About this house rental
This cottage is close enough to the beach that you will walk back for a drink or to use the bathroom! When we had infants the convenience to walk back to change a diaper or get a fresh bottle was the best thing about it. You will love the cedar outdoor shower, the classic pine floors, the under-counter ice machine, central air, and stainless steel grill, and outdoor deck that catches the last of the setting sun. This house is truly the perfect beach cottage - the pictures tell the story!

My family and I (my mother, husband, 9 yr old son and I) stayed here for 5 days and found the property perfect for our needs. They provided: pillows, mattress covers, eating utensils (including knives), some cleaning supplies, BEACH BADGES, beach chairs, and beach umbrellas. The place was comfortable and all the appliances were in great condition, AC worked great. Outdoor shower was very useful. Right around the corner from the cafe, great food!
Don't forget to follow the instructions and order your LINEN SERVICE at least two weeks in advance! That's what we did and we were on our own for sheets, pillowcases, blankets and towels.
Note: The way the property is situated, you have many properties surrounding you and you may run into some late and loud partying neighbors over the weekend like we did. This was just bad luck/bad timing for us but always a possibility at the Jersey shore! Keep in mind street parking is a challenge on Summer weekends.

This was the perfect locations for my family with two teens. The property is truly pristine and well cared for. Everything works. The location is perfect, literally 2-3 minutes to a wonderful beach. Everything we needed was nearby.
Communication with Mike was easy and pleasant. We can’t wait to go back!

My family visited the New Jersey shore for the first time during our stay here. We really enjoyed this location! Peaceful with not a lot of traffic or super crowded beach. Lots of restaurant options within a 5-10 minute drive. The house is small, but provided what we needed. It is an older cottage that is behind the main house. But it has been updated with nice amenities such as the he dishwasher and ice maker. Nice outdoor sitting area. The inside was clean, the beds were comfortable and the location was great! It was an easy walk to the beach. The beach was perfect for our group. Our 4 year old loved the playground and our 11 year old loved the volleyball net. We also loved the boardwalk for a morning walk. Also, Gigis pizza and ice cream was a quick walk down the boardwalk and we visited there often. The only downside was the parking. We had to park on the street. This wasn’t a problem during the week but during the weekend we had trouble finding a spot nearby. But overall, I would stay here again and recommend it!

We enjoyed our stay near the beach. House was very nice. You do have to bring your own sheets and towels. Grill is good and outside table sits 6. Beds are on firm side, couch is comfortable. Dishwasher and washer/dryer work well.

Perfect spot for a family or friend getaway. Extremely close to the beach and easy access to all shore attractions. The kitchen has everything you’d need to make and serve meals. Mike and Tracey are easy to communicate with. It’s a sweet little location. We hope to return again.

This adorable house has everything you need to enjoy a week at the beach in Manasquan. It’s clean and Mike is very helpful. We loved the front porch, outdoor shower and BBQ grill. There isn’t a lot of privacy outdoors, but with the beach so close by, you hardly need it.

Couldn't ask for more
Hands down one of the best equipped rentals I've stayed in in Manasquan...had everything you could need for a comfortable stay (plus everything was in good condition and the house overall was very clean.) Beds were comfy, bathroom had a deep soaking tub and convenient stacked washer/dryer, kitchen was fully stocked with great counter space and ice machine with small ice chips were a huge bonus. Big table inside and outside for eating or playing board games. Beach chairs, 4 badges (they're $10 pp daily!) and the outside shower were essential for a great beach stay. Mike made the check in process and garbage collection seamless and easy. My family and I would definitely rent here again.

The BEST place to stay!
This was the absolute perfect spot for a couple or small family! So close to the beach, outdoor shower, sunroom, outdoor table and chairs, so much storage, beautifully renovated with an ice machine! The owner was so great with communicating! You won't be disappointed!

Excellent
Communication was superb and the location was ideal for a short walk to the beach. We were there off season and shared the beach w only a handful of others. The community felt safe, was peaceful, and had fun dining options.

Perfect cozy immaculate bungalow--we didn't want to leave
Everything was immaculate in this cozy bungalow. Perfect location to walking the beach walk or walking into town. I hope to make this an annual trip in March -- we just loved it.

Cute bungalow
Great little place. Very clean and all instructions were clear. Mike was super friendly, helpful and accommodating. It had a screen porch and a deck so lots of options. 1 block from the beach. Awesome location. Neighbors are close, but we're very nice.

