10/10 Excelente

The camp cottage is fantastic and beautifully renovated. Perfect location by park and pavillion!

The location is ideal for a relaxing and fun vacation. The cottage is wonderful, with well-planned renovations and a great location 1 block away from the river. The historical house has central AC, modern appliances and new floors. Very clean throughout and well furnished kitchen (with dish washer). Porch is shaded and relaxing. There's a fenced-in side yard, which is great for kids to play outside. There is a smart TV for kids after sailing, crabbing and fishing at the nearby Island Heights pavillion. My son brought his Xbox and enjoyed the big screen TV at night. We stayed at the cottage 2 separate times this summer, and the kids loved it! It was helpful to have linens furnished. Towels are new and plush. Bathroom has a good shower and tub. There also are beach towels, beach chairs and board games. Upstairs has a desk, which I used to work on my laptop while my son was at sailing camp. The owners have a binder of helpful info on sights to see and recommended restaurants. Be sure to check out the picture book of the renovations, which the owners carefully and personally undertook to the joy of the community. For the reasonable rental price I was expecting a rustic house, and nothing is further from the truth. I was thrilled with the modern and comfortable vacation home and look forward to returning next summer.

Wow! thanks Laurie for the incredible review! Was so happy that you and your son (and his friend) enjoyed the house while he was in the sailing program - you've really made our day :) So happy you could enjoy every moment and glad you enjoyed teaching him how to boil crabs too! Lifelong memories... , we are very much looking forward to your stay next time around.

A welcoming place to call home

If you enjoy all the nuances of staying in a historic home, this is the place to be. The woodwork, ceilings and stairs are beautifully restored. The new front door and windows fit perfectly. It’s sweetly decorated. Bathroom downstairs has all you need and the kitchen is inviting to hang out and cook. Queen bedroom is cozy and bright, the second bedroom has a trundle bed suitable for small children. The location is on a sometimes busy street weekdays but so close to the Toms River with its boardwalk and gazebo, fun watching all that crabbing, Bay and the beaches. Beth and Brian are super friendly and responsive. Front porch great for coffee, side yard with table and chairs. Nice gas BBQ. All you need!

This is a lovely house situated in a lovely area and only a couple of minute's walk to the lake, a nice quiet area. The house has everything you need, the bathroom is downstairs but wasn't a problem for us, overall I would highly recommend this property.

Right at home....

Our family stayed for 4 nights in August 2018 - visiting family nearby. Our children (9, 11) felt immediately comfortable in this beautiful home. They literally had everything you could possibly need during your stay. Never did I think "I wish they had ....". Cannot recommend enough - we will definitely be back. 10 stars if possible!!

Quaint and cozy

This cottage is amazing and the owners just the same. My sister and I chose this cottage for a stay near Tom's River due to a death in the family. From the moment we walked in and smelled the soothing scent of natural wood and the cozy layout of the cottage we knew we would be nothing short of comfortable as if it were our home. When we stepped into the kitchen and saw the bottle of wine and chocolates, well what can I say!!! How did they know us so well? The sign hanging in the kitchen, "Adventure awaits" spoke volumes of the journey we would be begin as we unraveled the life of our estranged uncle and prepared to lay him to rest. Each day was very challenging for us to say the least, but we had the comfort of the cottage at the end of each day to save our sanity and cloak us in warmth as we sat by the fireplace and contemplated our journey through the experience. This place has everything you need, including attentive owners nearby who graciously showed us how to use the fireplace and accommodated our request for an extension of our stay.The beds are super comfortable and the entire home immaculate. If we are ever in that area again, I wouldn't consider any place other then the little red cottage in Island Heights! Barbara and Cara

