About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
"The Cupcake" Guest House, 2 blocks to the beach in Ocean Grove, sleeps 2-3
IDEAL LOCATION: Two blocks from Ocean Grove’s private controlled-access beach (2 adult beach entry passes included with rental); two blocks to Main Street dining and shopping; 10-minute stroll on the Boardwalk or over the footbridges to bustling, entertainment-rich Asbury Park.

7-day minimum rental year 'round. Check-in/check-out usually Saturdays-only in summer, but ask us if you need a different day. 7-day minimum still applies. Rentals by the month or of unusual lengths may be available in the Fall/Winter/Spring: Ask!

Everything I needed
The property had everything I needed to get work done and then head out for a daily surf. It was fun to get to know the owners.

what a shame
The unit is an adorable Studio in a great location. Enough space for 1 or 2. No more. It's a shame it is "furnished" so cheaply. The daybed is long enough if you are 5' 3". The convertible "couch" is old, cheesy, small and difficult to open. The refrigerator was hotel size(2'+). Would not recommend. No apparent effort by owners to offer a pleasant living experience

Enjoyed my stay!
Had a wonderful time at “The Cupcake House”. So convenient to the beach and shops on Main Street. House had everything I needed for a week’s stay. Owners were very nice and really care about their guests! Will rent again next year.
