Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Experience the beach getaway of a lifetime with your nearest and dearest at this condo in the heart of Fire Island's Ocean Bay Park! This kid-friendly retreat is accessible only by ferry and features two levels full of comfort and convenient amenities. You can reach the ferry terminal in Bay Shore after a 15-minute drive from Long Island MacArthur Airport, meaning you'll be enjoying your sandy paradise in no time. Paid parking is available at 99 Maple Ave. on the right for those arriving at the ferry terminal by car. Walk to the beach each morning, come home to grill and relax on the deck, and take leisurely rides around town on one of the provided bikes. The well-equipped kitchen will also make cooking a breeze; make sure to buy some groceries and goodies at the nearby Ocean Bay Park Market and surprise your guests with savory, full-course meals or quick beach snacks. Once mealtime is over, unwind on the deck that comes equipped with all-new beach chairs and umbrellas, or head back inside to snuggle up on the sofa and watch a fun movie on the smart TV with a refreshing beverage in hand. This retreat also boasts a convenient washer/dryer combo that will allow you to pack light and make space for souvenirs. The king bed features a brand-new memory foam mattress, ensuring a blissful night's rest.
This home is only 1.5 blocks from the beach and the Atlantic Ocean, as well as mere steps from Fire Island SUP Co. - a one-stop shop for watersports lessons and parasailing, paddleboard, and tubing rentals. Seaview is a short five-minute walk away, while Ocean Beach is only a mile from you, giving you even more options while out and about. Spend hot summer days at Sunken Forest a 23-minute walk away, where you can enjoy some shade and take a ranger-led walk through the trees and dunes. After a gorgeous day on the sand, take your pick from the dozens of local restaurants to sate your appetite. Steps away in the neighborhood is Schooner's Inn, a restaurant and bar near the ferry while Flynn's Fire Island is a two-minute walk from you. Dino's on the Bay deli and Island Pantry are a bit further, but well worth the five-minute walk. Island Mermaid and Hideaway are also great dining options one mile away in Ocean Beach. Traveling five miles will take you to the Fire Island Lighthouse, where you can learn about the history of Fire Island and take a tour of the tower.
The other two apartments on the property, Unit 1 and Unit 2, are available to rent as well; all three apartments can be rented together as The Surfcomber Multi-Residence Home.

This property is steps away from the ferry, steps away from the beach and steps away from food, drinks and music. We had a great time. Cassie greeted us and made sure we had everything we needed!!!! She also went out of her way to make my daughters 21st birthday special. Highly recommend this property.

8.0 / 10.0
This apartment worked perfect for our family of 6. We had a few snags when we checked in with the storm door but Cassie came and took care of it right away. What we did not realize is that this place is 2 floors and the bedrooms are upstairs and the bathroom is downstairs. So using the restroom in the middle of the night was tricky but we got through it. Also you no longer have access to the washer and dryer. It’s locked up for only housekeeping to use. It was in a perfect location. Had bikes for all the kids and a wagon! Such a great trip cannot wait to go back◡̈
6.0 / 10.0
This house is great and in a great location, but our stay was not relaxing. Two primary issues:
- The back patio is NOT private. We spent a good amount of time outside using the deck, outdoor shower, etc. and nowhere in the description do they tell you that cleaning staff will be in and out for hours unannounced using the laundry machines for laundry for the other units. Was very intrusive.
- We did not have any wifi access and it took 2 days of communicating with multiple people who did not know anything about the property or where the router, etc. were to finally get the owner out only to tell us it wouldn't be fixed.
Would not recommend staying here with the current management.

A relaxing fall staycation
This Vacasa home was amazing! The size is perfect for families or groups of friends, and the all white interior really gives that classic Fire Island feel. My family had a relaxing 2 night stay. Highly recommend renting the bikes and driving around Ocean Pay Park, Seaview and Ocean Beach.

Beach Vacation
Property location is great, rented the 1st Unit last year, and Unit 3 this year in 2021. Cleanliness could be better, but over all a great stay. Meave was the property manager, she was very responsive. Definitely one of the nice rentals on the island. The beach chairs for guests and outdoor deck area was a huge plus for us.

Exploding shelf
I have stayed here before and enjoyed the overall experience. The glass shelf in the bathroom “exploded” but there was nobody even in there. There was glass all over but we cleaned it up. The outside umbrella should be replaced but the outside shower was awesome. Switching the check in time for the check out time, for deep cleaning, is a crock! We basically lost a whole day in the house. We actually paid extra for the additional day that should have been part of our weeks stay.

Great location
We loved the location of this home. It was clean. Smaller then the pictures show. The bathroom is very small and for a home that sleeps 9 it would be almost impossible to share that one bathroom. The bathroom needs a new shower curtain for sure. The outdoor shower was pretty gross. A little bleach would go a long way. The outdoor cushions were moldy. The rest of the house was clean. The air conditioner in the master bathroom leaked causing the bed to be soaked to the mattress. The person I dealt with with the rental company was very helpful. Very nice they supply you with beach chairs, umbrellas, and beach towels. Great location. Super close to the ferry, ocean and restaurants.

Doing laundry on my 2 day vacation
The house is located in an great location everything you could want bike rentals, a store, restaurant bars on the water, an awesome beach and only a mile from the activity of Ocean Beach.
However, the house itself had some terrible issues, it was filthy in places, sheets dirty stained, kitchen coffee grounds left in pot , dirty cleaning paper towels left out on counter. Mold on the bathroom wall by the shower etc But mostly it was the service. Before arriving I had made a small request to have an extra sheet and was denied. In fact I was told to just go and do the laundry if I needed more. As it turned out there were no clean sheets so that is what we had to do. Buy detergent! as there was none and spend precious time washing.
For that reason I can definitely not recommend.

No working toilet or shower
Checked in on a Saturday, no working toilet or shower which we noticed upon arrival! Tried to contact management company considering it’s illegal to rent a property without a working bathroom. They didn’t return our phone calls until Sunday afternoon, and didn’t send a plumber until MONDAY!! No working bathroom for 2 full days and a family of 5! Not to mention management company was awful at responding, didn’t even want to reimburse us for any inconvenience.. 10/10 Would not recommend

Fire Island First Timers
Desperately needing a beach vacation and wanting to stay in our home state of NY, we decided to check out Fire island on the recommendation of my sons friends who live on Long Island. We were more than happy to find that our long weekend away exceeded any expectations that we had. It’s a stunningly beautiful location and everyone we met was more than friendly and informative. Our rental was exactly as advertised. Cute and comfortable for all! The bathroom was “eh”, super small and could use a little updating but it was functional. We would visit again!

Great location, nice home, no bikes
House was cute and well equipped including boogie boards for beach. Has a blender, toaster, vacuum, and wine opener. They should not advertise bikes since only 1 works. There were only 4 for all 3 units and 3 were not operational (rusted, broken seats and broken chain). I had to rent bikes and then someone from the other unit took them and used them because they thought they were the bikes advertised for use (i thought our bikes were stolen because they were gone).

Great apt
Close to the beach. Short ride to ocean beach and Seaview market. Could use some more bikes since they are shared with the 2 other units. Would recommend

Great spot
Love the kitchen. Other People in the units on the property do share the washing machines, so the deck is technically semi private.

Great spot
A vacasa rep did let themselves into the unit the first evening to say hello, which.... i feel is inappropriate. But overall a cute spot at an excellent location.
