There was only 1 indoor shower in this 6 bedroom house. The second bathroom had a shower under construction needing a glass enclosure. When I booked this property 5 full months before our rental began I explained to the owner that the second shower was a necessity for our reunion party of 10 and it would be a 'deal breaker' (my exact words) if they could not meet this requirement. My sister who inspected the property several months after the booking reiterated my exact words and again there was agreement with the owners. Despite our verbal agreement and without any notice from the owners in advance of the last cancellation date, when we arrived for our vacation there was still only 1 indoor shower. The owners were unwilling to discuss even a reasonable accommodation in the form of a rental reduction for their failure to provide the second shower. They further denied that I ever said this would be a 'deal breaker'. My advice to anyone who rents this property is to get everything in writing from the owners, who cannot be trusted to honor a verbal promise.

Really enjoyed our stay at this charming, wood-paneled house and would rent it again without reservation. It is very centrally located to town; within walking distance of bakery, restaurants, cheese shop, etc. It is a block from the beach and half a block from the lake where there are beautiful sunsets every night. The house itself was very clean and well equipped with new appliances, crisp sheets and plenty of kitchenware. Enjoyed bikes, gas grill, outdoor shower and screened in front porch for cocktails. Recently added central air was a major plus! Owners were very responsive to questions. We grew up in Bay Head and know the town well. This property is a true gem.

This property was in a great location!! So convenient to the beach access. Clean and a wonderful old "Bay Header" house with interesting history. It fit our large family nicely. The updated kitchen and bathrooms were a huge plus. The only thing I would say is that it says queen size beds but they were full size. Not a deal breaker for sure, but something you should know. Spent most of the time on the large screened in front porch. :) Also great to have bikes to use. They came in handy. Most definitely a winner!!

Beautifully restored 1880s home with all the modern conveniences! A great kitchen. Plenty of bedrooms for our group of 12. A short walk the the beach that is very quiet. A shaded back yard with a grill which was perfect for family dinners outside and lawn games! The house came with all you could need- the kitchen equipped with all items, bicycles, beach chairs, board games etc! Bay Head is a lovely community quiet with much to walk to! (Restaurants and Muellers bakery and Burkes market!) We were close enough to point pleasant boardwalk for those who wanted to go as well! Highly recommend ! Laura was pleasant and knowledgeable and available if needed!

Our second year at this property. Excellent for our family! Beautiful house close to beach. Great kitchen well stocked with all cooking supplies Large backyard to have family dinners and play games like corn hole! Loved the front porch. Bakery and restaurants and small store a short walk away Owner responds quickly to questions. The only down side was construction at the property behind that was noisy all day. We would definitely return and recommend!
