The Boat House through the lens of RJ Bruni

Jun 25, 2026, 9:05 PM•dwr

Design Within Reach

New York-based film director RJ Bruni traded the hubbub of Manhattan for a quiet weekend at the Boat House. “A natural space that slowed everything down. Cooking became an event. Coffee lasted longer. Pages disappeared faster. Conversations stretched late into the night,” RJ notes. “A reminder that good design isn’t only about how something looks. It’s about how it makes you live.”

No agenda

Fishing, paddleboarding, cycling to the beach, or simply taking in the sounds of the harbor – the Boat House invites you to lose track of time.

Come together

Three bedrooms and bathrooms, a screen-free parlor, a dining room that seats up to eight – gathering at the Boat House is intentional and easy.

Set sail

No traffic lights. One gas station. One supermarket. Life on Shelter Island is made for taking it easy. Here, days unfold naturally – from waking with the sounds of the harbor and cycling to Crescent Beach to afternoon walks at Mashomack Preserve and sunset dinners under open skies.
