We needed a place to stay for one evening while attending my granddaughter‘s graduation party. The house was perfect for myself and family. The host was in touch and very helpful. I would stay again.
Planned a fun girls overnight getaway May 2025. Communication was easy and the home was lovely! Very spacious and we loved the multiple outside decks. Looking forward to another visit in the near future.

Terrific home, great location, great value
Ken's home was great; clean, up to date, everything as described, and very, very comfortable. Terrific location; easy to get to main road (route 72) to Long Beach Island.
Ken was communicative, friendly, and made us feel very comfortable.
Would definitely stay here, again.

This was a perfect location to celebrate a birthday. Right on the lagoon, and close to beach. The neighborhood was extremely quiet so we were able to enjoy family time on one of the many porches. Host were very easy to get ahold of if needed. The house was clean and very open.

Very clean, beautiful home with awesome amenities. Very comfortable and accommodating.
My wife and boys had a great time. The house was beautiful, lots of amenities, very comfortable and accommodating. Lots of space for family time, and plenty of spots for one while reading a book. The owner was excellent, quick with responses to questions, and we said we can’t wait until we return. Excellent time!!!

We had a great family gathering in this beautiful house. Everything was as stated, great open layout with lots of seating. Fantastic lagoon views from back deck and beautiful marsh views from front deck. Quiet neighborhood with lovely homes. Close to LBI beaches and restaurants. We will definitely be back! Thanks, Ken

Beautiful place on the water
Great view from the deck! Close to the beach, nice neighborhood! Kenneth was great to work with- got back to me within a couple of hours with any questions I had leading up to our stay. It was a girls trip and we all had so much fun! It was our first home away experience and it was a good one! Thanks!

Hi Ember,
So happy to hear that our home suited the needs for your girls' trip. I hope you had lots of fun.

The house was so pleasant and beautifully decorated. There was room for plenty of people to sleep. We entertained using the BBQ and the kitchen. There is seating at the bar area and kitchen table. It was perfect. There were so many ways to hang outside.. back and front balconies, the dock… I would love to go back for a longer stay
Kenneth was very responsive and accommodating as this was my wedding weekend and he made sure this part of the weekend was stress free. The property is everything you want from a shore house experience. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed our stay and everything was as stated in the description. Only change was a Keurig Machine for coffee rather than a coffee pot but we are a fan of Keurig. The owner was very accommodating allowing us to check in early on Friday in order to attend a afternoon cocktail get together on Friday.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Kenneth, the owner, always responded to our email inquiries in a timely fashion and was very accommodating to our needs. Good location -- it is a Lovely home. We would definitely rent this property again.

Great Home
Spacious home with great beds, slept like a dream! This home was up to date with modern appliances. The decor was simple and clean which was easy on the eye and no clutter. Easy access keypad. Looks newly renovated and may still be adding to their inventory of amenities. Suggest inquiring for particular items if your planning on doing extensive cooking and such. Great hot water, no problems taking showers with all the girls. Would love to stay again.

Hi Margaret,
Thank you for reviewing our home. So glad you enjoyed your time there and thank you for the suggestions. We welcome you back.
~Ken~
We found this home to be spacious, comfortable, and clean. Having breakfast on the deck overlooking the quiet canal was a pleasant way to start the day. We spent our days at the beach, and it was an easy drive - sometimes a bit of traffic, but the distance is short enough that we never felt that to be much of an inconvenience.
The kitchen is not overly well equipped. We kept or cooking fairly simply, and found for that the only thing really lacking was a couple of cutting boards.
Bring your own beach towels, or do as we did and buy $3 towels at the nearby Walmart.

Wedding stay
Pictures looked great, but they must have been taken ages ago. the property was worn and in great need of an update.
There were no garbage bags and it took 6 hrs for the owner to leave me a message.
There was dirty bedding laundry in two of the the closets.
Everything was as listed. I didn’t give in a 5 because there is only a couch which fits 4 people. The living room has no chairs. So if you have more than 4 people , we are sitting at the counter trying to watch TV (football). No dish towels in the kitchen. The heat downstairs is not good. Very chilly. I would suggest renting only in the warm months.
