About this property

Cozy Cottage a block from bayside beach! Near dining, golf & shops! Pet friendly

Comfy cottage evoking that old-school shore feeling of relaxation, sunshine, gulls calling & waves lapping at the sand. Enjoy coffee, drinks and barbequing on the back deck or sunbathing with a good book on the backyard patio! Privacy fencing with solar lighting ensure extra quiet contentment while you soak up the sun and shore vibes on the recliners or patio set complete with comfy pillows and umbrella. Inside you'll find two ample bedrooms featuring Queen bed in one, full in the other. Kitchen is equipped with stove, full refrigerator, microwave, pots and pans, coffee maker, crock pot and toaster. The new bathroom features both a shower and tub, and heat fan to remove the chill! One & a half blocks to the relaxing bayside beach where you may encounter one of the resident eagles! Short drive to the ferry to Lewes, Delaware. Close to historic Cape May, Cape May County Zoo, several free white-sand beaches, wineries, microbreweries, nightlife and the ever-popular Wildwood Boardwalk. Library, restaurants, thrift & antique shops, and several parks and recently refurbished playgrounds within blocks! Perfect to recharge your batteries if you're looking for relaxation! Ideally located to find new favorite places to eat, drink, hike, bike, boat, fish, try the local ice cream parlors, mini-golf and visit at the Jersey Shore!

It was just as described and very clean and comfortable. Big enough to be comfortable, but not too big. Just down the street from the beach with a lovely backyard.

Cozy Getaway

The house was really cute, in a great location, short walk to the beach and was not overly crowded. The host was especially nice and made us feel like we were staying at a friend or family's house. It was such a nice getaway and you can't beat morning coffee with a nice beach breeze flowing through the house. Thanks Jacki and Frank!

The cozy cottage is exactly how it sounds. The house had everything we needed. Jaki kept in contact with us throughout our stay to make sure we had everything. The house is steps away from the bay which had a beach. It wasn’t crowed which made it ideal to sit and relax! In the evening go enjoy the sunset! Our stay was truly pleasurable!

Thank you Jacki and Frank for providing such pleasant accommodations. The cottage was perfect for us, we felt right at home. Your communications add to that comfort. The cottage was well equipped, clean and inviting. I loved being so close to the bay, it was absolutely gorgeous. We had mostly rainy weather but being so close to the bay made it tolerable, we could walk down to the bay and take walks along the shore. There was a cat that came out to great us at the end of the road which was sweet. We never stayed outside of Cape May before and it was much nicer to be away from the crowds. And for guest who want ice cream, you must try Flecks, yummy! Thank you again. We highly recommend Jackie and Frank’s cottage.

The host is phenomenal, super responsive, friendly, and accomodating. The property is in a great location, very clean, great backyard, and a block from the beach. Shower pressure was awesome, my only minor complaint is the mattresses, they're not very comfortable, upgrade the mattresses and this place is perfect.

We’re so pleased that you loved our location, proximity to the beach, & the amenities that our home offers. We appreciated you keeping in touch before and during your visit as well! We pride ourselves on being available to our guests. 🙂 As for the mattresses, we’re sorry that they did not work for you -but as you can imagine, it’s difficult to get a mattress that is perfect for every guest’s preference! Rest assured they are newer mattresses, however. Unfortunately, I’m imagining this was a bit of a “Goldilocks” situation with the mattresses either being too hard or too soft for your liking. Wish they could have been “just right” for you! Thank you again for staying with us and for the mostly lovely feedback!

This was our second stay here and it was home away from home. Our host is so welcoming. The house is clean and had everything we needed. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. Close enough to Cape May and the beaches. Sunset at the bay was beautiful. We look forward to next year. Thank you Jackie and Frank.

About the host

Hosted by Jacki Sop

Host profile image
Hi, We're from PA, but have always vacationed in NJ. We love the beaches, boardwalks, water parks, restaurants, and all South Jersey has to offer. When we decided to buy our own vacation home, of course we chose Jersey! Now we're willing to share it with you, too!

Why they chose this property

"The Villas" is close enough to the action in Wildwood, North Wildwood, Wildwood Crest and Cape May to enjoy all the fun; but the short distance from the congestion offers privacy, easy parking and peace and quiet.

What makes this property unique

The (Don't be) Crabby Shack was set up in a way that evokes the feeling of a shore vacation from a bygone era. The setting is comfortable, not stuffy or fussy. Picture life at a calmer, slower pace and you have the vibe of our little bungalow. You immediately feel at home and the stress melts off you as you walk through the door. Want to sit on the patio and relax?-do it! Want to hit the Wildwood boardwalk?- do it! Whether keeping busy or keeping anything but, you're sure to enjoy your time here.
