Quick booking. Easy access. Kristen let us check in early and leave a little later . Nice time!

Great location plus well managed place to stay equals lots of family fun in Seaside Park.

This place had everything we needed. We've never stayed at the Shore before but a last minute change due to Coronavirus left us scrambling. Kristen was so helpful and accomodating. Our vacation was wonderful!

We had a really great time at the “Maine Cottage”. The location was perfect. We were able to walk to the beach, boardwalk and bay. The cottage was very well equipped and had everything we needed and we cooked, a lot! The outside shower, dishwasher, grill, washer/dryer and extra half bath were awesome extras and definitely got a ton of use. Another added plus was the large yard. We spent 2 weeks with our 2 adult children and some friends and spent every night in the yard playing games and hanging out. Our only recommendations would be 2 additional beach chairs and a board game refresh for adults (we played a Minnie Mouse Matching Game and had a laugh or two). We would definitely stay again, had a great time and really loved the location!

great home with quiet neighbors! We really enjoyed our off-season stay.

We had a great time at the maine cottage! The owner was very helpful and friendly; she even let us know that the home would be available for an earlier check in which is awesome! They had so many things on hand- a lot of kitchen necessities and many board games and activities (should there be some inclement weather, there is plenty of fun to be had right at the cottage). We had perfect weather, and most nights we barbecued in the back with our dogs, just like at home. We will absolutely reach out next time we plan a vacation at the shore! Thank you again for a great time!!

The Maine Cottage was a great place to stay for our vacation. The beach and the bay were both an easy walk from the house. Our family was also in Seaside for the week, and the large backyard was a great place to host a bbq for everyone.It was great to be able to bring our dog!

The "Maine Cottage" rings true to it's name! Guests are immediately greeted by decor that evokes a pleasant New England nautical vibe. The kitchen is well-stocked with anything guests would need to prepare and serve meals for large or small gatherings. There is plenty of space to spread out on three couches in the main living area and the front parlor area is outfitted with two comfy chairs with ottomans. The four bedrooms are thoughtfully decorated with coordinating accent pieces. The cottage is well-equipped with window air conditioners and ceiling fans. In early June, all we needed was the ceiling fans to keep us cool. We found ourselves utilizing the spacious, outdoor, fenced in back yard a lot. Several patio tables and extra seating provide the perfect area for enjoying morning coffee, grilling nightly meals and reading in the afternoon sun. Our labrador retriever had ample room to play with a tennis ball. An outdoor shower and closet filled with beach chairs, sand toys, and boogie board are also located in the backyard area. Four beach badges to Seaside Park Beach were included. Kristen, the owner, provided excellent service. She helped facilitate a change of our original itinerary to accommodate an additional night's stay that we added after booking the original trip through HomeAway. Communication with Kristen was timely, helpful and always courteous. The location of the "Maine Cottage" can't be beat! Bay views and ocean access are only a short walk in either direction. There is a 7-Eleven within walking distance if you find yourself needing a last minute item or have run out of something. Pizza, bagel, coffee, ice-cream and a taco shop are all within walking distance. Kayak and bicycle rental shops are also nearby. One evening we walked to Surf Taco to get take out and brought it to a public pavilion on North Bayview Avenue and ate dinner while watching the sunset overlooking Barnegat Bay. We also rented bikes from Shore and More and rode to the beginning of the boardwalk arcade area and also to Island Beach State Park. This house has everything and more that guests could ever need to enjoy a relaxing time at the beach! We would definitely book again! -Alina K.

I can’t say enough good things about this beach house! The location is perfect for families with children, it’s a 2 minute walk to the beach and a 15 minute walk (we drove just b/c it was easier with our 3 kids but you could easily walk) to the boardwalk and pier! There’s a huge back yard for entertaining if you wanted to, with an outdoor shower perfect for getting the sand off! It was such an easy process I was honestly nervous about it, but I couldn’t have been happier. We were very lucky to have great weather but if it did rain we would have been fine, the home is fully equipped with everything from games to movies to take out menus and coloring books! We will definitely be back! It’s a 4BR with 3 couches, so it was very accommodating for sleeping and lounging!

Traveling with pets and so close to the boardwalk about 5 minute drive. Bay is about a block away. Kristen was so helpful with any questions and responding promptly. Would highly recommend .

We had a wonderful time at the cottage very clean Kristen the owner was wonderful always available to answer questions the home has plenty of room and games my granddaughter loved the games close to the beach

I enjoyed my stay at your house. You provided everything I needed (and much more!) to spend a wonderful holiday at the Jersey Shore. The ocean was clean and fun (though rough) and it was awesome watching dolphins and cow-nose manta pods! Walking along the bay at sunset was a new-found enjoyment for me and my friends. I love the Jersey Shore... nothing like it that I have found! Gracias!

I almost booked a really expensive place, so glad I didn’t. The Maine Cottage is cute, clean, comfortable & well appointed. The pictures don’t do it justice. Love the one floor living with plenty of room for the 5 of us plus a small dog. The fenced-in yard & very reasonable pet fee were a bonus. Would definitely recommend this rental.

Thank you for the opportunity to rent your home this past June. We had a fabulous time. Your beach house is wonderfully decorated, cozy and fully stocked with all the required gadgets necessary for fun in the sun! We look forward to the opportunity again next summer and God willing, the summers that follow

We had a wonderful and restful time. Thank you so much for accomodating us. The house is lovely!The little thoughtful "extras" and your personal touch really added to our vacation enjoyment. Best Regards, Karen and Rich

The Maine Cottage was comfortable and an easy walk to the beach. Our dog Phoebe enjoyed the large yard and we were happy not to have to leave her in a kennel this summer.
