The beautiful backyard was just as pictured. My grandchildren enjoyed the pool, and we enjoyed our coffee on the covered porch. The space was family-friendly with many activities provided for our use. The location was walkable to playgrounds, parks and some restaurants. The beaches at Sandy Hook were a very short ride away.

A LOT OF FUN BUT A FEW DISCREPANCIES

We had a wonderful time; the yard and pool were beautiful and we enjoyed them. There was terrific privacy, as advertised. However the house is small and very cluttered with furniture and owner's belongings. Additionally the basement had a strong busty odor, and the "beds" advertised in the basement were child-size bunk beds only. The only TV was is in the basement but it did not work. The air conditioners work but they were all very ancient. Additionally there was no air conditioning at all in the basement. Also, when we arrived there was old food in the refrigerator, which we threw out.Despite these issues, we all had nice vacation and we enjoyed the near-by beaches and restaurants.
