Relaxing Getaway
This home is delightful in every way. From the front porch to the immaculate interior to the private back yard - you'll find everything you need to enjoy a relaxing vacation. This location has the best of everything - a short walk to the beach, boardwalk, local restaurants, pharmacy and the grocery store. The owners are very responsive with any questions you may have. Great value and worth revisiting this home every summer. See you in 2024 Ortley Beach!

Backyard is the winner
The backyard was such a plus. To find a 3 bedroom with a nice sized closed-in backyard for a reasonable price is sometimes hard. The owner has more than enough seating outside as well. There is a glass dining table with umbrella outside, 2 lounge chairs, a few extra plastic chairs and beach chairs as well. The house is close to the beach, 2 blocks from Acme supermarket and the liquor store and is walking distance to the boardwalk. I’ve stayed in seaside before and I didn’t like that I had to walk through the boardwalk to get to the beach. This house has access to a more private beach so it’s more family oriented.

Beach Stay
Everything was wonderful. The house was well kept, clean and stocked with all needed items for a family vacation at the beach. Owners left a nice gift of a bottle of wine and cold waters for our arrival. Very enjoyable from start to finish.

Great family vacation......
Our family of 4 enjoyed this spacious, clean and close to everything home. Short walk to the beach, boardwalk and restaurants. The kitchen is stocked well with everything you may need to make a meal. The front closet has board games for those rainy days and corn hole, frisbees and pickle ball to play in the beautiful back yard. Outside table and chairs are set on the patio to enjoy a dinner or just sit in the sun and enjoy the weather. Beach chairs and umbrellas are also provided for the beach. The large bathroom has a nice shower/bathtub with plenty of towels for their guest. Washer and dryer was a great addition after the sandy days at the beach. Central air and ceiling fans makes it cool on those warm nights. The owners have thought of everything to make your stay 5 stars. We will be back.

Can’t say enough good things about this property. We came down from MA and my daughter flew in from CA. Perfect size and location for the family. Everything you’ll need is there and works! A surprise gift too. We had a very nice and comfortable stay. Our hosts thought of everything! Hope to return again.

Backyard Bonus
The house was clean and had all necessities for a wonderful week. The back patio and yard were one of the reasons for renting the house. There was plenty of room to hang out and play backyard games. We would definitely rent the house again!

Fabulous beach house!
This house was clean, spacious and easy to maintain. There is much more space than what appears in the pictures. The large fenced in grass yard was such a bonus space at the beach! The outside shower was private, clean and spacious. Such a bonus to not have to lug bath towels and bedding on vacation. The towels were a little thin and small but that’s probably the only complaint I could come up with for this property. The owners were courteous and helpful with minor issues that came up during our stay. We would definitely recommend this place and look forward to renting here again in the near future.

Clean, Cozy & Comfortable
We thoroughly enjoyed our family vacation in Ortley. The house was immaculately clean, tastefully decorated and fully stocked with all the necessities. John & Judy thought of everything - and even left a welcome gift. The outdoor shower is wonderful and the yard is perfect for the afternoons - kids can play and you can relax with a cold drink after a long day at the beach. With cute porches in front and back, and the patio - there are lots of options for enjoying your morning cuppa joe. We plan on returning. 10/10

Wonderful Beach Retreat
What a wonderful place to stay in Ortley Beach - a few very short blocks from the beach. The place is perfectly maintained and has all the amenities to make you feel right at home. It is very clean and the convenience of having bedding and linens provided is an exceptional value add. The private backyard complete with grill, outdoor dining table and lounge chairs is an added bonus - a perfect place to unwind after a day in the sand. We will definitely be returning to this place. Loved every minute spent here! Thanks to John and Judy for the wonderful welcome and for sharing your home!!

