Beautiful home with lots of history! Fully equipped kitchen with a double stove and tons of pots/pans/dishes/glasses etc! All the beds were comfy and cozy! We loved the gas fireplaces! Our family of 9 had a wonderful stay!
The location of this house is so perfect. Convenient to Asbury Park boardwalk, beach and downtown shopping. The house had tones of space and comfortable beds. The wrap around porch was fantastic. Would stay here again.
House was amazing- just as advertised. We had an extended family of 9 here and had the best week! Talk about a prime piece of real estate, with driveway/garage and even a back patio in an area where that is very rare.
We stayed a week at this house over Fourth of July. It was a big family gathering — 7 adults and 5 kids. The house was perfect! Amazing Victorian with tons of details and antiques, a lovely porch, every kitchen item one could need, one block from the beach, super close to Days ice cream, and access to a beach locker with chairs, boogie boards and umbrellas so we didn’t have to schlep everything! Love Ocean Grove, will definitely be coming back.
This wonderful historic house right next to the main square was ideal for our family gathering. Plenty of room for visiting with each other, and a great kitchen for preparing meals together. Easy walk to the beach and Asbury Park.
My family and I traveled to Ocean Grove for a funeral. Although the occasion was sad, we loved our accommodations and appreciated our gracious property manager Dominic. We would definitely return for a happier occasion, thank you.
This home is absolutely gorgeous and provided the perfect backdrop for our wedding party and out of town friends to stay during the weekend. Would absolutely stay here again!

Thanks Chris! So happy we were able to be a part of your special weekend. Hope to see you again.
This place was awesome! its a beautiful house in a beautiful location and a peaceful getaway yet the children had a great time especially with the porch swing, we all enjoyed that.
6 bedrooms with lots of beds so we could spread out. Fabulous wrap around porch and back courtyard for private outdoor dining. The grill worked well. New refrigerator, impressive oven. Locker right on the beach with chairs, umbrellas and toys. One umbrella broke; the property manager appeared within a half hour with a new one. It would be helpful if the 6 bikes could be filled with air before the visit. Luckily we brought our own pump. Charming house!
Incredible home. A piece of history that is as beautiful as it is comfortable. Accommodating and amenity filled. Management team was a dream to work with, easy check in/out and great communication.
This house is perfect for a family beach vacation. Great indoor and outdoor space; we spent a lot of time on the porch and the back patio. Having an outdoor shower, beach lockers, and a driveway were all added benefits!
This house is absolutely stunning. It is spacious, clean and charming The location is perfect, just a few blocks to OG, Asbury and the beach. We even watched the sunrise from the porch.
The host responded immediately when we had questions.
We loved our time there and hope to return soon.
This home is well modernized yet maintains its historic charm. Excellent location -- a short walk to the beach, Asbury Park attractions, and 'downtown' Ocean Grove (which has a very different character from Asbury). Perfect spot to take advantage of all the area has to offer. The property manager was very responsive and helpful.

Meghann, Was a pleasure hosting you. We hope to see you again.
Perfect place to stay for our group of 7 friends !! We all met in NJ many, many years ago and this house was the perfect, clean, comfortable and well equipped location to “catch up”… quiet location, easy walk to town and Asbury Park… would definitely recommend and return.

Thanks Diane, it was a pleasure hosting you and the gals.
We rented this house as a family when my son was getting married in Asbury Park. This house was a fantastic choice and so much room for everyone. The house itself is like staying in a historical museum, every architectural detail more gorgeous and interesting than the next. The wrap around front porch, the backyard patio gave everyone enough room to spread out and no feel crowded. The bedrooms where spacious and bathrooms were beautiful. Everyone who stopped by for the wedding were amazed at the historical aspect of the house. If you looking for a beautiful, clean and interesting house that is not your cookie cutter rental I would highly recommend!!
Clean home, easy access, great communication with manager
Only thing that could have improved our stay was warmer weather. House had all we needed and more.
