3 Bedroom Cottage in Coecles Harbor, Shelter Island

Charming secluded vintage cottage surrounded by nature preserve on 1/2 an acre yet centrally located mid-island. Fully furnished and equipped with everything you need, from beach chairs, towels and umbrella down to an immersion blender.
Depending on the day and week, I can often be flexible with check in and check out times. Please feel free to reach out with any questions regarding stays. Shelter Island has passed a no short term rental law which I am happy to answer any questions about.
My home on Shelter Island is my happy place. I spend time here year round, and because of this, it is pretty well stocked from to spices to band aids. It is not like staying in a standard rental that is used only for guests. There are plenty of books, WiFi, but no television.
The house is down a dirt road, and surrounded by nature preserve (and a lot of bamboo.) It is mid island between the North and South ferries, and 2 miles to either Wades or Hay beach. The nearest (deserted) beach/water is Coecles Harbor, half mile away, accessible down the back road.
The house is small but open. On the first floor there is a bedroom with a queen bed, and a porch/sunroom with a single bed set up as a couch. There are two sleeping lofts with skylights upstairs accessible by a hand hewn spiral staircase made from a telephone pole. One has two twin beds, the other a queen bed. The space is a converted attic, so think low slanting ceilings.
I upgrade the house as I go along, there may be small changes in the photos like new lamps, or pillows.
The outdoor space has a deck with a grill, a table that will seat 4-6 and, and a small seating area. There is also a hammock and a rustic outdoor shower.
The kitchen is a bit retro, but pretty well equipped, with a brand new new air fry convection oven, microwave and toaster oven, Keurig coffee maker, blender, mini food processor, immersion blender, pots and pans, etc...I just put down a new floor, and upgraded the cookware and knives.
There is a washer and dryer off of the kitchen.
The house can sleep 5, but because of the size is probably more suitable for 2-4 people.
The bathroom downstairs has a tub and shower, as well as towels and toiletries. There is a very basic half bath upstairs, handy in the middle of the night :)
There are beach chairs, an umbrella, and an assortment of beach towels and basic canvas beach bag on the porch as you enter the house.
Around the corner where Shelter Island Kayak rents their boats, I have one kayak that is available to use anytime. I'm working on getting another one.
Please reach out with any questions!
