Overall I had a good experience staying at Jerry's house in Westhampton. We were a group of 18 people looking for house in that specific area for two reasons: 1) A house big enough to celebrate a 30th birthday on the Friday and 2) to use as a base for a friend's wedding in Westhampton Beach on the Saturday. It was the cheapest house we looked at but it satisfied our needs. Pros: Great living area, fantastic pool and outdoor area, nice bedrooms upstairs, close to Westhampton station. Cons: Downstairs rooms were a bit dungeon-like, outside furniture (especially loungers) had seen better days, hot tub didn't work at all while we were there. But overall you get what you pay for and this was definitely excellent value for money.
Pros: The pool, the hot tub, the outdoor shower and the grill were great. We had good wifi service the whole time which was important b/c we were WFH during the vacation and the A/C on the 1st and 2nd floor worked as well.
Cons: Just about everything inside the house was run down/on its last legs or well past its expiration. Two of the electric burners on the stovetop didn't work, there was no air conditioning downstairs - owner did add a unit to one of the rooms after I complained. Some of the fans provided worked, others were loud or missing covers (dangerous for kids). There were no showerheads on 2 of the 3 showers in the house so the water just sort of spits at you. The living rug did not have a square inch that wasn't stained or destroyed with cigarette burns (once again for kids who want to play on the floor - not ideal). The rug was cleaned prior to our arrival, it was just at least 20 years old and looked it. I had specifically emailed the owner to ask about beach chairs/cart (b/c only town residents can park on the beach). He responded that he had them and he did not. He did have lounge chairs that were so rusted and/or broken that they were unusable, but not a single beach chair or cart to haul our stuff to the beach from where non-residents park.
Sum up - we made the best of it and although it was a little more stressful and uncomfortable than we felt it should have been for the price - it was an okay vacation. If you are a group of adults who are looking for a crash pad to sleep and maybe hang out poolside a bit but don't intend to actually spend a lot of time in the house then it is a good fit. It is not a good fit for families.
The owner was communicative and tried to be accomodating, nothwithstanding his lack of investment in the house. The house manager was also very nice and helpful.
It was a great property. It has everything needed and is in close proximity to lots of stores.
I stayed here with a group of friends, and there is plenty of space. The property has all that you could need for a weekend stay. It is in a convenient location. Jerry was easy to contact and had a property manager available for any issues.
Jerry's home was a great setting for a group of friends! We were celebrating a joint birthday and this house was wonderful. The hot tub and pool allowed for a relaxing time when we weren't at the beach (which was about a 10 minute drive away). The grill worked well and we were able to make delicious family style meals.
Jerry was responsive and a great host.
Had a great time and the pool/outdoor space was perfect! Hot tub super nice and new.
Tons of space for our friends and all of our kids.
Would benefit from upgrading a few of the mattresses but otherwise a really nice spot. Location is perfect. Close to beach and town. North Fork accessible as well.
I have discovered Jerry's house in Westhampton as the perfect getaway for all my needs. He is a 10 minute walk to the Hampton Synagogue, allowing me to enjoy their programs all week long, including the best food several times during the Sabbath. When Jerry does not rent his house, he allows for people like myself (mostly singles) to share his house that is well maintained with a great extra-large swimming pool. I can walk to everything that Westhampton Beach has to offer, including the beach. Jerry is an excellent host and still single. His prices are competitive.

I spend a long season here in Westhampton, looking to do some rentals to offset my House Expenses. I do Trading at my computers and play Bridge as my main activities. During Rental Periods I try to find Bridge Tournaments.
