About this property
Cottage on the Beach
Charming beach cottage located right on the water with direct access to beach crossing and endless stunning views of the Delaware Bay. Spacious open floor plan with plenty of sunshine and room to relax. Features full screened in porch with open decks on the front and back of the cottage. Great space to hang out in the evening, listen to the waves and enjoy a cold cocktail.
Convenient location for anyone who loves the beach - this cottage is best enjoyed outdoors. If you love the beach, hanging on the deck, and using the outside shower - this cottage is for you! If you are looking for a new home decorated with Pottery Barn, it is down the street.
Plenty of off-street parking.
New in 2022, central air conditioning added to the entire cottage.
New in 2023, two brand new decks on the front and back and a new outdoor shower.

About the host
Hosted by The Lawsons
This is a family owned cottage that we stay in when we do not rent it during the season. The cottage is "well loved" and great for families looking to chill out at the beach, read a book, or enjoy appetizers on the porch. The cottage is not huge, perfect size for a family of 6-8 people. It has one bathroom so that is always a pinch point. But you can't beat the access...we are right at the edge of the dune. 30 seconds and you're at the water's edge.
