Melissa Gorga has found another reason to love her New Jersey shore house, thanks to her new outdoor kitchen.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom already loves spending time with her kids and her husband, Joe Gorga, at their house on the water in the summer. But they have a brand-new reason to spend even more time outside than they already do. The Gorga’s shore house already has a very large back deck, complete with an expansive dining table, lounge chairs, shimmering pool, and a dock leading down to the water. And now they have an outdoor kitchen to do all of their cooking, so they don’t even need to set foot inside of their property.
Melissa recently took to her Instagram Story, where she posted some new photos of the upgraded space, complete with a sink, refrigerator, cabinets, and marble countertops. The outdoor kitchen is also outfitted with a spacious kitchen island, built-in grill, and pizza oven.
“We love to entertain at our shore house,” Melissa wrote over one photo, tagging the company that also did their outdoor kitchen at their primary home.
“I’m in love with my new outdoor kitchen at my shore house by [RTA Outdoor Living],” she wrote over another snap. “Thanks [RTA Outdoor Living] for making outdoor living so easy. Happy Summer.”

Melissa, however, was worried about the shore house earlier in the summer, when a storm, which she described as a “tornado,” went through her backyard while they were visiting. Melissa took to Instagram, where she posted security footage of the storm winds blowing their pool chairs and cabana into their pool.
“A tornado just blasted through my shore house,” she wrote in the caption of the post. “Literally came through for one minute, wrecked the joint, and left.”

The next day, Melissa took to her Instagram again, where she revealed that her neighbors had helped them pull the furniture from out of the pool. “The aftermath…Believe it or not, we recovered everything, and nothing even has a scratch on it,” she wrote in the caption of the post.
She also posted a photo of the cabana floating in the pool to her Instagram Story. “Thank God for good neighbors,” she wrote over the picture.

The Gorgas have been loving the time spent at their shore house this summer. Melissa took to Instagram in May, where she revealed that her sons and daughter had their friends over and she was loving every moment of it.
“Oh how things change — where are the swimmies and the big bows in the hair,” she wrote in the caption of the post. “They have officially taken over Missy G’s!! But I wouldn’t change it for anything…Love being able to talk to them about their lives AND I love that all three of them have their friends here and they all hang out together…The one thing I won’t let change is that we will all still eat breakfast together while listening to Lionel Richie radio.”

Melissa continued to enjoy the little moments from summer, including eating crab with Joe and their daughter, Antonia, in August, which she posted about.
In July, Melissa also took to Instagram, where she posted several photos from their family dinner. “My fav summer nights. Casual dinner with the fam,” she wrote in the caption of the post, along with the words “thank you Jesus.”
