The property was perfect. You could see the bay from the porch or walk 5 minutes to the beach. The owner recommended a wildlife beach preserve with a great beach and a bathroom. The place is a 4 minute drive from the house. The property has a nice backyard and a grill that really comes in handy for an inexpensive dinner. Holgate is a really great area. Less crowded and it feels more “small town” than some of the other LBI areas. I couldn’t have a higher recommendation for this property. Overall, a great experience start to finish.

We had a great time during our stay at LBI! The house is cute, clean and has pretty much everything you need (you do provide your own linens). The house is in a quiet area and is just a short drive or bike ride away from restaurants and attractions. The beach is also easily accessible, just a short walk away from the house. John was very responsive leading up to and throughout our stay at the house.

Great location!

The house is in a great spot right across from the marina in Holgate. It was very relaxing to see the bay from the front porch. Great coffee spot in the mornings! The house is well equipped and clean. We really enjoyed staying there! Beach was a quick walk up the street and John and Grace were great hosts! Thank you!

Great Time

House was very clean, exactly as described, location is great on a dead end street nice and quiet. One block walk to the beach, easy to get a hold of owner with any questions. Lucked out with weather but if it does rain the tv is amazing. Overall awesome experience for first time visit to LBI. Will rent again

Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

We loved our stay on LBI and this rental made it the perfect retreat! Short walk to the beach, right across from the marina, great private outside area (complete with shower, grill & clothesline), upgraded kitchen, washer & dryer and TV's in every room are some notable conveniences that made this bungalow feel like a home. Great local shops and restaurants nearby.... And for the kids, Fantasy Island:). The owner was a pleasure to deal with and I would definitely come back next year!

Thank you so much for renting the shore house. It makes my day that you had a nice vacation at the shore house. This shore house has been rented to families for over 30 years. Please tell your friends and relatives about the place. There are not many bungalows/ cottages left in LBI to rent, I am still renting short stays in Fall 2014. Call me anytime to rent. Thank you.

Little Slice of Heaven

John was very easy to speak to about our reservation. The home was clean, equipped with everything you can think of! The bedrooms are all adorned w ceiling fans as is the family room. The 3 steps into the home and 2 steps out to the back yard were easy for both the kids and my elderly mother. I highly recommend the home to anyone.

One might think it is small but it is MIGHTY!!! Fantastic location (dead end street, walk to beach)...so much so that we striped the street (w/chalk) for a pickleball court right outside the terrific front porch! Back yard is gigantic, enclosed shower is perfect!!! If you love television, great! as there are plenty of all sizes! And easy house parking for many! ADDED BONUS: Landlord John is a delight o work with! Book now!

Thank you!

We had a wonderful time at the cottage in Holgate! Very easy access to everything - walking distance to the beach, just up the street from beautiful sunsets at the marina. And a daily shuttle at the end of the street that took us into Beach Haven for dinner/shopping/boardwalk games and rides. The cottage was very well equipped (John thought of everything!). Our kids loved having their own space in their rooms to play/watch tv in the evenings. Kitchen/living area was great - just the right size. John the owner was very easy to reach and always had answers to all my questions. Overall we loved our stay and can’t wait to go back! Thank you for the hospitality!

Small beach cottage perfect quiet location!

Working with John was simple and helpful. He's very communicative and responsive. His home is a sweet cottage that is an easy walk to the beach (3-4 minutes) and a couple in from the bay. Beautiful sunsets from the front porch. The house has a roomy living room and games and puzzles which we loved! The bedrooms are on the small side but we don't spend much time in bedrooms while at the beach! The house was clean and the neighborhood is quiet. Renting or bringing bikes is a must if you plan to eat out and don't want to drive. We rented kayaks from across the street which was very convenient. We were a family of 5 (3 teens) and at times felt a little snug if we all needed the bathroom! But we loved taking out door showers. I would definitely rent again if I'm back in Holgate!

A true beach house!

We stayed at this beach house in June and got super lucky with hot hot weather! We were 5 adults, a 3yr old and 2 1yr olds. It was TIGHT! As you can imagine, the 1 yr olds come with pack-n-plays, booster chairs, bottles, etc! The bedrooms are very small, but were fine for the few days we were there (rent-a-crib will not fit in the rooms, pack-n-plays barely fit). Beds were comfy. Everything in the house worked fine. There's only 1 AC unit in the main room, which is very loud, but it worked so I guess that's all that matters. But with babies sleeping in the rooms, we couldn't keep the doors open to let the AC in. Not a huge deal since every room has a fan, which is great. The WIFI was very spotty, we couldn't really use it. Not sure if it was because we were all on it and the signal is low, but its not such a bad thing right? The backyard was great - we brought a blow up pool for the kids and spent half the day in the back and half the day at the beach. We like to cook on vacation so the kitchen wasn't ideal but we made it work. It's very small with little counter and cabinet space. Not a huge deal. Overall, this is a true beach house! Not meant to hang out in the house but probably much more space if there weren't so many of us! The front porch is great and the marina across the street made for a nice walk for the kids to explore. If you haven't been to LBI in 2 years, note that the dunes are HUGE! All for good reasons but if you have elderly guests, medical problems, or kids that come with a lot of STUFF, plan accordingly. We had rented a beach wheelchair for our grandfather which was a lifesaver but you definitely need some muscle getting up those dunes! Owner was a pleasure to deal with :) thanks for letting us rent your beach house - we had a great time and made lots of wonderful family memories!

My family and I had a great week at this property. Throughout the whole time leading up to our vacation, John was friendly and informative about what to expect on our stay. The house was just as advertised when we arrived, clean and well kept. It's a short walk to the beach and located in the best section on the Island. I look forward to renting here again and would recommend to any family looking for a good experience for their vacation. Thanks again John and Grace!!

Cute home with great outdoor space

This is a great home for a couple or family. It has great outdoor space, including a private yard which is hard to come by in most LBI homes. It is off the main drag so it's a nice quiet neighborhood. The home is very close to the bay and short walking distance to the ocean. The homeowners are so nice and helpful in answering any questions you may have. I also loved that this was a one level home for my Mother, which made it easier for her to access all parts of the home. I would highly recommend this home for your beach getaway!

Clean but very small. Ac not central.

The House was updated and clean. However, the house is extremely small. One bedroom is really a mud room/laundry room. My biggest complaint was the ac situation. The only unit is in the living room wall. This made the bedroom very hot and impossible to sleep with the door shut.
