About this property
Spectacular Seaview, Fire Island Beach House
Welcome to Pleasant Dunes! A spacious Fire Island house in the beautiful Seaview Community with traditional charm and all the comforts of home. We are local Long Island owners who bought this beach home for our family to enjoy and share. We will do everything to make your stay wonderful!
Fire Island is a unique vacation spot accessible only by ferry or boat. Bicycles are the predominant mode of transportation. Peak summer season is June-July-August but stays during the spring and fall offer a special peaceful retreat.
The 1st floor includes a bright open living room with large, comfy sectional (perfect gathering place to play board games or watch TV), a large kitchen and dining table with all the necessities, and a master bedroom with full bathroom (ideal for guests with disabilities or mobility issues). Hardwood floors throughout.
2nd floor has 4 bedrooms: 1 queen (with a half bath) 1 double, 1 single, bunk room with 1 single plus bunk beds (1 full, 1 single), and a beautifully newly remodeled bathroom with a tub. There is a cottage on the property that sleeps 2 (2 single beds) with a 1/2 bathroom!
The backyard has large deck surrounded by gardens and privacy. There is a Weber propane grill, a large table that seats 10, shade, and of course, an outdoor shower. There are bikes, beach chairs, beach umbrellas and wagon for your use.
You will enjoy the central AC during hot summer months, Dish Network and WiFi services. Beach towels and linens are provided and the new washer and dryer are conveniently located in the kitchen.
The home is short walk (about 200 feet) to the ocean with community provided lifeguards.
The Seaview Market is well-stocked and conveniently located next to the ferry dock, just down the block.
Seaview also has a private Marina if you would like to bring your personal boat, with transient slips available. Reservations are recommended. A 10 minute walk to the West brings you to the town of Ocean Beach with many restaurants and shops.
The Seaview community values a respectful family oriented atmosphere.
Quit hours are from 10 pm to 8 am. Parties and group rentals are not allowed at any time.

About the host
Hosted by Karen Kuitwaard
The purchase of this house was a family venture. My sister, JoAnn along with our husbands, Rob and John purchased this home so that our families can enjoy the beautiful beach on Fire Island. We each have 3 grown children and while we love to spend time here in the spring and fall, the summer is the most glorious. We also find enjoyment in sharing our home with friends we have not yet met. We named the house Pleasant Dunes based on a Catskill NY resort we enjoyed as kids called Pleasant Acres.
Why they chose this property
There is no mistaking the charm of Pleasant Dunes! Fire Island is a unique group of communities. You will find modern mansions and little bungaloos, scattered along the the thin strip of land called Fire Island, this home is special. From the moment you enter the front door, the rich green wood floors and open floor plan greet you like an old friend.
What makes this property unique
Pleasant Dunes is perfectly situated so close to the ocean, the sound of the waves will lull you to sleep, but the Seaview Market down the block towards the bay is a nicely stocked grocery for all your provisions! Long beach walks, long bike rides, and stargazing are enjoyed by everyone. Water taxis make it easy to visit all the other communities on Fire Island such as the National Seashore at Watch Hill, Davis Park, Sailor's Haven, Atlantique, Kismet and more.
