Perfect for the family

Great location, just a short walk to beach and downtown. Cape May is lovely I can't say enough about catching the breeze on the front porch and just relaxing. The house is cute and roomy. It was the perfect choice for me and my family. Barbara was very easy to work with and responsive. I would recommend this place for a small group looking to kick back and take it easy.

Prime location

Fantastic for our family due to proximity to beach and downtown. Very historic looking home that needs some upgrades. Footed bath tub is difficult to get in and out of - safety issue. Pillows need to be replaced - very flat and uncomfortable. Old outdoor wicker furniture in living room - not comfortable at all.

Wonderful Location and Front Porch

Barbara was a pleasure to work with and the property was just as described with the best location so close to the beach and to the downtown mall. The front porch was wonderful, we enjoyed sitting out there everyday and watching the world go by.

Proximity to the beach was great. Very safe neighborhood and great for kids

The communication was great and check in was smooth. The house as mentioned is slightly vintage but everything works as mentioned. We enjoyed our stay and will come back.
