This is our 5th time staying here and we can't say enough about the house. Great location and yard. House is great for 2 couples or a couple and 2 friends. Upstairs is great with 2 sleeping areas (1 sofabed), full bath and a deck. Downstairs has the master bed and bath. Living space has too many +s to mention. Highly recommend this house.

We traveled from Virginia Beach and Boston to unite on the New Jersey Shore as the Jersey Girls we all are! We had a great girls weekend staying at your wonderful house and felt right at home! We loved all the vintage antiques and modern conveniences! It was within walking distance to downtown Manasquan. Great house, can't wait to stay there again!
Thanks so much!

Will and Karen were awesome. Unfortunately we came to Manasquan for a business trip and was not able to enjoy the many amenities provided (bikes, beach passes), fortunately we live 5 minutes walking distance to a beach in FL. We are foodies and loved the well equipped kitchen and lots of spices in the pantry. We loved experiencing beautiful fall mornings and evenings on the back porch deck and loved the Weber grill, herb and vegetable gardens. We did have a minor issue with the toilet and washing machine knob and Will was able to help solve issues ASAP. I was a little disappointed that the steam room wasn’t working, Overall it is a 5 Star vacation rental and we are very happy with the Home away from home experience 🎉

We all loved the rental. The house itself is so interesting. No dollar store furnishings,or utensils. Great location,and beautiful grounds. Easy access to town,beach,and all points north,and south. The hosts,Karen,and Will were so accommodating,and easy to deal with. If we ever return to the Jersey Shore,I would hope to stay here again. Thanks again Karin,and Will. MW

This is a lovely comfortable modest sized home in Manasquan, NJ! It is very well equipped with everything you may need for a stay at the beach. The house has beautiful plants inside and well tended gardens outside. The back deck is private with a canopy of trees. The location is great, just a short ride to Main Street or the beach.

We had a great stay for a long weekend in Manasquan. The kitchen is extremely well stocked and we used (and contributed to!) the traveler's bar and community pantry. Great sound system, and a wonderful back deck. The decor is perfect--eclectic and interesting. What a phenomenal space. The whole family enjoyed it. Probably the most graciously hosted rental we have stayed in. We truly felt like guests in Karin and Will's home. Thank you!

It was a wonderful house for a family vacation! It was clean and very comfortable. Loved the decor inside and out. House had everything that you needed. We loved the kitchen. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was so relaxing. Favorite part was the outdoor space. The patio area was so welcoming and we loved cooking on the grill.

Relaxing Retreat
We truly enjoyed our stay. Karin and Will's home has so much charm, and everything a guest could need or want (and then some) is at their fingertips. Close to everything, yet feels a world a way. We can't wait to come back!

Beautiful house and even more beautiful Outdoor space
My family and I originally booked this house for Mother's Day weekend but I ended up getting sick, and Karin and Will were EXTREMELY flexible with rescheduling. We went this past weekend and immediately gasped when seeing the backyard. My family and I had to cut the trip short due to a family emergency back home, but we spend most of our time in the outside space which was one of the most relaxing things I've ever experienced. The house was well-kept and very clean! We had access to literally EVERYTHING which made it so convenient. I'm very OCD about sleeping on beds and sheets in rented houses, but everything was SO clean AND great quality, that I didn't even have to change out the sheets or towels for my own. I would definitely go there again and hopefully be able to stay longer!

Chill and relaxing!
We are local to the area but never knew the charms that Manasquan had to offer especially this chill and relaxing home! We decided to stay-cation at Mohegan Wood and really took advantage of the relaxing and comfortable home not to mention the spa shower and chefs grade kitchen. Highly recommend this place. The owners were very easy to work with, communicated exceptionally well and were accommodating when we wanted to stay a few extra days!

Wonderful getaway!
The house is charming and comfortable and very well appointed. Given the storm it was especially great to have the fireplace! (Alas the shower steam/sauna wasn’t working …) We will definitely be back!

Cozy, Comfortable home
I spent two weeks in this cozy house with my husband and teenage daughter in October. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed for a great stay. We had a cold spell and absolutely loved using the fireplace in the evening. We walked downtown for coffee almost every day, and used the bikes for farther jaunts. Great location. Super responsive, friendly owners. Highly recommend.

Fun little property with lots of quirky charm! Don't miss the suspended tv in the master. It was plenty of room for my husband and me and two adult daughters. They enjoyed their own space upstairs. We were in town for a wedding and it worked out great. Nice hosts who were good communicators.

Perfect for our family!
We had such a wonderful stay in this welcoming cozy home! The kitchen has everything plus a chef’s stove & huge grill on the back deck. We loved the porches & lush landscaping plus cucumbers, grapes, basil, parsley & tomatoes to pick in the garden! Lots of linens, towels, pillows & beautiful vintage quilts plus NEST guest toiletries. Also Netflix & Amazon prime was an unexpected bonus. Very comfortable! Quiet friendly neighborhood walking distance to downtown. Will & Karin are top notch super hosts! Would love to stay again - we were thrilled to bring our little dog too!

Being that I grew up in this area I was very familiar with this wonderful neighborhood. I can’t say enough great things about this house and all that it has to offer for a family or a group of two couples looking for a get away. This house is perfectly located far enough away from the beach to be in noise free area since we had our 2 1/2 year old with us. The steam shower and the back deck as well as the kitchen really make this place and amazing place to stay and have your complete privacy. We will definitely be coming back here in the near future.
Thank you Karin and Will for making our stay at the beach so enjoyable!
