Vacation rentals in Manahawkin, Stafford Township

This was our second year staying at Francesca’s place in Barnegat Light. Another year, another great stay! Love that the beach is steps away, and the place is walking distance from most of what you’ll want to do in town. And the unit is beautiful - one of the nicest of any I have rented in Barnegat Light.

We visited LBI during the off-season during a period of showers and fearsome wind. Ricky's house could not have been a better spot. Restaurants and activities we sought were short drives away. (Well, the entire island is a short drive during November.) The home was snug, quiet and welcoming throughout the wild weather. We especially enjoyed the gas fireplace. Panoramic views of the beach and ocean, including Barnegat lighthouse and inlet, are awesome from two floors and outside decks. On a clear night, the sky was spectacular with even the Milky Way visible. The house was clean and well appointed with more equipment in the kitchen than we would ever use. We will gladly return.

My overall experience visiting this estate was awesome. My friends and I enjoyed the spacious living room and comfortable bedrooms. It was a perfect location to stay for the polar bear plunge event.

The house was the perfect getaway for my family. The kids had a great time in the bunk room and my mother in law truly enjoyed sitting on one of the many decks and enjoying the view. It was so easy to get to and from the beach, and was also walkable to anything else we wanted to do.

The house was clean and spotless. John the host is also super responsive when and provides clear instructions on how to check in and makes it super simple. It doesn't have that big of a backyard, but its good for what it is and the house isn't in a bad spot. I would recommend staying here just because it was clean, super easy check-in and check-out and not too far from the Ocean resort and casino. (15 minute walk)

We had a wedding in Smithville and spent the Thanksgiving holiday at this house. There was 11 of us and we had plenty of space. House was clean and comfortable.

Great family house. 6 adults and two very little children. Kitchen is spacious and the large and beautiful island was a great gathering spot for all. Grilled out in secluded yard that has outdoor furniture and fire pits. Added perks of boogie boards, beach umbrellas, etc. Large grocery store around corner. This house had everything that we needed for a week of respite and family fun.

Was a great place for our family to spend the weekend. It was easy to walk to the beach and boardwalk as well as local restaurants and a nice playground. The place had the perfect shore feel and fit our crew easily. It was great having access to some chairs and beach tags as also.
