Two full hall bathrooms ensure there’s plenty of space for everyone to refresh after a long day at the beach.
The heart of the home is its warm, open living space and fully equipped kitchen, ideal for making home-cooked meals or just kicking back with a cold drink. Step out back and relax on the screened-in porch, a peaceful spot for your morning coffee or a quiet evening with the sound of nature.
Outside, unwind around the propane fire pit—great for s’mores or storytelling under the stars. Bring your pup along too—dogs are welcome, and there’s plenty of space for them to enjoy.
Best of all, you’re just a short walk or bike ride to Avalon Pier, a local favorite for fishing, sunrises, and scenic strolls.

This cute house was clean and newly renovated. It had the perfect beachy vibe. It was a great place to be, since we were indoors all weekend because of the nor'easter. They provided board games for entertainment. The backyard was perfect for our dogs. The screened in porch was also nice because we could sit outside and enjoy the rain. We would definitely stay there again!
