About Bill Hennessey
My father bought this property 40 years ago and built this beautiful house in 2002. Our family uses it often, we enjoy boating, fishing, kayaking, walking to the beach and most of all the beautiful relaxing views and fresh ocean breeze. I grew up on Long Island but now live in Texas and have limited time to enjoy this house, so I'm willing to share it with others who enjoy being on the water.
Bill Hennessey purchased this House in 2009
Why Bill Hennessey chose Mastic Beach
This home sits high above the water providing a spectacular view of the surrounding waters. Quiet, peaceful area with beautiful beaches on Fire Island you can walk to. Watch the sun rise and set, feel the ocean breeze and listen to the sounds of the ocean.
What makes this House unique
This is truly unique home with great water views from the large wrap around decks. The 3 bedrooms are on the 1st floor and a large great room is on the 2nd floor with a full kitchen and entertainment area with a dining table that seats 10, perfect for entertaining and family get togethers. The house is elevated 8' on pilings which provides privacy and great views! Being on the water you will appreciate the height of the house and the high decks! A recreational dock equipped with fresh water and electricity was built in 2013. A large outdoor shower with changing room was added for 2015.

Family oriented & spacious home in quiet neighborhood with comfortable and tasteful decor. Convenient and practical shopping (grocery & national chains) in Shirley, yet close enough for day trips to the Hamptons, Montauk, Sag Harbor or other "signature" towns on Long Island for serious shoppers plus wonderful farm stands & seafood along the way. Many golf courses & fishing opportunities nearby - Smith Point Marina is practically across the street from the house. Amazing sunrises over wetlands in Great South Bay viewed from the 2 decks or 3rd bedroom each morning, yet close enough to 'hop over' the causeway to Fire Island for walks on the beach, braving the surf or Lobster Night at Tiki Joe's Beach Hut. The house had so many thoughtful details and extras like the 2nd fridge and coffee station on the bedroom level, large closets, extra linens & supplies and a large washer & dryer. The main living area/kitchen/dining space upstairs was truly open concept with soaring ceilings but also included smaller seating nooks so some could read while others could enjoy the large screen TV and all be 'together'. We especially enjoyed kayaking around the wetlands and Bay using the 2 on site kayaks or just sunbathing on the decks or floating dock. Neighboring town of Patchogue was a delightful find with many dining options, Farmers' Market, Del Fiores Italian Store (for dinners at home) and live theater. We would highly recommend this property and would come back again! Thank you for sharing what felt like a home away from home.

Review of our stay at 44 Sherbrooke Ct, Smithpoint

Very nice vacation home located on the bay with gorgeous views of wet lands and bay. Most anything you need to make the stay comfortable was there, even clam rakes and knives for opening the clams that we dug nearby.
Although there were many windows on the second floor that could be opened for the cool breezes off the ocean and bay there are days when the wind is off the land, probably 3 or 4 days during August and these days the upstairs can be quite uncomfortable since upstairs is not air-conditioned. One or two ductless air conditioners would solve this problem.
First class floating boat dock and plenty of kayaks.

Our family rented this beautiful property for an Easter weekend retreat with our kids ranging in age from 12-19. The home is large and comfortable, equipped with every imaginable need for cooking, visiting, and relaxing. Despite the cool weather and surprise snowfall (!) the house was warm and comfortable.
The water views from the decks and windows are amazing. From just about anywhere in the home, there is a beautiful view of the surrounding water or wetland. The atmosphere is soothing and serene.
The location is terrific. We enjoyed running to Smith Point Beach and Bellport Bay. We also appreciated convenient stores and delis just a short drive away.
The owner was gracious and responsive. Thoughtful details and amenities made us feel right at home.
We enjoyed and appreciated our stay. We enthusiastically recommend this great VRBO find!
