The house was very comfortable for the eight of us (all adults). The kitchen was well equipped, and it was great that we had access to the laundry and also the garage. We really enjoyed all of the balconies for chatting, reading, or early morning coffee.We were so happy we were able to bring our dogs. It is getting harder every year to find pet-friendly rentals on LBI. The surrounding streets are all pretty quiet, so walking the dogs around the house was pretty stress-free.The location of the house was great, with a lot of places within walking distance. We really enjoyed the Northside Bar and Grill and the several ice cream places within a few blocks.

LBI family vacation

-“ we highly recommend this home for a perfect LBI experience. This home had everything we could possibly need for our family of seven adults and one eight year-old grandchild. It is central located to the best dining on the island. It’s a perfect location for short walks to the children’s bay beach and a short walk to the Beach. We were able to walk to the nearby market for produce, A short walk to satisfy our craving for an ice cream cone- we were able to walk to grab a bottle of wine to take to dinner. The house was very clean and spacious, The roof deck and decks coming off of the master bedroom were a great place for morning coffee or an evening board game – Spectacular views of the fireworks on the Fourth of July. We would definitely stay here again. The owners were responsive and very kind people. We cannot say enough good things about this year‘s vacation except what great memories we made!

Great stay in Surf City

We had a great stay at Terry and Emma's house in Surf City. The location is perfect- close to the beach, bay beach, and walking distance to lots of food places. The house was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate 6 adults and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The only thing I would have to say about the house that isn't ideal is that the only way to get to the decks is through the upstairs loft room which provides that room with no privacy. It wasn't a huge issue for us but it would have been nice to be able to access the decks without having to worry about disturbing those staying in that space. Overall, we would stay here again and highly recommend this area!

Great location and good features, with some caveats

Great beach rental in Surf City. There’s no door to the primary suite, which would have been good to know, and was a bummer. The awesome decks are accessible far from the living space, which was less than optimal. The outdoor shower is not enclosed; it’s just a hose, basically. I don’t think it should count as an outdoor shower unless it’s enclosed. The living space / kitchen are well appointed with a lot of dishes and cups, pots and pans. The location is AWESOME.
