The McKinley Bungalow, created by Studio Robert McKinley, in Montauk, New York is a unique vacation rental home that offers a unique experience for guests. Travel often inspires people to take a piece of their trip home with them and the bungalow home makes it incredibly easy for its guests to do so.
The expansive bungalow home's interior is meticulously curated, featuring a variety of goods from the designers' favorite artists, makers and manufacturers. The McKinley Bungalow has been set up to be entirely shoppable, featuring a variety of products from brands like Floyd, Shinola and Hem.
