Peaceful Getaway

EmmaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
My family really enjoyed staying here for Christmas! We have family nearby so the location worked well for us- it’s also a plus to be walking distance to Main St shops and restaurants (our favorites, Vic’s and Darcy’s)!We travel with our dogs and this house was really comfortable for them which makes us happy and feel at home as well. Big backyard and nice neighborhood for walking. Most airbnbs we’ve stayed in lack seating but Tiffany’s large sectional with dining table for 6 in an open concept downstairs was a great perk. Tiffany made check in and check out extremely easy and made us feel relaxed about being away from home. Would love to stay again for our next trip to the shore!

Net Fish N Grill Getaway

MichaelRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We came down to stay for a couple of days. The location was perfect for what we needed. Seven of us stayed in the house, it was clean and spacious. We were checked in on each day of our stay to ensure we had everything that we needed. The house was clean and comfortable. Waking up to the sunrise on the water was a great way to start the day. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home!

Edge of the Sea

JeffRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Summer came and went without my family and I spending as much time as we wanted at the beach. So to make sure we got our fill of sun, sand and water, we rented Brian's house right on the beach and we couldn't be happier. The location was peaceful enough but active enough to keep you entertained while relaxing. In walkable distance to everything you need on a jersey shore vacation. Loved seeing the kids run on the boardwalk, laughing and acting like kids on a shore weekend. Great views from the second floor balcony and enjoyed saying hello and talking to people ealki g by from the 1st floor front porch. We had 4 adults and 2 kids in the house and never at any point felt like we didn't have enough room. Great house and location. Brian is easy to get along with and is an involved host. We are definitely coming back next year.

Beautiful Historic Ocean Grove Cottage

JacobRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Cute beach cottage with a beautiful porch, a yard, and an efficient well designed interior. Ocean Grove is an quaint, Victorian style beach town my family has been going to for years. We enjoyed being able to take a nice walk or short drive to the beach. You are close to Asbury Park with some good eats and hangout spots. The host has great communication and has a very kind checkout policy. We just had to turn off the lights, adjust the temp, toss the towels in the wash, and could hit the road. Highly reccomend for a small family trip or relaxing getaway.

A panoramic view of a sandy beach stretches alongside the ocean, with gentle waves lapping the shore. Colorful umbrellas dot the sand, and a lively boardwalk is visible in the foreground, featuring an amusement park area and green spaces for visitors.

Fully renovated modern beach home in Ortley Beach

RochelleRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Great family house. 6 adults and two very little children. Kitchen is spacious and the large and beautiful island was a great gathering spot for all. Grilled out in secluded yard that has outdoor furniture and fire pits. Added perks of boogie boards, beach umbrellas, etc. Large grocery store around corner. This house had everything that we needed for a week of respite and family fun.

Your guide to Ocean Beach

Welcome to Ocean Beach

The Barnegat Peninsula occupies 20 miles of barrier island on New Jersey’s fabled Jersey Shore. It shifts from glittering amusement park rides to old-school Skee-Ball arcades and pristine beaches perfect for swimming and surf-fishing. In the middle of it all is Ocean Beach, a resort community and unincorporated section of Toms River township. After the devastation of 2012’s Hurricane Sandy, locals began elevating classic barracks-style bungalows onto pilings, or replacing them with larger cottages. But the vibe remains the same here: very family friendly.

Ocean Beach marries a cozy atmosphere with a splash of boisterous boardwalk culture. Once you’re done with the mini golf and pedal boats, head south to re-energize at the tranquil Island Beach State Park. Sand dunes and sugar-white coves sprawl 13 miles from Ocean Beach, punctuated by beach heather and prickly pear cactus.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Ocean Beach

The Jersey Shore teems all summer long. If you have the flexibility, wait for families to decamp when kids get back to school. You’ll avoid peak crowds, both on the road and at the seashore. Some beaches remain staffed by lifeguards until mid-to-late September; after that, chillier ocean temperatures send most swimmers scrabbling for wetsuits. That period also brings popular annual events like the Rock the Farm Festival, the Wheels & Wings Auto Show, and the New Jersey Festival of the Sea.

The shoulder seasons still hold plenty of appeal. April, May, September, and October’s typically mild temperatures invite walks, bike rides, kayak trips, and lazy days on the beach. Winter tends to be sleepy and more on the windy, shivery side.


Top things to do in Ocean Beach

Grave of Sinbad the Dog

Salty Atlantic sailors once celebrated a mutt smuggled aboard the U.S. Coast Guard vessel Campbell in 1937. Named Sinbad, the mascot got court-martialed three years later for chasing sheep. The commanding officer found him guilty and busted the draft-beer-loving scamp from First Class Dog to Seaman Pup. But nothing could tarnish Sinbad’s celebrity after a German U-boat almost sank the Campbell in 1943. Visit the heroic hound’s tomb at Barnegat Light Station, a 44-mile drive south from Ocean Beach.

The Paranormal Museum

Quirk it up at this compendium of curiosities in Asbury Park, 21 miles north. Displays include haunted dolls and the alleged skull of the Jersey Devil, a cryptid rumored to haunt the Pine Barrens. The museum also hosts ghost hunts and tours of the area’s haunted history.

Seaside Heights

This livelier town just three miles south has more of the classic Jersey Shore vibe. Add some adrenaline to your getaway with the 97-degree drop and three inversions on the Casino Pier roller coaster. For a more mellow experience, turn to Seaside Heights’ beloved 1910 Dentzel-Looff carousel, which will reopen nearby in mid-to-late 2022.
