Regarding things you may see in other reviews. Yes, the train is close, and because the house is near two crossings it will be loud, but one gets used to it. Bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. It is about 400 steps to the beach which is awesome…go early, stake a claim and show up at your leisure later. Close enough to run back to pee if the waters too cold.The rooms are smaller…one may assume you are not there for the rooms. The kitchen is full and very serviceable. That and a gas grill and you are capable of making whatever you want…the coffee maker (July 2026) is a Keurig, so bring pods if thats your thing.Are you 6’3”? The beds are doubles(?) queens(?) either way my wife and I slept in the two beds…the place is great for two people and maybe challenging for more than that, but again, you ain’t there for the cottage.The new heat pump system kept it nice and cool without having gross old ACs blowing on you…that was very comfortable. The woman next door locked herself out…she called the owner and it got resolved very quickly…that response time is worth a star in my book. there is a beach wagon and some beach paraphernalia there, but I would bring my own anyway…but a backup is nice! Nice neighborhood, surprisingly quiet while being in the thick of things. There were no obvious inconveniences that I noticed. Easy close out, gather dirty linens and towels, quick sweep toss the trash and thats it.

We had a very nice stay .walking distance to beach and restaurants! We can wait until next year!

Location is close to the beach! Only a few mins walk to the sand. We walked to bars, restaurants, the Playland and Pier easily. It was just that right size for my boyfriend, myself and our dog. If we had invited another couple for the whole week it might have been a tight fit, but fine to have an overnight guest. The owner’s communication was timely and informative. Great host!

It’s a cottage.
