We absolutely loved this house and location!
The house itself is very charming - it has so much history to it, which we always appreciate. This of course means it's not the spiffiest, newest home with all the latest and greatest appliances and such - if that's what you're searching for, look elsewhere. But if you're looking for something homey that meets simple needs and fits a lot of adults, this house is perfect! (I wouldn't recommend it for children, as there are a lot of levels and noise travels easily throughout the entire home.)
The location is wonderful if you're looking to get away from civilization - which is precisely what we wanted. It is tucked away on Bound Brook "Island" (it was originally a real island until they dammed it up a century ago, but now they are restoring it to be an island once again!), and you have to drive about 5 minutes on a fairly rough road (our group had a small SUV and a small sedan, both were completely fine, you simply have to make sure to go slowly). Once you make it, you likely will only hear nature for the duration of your stay! The stars are astonishingly clear, it's so fantastic to sit and stare at them while next to the fire pit outside.
The bayside beach is about a 15 minute walk from the house, but do keep in mind the mosquitos are pretty vicious, as it is marshland. We chose to drive the 2 minutes to the beach entrance when we went, which resulted in far less mosquito bites.
Overall, if you're looking for a restorative remote getaway where you can commune with nature, I recommend staying here!
