Clean, quiet & comfortable

My wife and I just got back from a week here (July '09) and we found the place exactly as advertised. Our first impression was a great one, the place was clean and quiet, roomy and comfortable.
We were happy to find so many of the things that are normally missing in a cottage rental, with nice pots and pans and other kitchen accouterments including a wonderful assortment of sharp knives.
There seemed to be an attention to the small details that make living away from home easier and more comfortable. And isn't that how a vacation should be? Lots of storage space, closets, sufficient numbers of lamps and lights, all the appliances working. Making the internet connection was the essence of simplicity.
The location on the golf course, is wonderful, so quiet and pretty. We loved having an open deck AND a screened porch. We could be 'outside' anytime we wanted.
And we found the owner to be an absolute pleasure to work with. He was VERY responsive and always went out of his way to make sure we had what we needed to make our vacation a successful one, and answered all our questions quickly.
About Brigantine, there are not tons of things to do there, which actually made it more appealing for us. Even, that being said, there are a couple of decent restaurants, places to get ice cream, beer, wine & liquor and of course, great beaches.
I will mention that I am an avid cyclist and like to ride distances, 25, 50, 75+ miles. A Brigantine location is not conducive to such riding given that the only access is via Atlantic City and entirely by expressway type roads. Unless, of course, you don't mind putting the bike on the car and driving to a place nicer to ride. On the other hand, if you like riding just a couple of miles, or riding to a bakery, out for coffee, ice cream, etc. then Brigantine works just fine for that.
We'd go back again, without hesitation, and hope we'll have the chance to.
