My girlfriend and I had a great weekend staying with Marsha and Ed. The apartment is perfect, very private and comfortable. They are great hosts, and are just as happy to keep to themselves or chat with their guests. Marsha clearly takes hosting very seriously, and is very accessible throughout your stay for any minor issues that may come up. She leaves breakfast items (granola, english muffins/jam, eggs) in the fridge so breakfast can be self served, which was great. The location is about 20-30 minutes away from most attractions (beaches, GREAT seafood restaurants) which we found ideal as it was away from all the big crowds in a more rural setting. Playing with the goats and her dogs was just icing on the cake. We happen to love animals, but if you aren't as excited about the critters as we were they certainly keep to themselves. All in all, this was exactly what we were looking for, a weekend retreat close to NYC but far away enough that you really feel like you're getting away from it all.
