Stone Harbor, New Jersey
In 1956 my parents bought a shore house in Stone Harbor on seven mile island. All eight of the children grew up there in the summers. The simplicity and beauty of the house became part of our lives and our hearts. Life was simpler then with lots of sun, sand and good food. When my Dad died and left us the house we didn’t want to change a thing about it, as if that could somehow bring us back to the joyous past. It really can’t bring you back but the house is as simple today as it was in 1955 when we bought it. We have added a new kitchen, air conditioning, cable tv, internet and a better heating system for the winter, but the feel of the place is still 1960 strong. If you are looking for the seashore the way it used to be come and share our house
Linens and towels are plentiful but many are torn. Outside shower does not have proper handles and is rusty. Never in 30 years of renting beach properties have I been asked to wash, dry and fold linens before leaving. Nor have I ever rented where a cleaning crew did not come in between tenants.
This was our second year at this property. Location is great. All things needed for the beach. Everyone enjoyed it!
Great beach house with lots of amenities!
We had a fantastic week for our annual SH family vacation. Plenty of room for our group of 7. What a treat not to have to pack linens and towels!! The house was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. I especially appreciated the many beach chairs and the beach cart in the garage. The location is superb and I could just imagine the years of family memories the owners have shared at this home. PS lack of AC was not an issue as the nightly ocean breeze kept us cool!
Great location. Everything we needed for a great beach trip was there. Exactly as described by owner.
Stone Harbor, old-school! Lovely house; enjoyed sitting on the porch at night. Nicely equipped kitchen, and lots of amenities (linens, towels, beach toys); plus we really loved being so close to the beach.
We enjoyed renting this home for the week. Walked everywhere-to beach and town. Comfortable beds and lots of amenities. A historic home, well-maintained and full of love.
We loved the proximity to the beach and town. The house has everything you need for a week at the beach!
A lovely old time Jersey beach house. One block from the beach. Nothing fancy, but everything we needed. We will be back.
The house was perfect for our family of 5. The porch was wonderful for enjoying quiet evenings in, the house itself was immaculate. It has clearly been lovingly maintained. It reminded me very much of the house I grew up going to 40 years ago.
