We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. What really made our experience special was the amazing service. Kat, the General Manager, was incredibly welcoming and attentive. She made sure we felt right at home and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. We truly appreciated her kindness and professionalism. We’ll definitely be back!

The bar and staff are really nice. They have a courtyard area with fire pits the vibes are great. Only issue was the room was very humid and sticky with alot of nats in the bathroom. I discovered the dehumidifier in the morning and it was completely full maybe it would have been better if we emptied it before bed. They are just opening so maybe they need time to smooth over the little kinks. I would try again in the future. ☺️

Great stay for a fun time!

There is no receptionist therefore getting a hold of people if you need something is difficult. Overall stay was a pleasure. Resturant next to hotel becomes fun for going out at night so you have to enjoy music as you can hear a little of it from the room.

Horrible l. Automation everything which doesn’t allow them to use common sense or help with anything
Jonathan, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

There is no one who staffs this hotel. Eventually we received a text message with a code to enter a room. There were about 200 hundred people on the grounds for some kind of open cocktail party. Security guards were present and initially wouldn’t let us park, enter the property or bring our luggage to the room. Music blasted until late in the evening. Room smelled of mold and towel rack fell off wall when touched. This is not a hotel, it’s more a club with some rooms to crash in when you’re done partying.
Meryl, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Booked a few hours before our stay. Bed was super comfy and room had more of a small cottage feel then hotel room, which we enjoyed. Was newly redone. Loved the painted floors and the updated bathroom with nice flooring that was not slippery when wet. Outdoor seating areas were very nice and we found hanging out there very relaxing. Restaurant and bar were a few feet away. Enjoyed our stay. But there is no lobby or onsite staff. We had to check in online and they sent us room # and key code. As luck would have it, my phone was dead and I had to wait to charge it before we could get in the room which was a bit of a hassle.

This accommodation is hardly a hotel as there is no office or staff on site. Check in and out were done remotely via text. The place looks like a refurbished motel with small room spread out in a row and no office. Positives were the comfort of the bed and the quality of the bed and bath linens. Both the Expedia and Ruschmeyer’s website have been changed since we booked the room.The information available when we made the reservation stated our room would have a porch. It didn't. The grounds look like a party location with tables, umbrellas, bean bags and hammocks, all in disarray with rubbish strewn about. Rubbish bin was overflowing. Virtually no flat surfaces for belongings, no luggage rack. No drinking glasses or hand soap in bathroom. The shower curtain was filthy & the soap rack fell down. The bathroom floor looked like it hadn't been swept or mopped. Poor ventilation. Bathroom window sealed shut. The double-hung window was inoperable. There was a chemical smell in the room from a dish of solid air freshener that we placed outside the room. The de-humidifier hadn’t been emptied. The throw pillow on the bed had streaks of paint on it. We are experienced travelers and found this place to be a joke.

Great hotel

We only needed to stay for one night but what an adorable room. So quaint and cozy. I loved the outside area with the tables and the beach like setting. The hotel had great communication and made sure we knew what to do because we were getting there late. Would definitely stay here again.

8/10 Very good

Such an incredible location and very nice property. If the guest rooms were updated with more natural light, less damp feeling and a bathroom renovation this would be a top quality hotel. Our room was very damp, the bedding was wet in the mornings, very little light and the bathroom was incredibly small and made us question the Overall price we paid for the stay. We would definitely return if their are other lodging accommodations available.

Staff was friendly. Room was nice. TV/Fire Stick didn't work, but at least the radio was tuned to WEHM. 🙂

The entire staff was amazing led by Kat and Max who were so helpful upon our arrival. They went out of their way to help us check in and even provided towels a bag and sunscreen for our trip to beach We loved the room and had a lovely dinner at the restaurant and the staff then got us set up at the fire pits with smores kits. The renovations were great but the staff is really what made our stay special

We had an amazing time at Ruschmeyers this summer. The staff was very helpful and friendly every time they saw us. The rooms were clean and up to date. Great water pressure, hot water, heating and ac. The common spaces were easily accessible and very nice. The free breakfast and welcome drinks was a great touch, as were the bikes available for use on the property. The s’mores supplies were so cute and fun way to enjoy our last night in the Hamptons. 10/10 would recommended.

4/10 Fair

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a disappointing experience. Upon arrival, there was a strong mildew smell in our room, which transferred to our clothes even to our unpack items that we need to send to dry cleaners when we got home. We decided to have drinks at the bar, but it was uncomfortably cold with the AC blasting. The $25 cocktails were asked to transfer in plastic cups when we want to step out to patio which felt inappropriate given the high price. The room itself was not clean, there were bugs on the floor and even after killing three of them, we didn't feel comfortable. Additionally, a lightbulb was broken; when we asked for it to be fixed, instead of using a master key to enter while we were at the bar, we were asked to return to our room to let the staff in. This was incredibly inconvenient. Overall, I was very disappointed with my stay and wouldn't recommend this hotel based on my experience.

I loved this place. The suites are in these cute little houses that used to be a kids camp. The outdoor dining/fire/games area in the middle is great. I met several other guests at the campfire.
