About this property

The Perfect Setting for a Magical Stay

Private yet just minutes from Mattituck’s Love Lane, beaches, wineries, farms, restaurants, shops and the North Fork’s many attractions, this unique getaway has it all.
Three bedrooms, two with queen size beds and one with a queen size sleeper sofa, two full bathrooms—one with a bathtub and a separate shower, a fully equipped kitchen with large dining table, a separate pantry area with brand new washer and dryer, an oversized home office with WIFI, printer and two individual work stations, a wood burning stove and two large flat panel TVs. There is two-zone central air conditioning throughout. A 600 sq. ft. deck with a Weber gas grill, lounge chairs and patio furniture affords plenty of outdoor seating for lounging, dining and entertaining.

The master bedroom opens to a balcony with a bistro table and chairs. Both the master bedroom and the home office have soaring 16’ foot ceilings that make being in the space feel almost magical. Picture yourself sitting high on the balcony or on the first floor deck overlooking Long Creek reading a book or watching a never-ending show of ducks, geese, kingfishers, egrets, herons, swans and ospreys. Nature abounds!

Or you can float along on the creek in our two-person kayak, or for a change of scenery, ride one of the bicycles into town, to the beach or along country roads. When you return, a refreshing outdoor shower with dressing area will welcome you back.

Conveniently located five minutes from the LIRR and Hampton Jitney stops.

Minimum stay: Three weeks

Perfect Home for Rest and Relaxing

This is a beautiful property on wetlands on the NoFo. It was very quiet, private, and lots of wildlife to keep your attention for hours. Kitchen was great for creating and sharing meals together. The master bedroom was beautiful and tranquil. Albert and Carol were the most generous of hosts, excellent comminication that made for a very smooth process. Highly recommend this location and home.

Peaceful and relaxing getaway

We stayed at this property for two weeks in July 2021. The house is an excellent location near town and beaches, is well designed, and is extremely clean. But what really sets it apart is the amazing view of Long Creek and the surrounding area, which makes the setting feel like a nature preserve. The other outstanding feature is the homeowners, who are kind, responsive, and pay attention to details that enhance the experience. We highly recommend the property without reservation.

Great House, Terrific Family Vacation

We loved spending two weeks at this comfortable, clean and modern house. You wake up to the sounds of ospreys and ducks and sometimes wild turkeys--nature all around. Lovely deck to enjoy the animal show or to sit and read a book. It's very close to Love Lane for food or supplies (an easy bike ride) and fish and farm stands are easy to get to. If stairs are an issue be aware that there is a staircase to the master bedroom and a guest room. Couldn't have been happier with our hosts, their home, or our great vacation. Thanks Albert!

About the host

Hosted by Albert Leutwyler

Host profile image
Year-round owner occupant, fine art photographer.
As a former Manhattan resident I sought a serene and private second home, close to nature yet convenient to town, found this tear down hunters lodge, totally gut renovated it and am now enjoying the breathtaking views and its convenience to North Fork's many attractions.

Why they chose this property

While it's only two hours from the hustle and bustle of New York City, it feels like a million miles away. As one of the non-VRBO guests wrote: "Better than advertised. Beautiful location, full of wildlife, we would recommend it to anyone looking for a stylish hideaway."
