Perfect Getaway!

Alison's house is adorable!! She really puts a lot time and thought into her decor. I appreciated this because it created such a nice atmosphere vs. some rentals that are just bare bones. The front porch and front yard were my favorite; comfortable and clean furniture and the house is set back from the road so it's quiet and relaxing. The location was great-such a quick walk to Asbury Avenue which is where the local downtown shops and restaurants are. It was also nice to go for a run on the 9th street bridge in the mornings. Alison was also very responsive and informative through the whole process. I could go on and on about all of the wonderful things! I will definitely be coming back!

Cute Cottage in Ocean City

My husband, pup, and I spent a couple of relaxing days in this cottage at the Jersey Shore. The size was perfect for the three of us and the fenced yard was a bonus. The cottage was in walking distance to tons of shops, restaurants, and the boardwalk. The owner, Allison, was a pleasure to work with stores, and the boardwalk. Alison

Cozy beach house

Alison was very nice and communicative. The house was beautiful and we enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately the weather was not cooperating but it more than satisfied our needs for house hunting in the area.

A perfect getaway!

Beautiful little cottage packed to the gills with amenities! There is nothing to want for. We bought our suitcase, two dogs and had a blast. The fenced in yard was everything for the pups. We had such a great time, we booked again before we left.

Perfect for long weekend

We love Ocean City and typically stay in the South End. We wanted to have our pup stay with us this trip so this was a good choice. Owner is terrific-easy to reach and responsive. Location is on a rather busy street, set back from the street. House is tiny, well stocked with one small bathroom. Overall very comfortable for a short stay. We will bring bikes next trip!

Charming, Comfortable, and Convenient

I live in Florida and visit my mom every summer. This year, we decided to get away for a few days in Ocean City, NJ. We needed a first floor option for my elderly mom & pet-friendly accommodations for my dog. With its fenced in yard, convenient location, beautiful decor & comfy beds, this place was perfect. Alison was a pleasure to work with, too. Highly recommended!

Second time renting, still exceeds expectations!

This was my second time staying here. The cottage did not disappoint! Beautifully decorated, clean and best of all pet friendly! Located within walking distance from the shops on Asbury and the boardwalk, you get a lot of bang for your buck with this gem. The property manager is a dream to work with. She’s personable and takes care to ensure your stay meets your expectations. Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfy relaxing stay in OC NJ!

Cutest house in Ocean City!

We had a wonderful weekend at the Bella Cottage! Was close to the bay, but yet could walk to the beach and boardwalk with ease. Great house with a perfect yard! We would definitely love to stay here again! Thanks Alison for being a perfect host and sharing your beautiful house with us!

Quick getaway in the heart of Ocean City

The home is beautifully decorated and feels like a home away from home. The area is very quiet and walkable. I took my family for a last minute long weekend and Allie and her home were very welcoming. Also note the home is decorated in lots of Paris decor, perfect for our upcoming Olympics. Very enjoyable!

This property is just as listed ! Besides being adorable it’s loaded with state of the art appliances. The fenced in yard was great for our fur baby and front porch was spacious and private! The kitchen was fully stocked with pots,pans and ,plenty of dishes and silverware. It’s a lovely cottage and well maintained. We all agreed it was the best place we stayed in in the last 20 years!
