We arrived to a clean and ready property. The air-conditioning worked nicely on a very hot weekend. The location is extremely close to a variety of beaches and restaurants making for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
The house has so much character and with neighborhood to match! The perfect beach stay.Scott, the host was wonderful, responsive and easy to work with. He made sure our stay was perfect, start to finish. We will definitely be back.
This was the perfect place for our little beach get away. It's perfect for 3 people (at most). It's a little on the small side, but it's filled with so much character and the place was beautiful. It was easy to find everything we needed and we were so close to the beach. You can easily walk to some of the local spots and the main beach areas are a short drive away. I will note that there is AC only on the 1st floor and the upstairs does tend to run a little hot. Other than that the stay was great and Scott was very communicative. Looking forward to another stay!
The good: Location of the property is tucked into a seaside neighborhood with plenty todo within walking & bike distance. We drove over the bridge to sandy hook beach during the day then back to the appt to shower up & walk to a local establishment that had food options via outdoor bar/grill, a band and deck over the water during sun set. The bar was fun - and the local bagel shop in the morning was fantastic. Physical facts: This property abuts what appears to be two abandoned homes & accessible via a tight overgrown path. On the plus side, it’s very quiet…while the 1st impression leaves a bit to be desired. The upstairs doesn’t have A/C, one large bedroom is pad locked with no access & no off street parking so it’s the ole drive around the neighborhood in search for parking which the owner fully disclosed pre-check in. It’s a beach house, if you don’t have fun here you’re not a fun person - enjoy the beach & all this area has to offer!
