We had a wonderful time. The house was exquisite, met all of our needs. Not just fully stocked, but overstocked. You don’t need to bring anything but yourselves and your luggage. I will definitely stay here again. James was so accommodating… If this house were for sale, I would buy it! Thank you again, James. We had a wonderful time!!!

We had a fantastic stay on Pelican Island! The house and location were perfect. The kitchen was well equipped and very clean. 3 minute drive to restaurants and a grocery store. The Owner was quickly responsive to any questions we had.We were able to catch some crabs with the provided traps right from the backyard!Being right on the bay in the evening was easily the best part!

Lovely stay over Thanksgiving

The house was beautiful. Some of the family stayed in this house, and the rest stayed in a larger house on the north side of Pelican Island (where we had Thanksgiving dinner). This house was perfect for our family!

Great Family Vacation

Great location, great home, really relaxing vibe, everyone was very happy with the place. It was important to have a ground floor bedroom (there were 2) and not many steps to get into property. (There were 3 steps) Cannot fault the place.

AMAZING SUNSETS!!!

Super cute cottage. Sitting out on the water was far and away my favorite. Spacious kitchen, and play room for kids were nice bonuses. Easy check in and check out. Big grass yard for kids to play and lots of parking. Marina is right around the corner for our boat. Will definitely stay again

Ruppert Family

The property was on a stunning piece of land. The rooms were well furnished. The only issue was ants all over the kitchen and a dead mouse in the outside garbage can we had to use.

Response from VrboOwner on 13 May 2025
John, So glad you liked the house.. We were aware of the ant issue and that is not typical. It was explained to us that can happen if it is a rainy spring. So we had the exterminator out just before your stay to remedy the issue. Exterminator explained that the treatment may have driven the ants out of nests and made them more present. So sorry you had to deal with that and I would be happy to make it up to you if you are interested. I reached out to you during your stay to check in and inform you of the exterminator. Jim

Magnificent Home. Wake to the sparkling water outside the dining room. So peaceful. Bedrooms are clean and perfect. House is large enough for everyone to have privacy. Gas grill was great for dinner. Watching the sail boat school fill the bay every day was a feast for the eyes. The swan couple was icing on the cake.Then, for the beach and thrill enthusiasts, we drove 5 minutes to the boardwalk, paid 10 for a day of parking and had a ball. The adults got wristbands to ride all day in the amusement park. On another day we went to the beach. Clean beaches and lots of space. We have been renting on LBI for the last 4 summers. We have already requested to return to this perfect home!!

Amazing views of the bay from almost every room and just 2 mins to ocean!

We enjoyed our stay in this homey rental that provided everything needed for a great stay! Enjoyed sitting on the porch gazing at the water and the delightful breeze from the bay! Hosts were responsive and welcoming. Also enjoyed the convenience of the location - minutes to beach, park, shopping and restaurants. Amenities like beach chairs, umbrella, beach tags, beach towels laundry soap were very much appreciated. Thank you for hosting us!

Amazing family home

Beautiful house in a great location with amazing views!! It was a very clean, comfortable, and well equipped home. 100% felt like we were staying with family. This house offered several areas to spread out and for quiet sleeping. It was so refreshing to stay in one of the remaining original homes on the island. This home has tons of charming character and truly honors the past with craftsmanship now longer found. Very close to Seaside & Toms River with awesome restaurants and shopping close by.

Lovely view

This house was a delight, right on the bay with the best view of the sunset. The rooms were a good size with an open, airy feel. It was very clean and well equipped with just about anything you would need. Four of us stayed the whole time but we had several visitors who enjoyed sitting on the side deck and taking in the view of the bay and the wonderful breeze that was present most of the time. Some of our granddaughters visited us and loved the large raft we tied down so they could just float around. Crabbing, fishing and the boardwalk were favorite activities. A comfortable and enjoyable house for all ages. We highly recommend a stay at this delightful shore home.
