I was in NY to visit family and attend a wedding. The recommended hotel was pricey and drab so I searched surrounding towns nearby for air b&bs, and I am so happy I found this cute little cottage and town! The host was extremely responsive and thought of everything to equip the home with to make the stay enjoyable and safe. Sylvan beach is such a cute little town! We enjoyed every minute of this trip from the provided kayaks, vintage amusement park, clean beach with stunning sunsets, live music, unique boutiques, and delicious food all within walking distance from the cottage. We will definitely be back! Thank you for making a drab trip so memorable!

We were in and out a lot. Due to planning burial and celebration of my husband.

It was a cozy cottage that met our needs. Decorated nicely. Everyone loved the comforters.

Girls trip

This little cottage was perfect for our girls trip stay! It was cute and clean. It was close enough to the beach and restaurants for us to walk. The kitchen had all supplies needed in it which was so convenient so we didn’t need to pack or buy things for 2 days. We would definitely stay again!
