The problem vacationing on LBI is the occasional overflow from the bay at high tide onto many street corners. The water one night came up to the front porch, past the first step. Luckily, it did not rain, or the situation would have been a lot worse. The house was well equipped, but the outdoor shower was not able to be used, and the BBQ grill had issues. But, all in all, it was an enjoyable stay.
