About this property

Bay Front Cottage in Historic Townbank

A bayfront whaler's cottage in historic Townbank: Property was completely renovated in January 2020. Come be among the first to stay in what was originally a whaler's cottage and one of the first structures in the area. Delaware Bay views, direct beach access, enclosed outdoor shower, and large outdoor deck. Perfect for couples or a family with one bedroom with a full bed plus pull out sofa. Sleeps up to 4 people. Vaulted ceiling, small kitchenette (stove, mini-refrigerator, and microwave). Full bathroom with shower. Located in historic Townbank. Watch the sunset, schools of dolphins, and enjoy walks along a mile and a half Bayfront sidewalk. Townbank is a quiet, secluded alternative to Cape May where there's no fighting for parking, no meters, no beach tags, and plenty of room to stake out a perfect spot on the beach. Plus, the five mile drive into historic Cape May means easy access to restaurants and attractions. Wildwood’s famous boardwalk is a ten mile drive.

*No smoking home.

*Linens are not included. You will need sheets for one full size bed in bedroom plus a sofa sleeper that converts to a full size bed. You will also need your own towels.

Across from the beach
The house was clean and convenient for a couple. Anymore people would be too much. It’s across the street from the beach, which made it so convenient to go back and forth with items or take a break from the Sun worth some AC. Would definitely go back.

Cute Cottage But Without Basics
Lovely small cottage but missing basic considerations for guests. Needs more trash cans, shelving in closet, a dresser for clothes, light in bathroom shower, toilet paper holder, towel rack bathroom, more kitchen cabinets, power strip for charging, outdoor clothes line, kitchen towels, pot holders, mixing bowels, blanket for sofa bed. We purchased many of the items when we got there but definetely needs some additional items for guests. Otherwise great little vacation spot. Thanks Kate

Overpriced
The owners are very nice but it is overpriced for what you get. You can hang clothes in closet but no place for other clothes so live out of suitcase on the floor. Refrigerator is tiny and the one cabinet has no place to put food. Nothing “beachy” about it. It is a good location but overall it is dreary.
