Long Island Autumn Retreat

This was our third year staying with Jana and Eric. Being from Arizona we don’t feel the fall weather in October. The suite is beautiful and functional for our month long stay. Jana and Eric always go above and beyond on fall decorating. Very nice touch and much appreciated. The neighborhood is safe and the property is centered on Long Island in Smithtown. The back yard is beautifully maintained with a nice private patio. What we appreciate most is Jana and Eric’s attention to detail and asking how our stay is going. Highly recommend this Long Island property.

Great location and nice accommodations

The location of the property is great with dedicated off street parking in a very safe neighborhood. The property has its own private entrance with plenty of space for a single person or couple. The landlords are on site and can respond to any issues or questions. I didn’t have any problems but they did shovel snow off the path for me. They were nice and friendly. I would definitely stay here again if I needed accommodations in the area.

Our stay here was wonderful! The apartment itself is clean, spacious and well appointed. Our hosts, Eric and Jana, were gracious and very attentive. They greeted us upon our arrival and ensured all was to our liking throughout our stay. My husband and I were also very impressed when Jana reached out to us to see if we had returned home safely...we will definitely be staying at this property again. Thank you for everything Eric and Jana!

Comfortable and cozy on Long Island!

Jana and Eric were the perfect hosts. They greeted us warmly upon our arrival and showed us around this cozy apartment. The location of this unit was perfect for our needs. The area is wooded and very quiet, but also convenient to shopping, restaurants and major roadways. The unit is very well appointed with a full kitchen, large TV, and very comfortable queen size bed. We look forward to staying here again in the very near future.

Nice place but too close to the owner’s Living space

The apartment was nice but their was a problem with the air conditioning so it felt to warm inside a lot of the time. Also the apartment is directly under the owner’s main living space so you could hear their footsteps. The parking space was very far away which I found to be inconvenient. The owners were nice but seem a little nervous having guests on the property.

Great Neighborhood Mid Long Island

First time using VRBO. So happy to have our first experience with this lovely 1 bedroom apartment that’s attached to the owners home. Full kitchen and living area. Many properties on Long Island we looked at were basement rentals. This apartment is on the ground floor with plenty of windows for sunshine. Outside the front door was a lush backyard lawn and trees with a table and chairs for enjoying the weather. Great location for traveling east or west on the island with plenty of local shopping. Neighborhood felt very safe. During our 5 week stay the owners were fantastic and very accommodating and occasionally check to see how we were doing. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Smithtown Gem

It’s the little things folks……. that make a VRBO experience special. My wife and I are from Arizona and we have relatives who live on Long Island. This is our second year staying with Eric and Jana for the month of October. After a long hot summer in Arizona, Jana wanted to make our fall experience special. She did! We left the 100 degree weather and when we arrived we found seasonal pumpkins and mums outside our exterior patio door. Inside we found miniature pumpkins along with a fall seasonal color arrangement and other seasonal decorations. Not too much but perfect to start our month long adventure. The outside patio and their lush beautiful back yard is very inviting to sit and enjoy an evening cocktail while listening to the birds and watch the leaves fall to the ground. The neighborhood is very safe and near Uncle Giuseppe’s, one of our favorite markets on the island. The full kitchen made it easy for us to eat in when we wanted to. Eric and Jana are the perfect hosts. They have extensive knowledge of the area for questions we had. (Liquor store, deli, train station) Asking many times throughout our stay if we were comfortable in the suite and if we needing anything.

About the host

Hosted by Eric and Jana

Host profile image
We both grew up in Suffolk County on Long Island. Eric is an IT professional and Jana is a Speech-Language Pathologist . We love animals. We have 1 rescue cat, and 1 Auburn Golden Retriever. We have volunteered at local shelters. We like to travel, ski, golf, exercise, watch movies and spend quality time with friends.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property for its perfect blend of privacy, easy access to parkways and public transit, and a serene connection to nature. Our backyard is a haven for birdwatching, with species like Cardinals, Robins, Finch, Bob White, Barn Owls, Great Horned Owls, Red-Headed Woodpeckers, and occasional sightings of Ospreys and Red-Tail Hawks. We also enjoy visits from a variety of furry creatures, including a resident rabbit family, foxes, raccoons, opossums, and white-tailed deer.

The local train station is just 10 minutes away, and MacArthur Airport is only 15 minutes by car. The neighborhood is peaceful, safe, and quiet, yet we're just a short distance from bustling towns offering great shopping, dining, and nightlife.

What makes this property unique

While many properties may offer similar amenities and decor, we believe what truly sets our property apart is our commitment to making your stay a memorable one. We prioritize customer satisfaction and maintain as little or as much contact as our guests need to ensure everything runs smoothly. Our 8 years of nearly flawless reviews on HomeAway, VRBO, and now VRBO through Expedia speak for themselves.

Don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re always happy to answer any questions you may have about the unit, the neighborhood, or the area in general. Even if you choose to stay somewhere else, we welcome the opportunity to connect with potential guests.
