We had an amazing time here. The house is so peaceful, and overlooks a nature preserve, so even when we weren't on the beach we felt relaxed. (There were lots of butterflies outside, both by the back seating area, and also on the walk to the beach). We loved that we could bring our dog, and having sheets, towels, beach tags, and beach equipment provided made everything stress free. Marilyn was super responsive to communication, and provided a cheat sheet for all the things we should know while we stayed there.
We've never been to Brigantine Beach before, but it is definitely a hidden gem. The house has quick access to two different paths to the beach--with one being closer to the surfing section of the beach for days that we wanted to paddleboard. We couldn't believe how few people were at the beach, which added to the luxurious feel of the trip.
We also liked that the guest room is on the first floor of the house, with a bathroom right next to it, so that when my parents stayed for a few nights they (and we) felt like they had their own space.
This is kind of a silly thing, but I also loved that the house's fridge had a water and ice machine.
A wonderful getaway!
