This is first floor living. There are few entry stairs with railings. The oceanside porch is covered with rockers and seating for snacks and meals. There is a long history of young famiies enjoying their first beach experience in the safety of a contained private beach area.
Great stay with family. House is well stocked and looks just like photos. Owner is very helpful and location is unbeatable. We loved it.

Thanks.
Our vacation was perfect! We brought our 2 kids and stayed in the downstairs unit AGAIN!!! They loved the corner beds and kept their clothes in their own drawers. The listing and pictures are very precise in regards to the layout and amenities. The second bathroom and outdoor showers are immeasurable! We were as close to the beach as one could get! There's an ice cream shop with a mini convenience store a block away where we rented a beach umbrella for the week. It's only a short mile to the heart of beach haven. Everything was clean when we arrived and Bonnie was only a text away if you needed anything! The kitchen is stocked with anything you need to cook! Always a pleasure to come back here, knowing that we can expect cleanliness and superb accommodations.
Ps, we brought firewood this time and had a fantastic evening by the fire pit with the kids playing in the sand! Home Away

Had a great week at LBI. The home was everything we hoped for. Bright open, living/kitchen area. Kitchen beautifully updated. Comfortable beds with great AC throughout. Best part---sitting on the covered porch on a rocking chair with my feet on the railing overlooking the dunes having a beer. Bonnie could not have been more attentive to us. We will be returning. Highly reccomend this rental home.

This property was amazing! From how clean it was to the location of the beach and entertainment of the island. Bonnie and her family are super helpful and respond very quickly to any questions. Would stay here again in a heartbeat! Home Away

Thank you
Very nice property with a panoramic view of the ocean from this second floor location. Kitchen is very modern, even with usb charging outlets under the main kitchen table. Closet space is rather sparse, but overall a very nice space. Unit is beachfront and path to beach is adjacent. Quiet neighborhood is nice for walking. Ownerd have put a lot of care into the property and it shows. A/C units in every room make for lots of comfort in hot weather. Good shower. Highly recommended.

We were pleasantly surprised by the proximity to the beach this rental was. We were also impressed with the decor and cleanliness of the home. It was a perfect week at the beach! We mostly enjoyed taking walks in the early morning with our daughter to explore Beach Haven. Thank you for a great week!

Loved the quieter location yet only a 15 minute walk to bustling part of town. Place was clean and plenty of space for our family to enjoy the week. Will definitely consider this rental again!

My family and I have been coming to LBI for almost 30 years and have rented houses in many of the towns on the Island. This house is the best place we have stayed in. It is modern, clean, and sits "on the beach". I can sit on the deck and watch the ocean, or sit in the living room and see it from the comfort of the couch. Beds are very comfortable, appliances are new, and the washer and drier come in very handy. I have been dealing with Bonnie (landlord) for years and she and her father are very pleasant. I always look forward to getting to LBI a little early and having a conversation with Judge Todd. This house has been perfect for us. We're so glad we found it and plan to be here every year. I've also been here in the "off season" of late September and October. It's a great place to relax when the Island is less crowded. The restaurants are still open and the weather is still summer. If you're looking for a perfect place "on the beach", don't let this one get away. Just don't sign up for my week!
