Having stayed for years at proprietor Randy's Ocean Grove B&B, I have nothing but lovely commentary for the quaint, gay establishment, in every sense of the word -- quite happy, beautifully hosted, great breakfast, an EASY walk to the beach, and rooms that smack of the Grove's history. And the afternoon special delivery cookies are delightful.

There are many bed and breakfast options available at Ocean Grove but they tend to be expensive and overly restrictive such as requiring a minimum three night stay during peak periods. Not the Melrose. I had a four night stay (two consecutive weekends) in August 2011 and absolutely loved it. Randy Bishop is the perfect host and will ensure you...
