The house isextraordinary: classic, elegant, yet friendly and informal, sitting slightly apart on a slight ridge overlooking the gorgeous, wild, coral-reef strewn eastern shore of Long island. The house is well equipped and the support is extraordinarryy, both from the owner and from the whole wonderful, close-knit Long Island community, for whom attentive and hospitable service still seems to be a pleasure, not a facade. Do mark well, however: YOU WILL NEED A CAR. The house is about five miles from the nearest town, and the town itself is another five miles from the nearest grocery store. The owner is helpful making connections, but you should factor this into your budget.
