Making a point of making travelers feel at home
Small and unstuffy, Point Pleasant was once a summer resort town, but in recent decades its year-round residents have given the area a laid-back feel. Your Point Pleasant vacation rental won't be right on the ocean, but the Atlantic is just a short drive (or a long walk) away. In the meantime, visitors and residents alike get to enjoy a quieter beachfront along the Manasquan River or Beaver Dam Creek. With its low-key restaurants, quaint museums, and picturesque fishing spots, Point Pleasant makes travelers feel like they've stumbled on a sunnier, sandier version of home.

A serene shoreline _ Point Pleasant's riverfront beaches
The family-friendly charm of the town is on display at its beaches on the Manasquan River, and any Point Pleasant vacation rental will be within 2 miles of both. For swimmers, River Avenue Beach is the place to be in summer, with its white sands, playground, and picnic area. If you'd prefer a peaceful walk with a view, Maxson Avenue Beach is ideal.
