Fantastic Home! Five Star Rating! Steps to Beach (see video). Centrally Located.

Welcome to our beachside vacation home! This house has beautiful ocean views, with beach access right across the street and a great location, not too far from the bridge, and an easy bike ride to Ship Bottom or down to Beach Haven! You can also walk to one of the best donut and coffee spots on the island! We hope you'll come and stay with us this summer.
Main level: Come gather in the updated and fully equipped kitchen, with seating and supplies for up to 10 people. The kitchen opens to the family room, with a wrap around sofa, ocean view deck, and a gas fireplace for chilly nights. (The sofa has a very comfortable king sized pull out sleeper for extra guests.)
Exhausted after a long day out on the sand? Watch a movie or DVD on the 60 in family room TV . Also on the main level is a bedroom with queen bed, bathroom with tub shower, laundry room with ironing board (we will leave you some soap to get started), and another bathroom.
Upstairs: Three more bedrooms, a den and two bathrooms. The master bedroom with an on-suite bath has a queen bed and breathtaking ocean views with access to the upper level deck. The second bedroom has sweeping views and a slider out to the upper level deck. This room is equipped with a pull-out queen sized sleeper, so it could also double as a second family room with a second gas fireplace. Please take any books you find on the shelving unit to enjoy!Card games and board games are found in the unit for the occasional rainy day. The third bedroom has twin beds and is next to a full hall bath. Also upstairs is a small den, with a loveseat. Great sleeping options for kids who want their own space.The den has a desk and wireless printer for the unfortunate guests who have to work while at the beach.
Lower level: The entry is on the lower level, where you will find 10 beach badges and a collection of beach supplies, including chairs, umbrellas, and sand toys. The north garage is set up for an extra hangout space, with drinks from the garage refrigerator, wall hung tv screen for gaming and a shuffleboard table.
Outside: After a day at the beach, chill out on the back patio. Gas grill, table and umbrella and outdoor shower ( truly great) are ready for your use. There's even a small, bathroom off the back of garage with a slop sink.(Just in case you catch some fish). The backyard has a clothesline to air out those sandy shorts! Into cycling? Ocean Boulevard is light on traffic and fantastic for a ride down the island. The garage has two rechargeable battery operated lanterns with built in phone chargers just in case the weather turns.
Parking: Off street parking for 5 cars.
More cool stuff: The whole house has high speed wifi and each bedroom is equipped with a flat screen TV. Sign in to your Netflix account or other streaming services. There is an elevator that's great to help bring your stuff up from the car to the main and upper levels. (The elevator cannot accommodate a full sized wheelchair on each level.) Also included: Central A/C, a central vac system for easy sand clean up, ceiling fans in bedroom, highchair, air fryer and Keurig, Mr. Coffee and French press for the coffee lovers.
We hope you'll love our home as much as we do! Guests are asked to bring their own sheets and towels. Blankets and pillows provided.
************In order to do deep cleaning we ask our guests to check out at 10:30am and check in at 3pm. Thank you. **************

Family Vacation
We had a wonderful time. Very nice house. Very clean and wonderful location The neighborhood was very quiet and low traffic since we had 3 grandkids making the beach trips with us. Just surprised that there was only 2 queen size beds for 6 adults since we needed 3. A pullout Queen we know doesn't do the job . not comfortable at all. Our mistake. Otherwise a wonderful stay. Thank you for helping us create family memories!

Multigenerational family reunion
Our stay at Grace and John's place was wonderful. It was everything described and more. Attention to details regarding all of the little things were so appreciated. Special attention to the little ones' needs were an added plus, for example, age appropriate cups and sand toys. We can't wait to go back. It was so wonderful to be surrounded by family in a comfortable beach accessible location. Thank you John and Grace for your hospiality and responsiveness. Virtual hugs, Yasmine

Beach House Haven
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful beach house located right across from the entrance. The house was perfect for my family with two tiny babies. We rented baby equipment and it was arranged to be set up with the owner before we even got there! There are beach chairs, umbrellas and a wagon to use which was perfect and plenty of sand toys and even mini pools for my toddler! I had not realized we had to provide our own sheets and towels though. This is my very first rental that that was my responsibility. Luckily if you do not want to lug all that additional linens and towels you can rent them on the island which we ended up doing and also worked out seamlessly just like the baby equipment. We had a great stay! Also, very easy to communicate with John the host! Thank you!

