Holiday rentals with lake access in Ocean County

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Biff's place! The house is very clean, open, and bright. The many windows and doors fill the home with warm natural light (which was very welcome in the middle of winter!). The house is well situated on a quiet street in Lake Como, nestled away from busier streets, while still being close to restaurants in Belmar, Spring Lake, and Asbury Park. Biff took extra care to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay - he even had the outlets covered, which was a very thoughtful touch since we were staying with our one year old 😊 The kitchen was well stocked with any supplies we needed for meal preparation (the most well stocked of any AirBnb we've stayed at!) and the beds and linens were quite comfortable. Biff was very friendly and responsive when we had any questions and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed during our time at the house. We can't wait to stay again soon. Thank you, Biff!

We had the most wonderful stay at a beautiful house on Mallard Island, and I can’t recommend it enough! The property was immaculate, with everything we could need for a comfortable stay. The basic necessities were well thought out, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The views were truly breathtaking. Every morning, we woke up to incredible sights of the marsh and bay, and the sunsets were even more spectacular—definitely something to look forward to every day. The location is also a big plus; it’s within walking distance to Old Causeway, which has one of the best happy hours in NJ imo (from 3-6pm), making it the perfect spot to unwind after a day of beaching or bay activites. The hosts were exceptional—kind, accommodating, and so easy to communicate with. They were flexible with our arrival time and even allowed us to check out a bit later than the posted time, which was much appreciated. We could have used a few more towels, but next time we'll bring a few. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Stay

Had a wonderful girl's weekend at the 'Retreat.' The house was very comfortable and the layout was conducive for cooking, eating and hanging out. The beds were comfy too! The backyard is amazing and we wished the weather was more cooperative for outdoor time. Communication with Ann and Mike was extremely easy and timely. We would definitely stay here again. Many thanks!

Julianne and Tim were gracious hosts, super helpful when we ran into a few snags with the front door lock. And I couldn't imagine a more beautiful spot in Manasquan, nestled on a quiet side street just a couple of blocks from the beach. The house is wonderful, spacious yet cozy (the couches are especially comfortable) and it's a great location for the price. One thing to keep in mind (especially for folks traveling from far away) is that you need to bring your own linens, pillows, and blankets, but the kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils and dishes, and the house is within walking distance of most amenities you'd need. This would absolutely be my first recommendation for places to stay in the area. Would love to come back if they'd have me!

Raquel and Carlos were absolutely wonderful. My family and I even extended our stay by a week. We had such a lovely stay we didn’t want to leave! My service animals felt right at home and my daughters loved the backyard and lagoon. They played outside and fed the ducks everyday! Their home truly felt like a home away from home. Anytime I had a question they responded right away! I would 10000% recommend them and will absolutely rebook with them again in the future. If you want the kindest hosts, stay here! Thank yall so much for such a beautiful stay!

Very nice home in a great neighborhood and relaxing views. Hosts provided everything we needed and keep the home very nice and clean

Teresa was absolutely amazing! She was so helpful and so kind with everything! Her property was so clean and so beautiful! I would easily rent this property again!!! Thanks!!!!

Perfect weekend stay for a wedding nearby. The house was exactly as described. It was so nice to sit by the water and watch the sunset and to be walking distance from the boardwalk! Highly recommend!

Our stay at Elena’s place was incredible. The house had every convenience, amenity and comfort we could have possibly asked for. There were so any fantastic touches from a welcome gift, to wonderful linens, towels, toiletries, kitchen needs and beach chairs and umbrellas. It was impeccably clean and so thoughtfully updated, maximizing every inch of space. The location was absolute perfection, literal steps to the beach, boardwalk and restaurants. It was the ideal house for our family of four. Elena’s communication and responsiveness could not be beat and she communicated to us a number of times throughout our stay that she was available for anything we needed! Thank you for a wonderful stay, we look forward to returning!

Would definitely return!! Such an amazing and cozy stay. Alphonse had every toiletry you could think of! Super accommodating and he was a very responsive host!

Host was flexible when I needed some tweaks to accommodations. She was clear and open about other guests on the property. She offered extra towels or anything else needed. Stopped by to say hello and welcome me to the cottage. Neighborhood and lodging were as expected since I am familiar with the area. I will stay here again! Love the short walk to the lake and ocean and bagel store!

Beautiful home, great location!! Very clean and my kids loved the loft area.. Close to Lavallette shopping and beaches, as well as a short drive to the Seaside boardwalk. Very responsive host, highly recommended staying here!! Will be back!

Stayed here for a long weekend with my husband and two kids. Loved the proximity to the beach. All of the neighbors were very friendly and overall the stay was very peaceful!

Host was fantastic and offered a late checkout without me even asking. Would 100% recommended to anyone staying in the area

This was such a relaxing and cute cottage. Had plenty of room and everything was clean and tidy! Will definitely be staying here again! Thank you for being a wonderful host!! 💙

It is a very accurate description. Photos are representative. This is a narrow, compact bungalow, yet we fond it to be ample space. Sure it’s a smaller bathroom, but it’s the style house. We didn’t find it to be any problem at all. Again, photos are representative. The location during our stay (mid September) was very quiet. It’s a hop over to the beach. We felt safe. It’s nice to have a little driveway spot too and one floor, no stairs makes it easy! There were 3 of us, so quite comfy. Larger groups might need more space, but there are some open and usable spots - such as front porch area with the futon like couch. We found it to be clean, no issues. The back patio is nice too. If there was any critique, it would be that there’s not a lot of seating to be inside for chatting or tv. There’s a loveseat in the back by the tv, we took in a patio chair - for us no big deal. Overall, we will return and the host, Karleen, was so helpful and quickly (super fast) responds. 5 stars from us ❤️
