I rarely write reviews but felt compelled after staying at this wonderful home.
James and Heather could not have been more helpful from the start. We had a multi-generational family vacation with ages ranging 2-70 and they answered every question we had along the way.
The house itself is beautiful. The en-suite bathrooms were nice to give everybody some privacy, and every room had a balcony entrance which made moving around easy. The kitchen, kitchen table, and living room all have ample space for a large group, though you will be spending all of your 'home time' on the massive deck. A grill and a fully stocked kitchen made meals a breeze.
The home provides beach chairs, umbrella, and a cart if you need it. The outdoor shower - with hot water - was perfect for rinsing off multiple kids at the same time. Huge driveway fit 5 cars for us but in reality could probably fit 8 if you tried.
Barnegat Light itself is a beautiful, quiet town yet has a few restaurants and a grocery store to fill any last min needs. This is a place where you go to relax, not to party. There are a few ways to get to the beach. Walk thru the path thru the dunes (it is a beautiful walk), drive down a few blocks and park and walk, or what we found the easiest is to take the tractor which swings by every 10m or so and is just a few minutes ride to the beach. This was easiest for the elderly people in our group, and a novelty for the kids. The beach itself is huge, clean, and never felt crowded, even in July.
Will be staying again, and would highly recommend this house.
