This was the perfect place for my family to stay for the holidays! Wonderful apartment with all the amenities needed and then some! It was perfectly located - a quick drive (or we could even walk) to the shore and Sandi Hook along with several restaurants and the Twin Lights. I was able to watch the sunrise from the kitchen and deck every morning which was wonderful! There was a small park on the water a very short walk up the road for our dogs. Plenty of parking on site. Everyone we met was extremely kind and friendly. Entrance to the apartment was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Gary was an absolute pleasure to work with and was extremely accommodating when we had to cut our stay short by a day due to an impending snowstorm. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would definitely love to stay again!
