About this property

Best Bayfront value on the island.


Our single family bayfront home in desirable Long Beach Island (LBI) NJ is located on a protected cove and dead end street. It has the charm of a beach cottage, yet has the amenities you are looking for... central air conditioning, washer, dryer, dishwasher, microwave, and outdoor shower.

Ship Bottom has now been ranked by nj.com as #9 in the list of the "25 greatest NJ food towns no one knows about" and you can walk to most of them. Also, within walking distance is the beach, swimming bay, playground, miniature golf, bars and convenience store.

If you want to relax, you and your family (friends) can hang out on the deck or the covered ground level space and enjoy being on the water. If you like activity, the water is calmer here for kayaking, paddle boarding, floating, boating, crabbing and fishing. You are welcome to bring your kayaks, wave runners or boat to our dock. The Boatyard (waterfront beer garden) is close enough to get there by boat or kayak.

A few blocks away from the bridge, our home is convenient to the Cedar Bonnet and Mallard Island wedding venues and other smaller wedding places.

Great getaway
Amazing property with views from everywhere in the house. Everything was perfect! From the newest sandpaper waiting for us to extra towels and linens if needed! This will be the property I search for first when looking to have a great getaway again!

Wonderful getaway
We truly enjoyed our stay. It was so easy and relaxing. The house was very clean and it was really nice to be on the bay. Diana is easy to communicate with and accommodating. We didn't have any issues while we were there as everything is kept in good condition and easy to figure out. Would love to go when it's warmer to enjoy the bay a little more but it was very peaceful and serene.

Diana’s Lovely Rental in Ship Bottom, NJ
This property was perfect for our family over the Memorial Day weekend! It’s located right on the bay with a great view. There is a nice ground sitting area to enjoy the outdoors as well as the upper deck. Both very comfortable. The house was very clean and just as described in the listing. The beachy decor is so cute! Furnishings and beds are comfortable and well maintained. Would love to rental again when the occasion arises. Thank you!

Why they chose this property

I have been coming to LBI my whole life. I love the beach but enjoy being out on the bay. There is so much to do: crabbing, waterskiing, wave runners, paddlebaording, kayaking, or just floating on tubes. When this house became available, it has the best of all worlds. Right on the bay and just blocks to the beach. It has all the modern amenities, yet the charm of the older cottages, similar to the one my parents still own.
