
I stayed here for 3 nights with my husband and 3 year old. Overall: we would stay here again.
Pros:
- you can't beat the location, with a grocery store literally right next door and Maguires on the other side. One minute walk from ferry.
-Nice, large outdoor area with grill/ cooler
-house had everything you need (mini shampoo/ soap etc. In bathroom, towels, bedding, kitchen stuff, even beach toys)
-very easy check in/out
Cons:
- The place is not the cleanest. We had to wear our socks inside and they were black by the end of the day.
- Landlord stays on the property as well (as mentioned in the ad) and smokes, so be careful if you have asthma etc.
