Beautiful in every way

This is an historic, beautiful home in a prime location. Park the car and walk everywhere! It was totally renovated in 2023 so there are state-of-the art amenities combined with old-world charm. Our family of 9 were very comfortable! We have booked already for next summer.

Perfect Beach Week

Although our family has not been to LBI in 8 years, this is where we spent our family vacations for years as our kids were growing up. We were so happy to be back and this house was perfect. Close to everything, including the beach. And so beautiful inside! Comfortable beds, huge kitchen with everything we needed, lovely bathrooms, great front porch for reading and relaxing. We definitely appreciated the beach chairs and beach towels since we were coming from all over the country.

Great stay

This was our 2nd time staying at this property and it's always a great time. The house is about two short blocks to the beach and an easy walk to great restaurants, Fantasy Island, and Bay Village. The wrap around porch is the true highlight of this property with a sound system, lights, and plenty of space for the whole family to hang out and enjoy the summer evenings. Lynn, the owner, is super communicative and helpful!

Perfect location

We spent an amazing week at this rental. The house is historic and quirky, but loved by all in our party ranging in age from 14-75. The location can’t be beat. We didn’t get in a car once the whole week. The house is even better than in the photos posted and the porch is perfect for eating, reading, relaxing. The host was easy to communicate with and we would definitely rent this house again!

Great Location!

The house was quaint, loved the large wrap around porch and the grill area. We spent a lot of time sitting outside, having cocktails and chatting. The inside was nice and clean. There were plenty of towels and beach chairs. The dishwasher had broken right before we arrived but Lynn called to let us know immediately, and sent a repairman. The only issue we had was this - we slept in the “lighthouse” bedroom, and in order to get into the bathroom upstairs we had to walk through the “angel” bedroom which was a little awkward. But I guess that’s how they built houses back in 1875! The location couldn’t have been more perfect. The house is located on a quiet street, a block from the beach, yet we could walk right into town. We walked to Buckalews, the Chicken or the Egg, the WooHoo ice cream, Fantasy Island Amusement Park, and Murphy’s market. The only day we used the car was to go to Seaside Heights for the day, which was about an hour drive. Lynn quickly responded to our questions and was a pleasure to deal with!

Perfect Family Vacation

What a great house in great location. Family orientated community. Beach, Amusement Park, Mini Golf, Water Park, Shopping and Restaurants all in walking distance. The house was beautiful. Plenty of room for our party of 8. We loved the wrap around deck and spent a ton of time out there breathing in the ocean air. Grateful for all the towels and beach chairs that were provided. Lynn was very accommodating and easy to work with.

Relaxation and convenience in a well equipped home

We had a wonderful getaway after being home 24/7 for months. The descriptions are accurate and the home was cozy, amazingly well equipped and the owner was very responsive to all inquiries. It was definitely hard to leave, but we hope to be back again someday. Oh! And you really don’t need to drive anywhere, as everything is within walking or biking distance. Enjoy!

Great Place to Stay in Beach Haven!

This house is a perfect place to enjoy family and friends. The house has a great flow with roomy and comfortable eating areas inside and out. We cooked quite a lot during our stay, and the kitchen was very well equipped. We had seven adults in our party, and the bedrooms/bathrooms fit our needs very well. The house is very nicely furnished/decorated, clean and comfortable. The beach chairs and towels were an unexpected plus! The location is also great. It is easy walking distance to shopping, restaurants and the beach. A lovely neighborhood with plenty of activity during the day, but quiet at night. Did I mention the porch? It is wonderful with plenty of comfy seating to enjoy the cool breeze.

About the host

Hosted by Lynn Nicholas

Why they chose this property

We shopped for a beach house on Long Beach Island, because it is quieter than some other New Jersey Beaches. We prefer beaches with no boardwalks and large hotels. We specifically fell in love with Historic Beach Haven because of its charm, the beautiful homes, and the quiet neighborhoods. After looking at almost 20 houses, we found this gem. The moment we stepped inside, we just fell in love with house. On the outside, it looks like a charming beach cottage, with the fabulous wrap around screened porch, but the inside has been recently updated with modern ammenities, without losing the charm. The two staircases lead to fantastic bedrooms upstairs. After we stayed in the house the first time, we felt like we were right at home, and we didn't want to leave. The former owner said the house would wrap its arms around you and make you feel right at home...and it did.

What makes this property unique

The large wrap around porch offers hours of cool breezes while you sit and listen to music on the outdoor speakers and watch the people go by. There are two small french doors on either side of the house that can be opened to the screened porch to allow the ocean breeze to fill the house. The two staircases lead to four themed bedrooms each of which has its own personality. There is an outdoor shower for washing away the sand, when returning from the beach and also supplements the two interior bathrooms.
