I just stayed for the month of February. There is a reason for Allison's perfect reviews. The house was clean and well cared for, and Allison was the most gracious host I've ever dealt with. We had to deal with a blizzard and snow that didn't want to melt, but Allison was very responsive and made sure that I was comfortable I would rent from her without hesitation.

The beach house is in a great location in Belmar! The house is one block from the beach and walking distance to the restaurants around Main Street. The kitchen is well stocked and the place was very clean. The porch and side dining area are great to hang out in and enjoy the weather. The place is very comfortable for a beach vacation and I would definitely recommend.

Clean, Cozy & Close to the Belmar Beach!

We enjoyed our stay at this clean, cute cozy cottage within a block of the Belmar beach. Listing was accurate, check-in was easy, and landlord texted to make sure all was good. It was a great location and quiet. (We stayed the last week of August.) Thank you for letting us stay in your beach getaway!

The Best Location!

Our family enjoyed a spectacular week in Belmar. The house is well kitted out and there is space for a family of 5. The kitchen had all the essentials and the front porch and side patio were perfect. All that plus a one block walk to the beach and shops made for a relaxing and wonderful holiday!!

Great beach home!

We very much enjoyed our stay at this house. The listing was exactly as depicted, if not better. Our family of five - two parents, one grandparent and 2 kids ages 2 and 4 fit comfortably into this house. The property was clean enough to eat off of the floors when we arrived. Allison was a very thoughtful and responsive host. The proximity to the beach was very convenient, especially with kids and all of their gear. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect Stay

We spent two amazing weeks at Allie’s house. Her house is perfect! It had everything we needed and was super clean. We loved sitting on the front porch and admiring her beautiful flowers. I already miss my morning and evening walks along the boardwalk. It was so enjoyable being one block from the beach. The weather was gorgeous and we were able to enjoy the beach every day. My daughter loved the outdoor shower and the snacks upon our arrival were some of her favorites. Allie is a wonderful host!

Beach getaway

Allison was a wonderful host. If I had any question she got back to me within moments. The house was immaculate. It is located 1 block away from beach and boardwalk. And the steps to the boardwalk are right there. Very nice neighborhood. The property is fenced but not securely for a dog to roam freely.
