Casino Pier Guide

One of the great parts of living in New Jersey is that there is no shortage of beaches and boardwalks to visit during the summer months. There’s just something about the salt air in your hair, walking the boardwalk playing games and riding rides the screams Jersey summer to me. Growing up, I spent a lot of time in Seaside Heights, NJ so it was fun to load the kids in the car and head down for a day of fun at Casino Pier and Breakwater Beach Waterpark.

5 Reasons the Pan American Hotel in Wildwood, NJ is Perfect for Families

One of the most important decisions I make when it comes to our trips is where to stay.

Luxury Meets Family Fun at Bungalow Hotel in Long Branch

Bungalow Hotel

Having spent my entire life living here in New Jersey, it sometimes shocks me just how many cities in this state I haven’t been to yet. Well, I did visit Long Branch one other time many, many years ago and it was a quick visit. Actually, we were just driving through.  Last week we headed down to Long Branch as a family for a little rest and relaxation and it was just what we needed. Things have been a little hectic with my husband’s work schedule and my work and finishing up the kids’ school year so we were all ready for a little break. We got that and so much more in just a short little getaway and sometimes that’s all you need. We stayed at Bungalow Hotel and it’s prime location combined with plenty of family friendly fun and amazing accommodations makes it a must-do when visiting the Jersey Shore.  [Read more…] about Luxury Meets Family Fun at Bungalow Hotel in Long Branch
