IN SHORT:
This gorgeous pink-colored 1880 home is one of Ocean Grove’s most unique and historic Victorian-era houses. It features original wide-beam antique pumpkin oak floors, and a large original stained-glass accent window. Coveted central location offers ultimate convenience with very short walks not only to the beach, but to all of Ocean Grove’s most iconic destinations, such as the famous 1904 Day's Ice Cream Parlor, The Great Auditorium, a place of Methodist Christian pilgrimage for more than 150 years (all are welcome), The Beach Pavilion, Thornley Chapel, The Bishop Janes Tabernacle, and the shopping, coffee shops & restaurants of Main Avenue Ocean Grove. The Creamcake is also just a quick stroll away from pulsing Asbury Park nightlife and entertainment: Walk there through the quaint 1800s town to either of the two footbridges -- or take the Boardwalk, at the beach and oceanfront.

WAIT! DID WE MENTION THE CUPCAKE
* The Creamcake's adjacent ultra-cute 1920s Cupcake beach cottage is a separate rental (lookup Cupcake Guest House) - with a living room, separate bedroom, full kitchen with dining area, and single bath with shower. Sleeps 3. Not connected to The Creamcake - a totally separate tiny house, one of the most-photographed residences in Ocean Grove. If you need more space, check to see if The Cupcake Guest House is also available for your dates!

    Well located and equipped house for a beach weekend with great access to water, Asbury Ocean and downtown Ocean Grove - lots of beach towels and chairs. Beautiful outdoor decks. For a long er term off season stay a little less ideal. Lacked comfortable seating in LR. Did not feel private. Beds in extra bedrooms were all child sized which wasn’t great when my adult children came to visit. Overall recommend for summer beach weekend stay especially for family with small children.

    We enjoyed our stay at the Creamcake House which is conveniently located near the main shopping area and the boardwalk. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. I look forward to visiting again some day.

    The Cream Cake House was built in the 1880s and has kept most of its charm from that era. Beautiful updated bathroom on the second level, dishwasher in the kitchen, which most rental houses do not have. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you needed. plenty of towels and paper supplies. Scott and Catherine were very nice and answered any questions we had almost immediately. Beautiful wicker furniture on the front porch, and a short walk to the beach. It was a very relaxing week for my group of five.

    I traveled from out of state to receive care at Monmouth Medical Center. The Creamcake was a short 20 minute drive from the hospital. We stayed for almost 2 weeks. The house was quaint, the beds were comfortable and the location was outstanding. We loved the short walk to the beach and shops. The hosts were quick to respond to any requests. It was a great place to rest and recover.

    Perfect home for a small family with a short walk to the beach, as well as main street shops and restaurants. Nice safe neighborhood to stroll around in and admire the Victorian architecture. Hosts were friendly and accommodating and very responsive to messages. We enjoyed time here!

    Three women ages 79, 78, 78. The beds were almost impossible to sleep in. No sleep makes for a very tired renters who were trying to enjoy a week at the beach!

    3 Moms , 3 teenagers had a very pleasant time in this sweet house . There was enough room for all of us - 3 girls stayed in the room with the bunk beds & one extra mattress was used for the floor . House is lovely - small but 2 bathrooms is a real bonus ! Overall no complaints & always nice to spend time in Ocean grove .

    This property is exactly as advertised. Beautiful Victorian home with all necessary amenities. The owners were very easy to work with. Ocean Grove is the place to go to enjoy the beach and quiet time on one of the two front porches. We definitely plan on coming back!
