Weekend getaway

This property looks just like the pictures and was easy to find. It is a quick drive or walk to Sandy hook and the shoreline. The house was clean and comfortable.

Beautiful Views All Around

We stayed for a weekend at this gorgeous home right on the water. The home is warm and very inviting. Gary was a wonderful host and very responsive to any questions that we had. There are many restaurants within walking distance and Sandy Hook is a short drive away! We plan to come back again soon!

Fantastic views

We (my husband, my adult children and I) stayed for the weekend for my nephew's wedding in the area. The house was clean and had a lot of room to spread out. The weather was not the best so we were unable to enjoy the outside space, but what a view! We would definitely stay there again. We truly enjoyed the house.

Long weekend by the water

I had been looking forward to this long end of summer weekend by the water and our visit did not disappoint! The house was just as advertised, clean and included everything you could possibly want. The views were amazing, and location easy to get to bars and restaurants. Host were responsive, really just a great stay and we can’t wait to go back!

Highlands

Host was very responsive. House was equipped with essential items. I would recommend cleaning bedroom carpets, replacing the metal mini blinds, replacing living room couch & replacing front door handle (lock gets stuck). We did have to park on the street a few times as there weren’t any spots left in the two parking lots.

Better than pictured!

I’ve never stayed in a rental property where the reality exceeded the photos. This is the first one. We really enjoyed our weekend at the shore. So close to Sandy Hook we could ride our bikes over the bridge and down to the shore.
