A cozy, comfortable cottage

It's the ideal place for a getaway. Conveniently near the beach (at the end of the block), Main Avenue, and some excellent restaurants. The house was spotless and well-maintained.

Magical Historic Vacation Destination

Ocean Grove is a wonderful family friendly community and it was especially nice to vacation there the week of the 4th of July 2024! The community planned so many delightful special events throughout the week. The cottage was convenient to the beach, attractions, shopping and more. We really enjoyed the outdoor court yard for eating and gathering for family times. The environment was clean and was equipped with everything a guest could possibly need to make a week stay easy and comfortable. One thing that would be helpful is to add outdoor step and shower safety railings for senior guests. The owner, was extremely helpful, addressing all questions and even provided text reminders during our stay. We loved having the courtesy beach badges provided since the highlight of the vacation was the beach for our 10 year. Our family would highly recommend staying at this location and cottage. We left with wonderful memories of a week spent in a magical historic vacation destination that transports one back to gentler Era.

Ocean Grove Idyll

Perfect place to walk to the beach, stroll through the picturesque town, or walk off a great meal in Asbury on the way back. Quiet area with room to sit and play games in the evening. Incredibly clean and well appointed kitchen. Will definitely return!

Cute Cottage

This Ocean Grove cottage is nicely furnished with super comfy beds and couches. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. Ocean Grove is a charming town with a long history as a Methodist prayer camp. We enjoyed our visit.

Ocean Grove Thanksgiving stay

We found this property to be just as listed. Very comfortable and well stocked. The kitchen was bigger than appears from the photos and was very well stocked with everything you might need if you were wanting to cook while you were there. The host was very easy to communicate with and was proactive in letting us know some details about our upcoming stay. Also, the neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful, definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a place to stay in Ocean Grove.

Great place!

Was walkable to everywhere we needed to go (we were in town for a wedding in Asbury Park), in a cute quiet neighborhood. Plenty of space for two couples. The host was very communicative, even despite a weird glitch on the VRBO website that made the online booking and Message Host functions inoperable for several days (host responded promptly to direct emails). Would definitely stay here again!

Very Clean with Very Responsive Owner

This property is an older home, as many are in Ocean Grove, but it has been lovingly maintained and is very clean. We felt very comfortable using the kitchen and lying in the comfortable beds. We were there to visit family during Christmas with an extreme cold spell. (real feel in the negatives) Bill made sure we stayed warm enough but still gave us our privacy. Very professional and caring.

Mid-October mini-vacation

Spent 3 nights at the property. Host was very responsive and was able to accommodate a slight shift in our stay due to an unexpected family member injury. We enjoy our stay and the neighbors were very quiet and mostly friendly. The full bed mattress was a bit less firm than we prefer. The house is a good 10-15 minute walk from main beach/boardwalk but since we didn't have kids or lots of equipment to carry, it was not an issue.

Clean, cozy and comfortable

The house is in a nice, quiet location and we had ample parking right in front of the house our entire stay. We found the home to be very, very clean and included everything we needed for our stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable - we both said we slept better than we had in ages. Having two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor was perfect for us - we never even made it upstairs. Communication with Bill was easy - he is quick to respond and seemed eager to help. In the event of inclement weather, visitors may want to bring a streaming stick with them, just in case. The television channels are limited and the set in the bedroom wasn’t connected to anything so it wasn’t usable. This wasn’t a problem for us as the weather was beautiful for our visit, but if visiting with kids and you find yourselves stuck inside, bringing games or a Roku or Fire stick may be a good idea. Overall, would highly recommend this home based on its cleanliness, comfy beds, location, and ease of the rental process/communication with owner.

Great place to stay! Outdoor shower and secure place to put bikes!

We very much enjoyed our stay at this nice little place. It was clean and well stocked and I loved the outdoor shower (it's the only one I used all weekend!) It's nice to have places to keep our bicycles. We met the owners of the house next door, but not at the property, but by chance inside the sea hear now festival, how random! They invited us over after the show for some great sandwiches. I hope to reserve this place for next year!
