Question for AC locals: whats the 411 on Brigantine?

another option is LBI. A little longer drive but there are a lot of restaurants/shopping etc. It is about 45 minutes to an hour depending on where on LBI you rent and there is also a boat (The Black Whale) that you can take to the AC Marina across the bay that runs back and forth a few times a day.

I just got back from a week playing AC where I was staying with a friend on LBI. We were coming from Barnegat Light, at the north of the island, so our drive was on the long side (~an hour) but driving on the island is pleasant and it's a very nice place to stay. Very far removed from the AC scuzz.
