Right on the water, this home was in a quiet neighborhood, peaceful, and clean. The kitchen was well stocked with kitchenware and the home itself was very comfortable. The neighbors were an absolute delight too! Reservation, check-in, and check-out were seamless and Gary, the host, was very responsive. I highly recommend staying at this home.

Loved my stay!! Location was amazing! Hartshorne Woods Park is around the corner so I took my dog for daily winter walks. Sandy Hook is also within walking distance so we took a beach walk as well. Adorable beach bungalow with absolutely everything you need! Close to everything! Will definitely stay there again!! Gary and Pete were super helpful!!
