We enjoyed our stay with the puppies at the cottage. Very clean, cozy had everything you need for your stay. Close proximity to wildwood where the puppies enjoyed the beach doggie park. As well as close to town of Cape May, restaurants, Congress Hall, beach and boardwalk. Looking forward to visiting again. Thank you for hosting us.

This was our 2nd stay at Cap Bay Cottage. It is perfect for two adults and a small dog. Huge back/side yard, so neighbors on one side are not too close. Short walk to beach (.4 miles). Quiet neighborhood.

My new favorite place

Cape Bay Cottage is a perfect spot for a relaxing beach getaway. Two adults and one pup found the cottage cozy and super clean! The location is convenient to the bay side beach and a short drive to Cape May. The owner takes extra care to make sure her guests are comfortable!

We absolutely loved our 3-night stay at this rental—it was cozy, clean, and full of charm. Being able to bring our dog made it even more special, and we’re so grateful to the host for accommodating all of us. The back patio was perfect for relaxing, the record player added a fun vintage touch, and the house was spotless throughout. Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish. We’d totally recommend this spot to anyone looking to stay in the area—it’s close to everything and made for a truly memorable getaway.

Wonderful getaway with my husband and son. The cottage was everything we needed for a quick 2 night stay. While I love that it is a dog friendly place, we did not love having to constantly clean dog hair off of us. If I could give 4.5 stars I would, but that was the only downside. Super close to the beach and close to many restaurants we were able to enjoy. And the neighborhood was peaceful at night, which was perfect for us.

The house was basically clean, but the smell of pet odor on the sofa was intense. Quiet neighborhood. Only complaint was the TV is apps only, and the internet connection was very spotty in the evenings. I had to cast programming from my smartphone.

Short and sweet getaway

It was our first time for my family and I to go away for Memorial Day weekend and we thought— why not go down the shore at Cape May? Fortunately I was able to find this property available. Diana, the host, was always so helpful and communicative with questions and such. The place was quaint and cute and very clean. 10/10 would book again. It’s absolutely perfect for a small family or a couple with a dog.

Hi Joseph, I’m sorry for the misunderstanding. We have garbage pails on the side the of house which are available for guests to throw out trash anytime and have a service that pulls the trash cans to the curb as well so our guest don’t need to worry about that. I am sorry this wasn’t clearer and that you had to chase down the garbage man. Thank you for letting me know. We hope you’ll visit us again. Diana

Hi Terri! Thank you for the kind review and taking such good care of our cottage. Thank you for the note about the whirlpool. Somehow it was checked off in the amenities but we have updated the listing. 😂. I hope you’ll come back soon!

This home is thoughtfully put together with just the right touches. It checks all the boxes for the main things like cleanliness and amenities, as well as my more specific needs. Some of the things I appreciate when I travel are blinds/curtains on all the windows, usable cookware, and an extra blanket for the bed- check, check, check! (Vacation rentals usually come with pans that are too scratched up to pass my safety standards- not this one!) Overall, everything is just in great shape. The home is situated in a quiet neighborhood and the short walk to the beach was always enjoyable. My dog, who despises loud roads, had no problem whatsoever. I felt like I was in good hands with this host; she is very good at what she does.
