This was the 3rd time we stayed at Beach Haven—we love it so much that we have booked again for next season! It is just perfect for our family—large bedrooms, lots of baths, a kitchen to die for, decks to sit on, and so convenient to the beach we love to sit on! Couldn’t ask for more!

Wonderful!!!!!! From the easy check-in ,to the well appointed kitchen we wanted to stay 2 more weeks. The house was lovely and immaculate and the bedrooms were large and spacious. The entire family agreed it was a perfect week. After the little ones were asleep you could find the adults on the second floor porch overlooking the ocean. The location allowed us to get the beach quickly as it is only one block away. This home is a real gem in the quiet community of Ocean Grove and we are all hoping to get back there soon.

Great days in Ocean Grove

My wife and I and our four children two daughter in laws and two grand children had a wonderful time celebrating four birthdays. The house is beautiful with a kitchen and dining room able to accommodate the ten of us. The location close to beach was great for the two year old grand children. Our stay exceeded our expectations.

The property exceeded our expectations. It is absolutely stunning with gorgeous views. We were able to comfortably host family and friends. The entire house is well stocked and feels like a home away from home. The owners were quick to respond to any inquiries. This was our favorite vacation rental. Would definitely stay again.

Family Vacation

This property is in a great location 2 blocks from the beach and a block over from main street. Bedrooms were cozy and spacious, you could see the ocean from the top porch. The kitchen was so well equipped for cooking dinner each night. Linens and towels were well stocked. They had lots of chairs/ extra beach towels and a wagon to pull down to the beach. I highly recommend this property to for family vacations, couples trips etc. Thanks for a great stay!

Great house

This was my family's second stay and it was great. The house is large enough and has enough large common spaces for a huge group to spread out and have some privacy. We LOVE the two large porches and how much fridge space there is here. One downside was that the grill feels small, like a camp / tail gate kind of grill and wasn't cleaned well in between renters. Luckily the stovetop / oven is large so it didn't hinder us at all.

Fantastic house near beach for families or groups

Booked house for a family get together and could not have been happier with our choice. The bedrooms are all large and spaced out well across the top two floors - master BR is fantastic. Plenty of bathrooms for everyone. Great entertaining space - tv/rec room with deck/ocean views upstairs and a big and more then well stocked kitchen with dining room and living room downstairs. Already talking about when we can get back again. Owner was very responsive and helpful.

Amazing time at the beach!

We had a three-generation family of 10 stay in Ocean Grove for a week and we took advantage of every aspect of the house. We’ve spent much time in OG and it is truly rare to have such a beautiful old house that is fully upgraded - AC, modern kitchen and bathrooms - and as spacious. The location can’t be beat - one block from the beach, two blocks from Main Street with a beautiful view of the ocean and other flower-lined yards down the street. Everyone loved the big kitchen, plus a dining table large enough to accommodate all of us and then some. We spent ample hours in the afternoon on the porches, enjoying the breeze and quiet. Every bed was comfortable, bathroom convenient, kitchen cabinet stocked. And plenty of beach gear! Thanks for a great stay. We’ll be back!

About the host

Hosted by Janet Bustrin

Host profile image
We have always loved the Victorian homes of Ocean Grove. We find the combination of the quiet charm of Ocean Grove next to the vibrancy and excitement of the restaurants, shops, galleries, and night spots of Asbury Park the perfect combination. Having a beach house just an hour away from our home in South Orange, New Jersey is ideal. We always look forward to spending time at the beach and sharing it with you!

Why they chose this property

We like the scale of the house. Its rooms are large and spacious. Being a block off the beach is important to us. We love to cook and entertain, so having the recently renovated gourmet kitchen is exactly what we needed. Because the house is on a corner lot, the rooms are full of light. With two large porches we knew this would be a great place to enjoy family and friends.

What makes this property unique

The large 2nd floor family room with its wet bar and direct access to the 2nd floor porch makes a terrific central gathering point. Perfect for watching a movie or sporting event or a game of foosball. The large master bedroom is full of morning light and has a great view of the sunrise over the ocean. The front porch is the perfect place to sit, read a book or share a beverage with family and friends as the sights and sounds of Ocean Grove pass by.
