Lovely home steps from the beach
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house is just steps away from the beach with a great view from the common areas. The host put much thought into making the home comfortable and welcoming. It has a split heat pump to keep the home warm and cooled, as well as a fireplace for those cool wintery days. Town is just down the street and there are plenty of restaurants both in town and near by. A couple of grocery stores as well with reasonable prices for items you might have forgotten. We will definitely return.

We stayed on the coast for 4 nights before dropping our kids off at college. The cottage was quaint and quiet, close to a cute city with cafes and boutique shops. The host was very responsive and we had a nice stay.

So terrific! Cracker Box Palace is special. Comfortable, inviting and user friendly. Please don’t tell anyone about Rockaway Beach. It is a treasure with plenty of restaurant opinions and friendly people. Plus you can visit the busy tourist attractions to the north and south.

Cute, Clean, and Cozy Beach Home
Super cute, clean, and cozy beach home. Loved the interior decor and the proximity to the beach - just a quick walk across the little neighborhood street, down a very short path, then down rock stairs to the beach. The home is very close to the little town of Rockaway, too - maybe half a mile(?) There are two queen beds in their own bedrooms, and one full bathroom. (Also a basement bathroom option, but we personally didn't need it). Fabulous ocean views from the kitchen/dining and the family room. We would stay here again.

Rockaway Vacation
We had an absolutely wonderful time at the crackerbox house. It is very close to the beach, the house was charming, quaint and well laid out. My only feedback for improvement would be to get a more robust selection of kid’s games and 2 more beach chairs. For those that like to watch movies, there was a big selection if available movies. (We never turned on the TV but presumably that all worked).

Quaint and convenient
The house was in a neighborhood of beach homes and very close to the beach. We had a nice view of the sunset through the windows. It was very clean and had all the amenities one would expect. A slight drawback was the nearby neighbors playing music rather loudly, although they turned it off by 10:00. (We were just tired and wanted an earlier bedtime.)

Incredible Beach Property - You Have to Stay Here!
This was an amazing property. The place itself was immaculate and looks like it has been recently updated. It looks like you are walking into a page from Home and Garden when you walk in the front door! The neighborhood is quiet and seemed very safe. Close to the main part of town but not so close that you feel like everyone is on your front step. You have ocean views from the front room and the beach access is literally across the road. The house has beach toys and lawn chairs already and there is a cute "Beach Toy Library" at the access for people to borrow as well. Super neat! One note - the climb down to the beach is a little bit of a scramble down rocks. We had a two-year-old and he did it just fine but if you need a ramp or normal stairs to get down to the beach, that access is a little further down the beach. We would happily stay here again and are eagerly waiting for another long weekend to come back!

College graduation celebration
My daughter recently graduated from university in Colorado. We decided to do a trip to celebrate. Given anywhere in the world, she wanted to come back to Rockaway Beach and stay at the Cracker Box Palace where we had stayed three years prior. The setting is idyllic and the property is perfect. I look forward to a future visit.

Can’t beat the sunsets
Such a great coastal home with an amazing ocean view. Nicely decorated with everything you would need the home was very clean. Nice outdoor space and quiet neighborhood. The sunsets were absolutely incredible right from the house, but we walked across the street to the public access and sat on the bench the second night - breathtaking.

Like the song - they are expecting you
Simply exquisite, the Crackerbox Palace shines in all dimensions. The abundance of windows gives the house a dazzling character that instantly brightens one's mood. The expansive beach is up the path across the street. Undoubtedly, the top rental house in the area is quiet, stocked well, and with intelligent attention to detail—in a word, superb.
