Sorry but we only rent our home to families and couples over 25... no groups of young adults. Our home is in a quiet, pristine neighborhood and we respect our neighbors. No smoking. Accident free pets are welcome.

Families are responsible to bring their own sheets and towels. If you prefer, there are linen service companies very close to deliver and pickup whatever you may need.

Min 6 night stay for summer weeks. Sunday is change over day during the summer. Min 2 or 4 night stay all other times. Check in is at 4pm and check out is 11am.

New to our home for 2019 is a complete new bulkhead with much larger dock. It could now
accommodate a 40' boat with the 2 jetski floating docks also. Please look for the new pictures at the end. Note that the fence at the bulkhead is now gone. The side fences now go out to the water so its still fine for your dog to stay in the yard without a leash

A cozy few days at the shore

We came to Beach Haven West (LBI) to attend a celebration of life for my BIL. This cozy home could not have been more comfortable and inviting. The gas fireplace was easy to use, and was added to the coziness. We enjoyed the view of the canal and the boats out back. It was a very cold weekend so sadly we could not enjoy the patio area on the water 🙁 As we have stayed in many pet friendly properties, the cleanliness of the property was certainly a welcome surprise. The owner of the property was very attentive to our needs, and easy to communicate with. Don’t hesitate to rent this property!

Lagoon living

We had a great time. The owner was very responsive, and helped navigate us to activities we would enjoy. The house was immaculate considering pets were allowed. We brought our dog and he had a great vacation too. Access to the beaches and restaurants were great. I highly recommend this property and I will refer friends and family. It was nice to have our adventure dialed in by a family home who’s been there long enough to reveal the beautiful secrets of LBI. It was our first time there and definitely not our last. Too notch all the way!!👍

Family Vacation

The house was perfect for me and my family. The location was convenient as it was close to the beach, restaurants, and shops. Our favorite part of our stay was enjoying dinner outside on the deck, kayaking, and fishing with the kids. Thank you for opening your house to us, it was wonderful!

Wonderful trip!

Joe and Nancy are excellent hosts. Their home is well-stocked and had everything we needed. The back decks are awesome; we particularly loved the ping pong table and corn hole! Joe was very helpful in answering any questions I have. Short drive to LBI beaches; which was our main point of interest. Highly recommend this rental.

Fun and Fabulous Waterfront Home

This beautiful 5BR property on the lagoon in Manahawkin is perfect for a great family vacation. The house is immaculate, with a well appointed open kitchen and living room that lends itself to family meals. Plenty of room to sleep a large family or several couples. The basement is a wonderful game room with ping pong, darts, and TV. The backyard has a fire pit and deck on the canal. It was chilly so we didn’t get to take full advantage of the kayaks and fishing poles but they are all there and available. home is just across the bridge from the beach and there are tons of great restaurants within minutes. Joe and Nancy were super accommodating and responsive. All in all, a wonderful experience!

Fun for all ages

Joe and Nancy's home was the perfect base camp for our visit. The location is beautiful with the lagoon views, and access to nearby stores and the causeway were super convenient. Our kids' favorite things about the house were the bunk beds and the games in the basement. The adults loved the backyard - especially enjoying the firepit during some mild November nights. Our golden retriever enjoyed watching the ducks cruise past the dock. Joe was helpful and easy to communicate with. Overall - our stay was great and we hope to visit again in the future.

Beautiful property. All you could ask for in a rental

The property and house are beautiful. The owner made sure we knew where everything was. Very communicative through out the rental. The view was beautiful we even on the morning we left had some geese and mallards come visit at the dock. We will be highly recommending this place to family and friends.

Better than the beach

Best experience ever renting a property. Everything was there, bikes, kayaks, gameroom , amazing grill, gorgeous deck and lighting. Water steps away. We felt like an invited guest. There was not any negative that I can find. We want to come back next year!
