    Very well appointed house with a ton of outdoor space, including a two level deck with lots of space for eating and hanging out. But the best part is the covered dock, where there is always a breeze and a ton of sea birds to watch along with the water of the bay channel. Kayaks, crabbing. A 10 minute drive to the beach in Stone Harbor. Loved it!

    This was the most wonderful stay in Stone Harbor on the Jersey Shore. The location was perfect. Less than a 5 minute drive to Stone Harbor beach. About 25 minutes north of Cape May beach. 15 minutes north of the Wildwoods. 15 minutes south of Sea Isle City. You can't ask for a better, or more convenient location.The house was even better than advertised. Super clean. Incredible sunset views. Right on the water. Amazing sunsets every night. Outstanding views of nature and wildlife. Everything about this house was comfortable, clean and convenient.The owner was the most outstanding communicator I've ever dealt with on Vrbo. He communicated everything leading up to our stay in a timely fashion and he responded immediately if I reached out with a question.I highly recommend this house and this homeowner. This is truly the most perfect place to stay on the southern Jersey Shore.

    We loved the location and amenities of this property! We were in Stone Harbor for a wedding at the Yacht Club and this was the perfect place. Comfortable, clean and modern, with plenty of room for the five adults in our group. We all loved it. The owner was great to work with and responded promptly and kindly. Would definitely book again.

    This place totally blew my family and I away- from the location to the view to the beautifully decorated and quaint little home this place was perfection!!! If you are looking for a nice little, peaceful getaway- this is for you!! It wasnt too warm due to the time of year but while we were here the home was nice and cozy and there are 2 sliding glass doors that you can open up to get the most breathtaking view and breeze from the bay! The outside space is perfect for families to relax, cook out and enjoy the views. We got to do a little crabbing as well which my daughter absolutely loved! Everything is included (well except for the bait!) there is also seating under a nice big covered deck with a heated table! Close to all the shops and restaurants in Stone Harbor! We will definitely be back during the warmer months to enjoy more crabbing and maybe even try some kayaking! ;)

    We had a great stay on the tidal backwaters. The house was super clean, well-stocked and equipped, and everything was as advertised. Host communication was excellent. Great location for visiting various Cape May area locations. We particularly enjoyed the large covered deck and some awesome sunsets. Hope to return.

    My family loves back bay vacationing. We have rented other properties along this strip in the past but this was by far the best. Property owner is very responsive. The property is beautiful. Modern layout, everything is updated, charming decor. We never left! We kayaked daily (provided), went crabbing (provided) and dined on the deck with a beautiful view of the back bay and all the creatures that inhabit it. My kids even saved a few turtles! We will definitely come back!

    My little family from Michigan, (my husband, our 2 yr old, and I), have been trying to get to Philadelphia for over a year to visit my brother... but I was not feeling the big-city-vibe with a wild & crazy toddler at the moment. So, I looked up the closet area on the ocean to Philly I could possibly find and talked my brother into meeting us there-- and it worked!!!!! I found Frank's place, (only just over an hour from Philly), and we had a mini family reunion on the Jersey Shore! Ha! It was an AMAZING LOCATION!!!!! We spent a lot of time at the Stone Harbor beach off 93rd Street; an entire day at the Wildwood Boardwalk & Morey's Pier; explored Cape May beaches & shops several times, including putt-putt golf at Sunset Beach; enjoyed dinner at The Watering Hull, & Stone Harbor Bar & Grill, and coffee at Cafe Noir. .... But my favorite part was the actual house and THAT COVERED DOCK!!!!!!!!!!!! We kayaked and crabbed off that dock, and had a fire almost every night. It was awesome. Thank you for opening up your house to our family, Frank!! We can't wait to plan our next trip! There's so much to see and do on the shore! This was absolutely the EXACT vacation-vibe that my family was searching for!! Thank you, again!! --The Lacys

    Whether your crabbing off the dock or watching sunsets, or roasting s’mores with the family or friends, you can’t get better than this. Sipping wine and having cocktails to end the day was delightful. We had the best time ever here and would definitely go back. Stone Harbor is a beautiful town to see!!! Lisa c
