Perfect week on the water!
We had the most wonderful week at the Sandy Hook Beach Cottages. The cottage itself was clean and charming. Opening the door and walking down to the private beach was magical. Location was perfect for walking to shops and restaurants. Dennis was available for any questions and incredibly welcoming. We can’t wait to bring our little family back again for many future vacations!

Jersey Shore escape
I can’t say enough good things about this place. The location is perfect…quiet neighbors, river front with an adorable beach for hermit crab hunting, close to the restaurants of the Highlands, and a quick drive over to Sandy Hook. This is a great home base to explore the Jersey Shore or just to sit and enjoy the view. Parking is easy. The hosts are amazing! Everyday they were working around the property and always had a kind word. Would definitely stay here again!

A great little property with a few cottages that give it a small community feel. Property is very well maintained and Dennis is always adding little improvements. It's a great place to really slow down and relax.

Adorable cabin on the bay!
Clean, quiet, friendly. Perfectly suited my needs. Great location! I will definitely stay again when the need arises. I stayed in "B". There is a Kuerig machine supplied, I prefer a drip coffee maker so I ended up going to the bakery on Bay for morning coffee and that worked out just fine (try the crumb cake!). I also would appreciate a curtain over the blinds or a different type of blind in the back bedroom as the neighbor has a floodlight that kept the room kind of bright all night. These are two nit-picky things and I am confident if I had slowed down long enough ( I had a very busy vacation) to mention them to Dennis or Jennifer they would have accommodated my preferences! Also, an above and beyond thing I noticed- the beach is kept tidy from seaweed, etc that just made it extra nice. I left behind some beach buckets and shovels, hopefully, they will be kept around for others to use when visiting with children. Several of my family members that live in the area stopped by during my stay and commented on what a nice place this is and called it a "hidden gem". I couldn't agree more.

Highlands cottage by the bay
The property is immaculate. The hosts are helpful. The cottages are sweet if not a bit cramped. The are fine for 2 people, but anything else is a bit squishy. The kitchen isn't suited for real cooking, but the BBQ are good and utensils provided..

My heart is full after our stay! The cottage is cozy, quiet and wonderful, and our hosts were incredibly kind and always there when you needed them! I can't wait to go back to the beach to stay with them next year! You really felt like part of a little beach community here! I can not recommend them enough!

Delightful beach vacay, delightful folks
Cottage and property was perfect for us. Bay beach and water view was soul soothing. Safety/privacy: Excellent. We had 2 young kids (ages 5 & 7). Adults were thoroughly able to enjoy ourselves bc the kids could explore, eat at the picnic tables, play on the beach, and run back to the cottage for bathrm breaks, and I could see them very easily with the wide-open property plan. Strangers could not see my kids from the street and kids were not in danger of wandering out into the street as the fun common areas are set back privately from the street. Outdoors: Private beach was awesome. Everything was clean, well maintained, plentiful colorful adirondack seating, picnic tables, gas grills, storage for guest's personal bicycles, beach toys, floaties, umbrellas, chairs. View was beautiful, and we could see across to Sandy Hook. The sky view was also amazing for stargazing and one of the other guests even brought their telescope. Cottage interiors: Clean, well maintained, with welcoming beach decor. AC kept us cool. Microwave, keurig coffee maker, gas range, oven with broiler, top freezer-fridge made cooking/eating-in very easy. Really valuable for us, bc kids still can't get the vax. Bathroom is clean, snug, compact, with shower no tub. Parking: provided less than 1/2 block away. My car was safe from street traffic. Valuable, as beach street parking is tight. Location: Fabulous. Walking distance to both casual and upscale waterfront restaurants, convenience stores, and biking distance to the start of the bike path which fronts the water. Super close drive or long bike ride to Sandy Hook Beach, Lighthouse, and Fort Hancock. Kids did a great Junior National Park Ranger Osprey tour. Ferry to NYC was in walking distance (although parking is free there)! So easy to spend the morning in NYC for siteseeing, and back by afternoon to the beach. Owners: Delightful kind family. Onsite, very accommodating and friendly. Very responsive communications before we arrived, and easy going and accessable during our stay. We felt well cared for. If they weren't booked solid, we would have asked to extend our stay. Very enjoyable experience. We'll be back.

Best Hidden Secret in Highlands
From the moment we arrived Jenniffer and Dennis made us feel so welcomed into the little beach side community. The cottages are spotless and supplied with all of your cooking and essential needs. Steps away from the perfect little beach with a courtyard that’s perfect for gathering and playing, bubbles, riding scooters, and more. My daughter (9) had a blast and loved the freedom to go back and forth from the cottage to the beach. By the time we left after our week stay we felt more like we were leaving a second home than a vacation spot. It’s safe to say we will be returning next year! Highly recommend. Jenniffer and Dennis are outstanding hosts!

Perfect Family Get Away
We stumbled upon this gem at the last minute when we were looking to get away at the last minute to the beach as a family of 4 for vacation. We were greeted with smiles and so much help! It is a little community and is so wonderful! Our kids loved being here and it is so quaint and a little piece of heaven in a quiet place. Our kids are 6 and 9 and they were safe and happy and it was plenty enough room to live and play. We cooked for almost every meal and the kitchen was perfect! We were within walking distance of many places, a ferry ride, or a quick drive or bike ride away from beaches and beautiful bike trails! It was difficult for us to leave as it became a home away from home and we all made many friendships with all the renters and owners and families! I would recommend 10 out of 10 if you want a family get away!

