We had a wonderful time with our family. We loved the location (close to beach and bakery), yard, porch and the outside shower. The garage filled with beach accessories, bikes and even a beach cart and wagon were SO convenient for us and so appreciated. The house was very charming and had plenty of space for all of us. House was perfect and would definitely rent again!

The house is in a perfect location. If you stay here, you won't need to drive the entire time. Very nice yard for pets. The shower upstairs was one of my favorite things about the house. The bathroom is so pretty and the water pressure is fantastic. Overall, a really nice experience for a beach getaway!

First visit to Wildwood

We had a great time at the house. It was close to the beach, and easy to get to the boardwalk, a quiet neighborhood we felt comfortable in, easy access to groceries, and with a porch that we had great fun sitting on.

Best weekend at the shore

It was such a gift to be able to return to the beach house from my childhood! The porch is still the best one in the Crest, and the house hasn’t lost any of its charm. We just love this home and the memories it has.

The BEST porch in Wildwood

We were three families with kids ranging from 4 to 16 years old. We enjoyed this lovely traditional shore house over a long Labor Day weekend. It is ideally situated in a quiet residential neighborhood, close to the beach, and just a short walk to the best bakery in Wildwood! We enjoyed everything about our stay here and hope to stay here again next summer!

great porch and location

This home is great for a larger group. I stayed with my brother and his family - 7 of us altogether. We used the porch for family meals and games. The garage has multiple beach chairs, bikes, boogie boards, beach combers, sand toys - all you could want! It was our 2nd stay and we hope to be back again!

Another great week at 207 East Lavender!

This is our second time staying at this family friendly home. Easy walk to the beach, boardwalk, restaurants, mini-golf and all the things the kids like to do. Once you arrive, you never have to move your car again. A lovely home with an inviting set of porches and private backyard. Ideal for our large family in every way. Thanks to Cynthia and Mark for a perfect stay.

Best porch stay

As advertised the porch makes the property. The house is very old but that gives it a unique and comfortable feel. Plenty of room for the ten of us. The house could use a little work on the upstairs shower but it still did the trick. No complaints here!

Ideal family shore home!!

My husband, two sons and their families ( 4 grandchildren, ranging in age from 3 to 17), as well as three dogs rented this great home for two nights Father's Day weekend. Remarkably comfortable, well-equipped: Interesting range of games ( from Twister to Risk), superb front porch, good location. Owner very immediately responsive to two minor concerns that we discovered on check-in. This home has good bones!!! We loved this place!!

Family Vacation

The vacation rental was exactly what we needed for our family vacation. We had 8 adults and our dog and there was plenty of space for all of us. We spent most of our time either on the beach or sitting and enjoying the awesome large porch. Learning the history of the house was beautiful and to see original pieces inside was priceless. The communication between the owners was prompt. It was our first time in Wildwood Crest and thrilled to have rented this beautiful historic home.
