House is perfect for a small beach house, couldn’t ask for a better location. Property manager was extremely kind, helpful, and responsive

From start to finish, our stay here was perfect! Ginger is an amazing host: timely and thoughtful communication from the moment I inquired about her property through check-out. She was so accommodating: letting us park at the house early on our arrival day and her check-out day policy makes for a stress-free departure. The house is SO adorable, charmingly decorated and so well equipped: you seriously want for nothing. Beach chairs, a beach cart, towels, bedding, paper supplies, stocked kitchen. The list goes on and on. It made our stay so comfortable and we truly felt like it was our home away from home. The backyard is huge and private: we brought our solo stove fire pit and enjoyed many evenings watching the moon rise and counting satellites. The lack of light pollution makes for wonderful star gazing. We had many meals outside on the picnic table in the sunshine! We kept our bikes and surfboards in the backyard for convenience too. The cottage is in the perfect location: a 1 minute bike ride to Ditch Plains beach (to the surfers middle parking lot, the first lot is even closer!) made it so easy to check the surf and then ride our boards down to paddle out. The outside rinsing station was great for rinsing wetsuits and feet and the clothesline was perfect for hanging up our wet gear in the sun to dry. We rode our bikes over to the Shadmoor trails (a very short bike ride away) and you can also access that trail from the first Ditch Plains parking lot which is a 2 minute walk from the house! We rode our bikes all over, really: it was an easy ride over to sunset beach on my beach cruiser. The ride out to the lighthouse was challenging but worth it. We took beach walks along the hoodoo cliffs almost every day. The sunset from there is gorgeous! We saw SO MANY whales and seals from the beach and the bluffs (and the lineup)! On cooler evenings we hunkered down in the living room on the comfy sectional couch. And I set up my travel office in the dining room while my husband used the nook in-between bedrooms. Phone reception is strangely wanting in Montauk, but the house Wifi was great! We had absolutely everything we needed in the kitchen to make wonderful meals at home, when we had had our fill of local lobster and wanted to stay in. We were SO sad to leave and can't wait to come back! Thank you for everything Ginger! Till next time!

Ginger’s place is cozy and a very short walk from the beach. She’s a superb host (who seems to truly have thought of everything), and my wife and I had a wonderful time staying!

This was our second time staying at this house. It is the perfect little beach house. The location could not be better and the house is bigger than it looks in the pictures, not to mention the huge backyard. The host Ginger is awesome and super responsive. We’ll be back!

The home was even better than I expected. It is a fun, quirky beach house with lots of charm and character. It was fully stocked with everything we could ever need for great times at the beach. Ginger was communicative and there for us when we needed her, but otherwise let us enjoy our time freely. We can't wait to rent again.

We had a wonderful 3 week vacation at Ginger's cottage. The cottage was very clean and comfortable and well stocked, including everything you need for the beach. The cottage has a great location just a 3 minute walk to the beautiful ocean beach and 5 minutes by car to town. Montauk is a great town with shops and plenty to do. Ginger was always available for questions. We would love to come again. Peg and Janie

Our extended weekend at 45 Ditch Plains was perfect - cozy 2 br 2 bath with all of the amenities for a nice weekend getaway. It was everything we expected; it's always good not to have surprises. Ginger made it perfectly comfortable for us - easy instructions for the property, open communication, and stocked with all of the comforts that you'd like to have on your stay. She made it feel just like home, and I cannot think of one thing that was missing on our stay. We were new to Montauk and she was available to answer any questions we had. She stocked the kitchen with coffee, water and a few snacks so we did not have to go into town our very first night (because it's about a 30 min walk, 1.5 miles). There is a spacious newly remodeled kitchen in case you'd like to cook, and washer and dryer in case you want to wash up. The house is definitely great for a group of people and was a little big for the 2 of us, but we liked the extra space. The house had everything you need for a beach visit, and I cannot stress how important this was for us. The beach is really a 3 minute walk and is beautiful (and safe) to walk day and night. Knowing that there were chairs, a beach bag, sunscreen and mosquito spray was a major plus (thank you so much Ginger). She was very flexible and accommodating and I will be considering her place for the next time I visit Montauk. Great visit, great host, pleasant beach cottage!
