Good beach towns to rent in - S of PPB, N of CM?
We want to do a beach house with two other families this summer - in NJ - but not all the way in Cape May where we usually vacation. I'm hoping to come a bit north since they're all coming down from NH. What would be, say, South of Pt Pleasant, North of Cape May/Wildwood, that would be good for three active families, totaling six adults and 7 kids between the ages of 6 and 12?
TIA!

LBI
Ocean City (but it's a dry town)
LBI!
I could be mistaken, but I think there's a Nestie's dad on here who owns a real estate company in LBI. I'm sure he could help you. I **think** it's Katie (the photographer).
True!
I think you should really go to seaside!
LAVALLETTE!!!!!!! But I am biased! Close enough to enjoy the sights of Seaside if you want, close enough to PP for the boardwalk, great restaurants and a nice, quiet beach town! Ocean Beach, Silver Beach, Bayhead, Mantaloking, Ortley are all other nice areas near Lava!
Otherwise I'd agree with LBI....but I like the quieter areas. We stay in Harvey Cedars with my ILs and it's quiet....and not a lot to do right in walking distance. You have to drive to most stuff.
with kids, i would definitely do ocean city because of the boardwalk. LBI has an amusement park area and a water park... but ocean city has a whole boardwalk with all kinds of games, rides, food, etc.... i think it would great for kids around your son's age.
its a dry town, but just pack your own :-) its actually good because it keeps most of the "JErsey Shore" shadys out :-)
Sorry duplicate!

Vacation, 2011
Ventor, Margate, Ocean City, Stone Harbor although Stone Harbor is pretty south and close to Cape May I love it there! We never stayed but we always stop there on our way home from CM.
