The house is located in an incredible neighborhood and is super walkable to the beach, boardwalk, and local shops. However, the house is quite old and there are a lot of quirks that come with that. If you’re expecting perfect cleanliness, modern furnishings, and comfortable beds — this is NOT the place for you. We had a lot of issues after we checked in, some were addressed by the hosts, some were not. We felt pretty disappointed overall and that’s reflected in our star ratings for different aspects. There were not enough towels or toilet paper for the amount of guests the house advertises so plan accordingly. We felt that this was a huge oversight, especially for a family vacation rental at the beach. The window units are old and incredibly loud so be aware in case you’re a light sleeper. Also, the fridge was broken upon arrival and never got fixed our entire stay. Hosts completely stopped responding on our second to last day. Not as advertised!!
Fridge temp after we arrived. The thermometer was already there and never got below 40 degrees our whole stay.

Can’t beat the location. Massive porch. Terrific outdoor shower, private, hot water, lots of hooks, bench, great water pressure. Kitchen had everything you would need. Rooms are good sized, house is in a quiet neighborhood. We had a mini family reunion and everyone loved the house. Thank you to our hosts!

The BEST porch in Wildwood

We were three families with kids ranging from 4 to 16 years old. We enjoyed this lovely traditional shore house over a long Labor Day weekend. It is ideally situated in a quiet residential neighborhood, close to the beach, and just a short walk to the best bakery in Wildwood! We enjoyed everything about our stay here and hope to stay here again next summer!

great porch and location

This home is great for a larger group. I stayed with my brother and his family - 7 of us altogether. We used the porch for family meals and games. The garage has multiple beach chairs, bikes, boogie boards, beach combers, sand toys - all you could want! It was our 2nd stay and we hope to be back again!

Best weekend at the shore

It was such a gift to be able to return to the beach house from my childhood! The porch is still the best one in the Crest, and the house hasn’t lost any of its charm. We just love this home and the memories it has.

First visit to Wildwood

We had a great time at the house. It was close to the beach, and easy to get to the boardwalk, a quiet neighborhood we felt comfortable in, easy access to groceries, and with a porch that we had great fun sitting on.

Best porch stay

As advertised the porch makes the property. The house is very old but that gives it a unique and comfortable feel. Plenty of room for the ten of us. The house could use a little work on the upstairs shower but it still did the trick. No complaints here!

The listing doesn’t do it justice

This is a beautiful historic home. Perfect for the beach and with everything that you could need in terms of deck chairs and boogie boards. We had a group of 8 (4 kids - 12, 12, 14 and 17) and the house still felt spacious. We loved the veranda and loved the outdoor shower even more. Try Rick’s seafood in N Wildwood if you’re looking for great sea food. Order the night before and eat it on the porch.

Charming Older Cottage

The house looked so lovely, smelled great, looked clean. All went very well for all but one who was allergic to something in the house??? He had to sleep outside in the Jeep camper. We knew they rent to dog people and that was fine as we have dogs. If there had been cats there that could have been the issue, but who knows. Our son in law has allergy problems, but nothing as bad as this ever occurred. He loved the porch! Thanks

Family Vacation

The vacation rental was exactly what we needed for our family vacation. We had 8 adults and our dog and there was plenty of space for all of us. We spent most of our time either on the beach or sitting and enjoying the awesome large porch. Learning the history of the house was beautiful and to see original pieces inside was priceless. The communication between the owners was prompt. It was our first time in Wildwood Crest and thrilled to have rented this beautiful historic home.

There was some dog hair from the people before us, but overall it was very clean. The location was great for going to the beach. The porch was fantastic. We were out there every morning and every night. We discovered a great bakery around the corner from are house and went there three times for their Apple fritters they are delicious. I would highly recommend this house. Thank you again we had a great time.

Best Porch

No exaggeration, it is a great porch. We spent many hours talking, eating, reading and just relaxing on the porch. The house is very old and dark but it has a quaint relaxing feel to it. The inside shower is an antique tube updated but the outdoor shower was so wonderful we never used the indoor one. We were close to the beach and the Boardwalk which was great with small children. Also Britton’s is right around the corner for coffee and their amazing apple fritters.

Close to restaurants and the beach

Fun property. Great for the Bear foot country concert. If you are looking for a five star hotel you won't find it in this area, but this house was full.of charm and clean. Very old home, but that's what we loved about it. It was in the 90s and it stayed cool the whole time we were there. Our favorite thing was the porch where we spent most of our time in rockers and grilling. We rented a golf cart to get around. It's hard to park and drive a large vehicle in that town. The beach was only a couple of blocks away, but the board walk is closer to a couple of miles. It's walkable as long as you don't have anyone with bad legs or feet though. The host was always quick to answer and was amazing. They don't provide sheets and towels but everything else is there. You can rent those from Wildwoodrentals.com The sheets and blankets were very clean through them. The host provides beach chairs and toys and bicycles so you don't need to rent those. I would highly recommend this property

Great location and space

Loved the location! Perfect space for a large group of friends. At first glance the property is a bit outdated and dark, but the vibe was vintage, and there was more light after we opened the window shades. Outdoor shower was a huge plus. Owner was helpful and responsive. A few things were a little less than clean when we arrived (crumbs, dust, toilet); otherwise no complaints.
