Where to begin with all of the perks of this house?! The one minute walk to the beach is worth every penny ALONE. Having two young kids- being able to run back to the house if we forgot something is priceless. On the note of having kids- if you are planning to bring books or toys of any kind, save yourself the trouble and extra suitcase and leave them home. I brought everything under the sun to occupy my kids and was thrilled to find that the third floor den had puzzles, games, books, magnet tiles, you name it. As far as the cleanliness goes, the house was meticulous. It was spotless from top to bottom. The house also beautifully allows for privacy (in the placement of bedrooms and bathrooms) and togetherness (with the third floor open floor plan). The elevator was a game changer. It was practical when bringing groceries up, luggage down, and when bringing my elderly in laws up and down. We were thrilled by how stocked the house was with beach necessities: boogie boards, toys, chairs, umbrellas, a wagon, etc. Also, the outdoor shower was huge in cleaning up after trips to the beach! And last but not least the house is just beautiful and comfortable. Every bed, blanket, pillow… you can see the thought put into each choice. This was our first time in Brigantine. We didn’t know what to expect but were thrilled to find that it’s a quiet, family type of town. The beach was quiet. The people were nice. It felt homey and safe. We loved everything about this house- beginning to end!
