About this property
Family-Friendly Beach Home | Steps to Beach & Bay | Porch, Yard, Garage
This home is ideal for families and groups looking for an easy, comfortable beach stay with space to spread out and everything provided. Located just one block from both the ocean and the bay, the house sits in Brigantine’s quite neighborhood, offering walkable access to the beach, bay, restaurants, shops, and family attractions without the noise and congestion of busier areas.
The home is single-level with only three low steps at the entrance, making it well suited for families with young children, grandparents, and multi-generational groups. Inside, the layout is practical and well-balanced, with rooms spaced for privacy and shared areas designed for gathering. There are three bedrooms and two full indoor bathrooms, plus a seasonal outdoor shower (guest favorite!) available May through October.
Sleeping arrangements are flexible and family-friendly. The primary bedroom has a queen bed and space for a crib. The second bedroom also has a queen bed. The third bedroom includes a twin-over-full bunk bed and a full-size futon. A sleeper sofa in the living room provides additional sleeping space when needed. Two full bathrooms help mornings run smoothly for larger groups.
The living area is comfortable and uncluttered, with ample seating, a Smart Roku TV, soundbar & subwoofer, fast Wi-Fi, board games, and books. A dedicated work area with a sit-to-stand ergonomic desk makes the home suitable for remote work, extended stays, or guests who need reliable connectivity during their trip.
The kitchen is fully stocked for real vacation living. Guests will find cookware, dishes, pantry staples, organic coffee and teas, and everyday essentials. A washer and dryer are perfect for beach days and longer visits. Central air conditioning and heating keeps the home comfortable throughout the summer and winter.
The huge garage functions as both a storage space and a recreation space. It includes a Ping Pong table, beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, and a beach cart. Six beach tags are provided. Beach access is at the end of the street, about a three-minute walk. Bay access and a free public boat slip are also just down the block, making it easy to enjoy both sides of the island.
Outdoor spaces are a highlight. The screened-in porch is shaded and breezy, perfect for morning coffee, family meals, or relaxing in the evenings while listening to the waves. The fenced backyard offers a safe place for children and pets to play. A grill, outdoor seating, and a swing make outdoor time easy and comfortable. The home is maintained with eco-friendly practices throughout. No pesticides are used in the yard. Inside, the home features VOC-free paint, toxin-free detergents, and chemical-free soaps, shampoos, and conditioners. Organic cotton linens and towels are provided.
Parking is simple and convenient with an attached garage and an additional off-street parking space. The neighborhood is quiet and walkable, with access to Brigantine’s farmers market, restaurants, coffee shops, Shark Park for kids, tennis courts, golf course, yoga classes, surf school, art galleries, stores, museum and the marine mammal stranding center. Atlantic City is about ten minutes away for dining, shows, concerts, and events, including the famous Island Water Park at Showboat, which operates year-round ( 10 min drive!)
Well-behaved pets are welcome. One pet is included with approval. Additional pets or extra-large breeds require prior approval. A pet fee ($150) applies and is used for detailed cleaning and laundering between guests. Dog bowls are provided, and a medium-to-large crate can be made available upon request.

Thank you Robert ! Your family was a pleasure to host !
We had a wonderful stay in Brigantine! The house was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. It was just a short walk to the beach, which made our trip even more relaxing. We’d definitely stay here again!
Whale Cottage exceeded our expectations. From the well appointed kitchen to the comfy front porch. We experienced a very comfortable and pleasant stay…we only wish we could have stayed another night or 2…Also, the Cottage is located on the “quieter” North end of Brigantine…which we prefer to the “busier” South end.
We were all very comfortable and the kitchen was set up with All the little incidentals you need to prepare a meal. He would definitely book this home away from home again..
Very clean property close to the beach. There were amenities that you don’t find in other properties. The owner is extremely responsive and wants to make sure your stay is good.

Thank you so much for choosing our home ! We appreciate your kind words and hope to see you again in the future :)
It was our first time in Brigantine and really didn't know what to expect. Found it to be a quiet and friendly little beach town. Cute house with all the amenities anyone could need. It was a quick walk to the beach or bay. The hosts provided lots a little extras and were very guest/customer focused.

Thank you Robyn! We are glad that you enjoyed your first stay in Brigantine and are hoping to host you again in the future!
After looking at the cost of and reviews for hotels in AC we decided to book a place for the whole weekend in Brigantine instead. The home was well-stocked, comfortable, and in a great location. Even though it is off-season, Brigantine is a great town to visit. Restaurants and shops were open, we flew kites on the beach, and even got to watch whales from the seawall. The owners were prompt in addressing a problem we had and it was resolved quickly. We would stay here again.

Thank you for choosing our home! I’m so glad that you had a good time and enjoyed spending time in Brigantine. Seeing whales from the sea wall is a cherry on top ! Wow !
We would be delighted to host you again soon .
We were down for a family trip. Had a great time at the beach, even played some ping pong in the garage. We were there to celebrate a birthday and the owners did a great job putting up decorations and flowers that we requested. The birthday girl was very surprised! We even got to watch fireworks from the beach on July 4. House was clean, comfortable, close to the beach, and the fenced in yard gave our pup plenty of space to run around.
Excellent property. Clean, cozy, close to beach. Anything needed for cooking was there. Large garage and driveway to accommodate our vehicles. Beach supplies, children’s toys and even a perfect adult tricycle to motor around the neighborhood, so much fun. Large fenced in area for our daughter’s little dog. Loved the screened in porch, we ate , read and played games there without worrying about mosquitos or nasty green flies. All around great place for relaxing and forgetting about real life! Our host Olysiea was perfect. Replied back within a few minutes with any questions I had. Also saving me a return 5 hour trip with something we left behind. We really appreciate her kindness. Hopefully be able to return again. Wonderful place.

Thank you so very much for your kind review and we are looking forward to hosting you again in the future !
This property was perfect for our family & Labradoodle, Finny. The home was warm, inviting and well stocked / organized. We appreciated the location being conveniently near restaurants, shopping and a short stroll to the beach. Everything we needed was there, from extra blankets to pots and pans. I loved the yard for the dog, great area to walk and plenty of friendly locals with pups. Our group did a small Christmas and took lots of pictures during our visit. The rooms were spacious and the bathrooms had a great setup for sharing. Beds were comfortable and the decor inside was beachy yet modern. Lastly, the communication from the property owner was phenomenal. Very easy to communicate during booking, before check in and check out. Thank you! We had such a great visit we will be back!
