1-Block to Beach - 1 Bdrm, 1st flr unit in historic Victorian home of OceanGrove
About this condo rental
For rent is a first floor apartment of an original Victorian era home in historic Ocean Grove (OG) built in 1878, only 1-BLOCK to the beach! The house is situated in the Southern part of OG, 3-blocks south of Main St where you will find shopping, dining, and more. Asbury Park is just a nice walk up the boardwalk where you have plenty of Dining & Entertainment options. Ocean Grive’s Auditorium is a “must see”, along with the tent community and great lawn surrounding it. If you are lucky you can catch a concert or show in the Auditorium! The apartment is a Railroad style apartment with a living room as you walk in the front, which has a large sofa with a queen pullout bed, coffee table that pulls up to be a table, & a TV with streaming entertainment. The bedroom with a Queen bed is after that, separated from the Living room with heavy drapes for privacy that are easily pulled back and stowed. The kitchen with seating for 2 & basic kitchen appliances/wares is past the bedroom. Then the bathroom in the rear (no tub, just a shower) off the kitchen. The apartment has been renovated within the last 5 years and the bathroom is brand new in 2020. there is comfortable outdoor seating for 2 on the front porch with views of the ocean & boardwalk. Quiet neighborhood, but lively in the summer nights! The space is perfect for a couple or a single looking for a great stay in Ocean Grove, close to the beach & town. (NOTE: this apartment is strictly for 2 people, any parties above 2 must be pre-approved by the owner. you may contact the owner through VRBO for a prompt reply) the property is walking distance to Asbury Park & Bradley Beach and allows you to park your car for the long weekend & leave it there!! Since OG was built as a community in the 1800’s, there are very few driveways. You can park anywhere on the street that isn’t yellow or handicapped - so there are plenty of places to park right around the house. The downtown of Ocean Grove is just 3 blocks away which also has a small grocery store & a laundromat that does wash/fold by the pound or coin operated wash. (No laundry in the apartment) OG Beach badges are the responsibility of the renter and can be purchased online using the VIPLY app from your Smartphone or looking up “VIPLY Ocean Grove” on your browser to purchase them online. Bath towels are provided, but NOTE since COVID precautions are in place, you may want to bring Queen linens/pillow cases yourself if you are more comfortable doing that. Linens, pillows, & comforter will be provided for you. There is a coffee maker in the kitchen and we have provided some coffee, creamer, and sugar for your use. The kitchen is small, but has what you need to cook for a few people & there are pots/pans/utensils, etc.. there. Any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Hope you enjoy your Ocean Grove stay!!

Perfect In Every Way
We are two women who prefer separate sleeping accomodations, and we were able to manage this by using the bedroom and the couch in the living room. Bed was very comfortable and couch acceptable. Bathroom, kitchen fine, and front porch our favorite!
Easy walk to beach, restaurants, shopping.
This 81 year old couldn't have been happier with Karl's place!!

Great spot right near the beach
This is a small unit, but it is nicely furnished and arranged for a couple. The covered porch with comfortable chairs is a great asset. We could sit outside and enjoy the ocean breeze. It is well equipped for making coffee or a light meal, but not for cooking more extensively.

From the moment we stepped into Carl's apartment in Ocean Grove, we knew we made the right decision. The studio apartment, which is located within an old victorian home, felt cozy and homey from the moment we arrived. While technically a studio the apartment it is large enough to feel comfortable while spreading out, yet not feeling cramped. The interior was well kept and very clean. There was one air condition with numerous fans on, and the apartment itself cool's down very quickly- a life saver during the hot Shore Summer's!
The full size kitchen was perfect to start our mornings. The apartment comes with a coffee maker, which we used daily. This was perfect for when we decided to wake up and relax on the porch, which has two comfortable chairs. We loved the smell of the ocean breeze and watching all the friendly neighbors go throughout their day. The bathroom was well kept and very clean. The one concern is the shower is slightly low, which may be an issue for those who are on the taller side.
In terms of location, you can not beat this location! The apartment is only ONE block from the beautiful and clean beaches. Ocean Grove is a quiet paradise smacked between the vibrant towns of Asbury Park and Belmar. Since this town is considered quiet, we were nervous we would be bored- we were so wrong! We absolutely loved being a short distance away from the nightlife and restaurants of neighboring Asbury Park, which was only a 10-15 min walk on the boardwalk. There is also a small main street within Ocean Grove with stores and restaurants, which we also checked out during our stay.
This apartment is the perfect place for a couples weekend or a fun girls/guys trip down the shore. I can not rank this apartment high enough, and would absolutely recommend this place to friends and family. We look forward to coming back soon!

We have been coming to Ocean Grove each summer for many years and this is one of the nicer deals we have found. Very simple but perfect for two people. Best location - on the first block from the beach - taking advantage of OG's set-back rule which gives this house ocean breezes and views. We spent lots of time on the lovely porch. Very relaxing. Hope to return.

Cute, convenient place to stay. Quiet and relaxing. Quick to the beach, quick to Main St offerings. Come prepared for Off Season - dining options were minimal even though yelp informed otherwise. Bring extra blankets with your bedding, temps dropped to low 60s/high 50s and apartment was very chilly. When temps hit high 70s, inside chill disappeared. To watch sports or other mainstream tv, bring your iPad/tablet with network apps preloaded. TV is Netflix and Roku only.

comfortable home, excellent location
We enjoyed our stay, so close to the beach ~ just a block away! The front porch was a pleasant place to sit with a cup of coffee and enjoy the breeze from the ocean and pretty views. Loved it! The owner was helpful and responsive. Great place to stay!

Great beach days
The property was cozy and clean. I loved the upgraded bathroom! Communication with the owner was very easy. Carl was very responsive! A simple 5 minute walk to the beach made this stay the absolute best. For others conisdering staying there, there is a full set of pots/pans and cutlery in the kitchen. However, you'll probably need to bring most other basic kitchen pantry items with you. No toiletries are provided really, so pack like you're staying in a cabin, not a hotel! :)

Nice comfy getaway!
Enjoyed our break in Ocean Grove. OG is a densely populated community so we spent our days on a different beach during this challenging time. The porch was great and the sea breezes very relaxing. Very nice owners!
