Lovely Stay!
Step away from your busy schedule, step back in time, and step down to the beach. Bayside Cottage is an idyllic, charming, and rare place -- one increasingly harder to find as grandiose properties populate many parts of the Island. Thankfully the North Fork has retained much of its character since we began visiting some 20 years ago, and Orient is beautifully preserved with a lot of tender loving care, especially towards nature. It was turtle season in June! At Bayside, circa 1887, one doesn't need chic and glamor to enjoy the beautiful bay view, sailboats, rose bushes and occasional bunny, just a good book with afternoon tea or a glass of wine on the balcony, to the tune of lapping waves and mockingbirds. The bend where the picket-fenced, gray-shingled house sits could have been drawn from Harper Lee, but furnishings tell another story -- pictures of sailors, rowers, boats, shells, maps, needlepoints, even old tools -- thoughtfully collected over time. The main dock and marina are right next door, and you will observe a few apprentice sailors as lessons are available.This lovely cottage is situated in an historic and peaceful hamlet, complete with a general store, post office, and small cafe. The cottage is delightfully old and comfortable, and perfect for relaxing, enjoying simplicity and family time. Nicely there is no TV, but there are board games and wifi -- and your most gracious, welcoming, and attentive host is but a stone's throw away.Thank you for having us!
