Exceptional!

It became a short retreat into beauty and quiet just for myself. This my 2nd time around. Kim and George are exceptional hosts and purveyors of life! They inspire your senses in every way each day you find something new to discover in this exquisitely detailed lovingly assembled abode. It’s remarkable how many crevices draw you in even the children’s play parlor. Lol! Yep was in there as well -true story! There is no comparison. It’s worth every cent! I was so blessed and renewed ! Thank you! Tarsha

Lovely home with nice veiw

I loved the house, the only downside was when we had the opportunity to enjoy our coffee this morning, landscaper started mowing and leaf blowing. We couldn’t hear each other at all. I don’t know why that could not have started at 10:00 at checkout rather than 9:15

Cold Spring Harbor getaway

This is a quaint property located off the main road going through town but you would never know it. It is quiet and tranquil. Property is clean and well maintained. The owner has provided many amenities, my husband appreciated the well stocked coffee"nook." We walked everywhere and it was fun to explore the waterfront. A quick drive to Sagamore Hill and Oyster Bay. We enjoyed our stay. Owner was very responsive to my questions.

House with a view

I rented this home for a multi-family vacation. We all absolutely loved the house. The beautiful view of the habor was amazing to see out the windows, porches, and backyard. The next door neighbors are very friendly. The house is very beautiful inside and comfortable. Bed upstairs was soft, king bed on the main floor is medium firm. The single beds on main floor one is soft one really firm. The playhouse in the backyard was the highlight for my grandson and made his vacation so special. In walking distance is a deil with the best coffee in town . They have bagels delivered daily and other delicious breakfast sandwiches. There are many restaurants, groceries stores and train station in the area. There is also a 24 hrs CVS close by. You can walk down to the boat dock and see mussels during low tide. The fire pit in the backyard was nice to sit around and hangout. The owners are friendly and responsive if you have an issue.

A Delightful Stay at Captain's Cottage!

Our family had an absolutely delightful stay at the Captain's Cottage in Cold Spring Harbor! The moment we walked in, we were impressed by the stylish and charming decor that gave the home a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The entire house was spotlessly clean and very well-maintained, making us feel right at home. The cottage had all the amenities we could possibly need, and we were pleasantly surprised to find some extra touches that made our stay even more comfortable. The location was ideal, with stunning views of the harbor and easy access to nearby attractions. We would definitely recommend the Captain's Cottage to anyone visiting the area and hope to come back ourselves someday!

Passover Family Time

Came into town for Passover in Syosset, this was a great home to stay in for the long weekend. Beautiful location with lots in walking distance so we could enjoy the area. Kitchen amazingly well stocked to be able to help with cooking. As others have mentioned, the stairs to one of the King bedrooms are very steep so at least 2 guests need to be able to essentially go up and down a ladder- our guest mix made this fine. Backyard seating area was beautiful with direct access to Cold Spring Harbor State park. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Great stay in a charming town!

I travelled to work for the week on Long Island with two work colleagues. This house made the trip a treat! Love the kitchen amenities and great beds. The owner was so kind and although it snowed on day, the porch and drive were shoveled before we left for work. One caveat: if you don’t like stairs, this isn’t the place for you. If stairs are fine, I can’t recommend this super clean and absolutely charming house more. Will gladly book again when I visit.

Cold Spring Sanctuary

Our stay was excellent and very welcoming! Like a home away from home. Kim and George are very kind and welcoming and put a lot of effort into our arrival. We arrived in the winter and can just imagine how amazing the other seasons must be. An absolute gem of a place!!! Cant wait to see the Captain again, he's so cool.!!! All the best for Kim, George and family.
