We are so glad we decided to take a chance on VROCNJ when it launched last year! We wanted to maintain an on-line presence, but were dismayed with the increasing costs and inflexibility we found with the existing major on-line booking channels. VROCNJ provides a much needed book direct with owner option. Our homes (listings #16, 17, 18) are ideal for large family reunion bookings.

VROCNJ saved our summer, providing great visibility to families that wished to vacation closer to home. 70% of our rebooking‘s were sourced from this site, along with four new fall bookings. We encourage people to book early and often!

All of this is supported by short, easy to digest tutorials to get you started on successful positioning. On rare occasions I’ve needed additional live support and found the team incredibly prompt and responsive. We are so glad we took that leap of faith to be among the first owners to list our vacation homes. Needless to say, we’ve renewed for...

Due to delayed renovations, we were late getting our property on the market our first rental year. However, soon after speaking with Duane at VROCNJ I felt at ease. From the moment I called to inquire, Duane and his team at VROCNJ were incredibly helpful for helping us understand how to list and upload our duplex units, Listing #330 and #331 in a timely and efficient manner.
Almost immediately, we started receiving inquiries and filled our weeks. We sincerely appreciate the support Duane and his team at VROCNJ offer and have had great success with using their rental website. We look forward to many more successful rental seasons with them and highly recommend giving them a try - you won't be...
Read moreThis is a great vacation rental site! It saves renters hundreds of dollars versus the more well known vacation rental websites. This is because vacationers do not have to pay website based guest services fees, nor are they legally responsible to pay the NJ Lodging tax. This is because they are booking their stay directly with the Owner of the property. So they have the best rental experience - online searches and calendars, coupled with no fee or tax pricing, and the ability to speak directly with the owner for clarifications and human interaction BEFORE committing to booking...
