Very good

Very disappointed with cottage. Run down and not as advertised. Host was very friendly but overall cleanliness and supplies were not as expected. Kitchen was not outfitted, Garbage can didn’t even have a top. Needed to buy towels and utensils for kitchen.
Daniel's cottage is spacious (certainly for one person), clean, and well located, just a short walk into town or to the beach. The check-in instructions were easy to follow and everything went smoothly. Beach badges a major plus! Would definitely stay there again.
One review I read before I booked cottage was that it " wasn't as quaint as pictured". I would have to say that was an understatement. Peeling walls, no privacy on window in bathroom ( blind didn't work), air mattresses (x2) didn't inflate, picture fell off wall in bedroom and left on floor, garbage overflowing in back of main house. Had to call VRBO for check in code to be sent when we arrived. Tried to get money back however became an argument with owner.
Daniel runs a great property in spring lake, 5 minute walk from the train, cozy with the essentials (beach chairs and badges) provided for. You can spend the entire trip without need for a car if you like to walk. 10-12 min walk to beach or 10 minute walk to town. Very safe, residential neighborhood.
The only reason we’re knocking this to 4 stars is because there was a power issue (took out some of the lights but all the essentials including AC remained active) and cleanliness (unit could’ve used a scrub - quite a few spiders in every room). However, Daniel was incredibly responsive and attentive, bringing us additional lights, a tower fan, flashlights and having an electrician come out to assess. I imagine this will not happen again in the future and we’d happily stay here again.
My wife and I stayed here as a last Summer 23 getaway before back to school
Great location, near everything and very quiet. Daniel the host is great, prompt with communication and flexible. Everything you want
We had a great time
We went to a concert in Asbury and this cottage was the perfect place for our stay. It was about a 15-20 min Uber ride to the venue. Cottage was clean and as advertised. Communication with the host was a pleasure as well.
We had a very nice time in Spring Lake and having this very quaint little cottage to stay in was a big part of the reason why. Daniel is great! Very responsive and always available. We had everything we needed. I highly recommend this!
We very much enjoyed our stay at Dan’s property. It was a charming beach town rental with a simple check in and check out process. Dan being very accommodating was a huge plus!
This is a lovely and clean cottage for a couple or single looking to be near Spring Lake. Dan was incredibly kind and flexible as we changed our arrival time on him.