Great time!
We had a wonderful time at this adorable 3-bedroom home, which is super-clean and has everything you might need during your stay. Some HIGHLIGHTS: — Loved the large fenced-in backyard, especially for my rambunctious 2.5 year-old toddler. So rare to get a real backyard down the shore. — The beds were VERY comfy! And so were the sheets — so soft! (AND so nice to not have to bring towels or bedding! They provide everything!) — The owners were super-responsive and nice and helpful (I got the patio umbrella stuck in a tilt and John helped me figure out how to get it down right away, and they came to put the outside furniture away when a big storm was on its way.) — I loved the outside shower. Roomiest one I've ever used with hooks and a little table for your clothes/towels. — You can sit on the cute front porch and see what's going on or hang out in the backyard, was nice to have both options and different places for everyone to chill after a day at the beach. — Nice and close to A&P for groceries, walking distance to beach, etc. — The owners left a sweet welcoming gift which was a lovely touch. NO complaints! Would stay again in a heartbeat. Thanks, John & Judy!

Second year renting here and it was another great experience. The owner even stopped by to change a light bulb and restock the dish washer soap. House was up to the same standard as last year: clean, comfortable, great location and well stocked with all that you need. We are booked again for the end of August and can't wait.

Immaculate cottage stocked with everything you will need
What a great find this rental is! We have been renting for 1 week each summer in the Ortley/Lavalette area for the last 10 summers for a family reunion get-away. We have stayed in and seen numerous homes in the area but I have to say this was the best one so far! Anything you can think you may need for a week at the shore is included in this home even SHEETS AND TOWELS!!! It housed 4 adults and 2 kids perfectly. The backyard is amazing! My kids loved how big it was and were able to kick their soccer ball around at night. The outside shower was a plus when getting ready to go to the boardwalk at night. All the light switches were label which was so helpful. This rental is truly a gem and we will definitely be back to rent again andwill also pass the listing on to friends. Thanks so much for a great weekend "down the shore"!!

The owners make your stay feel like you are at home. They have everything you need and if you happen to need anything they come immediately to give it to you. Excellent location near Acme, the seaside boardwalk, the bay and all the great restaurants in Lavallette. Fabulous fenced in back yard with a nice size lawn for the kids.

Absolutely Perfect!
Our family of 4 stayed in this home and we couldn't have been happier. Every single detail from the amenities to the decor was perfect. We were supplied with everything we could have needed to enjoy a week-long family vacation at the shore (dishes, bath towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, etc). The home was very clean, organized, and comfortable. Within walking distance to the bay, the beach, and the famous Seaside Heights boardwalk. The neighborhood is quaint, quiet, and charming. We had a very memorable vacation and would love to return.

House was beautiful! Close to everything!
We absolutely loved staying at this house. It was clean, beautiful and perfect for our family of 4. It really felt like a home away from home. John and Judy were always very responsive, and they really thought of everything. It was a close walk to the beach and a short drive to so many great places the Jersey shore has to offer. We definitely plan on going back!

A Summer Place
John and Judy couldn't be more accommodating. The house was impeccable. So comfortable and truly a home away from home. We were very sad to leave, but hope to do it again next year. The beach was close and shops within walking distance if you didn't want to drive. I would definitely recommend to my friends for a great time at the beach within 2 hours from NYC. Thanks again John and Judy Best regards Carmel

Fantastic, Awesome
Our family recently spent the week in this beautiful home. We had everything we needed already provided for us upon our arrival. Everything in the house was spotless and very well maintained. We had an issue with the cable and had to contact John. He got on the phone right away with the cable company and got right back to us with an explanation of what was going on. It turned out that a storm knocked out most of the channels. I would highly recommend the house to all of my family and friends. If we decide to go back down for a vacation I would not rent any other home.

Another year, another great stay.
Thanks you John and Judy. Once again we enjoyed our stay. The house is perfect for the three of us, and as in the past, very clean upon arrival. Thank you very much for the surprise gift. The large backyard came in handy as we BBQ'ed with our guests a few nights. Your house is in the perfect location for us as we have friends just up the block. It's located within walking distance to the Acme and the beach. Perfect, perfect, perfect! Hope to see you next year. Thank you for a great vacation! Ray and family.
