We had a fabulous stay. The hosts were incredibly responsive and gracious, the house was new, immaculate, and beautifully decorated, and the location was amazing.
We had an amazing long girl’s werkend at the Fox Den! The house was beautiful, super clean, and in walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. Tom and Colleen were very helpful and responsive. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others!
We had an amazing vacation at the Fox Den! The house had everything that we needed, from the space, to appliances, to fun games and books for our daughter. The proximity to shopping was great, with the Acme a close walk as well. We are looking forward to hopefully being there again next summer.
This was, by far, the best property we have ever rented and the Host are SUPER HOST. They bent over backwards to make our stay special and did more than we would have asked for. We couldn’t recommend them more highly. Do yourself a favor and book their property. It is fabulous!!
The Foxes Den was absolutely fabulous! We were a multigenerational group coming to visit Cape May for the annual Christmas parade weekend. The house was perfectly located , decorated beautifully for Christmas and appointed with all we needed to create lasting memories with our family and friends. The owners Colleen and Tom Fox were perfect in communications and were available if we needed and support during our stay. We would definitely rent the Foxes Den for a winter or a summer escape to Cape May! Thank you Colleen and Tom.
This house was a perfect “home base” for a terrific week in Cape May - it’s wonderfully located, has great indoor/outdoor spaces for family meals, and in general, is a thoughtfully designed, comfortable, and lovely place. Tom and Colleen were gracious and responsive hosts, and we’d be thrilled to stay again.

Laura, so happy our home met your family’s expectations. Hope you think of the “Fox Den” as “home base” when you plan future visits to Cape May.
What a great house! During our 3 night stay, we created wonderful family memories. Would definitely recommend staying at this beautiful house that is walking distance to the local shops and beach.

We know that this weekend was a special weekend for your family. We were honored that you chose our home and so happy you added to the wonderful memories you have of Cape May.
Beautifully designed home with quiet spaces for the whole family to enjoy.
The Fox Den was exactly what we hoped it would be: clean, well-appointed, spacious, and nicely decorated. This home has so much to offer. The owners were very helpful throughout our planning process. All had a wonderful, relaxing time, and enjoyed daily walks around town, Congress Hall, and our days at the beach. Cape May has so much to offer. We hope to return one day!
We had an amazing stay at the Fox house. The house was perfect! Impeccably clean, well-equipped, in a great location, and even decorated for the fall! I highly recommend this house for a large group, and I can’t wait to stay there again in the future.

Glad you liked our home's amenities for your weekend away. . We feel fortunate to be walking distance to so many great places in Cape May. Please consider "the Fox Den" for your next visit to Cape May.
House was just as pictured (maybe even better)
Host was quick to respond when check-in door code didn't work.
Perfect for our group of 12 (and could have had more)
Location was great, walked everywhere
Would highly recommend

Glad our home was a good fit for your girls get away weekend.
Another great stay at this beautiful property! This was our 3rd trip to this home and it has always been spotless and well-maintained. The location is perfect to walk to town. The owners are responsive and helpful. We hope to return again next year!
Do not hesitate to book this amazing house! There is so much space both indoors and outside. Everything down to the decor and thoughtful touches made our stay exceptional. It was clean, well-equipped, and a very close walk to everywhere you want to be.
We stayed at the Fox Den this past weekend and it exceeded all expectations. The house was so clean, beautifully decorated, and so spacious. The fully stocked kitchen was a big hit too! Its a great location as well, walking distance to so much! We will absolutely be back!

We look forward to you coming back. So happy that The Fox Den and its location worked well for your stay in Cape May.
This was a beautifully appointed house that suited my family's needs perfectly. There was plenty of space inside and out for people to be on their own and the living room was large enough for us altogether and surprisingly safe for a toddler. The location was perfect for the teens and adults who could either walk or bike to the beach and everywhere else in town but for the family who had a one and a 2-year-old, It was a bit of a schlep. Overall, I would love to return to this house.
Absolutely the best, this home is beautiful, convenient, clean, minutes away from shops and restaurants and short walk or bike ride to the beach. Tom and Colleen are the best hosts, always making sure to accommodate. 2nd year here and looking forward to many more!
Beautiful house. Very comfortable. Short walk to downtown.

About the host
Hosted by Thomas Fox, Colleen Fox
We grew up in the Philadelphia area and live in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Since purchasing our home we've offered our home to guests mainly during the summer months, but recently decided to rent out home off season also. Our growing family uses the family Cape May home throughout the year. Recently, when we were away on vacation, we noted a quote which describes our rental experiences : "A stranger is a friend you haven't met yet. - Anonymous". We are appreciative of the many relationships developed with “guests” who have vacationed at the Fox Den. We welcome the chance to speak with you about our home and ask you to consider it as you make your vacation plans.
Why they chose this property
Because Cape May is uniquely a "year round" seashore community, our family fell in love with the town, the activities, and events offered throughout the four seasons. There is something to do for all four generations in our family. Since purchasing our home, we've been delighted that so many families make the "Fox Den" their vacation home year after year. From our experience, vacation time can create wonderful memories. We work hard to offer a great product with the hope that the "Fox Den" feels like a home away from home for you.
What makes this property unique
Our home feels beachy! Whether you are sitting on the porch, the comfy couches, or taking an outside shower under the stars, you know you are at a beach home on vacation. We appreciate that many of our guest choose the "Fox Den" year after year as their Cape May go-to place. Being able to walk anywhere in town is so enjoyable! Our grandkids love being able to walk to the beach, grocery store, ice cream shop, and mini golf. Our guests love being able to walk to restaurants, pick up a bottle of wine and relax in the backyard conversation pit after a busy Cape May day. Because there are bedrooms, laundry facilities, and family rooms on both floors, our home works for multiple generations or families.
