Cozy Stay and Great Location

The property and location for great for both my partner and I. Everything was in walking distance we wanted to go to, with the beach right up the road. The cottage itself was clean, organized, and comfortable to stay in. Kathie was great at communicating answering our questions before we arrived and accommodating our arrival. Would recommend the cottage for anybody!

Charming cottage

My wife and I absolutely adored our stay at this little cottage. It was the perfect location, right on the border of Lavallette and Ocean Beach. It is a simple but charming space that reminded me of my childhood and teenage years down the shore. It just has that "shore house" ocean smell embedded in it! Perfect for two people or a small family, I highly recommend this cottage. What it lacks in space and amenities, it makes up for in its nostalgic charm. Kathie was an incredible host who was easy to communicate with during our stay. I look forward to my next visit!

Kathie was wonderful, very accommodating and flexible. When we needed to extend our stay, she quickly opened up additional dates for us without hesitation. We were in between homes and looking for a short-term rental, and this cottage was the perfect fit. While minimalistic, it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I’d recommend it for one or two guests. It’s a small but charming space. Kathie also checked in via text to make sure everything was going smoothly and kept us informed about important weather updates. She was always easy to reach and a pleasure to communicate with. It was a perfect for what we needed. Thank you, Kathie!

Great location but the bungalow was lacking. Very old, not updated. Furniture was very uncomfortable, I cannot stress this point enough. Way too much clutter and flea market/ curbside finds decorating the place making the place very busy looking and not relaxing (less is more). We were constantly bumping into things, stubbing our toes, stepping on popped nails and worried the floor was going to give out in places. The shower had no light or grab rails. On the plus side, . The owner was very nice and helpful. And the beach was just a short walk away.

We will share your feedback regarding the furniture with the owner. We are sorry you found the bungalow uncomfortable, but we have taken care to make sure that the pictures and description accurately describe the rental unit. We’ve also taken care to price it appropriately for the amenities at the house. Thank you for your input, and we wish you all the best on your future travels.

House

Small frig that ices up, silverware drawer was a pain in a neck, pots old. Hot water heater was not sufficient last Only one shower.. The porch was old and needs painting. The barbecue was disgusting with grease all over and flamed up .The beds were the only thing that were decent.

Thank you for your feedback. It is unfortunate that your stay did not meet your expectations. This rental is, and is presented as, a 1950s classic Jersey Shore bungalow and is priced as such as reflected in our other 5 star reviews. We communicated frequently during your stay and we did our best to address any issues you brought to our attention. We are sorry you were disappointed in the rental but hope you still enjoyed your time at the Jersey Shore.
