Annual Powell Family Vacation 2024

This cozy little house was perfect for our small family of five. This is an older home. No fancy hot tubs, etc. but all of the bases are covered. We enjoyed making family meals in the kitchen and having our evening meal on the screened-in porch. The living room was also a comfortable space for us to gather. We visited after Labor Day and one or two mornings had a chill in the air. The host (Doug) helped us get the gas fireplace going and we could enjoy morning coffee in front of the fire. Our hosts (Susanne and Doug) were very responsive and typically on site within minutes of our texting a question. They went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. I recommend texting Susanne directly and bypassing the VRBO app. I experienced 24 hour delays with the VRBO app during check-in. The location was ideal for us. Walking distance to the beach, boardwalk and local ice cream shop. Short drive to a great grocery store and the Belmar train station. You may not be able to see the ocean from the house but, if the surf is up you can hear it, and a distant train whistle from the porch. So fun. Thank you Susanne and Doug for sharing your lovely home with us.

Absolutely wonderful

This beautiful home with red awnings was an absolutely wonderful vacation spot for us! The location in a charming, authentic Belmar neighborhood couldn't have been better...close to the beach and all the happenings in Belmar but private enough to truly unwind. The house was lovely and bright inside and out, with all the amenities anyone would want. The owners were a pleasure to deal with and easy to communicate with. Can't wait to book again!

Belmar Beach House

House is very neat and clean. Is exactly as advertised. Nice that sheets and towels are included. Lots of beach stuff included, too. Lovely outside porch with large table for eating outside. The house is two blocks from the beach, which is a great beach! One thing to be aware of, Belmar is a party town. We didn't know this before booking. There is a bar at the end of their street. Loud music, people talking outside till 2:30am, cars beeping horns. Very quiet Sunday-Wednesday. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, not so much!!!

Great Stay in Belmar!

Had a great family vacation week at this lovely house in Belmar. Suzanne & Doug were the perfect hosts and were super quick to respond to questions. Their lovely house is just a few short blocks to the beach and to the beautiful walking trail around Lake Como. Great week and would definitely book again!

Convenient location

First time at the Jersey Shore. The house was a 5 minute walk to the beach, as well as snack food options and a coffee shop. A huge ShopRite only a short drive as well as a Target and CVS. Belmar is a dog friendly place and my dog enjoyed the long walks around the area. A great lakeside walk is only 2 blocks away. The house was comfortably and tastefully furnished. Very clean. There was a beach buggy and other items one could use to have a great day at the beach. The beach has exceptionally clean bathrooms. It was a great beach vacation at this Belmar beach house.

Paradise

Two blocks from the beach and a safe quiet neighborhood. The master bedroom suite was wonderful! If you have children, there is a small bedroom with a twin bed. The home is a paradise. I would definitely recommend this home for your vacation.

Wonderful Stay

Our week in this Belmar rental was lovely. The location was perfect and the house is as well kept as it appears to be in the pictures. It is also located on a corner lot, so the outside area was spacious and private. My favorite area of the home was the screened in porch where we enjoyed eating and spending time with our dogs. It was also wonderful that both bedding and towels were provided, along with everything you could need for the beach including beach passes. Our only complaint was that there was limited closet space and the mattress upstairs wasn’t the best. But overall, I highly recommend staying here and would most definitely return.

Great corner lot close to beach - walkable to so much in Belmar

Great location!! Charming home with character. Very short walks to beach, Belmar boardwalk, MamaLukes, DJais, Lake Como among other places. This home is on a corner close to neighbors, yet feels private inside! Neat living space. Wicker rockers on covered patio. Table for 6 in screened porch. Love the red & white theme through the outdoor furniture, the flowers, the awnings. Neat Little balcony off upstairs loft bedroom. Note: no privacy door to loft bedroom. Stone fireplace. Not a huge footprint, yet home felt roomy for the space. ***One thing to note before renting*** If you need to be able lock the doors to feel secure, check with owners first. We were unable to lock the doors/secure the home in the kitchen and the porch. While it’s a safe neighborhood, I would like to have known that beforehand. The owners were extremely responsive, so I suspect that this is something that will be resolved quickly. We loved being able to walk to Lake Como just a couple of short blocks away. About a mile long loop - very clean - and full of wildlife. Beautiful homes. We saw a swan family with 7 babies, a great blue heron, snowy egret, red winged blackbirds, etc. At Belmar beach, while walking along the clean, wide boardwalk, we saw dolphins jumping offshore! And watched them swim alongside where we were walking! Loved the location. We did go prior to Memorial Day, so I suspect “summer at the shore” activity hadn’t really started yet.

Lovely time

Hi, We stayed at the charming cape for my mothers 94th birthday. It was the perfect place for our small family to enjoy the beach, a short walk down the sidewalk to the boardwalk that had a nice ramp up to it. The house had everything we needed and the hosts were very helpful. Thanks, Ray

A Perfect Stay for a Beach Getaway

The house was perfect for our family. It was very clean, had all the amenities listed, and was in a great neighborhood. A quick two minute walk and you were on the beautiful Belmar Boardwalk. The hosts were kind and very attentive. The house was exactly what you see in the pictures and then some. We would definitely stay here again.

Belmar Hospitality

The house was just like in the pictures. It was very clean and very comfortable and only a short walk to the beach. Our favorite spot was the screened-in porch, where we had breakfast every morning and coffee every evening. The hosts were extremely attentive and accommodating, always available for any questions or recommendations, like restaurants and activities. They would always urge us to call, if we needed anything. It would be hard to find a nicer place to stay.

Good layout for family time

We were three couples within a family, plus a small dog. This is a bright and spacious home with a great layout, and ample seating inside and outside. It was cool enough most days but when we did use the AC, it worked smoothly. It was an easy walk to the beach (and Pitney-dog beach)and did plenty of exercise walking on the lengthy boardwalk, around Lake Como and Spring Lake town. Having three parking spots on the two driveways was a definite plus. I prepared most meals in the kitchen and found it pretty easy to work in. We also used the grill twice. The Sweenys are friendly and attentive hosts. A shower issue was quickly resolved with a plumber’s visit. I would definitely envision another stay in the future.

Fun at the shore!

My family and I including our dog really loved this house! The pictures are accurate but the rooms are bigger than they appear. The beds were all comfortable. Loft space is very large. A/C, washer/dryer, outdoor shower and garage full of beach equipment were perfect, but the best feature of the home is the screened in porch! The awnings kept it cool and breezy so it was really enjoyable! The owners are very accommodating and responsive! Would definitely recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Susanne Sweeny

I'm retired and I live in Vero Beach, Florida 6 months a year and Belmar, New Jersey the other 6 months. We built a house on the Ocean just three blocks away. This cottage is my family home that I don't want to sell, but want to rent out to people who will enjoy it, but take good care of it.

Why they chose this property

This is a home that has been in my family since 1944. I spent all my summers growing up there, my parents spent their retirement years there and my children and now grandchildren spend time there. My husband and I decided to completely renovate the home in 1997, while at the same time maintaining the integrity of the style and charm of our home.

What makes this property unique

Being less than 3 blocks from the beach and two blocks from the lake. Having two lovely porches, one screened in for meals and entertaining. Having two driveways so there is never a parking problem. The property is one hour outside of Manhattan with many ways to get there: car, train, boat. Belmar has great beaches, boardwalk, restaurants, marina, minigolf......it's all here.
