Even for those of us who live near the beach and can visit whenever we want, it still feels like a pretty special destination. Something about feeling the sand between your toes and the cool breeze blowing over the water has the ability to make you feel immediately relaxed. Here in New Jersey, we've got no shortage of amazing spots to spend time on the water, whether you're looking for shoreline along the Atlantic Ocean or prefer to check out our multitude of lakes and rivers. No matter what season it is, many of us love being on the coast, because a walk along the waterfront is a tranquil experience that has no substitute. If you're looking for the perfect place to spend some time by the water, we think you'll love the charming Airbnb we're featuring today. The Octopus Cottage is an adorable, colorful cephalopod-themed hideout in East Township, New Jersey that's right by the water and offers up a great spot for a few nights away.
This beachfront home is a 1940s Millman cottage that's been renovated with all the modern amenities you can't live without.
One of the main draws to this place is its close proximity to the beach. It's only about 30 steps away from a private beach path. Several kayaks and life jackets are available for use during your stay, and the fishing is great here.
You don't even have to go to the beach to have a fun time outdoors, though - the backyard hot tub is wonderful. You'll also find an assortment of yard games to enjoy.
The huge couch is perfect for watching Netflix on the 50-inch 4K flat-screen TV, and with high-speed WiFi, you don't have to worry about buffering.
The bedroom features another smart TV, and between the primary bedroom's queen-sized bed and the sleeper sofa's queen-sized pullout mattress, up to four guests can stay in this cozy cottage.
Whether you're a family looking for a beachfront getaway or you're seeking a romantic couple's retreat (or even a solo adventure!), the Octopus Cottage is an adorable spot that's perfect for just about any sort of traveler who wants comfort and a fun vibe with proximity to the water.
