Surf City New Jersey Fall Vacation
My wife and I had an amazing visit to the Jersey Shore and the rental home was a big reason why. The house had everything one would need for a 10 day stay. It was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with all the devices we required. The front and back decks looked recently refurbished and featured comfortable furniture and a gas grill. The house was only three or four houses from the beach and was located very close to the bridge back to the mainland which saves a lot of time for excursions off the island. We would certainly consider staying here again on future visits to Long Beach island.

Week at the beach
The location of the house was a very short walk to the lifeguarded beach. Restaurants and attractions were also a short walking distance. The deck spaces were wonderful for relaxing and getting some sun. We enjoyed our stay for the week.

Perfect beach escape!
We had a fantastic family vacation in Andy’s home! The closeness to the beautiful beach was amazing and the house was very well appointed with all we needed to cook and relax. There were tons of toys and games, which our daughter really enjoyed! Close to shops and restaurants. Would highly recommend!

We have been renting on LBI for over 20 years and this property is by far the best place we have stayed. Clean, roomy, attentive owner and only a small walk to the beach. Thank you Andrew for allowing us to use your home to enjoy our vacation. We highly recommend your property to future renters!

Perfect Family Vacation.
My family and I had a great time at this beach house. Steps to the beach, shops and restaurants. The outdoor patio is so nice with plenty of seating. It is the perfect chill out beach house. Andy is a very attentive host and made sure that we had everything we needed. Thanks for the stay!

Great Host, House, and Location
We checked in late in the evening, and Andy stayed up to make sure that we arrived OK. Everything was just as represented. We had two daughters and three grandchildren with us and there was more than enough room. There were toys, books, games, and beach chairs. The Surf City Beach at the end of the block must be the widest beach on LBI. There were plenty of restaurants and coffee shops in an easy walk from the house. We had boxes being sent to the house which Andy was kind enough to help us coordinate their deliveries. I had an expensive SUV rental car substituted for the rental I requested, and I was able to daily park it in the garage without any problem. Andy is a hands on host who bends over backwards to make sure that you have a wonderful stay. We plan to return.

Great Place - Very Clean - Exact as advertised
We were in for the week before a family wedding. This house was true to how it is described. Walking distance to beach, bay, restaurants, coffee shop, bagel shops, small grocery shops & larger grocery shops. Very clean house with great updated kitchen, bathrooms and over all amenities. Plenty of seating both inside and outside. Kitchen is well stocked for all kind of cooking and tools.

Short walk to a great beach!
Had a fabulous and relaxing stay at this updated beach house. Beds were very comfortable and the new front and rear decks welcomed you to sit together and enjoy each other during meals and after a day at the beach. We prepared all our meals at the house and the kitchen had everything needed (just could have used a few more wine glasses 😀). Andy was extremely responsive and proactive with communicating. The house is in a great location which made it easily accessible to local produce and seafood markets as well as the grocery store. As walking just a few minutes to the beach was a priority, this house was perfect for us. If we have the opportunity to visit LBI again, Andrews house will be our 1st choice if available.

Great Location
This house is in a great location with close and easy access to the beach, right by a lifeguard stand AND also within walking distance to many shops and fun activities. Comfortable beds (we have been in houses with some very hard beds!). Delightful front deck with awning when needed. Back deck is very spacious & comfortable. Our family didn't use it too much since indoor access is through master bedroom where we often had an infant napping, however that deck was still accessible via downstairs, outside staircase. Kitchen well supplied with pots/pans but also with some spices/condiments, cleaning supplies etc. The home owner very responsive to questions/inquiries. Note for anyone who might use outside shower: hot water faucet/valve is on the right ;-)

Surf City at its best
Perfect location, close to beach and well stocked kitchen. Front porch with sunshade was perfect for all day use. Rear porch is huge for family gatherings/cookouts. Washer dryer comes in handy! Plenty of rear yard space to play with kids or enjoy patio. Outdoor shower is always a plus for sand. Nice dining table if you must eat indoors. Plenty of TVs and games. Location is short walk to huge beach. Owner very responsive to all inquires. Highly recommended by all 9 of us who stayed here for family wedding. Only bummer was only sheets provided were for King Bed so remember to bring lots of bedding!

October stay in LBI -
Property was as described in the listing and owner was easy to communicate with throughout the entire booking process and during our stay. Clean. Comfortable sleeping arrangements that worked well for us and our extended family. Back deck is more spacious than we were expecting with plenty of seating. Quiet street with easy access to the beach. Everything met our expectations.

First Family Vacation Did Not Disappoint!
The photos and the description do not do this house justice! It was perfect, and I was blown away. The back deck is HUGE and has lots of areas for play and dining. We also made great use of the front deck which had a retractable awning. We had our 16 month old baby with us and being so close to the beach made it really easy to come back to the house quickly for nap time and then go back out again. Walking distance to so many cute restraunts, ice cream/shaved ice shops, coffee shops and other markets - we would absolutely rent this house again!
