Waterfront Retreat - Private Dock - Steps from Bay Beach - Sunrise Views

Welcome to Your Bayfront Escape

Wake up to beautiful bay views, sip your coffee while watching the sunrise, and stroll to the bay beach in just minutes. Welcome to your Jersey Shore happy place in Bayville!

Located on a quiet street just 500 feet from Amherst Beach, this spacious, well-loved house has everything you need for a memorable getaway — including a private dock, gorgeous water views, multiple outdoor spaces, and room for the whole crew.

Room to Relax & Gather

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to make anything from pancakes to a full-blown seafood feast — including a gas range, dishwasher, microwave, toaster oven, blender, Cuisinart, cookware, utensils, and even a lobster pot.

There's also a complimentary coffee bar, because vacation without coffee is really just a scheduling error.

The dining room seats up to 10 (high chair available upon request), while the spacious living room features a 55" Smart TV, comfy modular sofa, puzzle nook, games, books, and toys; plenty to keep everyone entertained when you're taking a break from the beach.

Sleeping Arrangements

Upstairs you'll find four bedrooms:
Primary: King bed, 55" Smart TV, desk

The primary bedroom has its own private deck overlooking the water — perfect for morning coffee, an evening cocktail.

The sunrises really are magical.

Bedroom 2: Queen bed, desk, 42" Smart TV, and lagoon/bay views.
Bedroom 3: Twin-over-double bunk bed with twin trundle, folding futon chair, and 42" Smart TV perfect for up to 4 kids. Upper bunk has a 150 pound weight limit.
Bedroom 4: Tiny room with twin bed, dresser, and small TV.

The upstairs sleeps up to 9 guests in beds, including children. A queen air mattress is also available downstairs, there is a convertible futon/loveseat that would be suitable for smaller guests, and pack n play is available upon request.
Out back you will find a fenced in deck with lounging furniture and a hanging swing. Step down to our new patio, equipped with lounge chairs, a lifeguard stand, a table and 8 chairs for dining, a gas grill, and a dock for fishing, crabbing , or parking your watercraft.

Amherst Beach is just 500 feet away, with Ocean Gate Beach, Seaside Park, and Island Beach State Park all nearby.

For more adventure, head to Seaside Heights, Casino Pier, Breakwater Beach Waterpark, or explore the area's parks, waterfront attractions, restaurants, cafés, pizza joints, and ice cream shops.

Whether your ideal vacation involves beach days, boat watching, fishing, crabbing, family adventures, cocktails on the deck, or doing absolutely nothing at all — you've come to the right place.

Come for the beach. Stay for the views. Leave with sandy feet and great memories.

And don't forget to wake up for the sunrise.

**This isn't a cookie-cutter vacation rental — it's a well-loved, lived-in beach house with character & quirks. Please note that some of the windows are not operational and others need care when using. There are some cracked floor tiles due to previous storm damage. The garage is not for tenant use. There are some light switches that don't function. While it's not perfect, it's a truly special place that everyone can enjoy!

Your Jersey Shore paradise is waiting in Bayville.
