Beach Haven West pairs lagoon-front living with fast access to sand, surf, and bay. Set within Stafford Township in Ocean County, this waterfront community is threaded with miles of canals, so many homes offer backyard docks and quick runs to Barnegat Bay. Weekend plans might include cruising over the Causeway to Ship Bottom for Long Beach Island beaches, climbing “Old Barney” at Barnegat Lighthouse State Park, or spotting herons and ospreys at the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge. Elevated, renovated, and new construction homes reflect a focus on coastal resilience, and local marinas, kayak launches, and bait shops keep boaters and anglers well supplied.
Families appreciate strong public schools: the Stafford Township School District serves younger students, with older grades in the highly regarded Southern Regional School District. Township services, permits, and recreation are easy to navigate through the Stafford Township municipal site, while nearby care at Southern Ocean Medical Center adds peace of mind. Dining, amusements, and seasonal events in Beach Haven are minutes away, and the Stafford Township Arts Center brings concerts and community theater close to home. Whether you’re seeking a full-time coastal base or a low-key retreat with quick bay access, Beach Haven West delivers the lifestyle many shore-goers imagine—without sacrificing everyday convenience.