Hooked on “Happiness”
A prefect getaway with my husband and wheelchair bound son. Jennifer and Dennis are absolutely great hosts that were very attentive and kind. The cottage is the right size of comfort with a quiet and attractive grounds to sit outside, walk down the path to eat outdoors and take early morning strolls along the beach. Easy assess to water attractions and the private beach is great for kids. The entire premise is well maintained and sparkling clean. Hope to go back again and definitely recommend it to everyone.

Shore House Review
I rented this property as a getaway vacation for myself, with the intention of having friends and family stay as guests. This property met all of my needs. I enjoyed the private beach on the property, had a few bonfires on the beach, while also enjoying the grilling and picnic table amenities. The property owner Dennis was kind and even helped me to unload my car upon arrival. Dennis is very attentive and is constantly working towards improving and upgrading the status of the beach bungalows. The caretakers Rueben and Kim were also exceptionally kind towards me- Kim even offered me delicious dinners which I took her up on several times. I would definitely come back here again! I had guests ranging in ages of 4- 65 years old, and all of my guests enjoyed their stay, as well as the property and its location. I was very pleased with my month long stay and experience here at the beach cottages. Even though I came as a single person, I quickly made friends with the neighbors and their children. Everyone on the premises is kind, and the place has a real "family feel". I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a family getaway or just a place to unwind by themselves. Thank you for everything Dennis, Kim and Rueben! I hope to be back there sooner than later! :) Best, Mia D.

Pretty bungalows but lonely
The bungalows were very pretty, freshly done, very nicely decorated but very small, which would have been ok if there were things to do or people to associate with. While their website stated no vacancies for the time frame that I was going to be there, upon arrival, there were no other vacationers except the care takers and one year round tenant. Having a 10 year old with. No one else to play with was a. It brutal. States there is WiFi, but not available in our cabin, states cable, but that means only 5 basic channels, you could not use your own private Netflix account, so we were stranded sort of during extremely hot humid days...not wanting to go outside but staying inside meant staring at the walls. Bathroom was not clean, but they offered to clean it, they stated it should have been clean as. NO one was in the cottage for 3 weeks but there was garbage under bunk beds..and in bathroom. As previously noted, you must bring every spice, salt pepper, oil, everything. The bungalow slept 5 so there were 5 plates 5 cups, 5 forks etc...no information on places to eat in the neighborhood, just a dive Chinese menu and a Italian restaurant. It would have been nice to have a small book, where maybe guests could leave dinner suggestions, or places to go and see... the care takers offered very little conversation, exceptto tell us about their medical issues..swimming was ok, it remember you are actually right beside the dock, so it can be a bit dirty, and there was only 1 chair to sit on with no cushion...we were told we could unload in driveway. It they kept the driveway clear so kids could play, the exception to that was the caretakers car and their friends from across the street.....it would be perfect for family reunions, everyone renting a bungalow...and maybe some activities..sunrise yoga, s’mores nights, I sound like I am complaining but if I had known no one else would have been there and my child could not play with anyone, we would not have booked...on the flirt side if I personally wanted a getaway, all alone, with no one to bother me in solitude ..then this is perfect.

Not clean
There was black hairs all over the bathroom walls and shower. Nowhere to set anything in bathroom, not even one towel hook. The towels weren’t bleached, appeared soiled. Then there’s the front door(coded) that we tried 12 times one night to get in the joint. The manager had to come reset the code. It happened several times. If you wanted to cook, you’d have to buy everything, including salt n pepper. The beach isn’t for swimming either. Also, the walls are thin, listened to the neighbors chatting til 12:AM. Had to pound on the wall in my bunkbed.

I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad experience. Nothing we can do about space, they are bungalows and therefore designed for beach living. As for cleanliness, I appreciate the feedback and will be speaking to our cleaning staff to make sure towels and bathrooms are in satisfactory condition.

Wonderful vacation with everything we needed for a family with a toddler
Our vacation here was absolutely wonderful. The property (eight beach cottages) is beautiful and spotless. The houses are all newly renovated, very clean, have a pretty and modern beach-themed design and have everything you need for cooking etc. The beach of the property is clean and perfect for relaxing in the sun and playing with kids. We even could splash about with our 20-months-old toddler daugher right at the shore for hours, as this property and beach is located in the Sandy Hook bay and has no Atlantic waves crashing (but you can get to those beaches in no time, too!). We also loved the whole area: The city of Highlands and its small town charm with great seafood restaurants, coffee shops, bicycle rentals etc., Hartshorne Woods Park, the Sandy Hook National Park and many things more. Also, if you want to spend one or two days in the big city, with the Seastreak ferry pier just a few minutes from this property, you can get to downton Manhattan in just a little over 30mins. Staying here is perfect for everyone: Families with kids but also couples who want to relax and maybe visit NYC once or twice. Last but not least, the property managers on site took care of everything that came up right away and Francine, who was our contact for the whole booking process, answered all our questions we had before and during our stay right away and was super friendly and obliging. Although we live in Germany and this place is not the closest for us to go on summer vacation, we definitely want to come back some day!
