Eagles Nest
Come see why everyone rates us five stars!! You'll find yourself delighted to spend some time on the beautiful Delaware Bayfront off the grid in our beautiful and newly renovated cozy home! Just minutes from the popular NJ Motorsports Park in Millville, Fortescue is a small fishing village on the picturesque Delaware Bay that has a postcard-like ambiance that you will find incredibly relaxing and perfect for a getaway! Once known as the weakfish capital of the world, Fortescue is famous for it's beautiful beaches, party boat fishing, crabbing, world-famous birdwatching, and it's also a photographer's paradise. Just minutes away from Bivalve, where there are museums and NJ's working tall ship, the AJ Meerwald. There is also seasonal sightseeing and eagle watching for all. Take a special birdwatching and sightseeing tour with captain Dave aboard Maurice River Cruises. This home will not disappoint any photographer as well with the views from the front and back of the property on the surrounding wetlands that expand as far as the eye can see and is perfect for sunset and sunrise photos! This amazing home has three gorgeous bedrooms, brand new full bath and laundry, new kitchen, living, and dining room! Make this your new special getaway place year after year!
Please note ... Eagles Nest is surrounded by wetlands and the Delaware Bay across the street. Never leave children unattended at any time outside on the deck or near the bay. Do not allow anyone to hang on, sit on, jump from, or climb over deck railings. Absolutely no running, jumping, or horseplay of any kind on decks.
June 19th to August 5th (Give or take a few days) * Greenhead flies are a pest around the waterfront areas of Fortescue from mid-June thru late July. We recommend bringing bug spray and wearing as much white as possible, as greenheads only can see darker colors. They are also attracted to the heat of your vehicle so driving around can be quite unpleasant during these few weeks of the summer. But with the proper awareness and precautions, we have had countless guests enjoy all that Fortescue has to offer, even the beach, during these weeks. Some small children could have a hard time being outside in daylight hours during the greenhead season.

Everything was great! If you are looking for a place on the bay with a great view, very quiet, extremely clean and well stocked, comfortable, easy access to bay beaches, fishing and bird watching...The list goes on. HIGHLY recommended. In our travels up and down the east coast renting homes this is easily in the top three we have ever stayed at. We have been doing this for twenty years.You will not regret staying here.
Perfect place to stay while exploring the area. Beautifully decorated, thoughtful extras, fantastic views, and super communicative and friendly hosts. They even left us pumpkin bread—which we devoured! Highly recommended.
Nice little house in a sleeping fishing village that was cozy and welcoming. Great communication, a friendly welcome with home made pumpkin bread and nicely stocked coffee bar. Beds were comfortable and we enjoyed our short stay for a nice weekend away
We love this property and it allows us to stretch out and enjoy the area while visiting our family. Ive stayed at many vacation rentals and these hosts are the best out there. They have thought of everything.
Visited property in January. It was very cozy, quiet, away from people. Awesome view over looking the water. Great place to be alone for a mental health trip, or with friends. and family's
From the time we walked into “The Eagle Nest” we were in awe. From the location, cleanliness, and view of the ocean to the sunrise and sunset. The host was always in communication with me and available if we needed them. This was a much needed peaceful getaway. Thanks again.

This is the most comfortable, peaceful spot. This is our second visit and we can't wait to stay again. Thoughtful, lovely accomodations in a beautiful place. Everything you can want!!!
Jeff and Melanie have created an oasis that provides MORE than all the luxuries of home! They have thought of everything! Thank you for your careful attention to detail in kitchen goodies and bathroom essentials, cleanliness, games, puzzles, sheets, towels, blankets...and much more! Thank you for the blessings! You have created a beautiful oasis to retreat away from the hustle and bustle of every day life! We WILL be back! (As long as our friends who hear about your place don't book first!) :)
Melanie and Jeff were great. The place is comfortable, beautiful and the sound of the wind was just what I needed to take my mind off the worries of the world.
My family and I stayed at Eagles Nest when my son had a soccer tournament in Pittsgrove. I can not say enough about how nice the house is and how much thought the owners have put into stocking the house to make sure our every need or potential need was met. There was a gallon of milk and various creamers waiting for us when we arrived. Towels, beach chairs fishing poles, board games, clothes detergent...the list is long. I was explaining the hospitality we were receiving to another soccer parent and I was asked "are you staying with a friend?" The owner was always reachable even to ask where we should go to dinner. I highly recommend Eagles Nest to anyone.
Eagles nest was a wonderful experience. The owners Jeff and Melanie were awesome hosts. They had everything possible to make your stay feel like home. Clean, comfortable and peaceful are just a few words to express our restful stay. My husband recently had knee replacement surgery and being close to the bay was such a relaxing time for him
2nd time here and was perfect in all aspects. Very close to NJMP, everything neat, clean, coffee, towels, soap, etc. Owner is awesome and very communicative.
Super-nice beach home. Very clean, excellent decor, furnishings, amenities and comfort. Very quiet and relaxing off-season getaway for wifey and I. Hosts Jeff & Melanie took care of everything and were a pleasure to communicate with. Five Stars for everything! Thank you! -Kevin & Malisa.
Again the home and community were great. House is very clean and has everything you need. Owner is very helpful and great to deal with. Neighborhood is quiet and very friendly. We are looking forward to returning for a 3rd stay.
We enjoyed our stay, the home was perfect, decor was beautiful. I went to do some beachcombing and found some amazing treasures!! Sunsets and sunrises were beautiful!!
