Enjoy a relaxing holiday in our spotless and freshly decorated downstairs’ guest quarters just listed and available for rental for the first time! Our charming beach house is ideally and uniquely located on one of the few LBI streets with beaches on either end.
Park your car and just relax! The island and our side street is only four short blocks wide here; about 14 houses either way from our home, you will find ocean and bay beaches. You choose the beach depending on the day and how you’re feeling! Our immaculate bay beach with its calm waters boasts a lifeguard, playground and pavilion while our life-guarded ocean beach is newly replenished, with plenty of fresh sand to spread out on before jumping into the waves.
If you tire of the sun and surf, take a short stroll to the many shops, restaurants and snack spots nearby or enjoy a pick from our DVD selections. Of course, you can always opt to unwind on the peaceful backyard patio or on the front deck with a bit of shut-eye or a good book from our "beach library", and simply soak up the soothing atmosphere of LBI.
This delightfully roomy two bedroom beach getaway is exceptionally well proportioned for a family of four, or for one or two couples. Why pay to rent more bedrooms than you need? We have thoughtfully decorated our guest residence for your full vacation enjoyment with new carpeting and window treatments, air conditioning and ceiling fans, and beautifully selected furnishings and original artwork throughout.
Enter the front door from the relaxing shady deck with its dining set, restful Adirondack chairs and cooling breezes off the bay and ocean. Your gas grill is located just off your deck, so al fresco dinners are a snap to prepare. The beautifully decorated living area offers plenty of seating for chatting with family and friends, watching the large TV with cable and DVD player (and our own DVD selections for you to choose from), or enjoying a book from our guest library. If you must do work or check e-mail, a Wi-Fi connection is available. The inviting dining area has a table and comfortable seating for four. The cheerful and well-equipped kitchen with its many storage cabinets and separate side entrance opens to the living area so everyone can be together.
The restful master bedroom is features sliding doors that open on to a private and peaceful backyard patio with lounge and loveseat glider reserved for your exclusive use. This attractively appointed bedroom offers a new and very comfy queen size bed, a ceiling fan, very ample drawer space and a nice sized closet for even more storage.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Michelle is a born and bred Jersey girl and proud of it! She has beautiful memories of growing up with family vacations here on LBI. Andrew, originally from rural upstate NY, has married into a family of Jersey Shore lovers and has happily joined the club!
Why the Owner Chose Surf City
Owning a home on LBI, especially in Surf City, is a long time dream for us! We were thrilled to find an attractive property that offered such a fantastic vacation. Surf City is a lovely family oriented community that boasts excellent beaches along with vibrant commerce. Our home on 16th Street is well off the main thoroughfares, yet just a short stroll from both the ocean and bay beaches (a real unique plus) as well as shops and dining. We are delighted to share our home with others who appreciate the beauty of the Jersey Shore. We are especially happy to host many repeat guests who share our love of our wonderful beach getaway!
The Unique Benefits of this House
- Beaches - Being on the beach is a prime activity for us. Most of all however, we enjoy listening to the waves meet the shore on the ocean beach or lap gently on the sand on the bay beach.
- Walks - We enjoy a morning walk along Barnegat and Sunset, taking in the bay views, followed by a right turn and over to Ocean Ave. to enjoy the ocean. We top it off with a stop on the patio to relax on the chaise lounge or glider and listen to the birds.
- Dining out - So many choices and so little time! We happily share our dining recommendations (including the only diner in the US to win the James Beard award, and the best ice cream shop on the island) with our guests.
- Relaxing - Evening chats on the deck, books or DVDs from our collection, gallery hopping in the neighborhood, cooking out on the grill for family and friends.
- Sunsets - Sunsets over the bay beach are an amazing experience. We sit on the benches and just drink it all in.
