The beautiful backyard was just as pictured. My grandchildren enjoyed the pool, and we enjoyed our coffee on the covered porch. The space was family-friendly with many activities provided for our use. The location was walkable to playgrounds, parks and some restaurants. The beaches at Sandy Hook were a very short ride away.

A LOT OF FUN BUT A FEW DISCREPANCIES

We had a wonderful time; the yard and pool were beautiful and we enjoyed them. There was terrific privacy, as advertised. However the house is small and very cluttered with furniture and owner's belongings. Additionally the basement had a strong busty odor, and the "beds" advertised in the basement were child-size bunk beds only. The only TV was is in the basement but it did not work. The air conditioners work but they were all very ancient. Additionally there was no air conditioning at all in the basement. Also, when we arrived there was old food in the refrigerator, which we threw out.Despite these issues, we all had nice vacation and we enjoyed the near-by beaches and restaurants.

Response from VrboOwner on 14 July 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your kind words about the yard, pool, and privacy. I’d like to address a few of your concerns: All personal belongings have been put away, and the home is exactly as shown in the photos. There are extra pillows and sheet in the upstairs closets; table linens in the hall closet - should a guest wish to use; kitchen appliances in the downstairs bedroom - as noted in the house welcome info, games for children in the basement closet, noted in welcome info. There are indeed adult-sized beds in the basement, and I apologize if there was any confusion regarding this. I have used them myself and am a 59yo. The second TV is located on the outside porch, inside a weatherproof box, and is fully functional with an apple TV and could have been moved to the basement fr use - also noted in the welcome info. Regarding the refrigerator, it was thoroughly cleaned before your arrival. The only items left were in the freezer, the bottom unit; a bag of coffee, frozen empanadas, and ice packs, for use at the beach. As for the basement odor, we did experience a water leak, which was promptly cleaned up. (I emailed you about this.) I placed fans and odor neutralizers in the area to address the issue, but I’m sorry if this was still noticeable during your stay. Finally, upon my return, I found several issues that I’m concerned about. There was trash and empty water bottles scattered around the house, two stolen pool towels, a ripped bedspread, and dirty shorts with stains. Given that I had left a stellar review for your group, I’d hope we could maintain a respectful standard of care for the property. Again, I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the beaches and restaurants. Best regards, Sonya
