Comfortable Home, Walking Distance to Beach
Our family had a wonderful stay at this home, a short walk to the beach. It has a well-equipped kitchen and outdoor grill. In addition to the spacious home, the outdoor spaces (front porch & outdoor patio in garden) allowed many comfortable options to enjoy the week. Barb was a great host.

Good stay
Location of this property was awesome! Short walk over the bridge to the beach and restaurants. Comfortable older home for us and our 2 dogs. Enjoyed sitting on the front porch! There are beautiful wild flowers and bushes in the yard but it’s a little overgrown! Owner is very accommodating too!

Very relaxing, no need to drive anywhere. The location was great for walking to the beach and walking to dinner. If you appreciate classic Jersey shore you will enjoy the front porch and charm of the house.

Great Location and Wonderful Host
We had a great time staying at Barbara’s rental. The location was perfect and the accommodations were just what we needed. We were able to walk over to Sea Bright to send time on the beach or grab a bite to eat. We spent time on the front porch and relaxing in the garden. Would def stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Barb O'Donnell

Host profile image
Lived in this neighborhood over twenty-five years, raised two sons and couldn't think of a better place to live. Year round community but close to the beach for surfing (the men) and walking the beach (me).

Why they chose this property

This house is over 100 years old, a little funky, probably not for everybody, but just what a beach house has always been to me. Lots of charm, cozy and comfortable, rocking chairs on the porch to sit with your morning coffee, or evening glass of wine. Available for summer rental or long weekend throughout the year.

What makes this property unique

Although you are very close to the Sea Bright beach, you are in a family neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of the beach town. Kids can ride bikes, go to the playground, or fish in Polly's pond. Walk over the bridge and you're right in the middle of the summer fun, but when you come home, you are away from it all.
