About this house rental

After reading thru the entire description of the house, if you are interested in booking press the blue "Contact Host" prompt (please not press the “Request to Book” prompt)

This spacious, light-filled, serene and uncluttered, cedar-shingled, classic "Bay Header" is located in the heart of Bay Head. Walking distance to everything Bay Head has to offer, it's a great house for a multi generational family; Grandparents, parents, teenagers, babies - there is something for everyone! (we realize our 4-legged friends are part of the family but our No-Pet policy is firm so please don’t ask:)

The Bridge Ave beach is a quick two block walk away which is especially handy with young children, or when the weather suddenly turns.

Mueller's Bakery, Taylor Sam’s (formerly Dune Grass Cafe), the Jolly Tar, Twilight Lake, the Cheese & Wine Shop, Burke’s Market, restaurants, shops, pickleball/tennis courts, kids’ playground - they’re all right there. The NJ Transit train station with service to NYC is a short walk away, just on the other side of the lake.

The main floor has wonderful communal space with an open floor plan with Dining/Living Room, eat-in Kitchen, and half bath.

Doors at either end of the house open onto the wrap-around porch which offers great people watching, rain or shine.
The Kitchen slider opens onto a separate porch which has an outdoor shower, a lovely view of the channel and the sunset.
The only lawn is what you see in the picture, it is now fenced in.

The second floor has plenty of privacy with three full bathrooms and five bedrooms (1 King, 1 Queen, 1 Full, and 2 bedrooms with 2 Twin beds each)

Guests must bring their own bedding (sheets, blankets) and towels (bath and beach). We provide bed pillows (if you’d rather not bring bedding and towels from home there are companies on-line who will deliver and pick-up)

The house has no laundry facilities but complimentary "Wash & Fold" laundry service is provided which includes pickup and delivery, often the same day.

We have 2-zone Central AC plus ceiling fans in every bedroom. Utilities, wireless internet and Cable TV are included, as well as 6 beach badges (required for 12 years and older) 6 beach chairs and one beach umbrella.

We have a 7-night minimum from Memorial Day thru Labor Day. Multi-week, and monthly stays are welcome.
Check-IN is Friday at 5:00pm, Check-OUT is Friday at 12noon.

And again, although we love them, our No-Pet policy is firm, so please don't ask:)

We absolutely love this rental property! Allison & Bill are very responsive to any needs. They have paid attention to all the details to make it truly feel like home. A short walk to the beautiful beach & a wonderful bakery, fantastic lunch & breakfast place , cheese & wine shop, Playa Bowls, some nice shops & a fabulous restaurant Charlies!!

Excellent week at the shore! House is very clean and well maintained. Kitchen has everything you need to make meals. Location is convenient- right across from Playa Bowl and Mueller's Bakery, and the park/playground/tennis/pickle ball courts are a very short walk away. Short walk to the beach- do have to cross the main intersection in Bay Head with a light that can take a while, but small price to pay!

The house was amazing! I have been going to Bay Head for the past 45 years (since I was a small child) so I am very familiar with the town and the beaches. This house is ideal for several reasons....It has an amazing porch that gets a breeze no matter the time of day or direction of wind, plus since it is so deep and covered, you can also sit and watch a thunderstorm and not get wet! It is perfectly located right in the heart of town and close to the beach. everything is literally across the street. While the corner itself can be a bit busy, the house is amazingly sound-proofed so when you are inside, you have no idea how busy it is outside. And when I say busy, while there is traffic, it is polite and slowing moving, and a lot of pedestrian traffic, it is not route 35! The interior of the house is wonderful, a nice open layout on the downstairs, a great kitchen, dining room for eating or playing games, comfortable and clean sofas for lounging and the overall decor is my favorite, simple, open, clean and beachy. Everything is new and bright.The upstairs is really nice as well, all the bedrooms are comfortable and there are plenty of bathrooms. Again, everything seems new, clean and bright.I highly recommend this property for anyone and everyone, we will be sure to come again!