Clean, attractive, well put together space close to beach
Cottage was a clean, attractive, well put together space close to beach, exactly what we were looking for. It was closer to the beach than expected, which was a pleasant surprise. Thought that address being 2nd Ave, it would be 2 blocks from the beach; it is more like 1 block - 1st Ave. is beach front; so we were very happy with the location. And the space worked very well for us. It was just my husband and I but the space would have also worked well for a family with young children.

Family Shore Vacation in Manasquan
We loved our week at Mike & Tracey’s cute shore cottage! The location is perfect to walk to and from the beach, and the house is extremely clean to enjoy! Love the street with other lovely well kept homes and free parking up and down the street too! We loved the space for four adults and enjoyed the different areas to sit like the screened in porch, outdoor tables, kitchen table and couch! We enjoyed grilling on the grill for a BBQ one night, but there are plenty of restaurants and bars nearby too!
Mike was super nice to let us check in early from a red eye flight and we were able to take a nap! The Linen Service was very helpful since we flew in from Arizona, and we were not able to bring sheets, blankets and towels. All of the beds were made for us and towels ready!
We also appreciated the beach chairs, and beach umbrella since we also could not bring them!
Manasquan is such a cute, fun shore town with so much to do, and to be able to stay in this lovely cottage makes a shore vacay perfect!
We highly recommend their shore house and we can’t wait to rent again next year, but we want to stay longer!
Thanks!! Joan and Family

Perfect Beach Getaway
We had a great time in Manasquan! The house is a block away from the beach so it was the perfect location. The house is exactly as described - everything was clean and neat. We loved having the outdoor table and grill. It was only two of us but easily could have fit two more, especially with the additional outdoor shower. The only con is no designated parking spot. We were here in the offseason so street parking wasn't an issue but could get tricky in the busy summer months since the house is so close to the beach.

A perfect beach cottage
This was the first time we rented in Manasquan. We usually go to Spring Lake 3x/year. This time, we wanted a 'place of our own'. For both of us, it was ideally located between Spring Lake and Pt. Pleasant, a sweet and beautifully designed and decorated beach cottage. The neighbors were welcoming and the owner immediately responsive to any questions we had. We will definitely make this our 'go to' place and advise our friends as such!

Great location — even in winter
I was looking for a quiet spot for a few days away to attend an online retreat and this small house by the ocean was perfect. Great internet (wired and WiFi) and a 2 minute walk to the beach. The bedrooms are a little chilly (I was there at the end of December) but not too bad. Bring your own linens, towels, etc. Very responsive host. I’d stay again.

Cute comfortable small house in back
We had a last minute booking for this lovely small house which is located in back of a main house. Very clean and updated. Kitchen was fully stocked with essentials. We did bring our own paper towels and TO which was needed. Beds were comfortable. There were 3 of us - 2 adults and a 3 year old. Communication with owner was also very good. Overall nice stay and beach is just a short walk away! Would definitely love to stay again.

Relaxing beach cottage
We had a wonderful time this summer. Mike was very responsive and a very accommodating host considering we booked a few weeks before CoVID and there was a hurricane the week we stayed. He was very helpful during these issues. The cottage is very cute and in such a fantastic location. Easy walk to the beach, walk or bike ride into town and not near any of the party houses. The grill was top of the line and we ate outside every night. Really cute place and a great quite town. We were so happy we could get away. Thanks Mike and Tracy

Great communication and management
Unfortunately our trip had to be canceled last minute due to a family health issue, but mike was very responsive and sympathetic. Mike handled the situation with class and showed a lot of flexibility in working with us throughout the uncertain situation. We look forward to being able to stay at this property in the future!

Location location location
This little bungalow had it all. It’s tiny but has everything you could need. Washer dryer, outdoor shower for the sand, never ending hot water with the tankless water heater, large ice machine, grill, outdoor seating. And the location was perfect for walking to the beach with a baby and toddler. We even walked back for naps and lunch. Would definitely rent again.

Jersey Shore Manasquan
The owner of the unit could not be more accommodating and a gentleman. Although parking was at times a hassle the house was very warm and cozy and was perfect for my 19 year old son and myself.

Great beach cottage for family of 3
The property is exactly as pictured, very clean and cozy. The location can’t be beat, so close to the beach, very easy walk to and from. There is no parking spot but it was very easy to find street parking nearby. We really enjoyed the Manasquan beach and all the nearby restaurants. Would definitely consider coming back next year!
