Our home offers families and couples or individuals older than 25 years old a great get away for a few days or the week during all seasons. (NO SENIOR WEEK/PROM WEEKENDS); Adults who deceptively choose to rent our home for those under the age of 25 will be charged the full $1500 security deposit fee and be evicted. We also have another property that allows us to keep an eye on our home.
This exciting and relaxing vacation awaits you and your loved ones in the less congested Northern end of Ocean City, NJ. It is conveniently located at the corner of Wesley and 1st, midway between the beach and the bay. Stroll down to the beach, visit the boardwalk with its shops and amusement/rides or play a round of mini-golf with the kids, see a show at the Music Pier, visit the quaint shops and eateries on Asbury Avenue. Walk to the bay and enjoy crabbing off the bulk heads, rent a jet ski or visit the nearby casinos or Cape May County Zoo. There is always something to do! Enjoy the abundance of sun and boardwalk activities all within a short walk while you reconnect with family and friends. The condo association does not allow renters the opportunity to bring pets along.

The Condo

This location features a renovated second floor condo in a home that has withstood the test of time and storms since 1929. It has a fully equipped over sized galley kitchen and plenty of modern amenities to enhance your stay. You will find yourself choosing between relaxing on the spacious shaded front porch or the spacious back sun deck. Either location is equipped for dining. So you can either start your morning with a good book and coffee on the front porch or after a short walk back from the beach your family can eat lunch on the back porch before finishing the day out on the beach. From the front porch to the rear deck our home offers a cozy comfortable space. Though the home retains some of its historical charm it is fully equipped with cable, wireless wifi, and smart TVs. We hope your family finds our home a place to relax and build memories.
This home is a smoke free environment.

Great location for a small family. We appreciated the cleanliness and availability of toys for young kids and beach gear. The only thing I would note is to be aware that the owners stay in the unit above and will check in with you

Great location with convenient proximity to beach and a quiet neighborhood. Clean and well equipped space with the essentials. Box with beach items was helpful. Perfect size for our family vacation with our two young children and especially appreciate the box of toys so we didn’t have to pack any. Love the front porch for relaxing after a day on the beach. It was our second time staying and we had a wonderful vacation.

Fall getaway

My husband, daughter, son in law and I enjoyed our stay at this northern gem. We had hoped for better waves for surfing, but enjoyed bike riding and long walks on the beach and boards. The home is cozy. Great front and back porch. The home is equipped with everything needed for a few days.

Exceeded our expectations! Lovely place, perfect location, very comfortable stay!

We really enjoyed our stay! The condo is very conveniently situated, close enough to walk to the beach/boardwalk. The home furnishings and decorations were very nice! The space was very well utilized so it made the place feel more spacious. Our kids really loved it there, the toys, puzzles, board games, and the smart tvs were very helpful! Would definitely stay there again next time!

About the host

Hosted by John and Cheryl Zdon

Host profile image
I grew up in South NJ and my wife grew up in PA just north of Philly. Our family became weekly summer renter to the island in 1982. After 34 years of vacationing and walking the island dreaming we decided to make an investment in our future. We searched the shore up and down and each time we came back to what felt right, Ocean City. We love vacationing here not only in season but throughout the year.

Why they chose this property

My wife's had two criteria to her selection of a home. It must have off street parking and have a porch. From the moment we walked on this property we just had a feeling that this home would be perfect to start our next stage of life. We wanted a home to share with our children and grand children. We are now looking forward to making memories with our grandchildren in this home. This 3 bedroom 1 bath home with both outdoor spaces, off street parking and private outdoor shower felt right and we just knew it would be perfect to share.

What makes this property unique

My wife fell in love with the front porch. We will often find her out there reading and drinking her morning coffee. The rear deck is also a key feature of the home. It's cozy 3 bedroom interior has just that perfect feel. Its location in the northern end of the island puts us close enough to many of the attractions but not in the center of all the congestion. The home is centrally located in the middle of the island on the northern end. In either direction with a short walk is the beach access and boardwalk with public restrooms or the bay with it recreational features.
