Gary was an amazing host and was extremely fast in communicating to every question we had during our whole stay. Was surprised by the access to all the perks offered in the space, such as ample air conditioning and a full kitchen. Great location for a quick drive to anything around Highlands, and especially to the beaches in Sandy Hook.