We will be back---grandchildren in tow!

Perfect beach house!
We just had an idyllic two weeks at this perfect beach house! John and Grace are excellent hosts- kind and responsive. They provide all the detailed information we could have hoped for for the house and the area, plus more! Their house is neat as a pin, extremely clean, very we stocked, and literally perfectly located! The sand is steps away, the ocean can be heard from the first floor deck, (and open windows on glorious late summer days) and can be seen from the upstairs deck and East facing windows! Everything is thought of and provided. And, everything is in excellent working order and condition. The central a/c is powerful and quiet, and the wifi is lightening fast, we both worked while we were there, and there was never a moment’s problem or interruption. We’ve already booked for next summer, and can not wait to return!

Great beach house!
Great house in a great location. The house was clean and had plenty of space for our family. The owners supplied more than enough beach equipment, including chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and a buggy to help carry it all to the beach. They have obviously taken great pride in the property.

Property was very clean and well positioned to the water. John (owner) was very responsive and genuinely cared to ensure we had a good time. Plenty of space if you need to let the kids have their own area. Also a nice balcony to kick back after a long day at the beach.

Great property and great location!
For starters, the owners John and Grace were very accommodating and checked in with us when we got there to make sure everything was ok. The location is excellent! Right on Ocean Ave with easy access to the beach. If you like to cook, the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need including an excellent knife set which we rarely encounter. The layout of the kitchen is extremely user friendly and includes a huge sink. Central air conditioning is fabulous! The beds are all comfortable- my wife and I had the master bedroom with the queen and my back was fine the entire stay (I mention this because we have rented some awesome houses but refused to go back simply because the mattresses were poor quality). Plenty of off street parking. Lots of hoses set up outside to wash sand off before going inside. A central vac system making it very easy to clean up if you do get any sand inside (including a dust pan feature). Very well-built house- thoughtful design layout. I was skeptical of the bbq from the online photo (being a weber grill guy), but the natural gas grill is phenomenal! The elevator also made it very easy to load/unload our stuff. Very clean house - we all felt very comfortable there!

Awesome place to relax and enjoy the beach
This property has everything you and your family could need for a beach vacation. The owners, Grace and John, are wonderful people, they have thought of everything. We had 4 generations enjoy this lovely home, the youngest is 15 months and the oldest 73. The location is steps from the beach, the views are fabulous. The elevator was a godsend for my mom. We truly enjoyed our week in LBI, we will definitely be returning.

House is amazing, clean, airy, spacious, across the street from the beach unbeatable spot
What a wonderful stay. John was unbelievably accommodating and easy to communicate with. He left a detailed discription of the house, contacts, WiFi instructions etc. which were very helpful. The house is beautiful with plenty of room. It was clean, welcoming, and just overall an inviting place to stay for the week. Best place we’ve ever stayed in the last 7 years on LBI. I’m so glad I searched for the house this year and found this gem. You can count on this being our new home for a week for years to come! Thank You John and Grace for a wonderful experience!! The central vac is on my Christmas list!

Beautiful house & great location
We were lucky enough to rent this house over Memorial Day Weekend. The house Is modern, tastefully decorated and located directly across from the beach. We had 4 adults and 3 kids in the house and never felt we were on top of each other at all. From the upper deck you can see the ocean and hear the waves. The owners John and Grace were lovely and attended to our every need and question. I would highly recommend this house to anyone.... just don’t pick the week we want because we will definitely be returning :)
