New Jersey Rentals By Owner

With over 50 resort towns and cities, New Jersey is the perfect choice for a vacation rental! From the New Jersey Southern Shore to the Gateway, from Atlantic City to the Skylands, there are many opportunities in the Garden State for some vacation rental fun!
 
Cape May, New Jersey is located where the Delaware Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean and has recently been recognized by The Travel Channel as one of the nation’s Top 10 beaches. The town is world renowned for bird watching – thousands of birds “flock together” at the cape every year! While you’re in Cape May, New Jersey be sure to stop by The Ugly Mug where members can get a mug to hang from the ceiling in anticipation of their next visit. Dozens of westward facing mugs decorate the famous establishment; if the mugs are facing east, they are in tribute to a deceased member.
 
And the coastal state of New Jersey is home to some of the greatest moments in sports history – the first college football game was held in the Garden State in 1869. The first professional basketball game was held in the original Quaker settlement of Trenton, New Jersey. And the first organized baseball game was held between the Knickerbockers Club and the New York Nine in Hoboken, New Jersey. Celebrate America’s favorite pastime and snack on an Oreo cookie – this tasty treat was first sold here!
 
So walk the boardwalk in Atlantic City – it’s the first in the world and is still longest in the world – and take your picture with the Mr. Peanut statue; catch the sunrise at Brigantine Beach; stop by the big grove of cherry trees in Branch Brook Park in Newark; or stop by Princeton and walk the same halls as Toni Morrison, John F. Kennedy, Woodrow Wilson, and James Madison. Whatever you do, you’ll be glad that you booked your New Jersey vacation rental!
