Clean and comfy

Our family of five (kids ages 9 and under) had a nice time at the beach for a short stay. We’ve been to other beaches in the past, so this was our first time to Manasquan. The beach cottage was so clean, and the quick access to the beach was great! The kitchen was well-stocked, and cable TV kept my kids entertained during a rainy morning. It’s less than a 10 minute drive into town for restaurants, a yummy ice cream shop, and groceries.

Excellent Find Close to the Inlet

This perfect for my husband and I along with our three children (20,19 &15 years old). The home was impeccably clean, the kitchen was so updated and the separate ice machine was a hit with all of us! Obviously you’ll have to do your own grocery shopping and linen rental (as specified in listing) this gem had a wonderful supply of utensils and extras that made our trip so much easier. Communication with owner was excellent and helpful. And while we were there for a sad occasion, my heart (since childhood) belongs to Manasquan. This home is so close the the beach (near swings) and the Manasquan inlet, we were able to center ourselves with the sand and beautiful sunsets. Only regret was it was never warm enough (late April) to take an outdoor shower- and I love me an outdoor shower! Obviously the weather was NO fault of the owner. We hope to stay there again! 5+ stars Thank you, Mike.

Weekend trip

Fantastic location; loved being right behind the first row of homes, with an easy alley way for access. Very cute and clean. Upfront (and understood) request for linens/blankets/towels may be a bit of a hassle for some, for a short weekend stay.

Closer to the ocean then expected.

Thirty strides from the ocean this place was a JEM!!! Two bath with two showers was ideal for 6 people. Master bed is small but perfect for a couple and the other bedrooms were great . Traded big bedrooms for comfort within the rest of the home. Kitchen , living area and the ocean walks !! Also the owners met us and were wonderful… direct, respectful and helpful! We actually got there while a home was being built next door … hammers going at 8 am sharp. Did not deter in the least from our trip.. we even shared muffins and biscuits from my sons wedding with the crew building the house. !!! 5 Stars

A Beach Oasis

This is our second time staying at this beautiful beach side home and we will be returning year after year. It is truly perfect in every way for our family of 4- can’t beat the location, bike-able to downtown, salt water fishing right around the corner, great running routes, cozy and super clean inside, size and space were just what we needed, great restaurants a short drive away, friendly neighbors, etc etc. My kids were so sad to leave and they are 12 and 14- hard to please ages!!!! Mike is extremely responsive and helpful- which made all the difference. We cannot wait to return next summer.

Exceptional experience!

The house was well-equipped, clean, up-to-date, and beautifully furnished. Be prepared to bring your own sheets/towels - not an issue. I fell in love with the ice maker! (It's those little things that make your day...) There was some construction going on next door during our stay, which got us up earlier in the morning than we would have liked...but it got us onto the beach that much sooner! Which BTW is about 30 yards from the house : ) Overall - a great vacation!

Great property!

This property is pretty close to perfect! The only thing that could improve it would be an ocean view, but with just a few steps you're on the beach! We were there for a week in April and truly enjoyed it. Comfy beds, comfy living room furniture, great open for plan, truly stocked kitchen (Some rentals say they are "stocked" but aren't. This one REALLY is!) Would stay here again without question.

Quite compact and nicely arranged 3 bedroom. Easy 50 yard trot to the beach. Once we knew about bringing your own sheets or ordering from the linen service it was much easier. Good space up front.

BEAUTIFUL HOME AND VACATION SPOT

This home was beautiful! All updated but still holding true to the beach homes of the past. Perfect for sunny days and rainy. We showed up and it was raining but did not matter the home was laid out so everyone could hang out and play games and joke around. My whole family loved it and already started making plans to go back.

Awesome Surf Beach House🏄🏼‍♂️

Excellent location just steps from the beach. Awesome surf beach right in front of house. Riverfront cafe short walk from house was perfect for a quick breakfast. Back bay just a short drive away where you can put paddle boards or kayaks in. Edgar Felix Bike trail (coast to capital trail) in town that should go to Allaire State Park. Unfortunately there is construction at the moment. In-line skating park was also fun for our hockey kids. The roads were way too bumpy for skateboarding though. A quiet town during the week that became very popular on the weekend! All in all great for our family, and we felt safe letting the teenagers ride their bikes around to explore.

Much more than we could’ve imagined!

By the time we were looking for a week long beach rental, everything was booked. We modified our search on VRBO and stumbled upon this gem in Manasquan. We are very familiar with Manasquan and knew the exact location of this rental property which was right on the beach. The pictures on VRBO looked good and the reviews were positive so we decided to go for it even though it was for only 4 nights (we were looking for 7). OMG!! Pictures cannot do this place justice! The high ceilings, open kitchen/living room, and HUGE dining nook, was simply fantastic. The wide hallway leading to the three good sized bedrooms made this place look much larger than we had expected. There’s a half bath in the living room area, a full bath with a beautiful large shower and a cedar shower at the end of the hallway where a back door leads to the beach. We had six people on this trip. Me and my husband, my 85-year-old mother, my brother, and my two teenage sons. Six adults in this property and it was more than comfortable. We even had a rainy day where we were all stuck inside and the living space was so roomy! The kitchen was fully stocked with every utensil you could possibly need. Measuring cups, pots and pans, cutting knives, and a gas stove with hood range. There was a large sized Keurig plus a coffee pot for those who like to brew more than one cup. We had an amazing time in Manasquan and this beach property was perfect for our family. There is no doubt that we will be booking this property next summer and plan to stay for a full week!

Pictures don’t do it justice!

An amazing property! Beautifully redone throughout. The pictures really don’t do it justice. My kids loved the place and didn’t want to leave - they even made some friends in the neighborhood. The owner was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to help make our stay a memorable one. We did a remote school/remote work/beach trip. WiFi supported all of our demands. Great property.

About the host

Hosted by Mike and Tracey

Tracey & I have two kids who have grown up renting summer houses with us. We all love the beach - it is a year-round discussion at our house - when we're going and what friends we're inviting. We also know from years of renting what makes a rental perfect. High-end amenities, and not forgetting anything... you will find that experience with our house.

Why they chose this property

We were looking for a place for ourselves where we could live at the beach, and we equipped the house with all of the amenities and features to made it a comfortable space for friends and their families.

What makes this property unique

One house from the oceanfront. The beach is 30 yards from your back door. What else can you ask for? Undercounter ice machine, indoor/outdoor cedar shower, Central AC, fireplace, internet - just amazing.
