Fantastic
Everything you can want in a rental and more. The house is so comfortable and the extras are perfect (bikes, toys, Sandy Hook pass). We were here for a wedding so we did not use the kitchen much but it was well equipped. The Highlands neighborhood was fun to explore. Start the day with coffee at the Farmacie and take it from there. All in all a great Jersey shore vibe. Thanks to the hosts. If we ever come back to the area: this would be our top choice of place to stay.

House w Character
We were looking an alternative location to visit NYC, and stumbled across this amazing house located in the Highlands of NJ. We were a short trip to two separate sea streak ferry ports, Sandy Hook, and charming restaurants. We got our Italian and bagel fix- while taking a ferry ride into NyC for two days. The house itself is so comfortable, with tons of small details that made our stay amazing. We will be back!

Great house and location
Can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay here! The house is fully equipped - more than enough to prepare a gourmet meal! Washer and dryer were also very handy to have. We didn’t lack for anything, and the home was immaculate! Close by is a nice coffee shop and other conveniences. What a pleasant visit we had and we plan on returning again!

“Boho Beach Bungalow RETREAT”
We had a fantastic stay in the Highlands. Every bit of the home description (And More) is accurate. We have family in the area and love visiting the NJ shore. Cherisse was so easy to communicate with and even accommodated an unexpected early arrival. (Thank you again 🙏) The property is clean, quiet, comfortable and easy access to everything. Early morning walk to bakery, casual lunch down on the water and family beach time galore. We can’t wait to come back!! Thank you for a wonderful stay and so many great memories.

Amazing Retreat
Just what my partner and I were looking for in a relaxing beach getaway. Can’t speak highly enough of the hosts. The welcome guide was so helpful and their recommendations were perfect. They basically planned our trip and it couldn’t have been better. Loved the local charcuterie board setup at our arrival-highly recommend!

Fishing getaway
This house was perfect for our group of friends to stay while we enjoyed some Raritan Bay fishing. The driveway was long enough to park boat trailer and truck as well as another vehicle. The house has everything and is really cool. The town is great and the Proving Grounds is a nice place to grab dinner and drinks with live music.

First visit to the area
This was my first visit to the area. My son was accepted to the nearby university and my family was invited for a campus tour and other campus activities. I didn't know anything about the area, and I did not want to stay at a hotel. I previewed short-term rentals for several weeks and ran across Cherisse's listing. I contacted Cherisse before booking to ask some questions and she promptly responded. I booked the listing based upon her feedback. When my family arrived, the home was exactly as listed. My family was very pleased with the amount of space, the amenities and location. There was information in the home that provided suggestions for local restaurants, bakeries, beaches and parks. This really helped. Again, this was my first visit to the area. The home is well equipped with games, utensils/flatware/serving items/pots/pans and etc. There is really nothing you need to bring for a great long weekend or stay. While there, I had a few questions and Cherisse was very prompt in answering. My boys have accused me of being very "particular". I was very happy with the home and comfortable during our stay. My entire family had a wonderful time there and will reserve this home again.

Definitely a 5 star property, location and host, also a 5 paw rating from our pup. Everything you could want in a vacation rental to unwind from the daily grind. Need beach chairs and accessories, bikes, private patio even a record player? Look no further, it's all included at the beach house. We definitely recommend a stay at this rental and will certainly be returning.

Perfect for our annual Girl's weekend
The home was immaculate. The style and decor was perfect down to the tiniest detail. Lots of wide open places to gather and catch up with friends both inside and outside. The dining room table was suitable for our big family style meals, and kitchen provided us with everything we needed to prepare them. It was absolutely perfect and in close proximity to restaurants and bars. Cherisse guided us to the best places to visit despite our less than stellar weather. I don't usually visit the same place twice, but this time I may have to book again. The home, the trip, and the hostess were all 5 stars.
