Once-affordable summer escape rocked by soaring costs as families shell out thousands

An influencer recently alleged that her family shells out $10,000 each year to visit a Jersey Shore spot for a single week — prompting people to question whether that type of price tag is worth it.

A Philadelphia-based influencer posted the viral video on Aug 2.

In the TikTok video, the influencer breaks down the rental costs while walking through Sea Isle City in Cape May County with a beach chair on her back.
