Where do I start? This vacation rental was excellent, it had everything! The description was spot on and some! The location was great offering spectacular views from six different rooms of the sun setting on the mouth Delaware Bay.
The house was immaculate. The five bedrooms and four bathrooms were more than enough for the 12 of us and 3 three additional family members, oh and I should not forget our two She-Poo's who had a great time as well!
At dinner, when we ate at the house, there was a great dining room just off the main kitchen and a kitchen upstairs too! They are stocked with every utensil you could image, so don't bring anything! There is also a four burner BBQ Grill out back just off the wash room that was perfect. Again, don't bring anything, it's all there...
A walk across the street will get you on your own beach of the Delaware Bay. Our family had a very active vacation. We kayaked all along the Bay, going almost as far as the Cape May Lewes Ferry docks a mile away! If you like, the Ocean is only a 5 mile drive across town. No biggie as we went there too. If you like Jet Skiing, go to Ocean Dr. and you can rent $60 per half hour with cash with an additional rider, great deal and we had a blast. The teenagers surfed up in Ocean City. The adults did a little wine tasting on rainy Wednesday at the Cape May Winery. The kids got two rounds of mini golf in at the Sunset Point and the beach. We did the WWII Tower and the Lighthouse. I think we did it all!
When we got back to the house, the great room provided an enormous space to sit at the end of the evening and take in the Olympics as a family. It was so comfortable. I found the binoculars and looked out at the horizon in the twilight to see the tankers lined up in formation. The younger set of kids hung out over top of us in the Great upstairs room playing the WII.
The yard was an exciting place for the dogs as they ran up, down and around and sniffed the flower beds, just enjoying the vacation as much as their human pets did.
If you are thinking of getting the extended family together at the beach, rent this place! Best advice is, don't bring a thing other than food and clothes, Horace has everything here for you. I guess my nephew put it best when I asked him what he liked best about the vacation. His reply..."I liked the house the best, we all had our own place to play and hang out, the house was the best!"
Thank you for a great vacation!
Kindest regards,