The perfect beach rental

This property and the owners were absolutely fantastic. We booked this property as a last minute, end of the summer getaway, and it was perfect for our family of 5. We were pleasantly surprised from the first minute that we arrived, from a bottle of much needed wine waiting, to a personalized greeting, as well as coffee for the coffee machine. Beth has everything you could need and has thought of every little thing, and it was a refreshing and much appreciated change from the typical vacation rental. The fact that there were beach toys for the kids to use as well as a beach umbrella shows how attentive and thoughtful the owners are. Our children loved the house and loved that they had Netflix on the TV at night and a supply of board games to play as well. The house itself is beautiful, and impeccably clean. Having a 200+ year old house ourselves, we sincerely appreciate this cottage and know how much hard work and time has gone into making it what it is today. We loved the book showing the restoration process! The owners have perfectly recreated the historic beach cottage feel, and the house has a quaint, yet rugged sophistication to it that really made us feel at home. The creak to the screen door and the squeak to the staircase were soothing to the soul. (That’s not a complaint, please leave the creak and the squeak.) The front porch is great for relaxing at night and everyone in the town seemed very friendly, and the town is very quiet. You couldn’t ask for a better location, as it is one block from the water and boardwalk along the river/bay, and only a 15-minute drive to the closest beach. Almost every store that you could need is less than 10 minutes away from the house. Beth is a great host, replied to every question very promptly, and was courteous and honest. For only being a 4-day vacation, this is one of the best we’ve had, and we surely will be staying here again. Thanks so much! Jesse and Amy (and kids)

We had a lovely time

The hosts (Beth + Brian) were extremely hospitable. Welcoming notes and clear communication quickly helped for us to feel comfortable in this lovely home. It is a small house. There were four of us, 3 adults and one child. It would be a tight fit for a larger party. That said, it is a well maintained home and we did not lack for comfort. The area is cute with a pretty bay within a block. Although not on the coast, the drive was an easy 15 minutes to Long Beach State Park which is the nicest beach in NJ. For the price that we paid and the comfort + convenience of this home, we could not have been more pleased. Thank you Beth and Brian

Thank you Lionel for the great review - we are so happy that your family enjoyed the house - Yes the house is a traditional river cottage, that sleeps 4 comfortably. :) All of the houses along the river were this size originally, and we've retained the traditional footprint and square footage to keep it historically authentic. We are 1 block from the river, but just far enough away from all the hustle and bustle of the beach traffic. Keeps it nice, quiet and relaxing for our guests. Please come again!

Perfect little getaway

Beth and Brian were the perfect behind the scenes hosts for this beautiful little historic cottage lovingly restored. The home is gorgeous and well appointed with all the basics, from a well supplied kitchen to an outdoor grill to easy internet and a cozy front porch! Our hosts' personal touches made us feel right at home. You can walk to lots of fun local sites, including the docks on the river where one can stroll the boardwalk, fish or go crabbing, and a couple of local art galleries. The beach is a five to ten minute drive away. It was the perfect antidote to our frenetic lifestyle to retreat here and breathe! Thank you guys so much for a wonderful time!

Cute house at the shore!

We had a great time at the "Quaint Historic Camp Meeting Cottage". The cottage was impeccably clean and the owners were awesome and responsive. We were able to use the beach toys, beach umbrella and beach towels. The owner even left a bottle of wine for us! There were very nice areas to walk to and the café nearby served homey nice food as well. This was a very convenient launching place for visiting family in Point Pleasant Beach (reachable by back roads) where we were visting family. My only caveat is that the stairs up to the house and - in the house - up to the two bedrooms are quite narrow amd steep. Five star rating to owners!!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review Daphne! Yes, the house sits high and dry on the bluff which is a huge bonus for being close to the water :) Also, it does retain it's original 1880's architecture with the traditional shore cottage staircase that was abundant in those days! Glad you enjoyed your stay :)

Our vacation in the cottage was wonderful!

Our family had a wonderful vacation in the beautifully restored historic cottage. We spent our days on the beach of Island Beach State Park which is a short drive away. Island Heights has a lovely boardwalk along the Toms River where we enjoyed evening walks while my daughters ran getting ready for their fall athletics. The cottage is truly a gem! We had everything we needed...great WiFi, comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, 2 TVs, and even games, books, and a piano. We loved sitting on the porch with our coffee in the morning and wine/beer in the evenings. Beth and Brian are great hosts who provided us all the information we needed to check ourselves in and also left a binder with everything we may need to know about the house, neighborhood, and restaurants. They checked in via VRBO to make sure we had everything we needed and to let us know they were there if we needed anything. Our vacation in the cottage was perfect! We are definitely looking forward to returning.
