As the sun begins to dip over the private Lavallette lagoon, the "Sunset Lounge" comes to life. Sink into the Adirondack chairs around the flickering fire pit. It’s the perfect spot to toast to the day while the kids watch the boats

A dreamy summer setup! Love the cool blues and crisp whites. And how cool is that retro surfboard shower? The perfect touch.

The Secret Side of the Shore: Lagoon-Front Living in Lavallette

Skip the parking battles, crowded beaches, and long walks with gear. This is a “park the car and forget it” getaway—where mornings start on calm lagoon waters and evenings end by the fire as boats drift past your private dock.

Perfect for families, couples, and anyone looking to enjoy the Jersey Shore without the chaos.

A True Family-Friendly Beach Experience

While the ocean is just two blocks away, many of our guests discover that the real hidden gem is the nearby Bay Beach.
Calm, shallow water
Ideal for young kids
No waves, no stress
It’s the kind of place where kids can play freely—and you can actually relax.

Your Private Launchpad to Explore
Step out back and you’re on the water.
Launch kayaks directly from the dock
Paddle to the nearby Sedge Islands

Find quiet stretches of sand that feel like your own private beach
Pack a cooler, bring your chairs, and make a day of it.
Close to the Action—Far from the Noise

When you want energy, Seaside Heights is just 2 miles away with rides, boardwalk games, and restaurants.

When you’re ready to unwind, come back to the lagoon—where the only sound is the water against the dock.

Everything I expected and more!

Our stay at the lagoon retreat was phenomenal! The place was amazingly clean. The master bedroom bed that I slept in was very comfy! The town was so peaceful and quiet. The bay views are picturesque. It was the perfect location for us to try kayaking for the first time. The deck was HUGE out back and we loved hanging out there. We walked a few blocks to the ocean and that was very beautiful as well.

We try to think through the little details so your stay feels effortless from the moment you arrive.

Why they chose this property

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS NEIGHBORHOOD?

Lavallette has the perfect balance—it’s peaceful, family-friendly, and right by the water, but still close to everything. You can walk to the beach during the day, then bike over to Seaside for the boardwalk, rides, and energy. We love being on the lagoon because it gives you a completely different experience—quiet mornings, time on the water, and amazing sunsets—while still being minutes from the ocean.

What makes this property unique

What makes this home special is the combination of location and experience.

The outdoor space and sunset views are something guests remember most. Inside, it’s designed to feel comfortable and spacious for families or groups who want to relax without feeling crowded. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s a place to actually enjoy the shore.
