SIX BEACH BADGES come with this rental PLEASE note that rates listed are firm.

This former B&B is in a quiet family neighborhood for the summer! IF YOU ARE A BOISTEROUS GROUP THIS HOME IS NOT FOR YOU. The neighborhood is charming and VERY QUIET as the homes are extremely close together.

DURING THIS TIME, we are strictly adhering to the guidelines that are being set as well as taking the following precautions. We have:
- Upped the cleaning staff and timing between rentals to sanitize the house with industrial steam cleaners, bleach, disinfectants and ultraviolet wands
- Removed all non-essential items in the house such as books, any decorative items/pillows, board games, etc.
- Will replace all the sheets/towels (as we normally do), mattress pads, comforters and pillows after each rental (each bed will have two sets of mattress pads, comforters and pillows that will be sanitized after each rental) -
Two sets of dishes, cookware, flatware, glasses, brooms etc that will be switched out and completely sanitized after each rental (will also supply plenty of paper goods)
- Will have a two large plastic containers that will be cleaned and switched out between each rental with 2 sets of detergent, hand soaps, dishtowels, oven mitts, BBQ tools, clothes hangers, garbage bags, etc since nothing will be left in closets, under the bathroom/kitchen sinks or in the kitchen drawers

- Will require all renters to leave their shoes at the door
All steps (and beyond) are being taken to make sure the house is clean and sanitized.
ALSO...Even though we don't currently run it as a B&B (it was a running B&B when it was originally purchased), we decided to maintain my B&B and mercantile license. With that said, we must adhere to all fire/safety codes and the house meets (and exceeds) all of the required standards. This is important when considering a rental since many owners renting their properties are not required by law to meet these standards. All of these certificates are posted in the house.
There is an additional $150 LIGHT CLEANING FEE THAT IS ADDED TO EVERY WEEK.
There is an $800 refundable security fee added to each booking.

Terrific
Fantastic location, property fit all of our needs
My family--me, my husband and 2 daughters ages 16 and 18--just needed a place to get away during this crazy summer. We stayed two weeks and could not have been happier. The property is adorable: an old B&B with 5 rooms--each with their own bathroom; a front sitting room and a kitchen with a table big enough for 8. But it is the porches that make the place amazing. Located on the first block off the beach, we could see the ocean from the porches. The location was perfect. Easy walk to downtown Ocean Grove, just 10 minutes to Asbury Park's happening restaurant area--Cookman Ave and 1/2 block to the beach. The house is decorated beachy comfortable and the owner, Annie, took great pains to ensure it's super COVID clean. Annie was terrific to work with, made us feel really comfortable and remembered that we were celebrating a birthday while there. A welcome basket with birthday candles greeted us when we got there. So thoughtful. We wish we could have stayed longer. We will definatley be back.
Perfect location in Ocean Grove--close to Asbury Park and Main Street, but most importantly half a block from the beach. The house is very large, plenty of rooms--many with their own bathrooms in the traditional OG Victorian style. House was clean and well prepared for COVID. Owner was highly communicative, friendly, helpful.
My family had an amazing time staying here. The house is very big, Annie made sure we have everything we needed, even made sure we had a perfect parking spot right in front of the house! Would definitely come back here.
House was great and Annie was the best host. Def would book this property again. Thanks.
This was the Best Vacation thus far with my family. It was like we took our home in Virginia to New Jersey but with more room. This house was Fabulous, it had everything we needed down to a playpen for my granddaughter that we forgot to put in the van. Thank you so much Annie for making our 1st annual Brooks vacation special.
PS
Everyone that walked past the house spoke and was so friendly! We loved it, we will definitely be back next year!
Annie is a pleasure to deal with. Excellent location and neighbors are very nice and friendly. We loved our stay.
Perfect house for our extended family. Thank you Annie!
We had a great time the beach house. Our group rented the house for the Memorial Day weekend. The house is so comfortable and homey that it felt like home from the moment we arrived. Although the house is a little old, it is very clean, and well appointed. We liked that it has plenty of bathrooms, two areas of congregation, three porches, in general plenty of room for 15 people. The location is unbeatable, one block from the beach, close to the restaurants in both Ocean Grove and Asbury Park, within perfect distance to watch the fireworks in Asbury Park and the Memorial Day parade passes on the street in front of the house.
Annie, the owner was very nice to deal with. She answered all our questions, was very responsive and gave us some great suggestions for restaurants and things to do in the area. We hope to return again next year.
