Charming, Clean, Pet-Friendly Cottage in the Heart of Ocean Grove

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely Ocean Grove cottage. The space was clean, well-equipped, and surprisingly roomy for a cottage. It's located close to the main entrance of town, but since Ocean Grove is only a square mile, everything—from the beach to shops and restaurants—is an easy walk away. As former homeowners here, we're very familiar with the charm and historic character of this special town, and this cottage fit right in. One of the best parts was that it's pet-friendly, so we were able to bring our dog along for the trip. Check-in and check-out were smooth and hassle-free. We would absolutely stay here again!

Another lovely stay

This was our second stay at this charming cottage. The house is clean and has everything needed for a comfortable visit. We opted to have the linens provided and were delighted to see the beds were made when we arrived. The location is quiet and it’s quick to everything in Ocean Grove. And Bill is a wonderful host - impeccable communication and very easy to work with. Highly recommend.

Perfect little cottage

Great location within walking distance to the beach and town. Quiet neighborhood perfect for walking around to see the gardens and architecture. Wide beaches with a jetty that spouts water high into the air. Free parking at the beach. Plenty of benches and bathrooms on promenade/ boardwalk. Loved the homey cottage which had everything we needed. I will choose it again.

A cozy, comfortable cottage

It's the ideal place for a getaway. Conveniently near the beach (at the end of the block), Main Avenue, and some excellent restaurants. The house was spotless and well-maintained.

Magical Historic Vacation Destination

Ocean Grove is a wonderful family friendly community and it was especially nice to vacation there the week of the 4th of July 2024! The community planned so many delightful special events throughout the week. The cottage was convenient to the beach, attractions, shopping and more. We really enjoyed the outdoor court yard for eating and gathering for family times. The environment was clean and was equipped with everything a guest could possibly need to make a week stay easy and comfortable. One thing that would be helpful is to add outdoor step and shower safety railings for senior guests. The owner, was extremely helpful, addressing all questions and even provided text reminders during our stay. We loved having the courtesy beach badges provided since the highlight of the vacation was the beach for our 10 year. Our family would highly recommend staying at this location and cottage. We left with wonderful memories of a week spent in a magical historic vacation destination that transports one back to gentler Era.

Perfect place to walk to the beach, stroll through the picturesque town, or walk off a great meal in Asbury on the way back. Quiet area with room to sit and play games in the evening. Incredibly clean and well appointed kitchen. Will definitely return!

Ocean Grove Thanksgiving stay

We found this property to be just as listed. Very comfortable and well stocked. The kitchen was bigger than appears from the photos and was very well stocked with everything you might need if you were wanting to cook while you were there. The host was very easy to communicate with and was proactive in letting us know some details about our upcoming stay. Also, the neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful, definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a place to stay in Ocean Grove.

Great place!

Was walkable to everywhere we needed to go (we were in town for a wedding in Asbury Park), in a cute quiet neighborhood. Plenty of space for two couples. The host was very communicative, even despite a weird glitch on the VRBO website that made the online booking and Message Host functions inoperable for several days (host responded promptly to direct emails). Would definitely stay here again!

Very Clean with Very Responsive Owner

This property is an older home, as many are in Ocean Grove, but it has been lovingly maintained and is very clean. We felt very comfortable using the kitchen and lying in the comfortable beds. We were there to visit family during Christmas with an extreme cold spell. (real feel in the negatives) Bill made sure we stayed warm enough but still gave us our privacy. Very professional and caring.

Mid-October mini-vacation

Spent 3 nights at the property. Host was very responsive and was able to accommodate a slight shift in our stay due to an unexpected family member injury. We enjoy our stay and the neighbors were very quiet and mostly friendly. The full bed mattress was a bit less firm than we prefer. The house is a good 10-15 minute walk from main beach/boardwalk but since we didn't have kids or lots of equipment to carry, it was not an issue.
