Beachfront Sunsets on the Water at Oakwood Beach

You’ll instantly relax when you arrive at this private beachfront home on the beautiful Delaware River (2020 River of the year!). This hidden gem is off the beaten path, making it perfect for you to escape the hustle and bustle of your busy day-to-day. You’ll love the amazing sunsets and water fun — walk out the backdoor directly onto the large deck and sandy beach.

Message us for information about the local wineries and distilleries or for kayaking!
The space:

The home has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths including a first floor, large bedroom with ensuite.

Easy access road with little traffic. Parking for 5 cars (1 in front driveway, 4 in our private parking across the street). Sleeps 11 with 6 beds (3 convertibles).

Walk out the door and onto the quiet beach, sit by the water, walk along the shore, go for a swim or enjoy water activities you love!

Salem County is a rural agricultural area, not your typical Jersey shore experience. There aren’t bars or many stores, but you’ll see plenty of farm stands on your way to town filled with Jersey produce.

Most residents live on this is quiet beach year-round, so please be respectful, especially with your noise level. No parties are permitted. Quiet hours 10-7. Mid stay cleaning can be easily arranged per your preference. Please let us know.

The beach is beautiful and the water is great for swimming or water sports; however, there are no lifeguards: use of the beach and other outside areas are at renter's own risk (host is not responsible for any injury as such).

Note that there is a video doorbell and a security camera facing the back deck that record video when motion is detected 24/7.

Relaxing Vacation House
The location was great for us because it was relatively close to Newark, DE and Philadelphia. Water views were great from so much of the house and owners had thought of every possible touch to make people feel at home. There were plenty of outlets, chargers, TVs, tables & chairs, hooks in bathrooms, nightlights, etc. The fridge was free of all sorts of open condiments that are probably supposed to be helpful for guests but that drive my husband crazy as they've taken up half the fridge in the last couple of houses we've stayed in. It was too cold and windy for us to enjoy the outdoors while we were there but owners had flip-flops, towels, hats, bug spray, sunscreen etc in case people forget something. We would definitely stay here again.

A surprising gem of a house and location
This exceeded our expectations in every way. A beautiful view, a well=appointed house, and a lovely location. This stretch of beach on the Delaware River is one of NJ's best kept secrets, so it's with a heavy heart that I give such an enthusiastic review. The eight of us could not have had a better stay here over a sunny Thanksgiving week.

Best Sunsets
The home owners did a great job of having everything you would need for stay at the beach. The beach was quiet and accessible from the back yard. There was a spot in the house for every family member to hang out and enjoy time relaxing. The sunsets were just stunning. Great panaramic view from the living room.

Beach front and beautiful home!
We were very impressed with this property and had a wonderful stay! The house is clean, updated, open floor plan and lovely and you step right out onto a private deck and beach. Water was calm for the kids to play in and when they needed a break it was just steps back to the house. For being a beachfront property, it was actually quiet and secluded too, and for most of the week it was just our family playing on the beach or in the water. The owner supplied everything and was such a gracious host. Linens, regular towels, beach towels, water shoes, flip flops, kayak, paddle board, beach toys, umbrellas, beach chairs, toiletries, care package, etc were all provided! The house was very well stocked as well! We were so happy with the house!!! Not as much to do in the nearby area but if you are looking to just stay on the beach then it’s perfect!

Perfect
The beach is right outside the back door and there is minimal waves and current. The kids did not get out of the water all week. The house is also nicely stocked with anything you may forget.
