Spring Lake, New Jersey - 1000 Places to See Before You Die on Waymarking.com

A quiet residential beach community, Spring Lake is only 5 miles from the struggling Asbury Park. The town does have a boardwalk...but, unlike other Jersey shore towns, this boardwalk has no frills...no arcades, amusements, fast-food joints. The 1,000 Places book cites three upscale romantic Bed and Breakfasts as the attraction to see here. The coordinates above are for The Breakers located at 1507 Ocean Avenue right across from the beach. The Black Trumpet is right next door...and The Sea Crest is just around the block.

Visit Instructions:
Because of the vastness of many of the "non-localized" sites (Gobi Desert, Great Wall of China), waymark owners are encouraged to allow visits that reflect different perspectives and experiences.
Localized waymark sites (Structures, Landmarks, Businesses) should reflect standard waymarking visit criteria (Logs & photos).
