We could not have had a better time. Kelley is an excellent hostess/owner. We had absolutely everything we needed and the enormous fenced in back yard was stupendous for our dog. She thought she'd gone to heaven ! The description does not do the house justice. Definitely coming back.

Great for dog lovers!

Had a fabulous stay! Space was super clean and was well thought out for those with dogs! The beds were super comfy, and they had all the channels on their TV! The proximity to downtown was perfect, and the backyard space is absolutely perfect for furry friends! The pool area is separate from the fenced in area, so no need to worry about any pool issues with pets!

Lovely Vacation Home

Overall this was a great property for a family of five, with a great outside area for family as well as dogs to play or relax however they choose. It also has a beautiful pool area to relax if that is more your speed. The host is very friendly as well as very helpful no matter what your family’s needs. I would definitely stay here again.

Our getaway

Let me start off by saying the host Kelley and her husband are awesome, wonderful and very caring people.They made my family feel like we were part of her family. The house was very clean and cozy and the yard was huge for our dog and even the kids to play ball. My family had a wonderful time staying. We will be back definitely.

Cape May Stay

Great place. Even in November there are plenty of things to do in Cape May. The house was immaculately clean, and the yard is literally the size of a football field. We had a great time, and would highly recommend it to all.

Cozy, Clean, and Convenient!

My husband and I had a great stay - the property was perfect for us and our pup! You can tell the owners take pride in the property - it’s clean and thoughtfully decorated. The location was also very convenient - just a short drive to the dog-friendly Higbee beach or downtown Cape May. We can’t wait to plan our next visit!

Cape May Getaway

Awesome Host/Owners, nice quiet place, clean and well kept. Nice deck and fenced in yard for your pets. The location was great! Close to 3 different beaches, wineries, breweries, restaurants. Loved it, kid’s (young adults) had a great time but most of all Milo got to come with us and he to enjoyed the beach and wilderness trails. It was a great experience and Cap May is a beautiful beach town with so much to offer. The worst part is, now i have to unpack : (

Great stay for dogs, close to beaches & town

Kelley was a great host, communicative, friendly, and clearly a person who understood dogs :) The house was very clean and well stocked. It was lovely to be able to hang out on the deck and let our city dogs rest in the sunlight. Our more athletic dog did find the one 4ft spot in the fence (otherwise the entire fence is 6ft) and jumped out, though she found her way back pretty quickly. Kelley was very understanding of our dogs and offered fence solutions for the future. It seems like there is a great community of people who appreciate this place!

What A great cottage in a wonderful town!

I’d never been to Cape May but it won’t be my last time. Kelley’s cottage is wonderful with an awesome backyard for the kids and dogs. We even brought a popup canopy with a tent and a projector to watch movies outside. Two thumbs up!

Nice clean stay off the beaten path

Property owner called while we were on our way due to an ice storm to keep me up to date and help check in. When we arrived it was very nice and clean and the property is great. If you have a dog that likes to run its perfect. There are steps leading to the cabin but those are lit and well cared for. All in all a great place that we will stay at again.

Great family place

Everything was wonderful. Dogs had a wonderful time with such a big back yard. The place was very clean and extras provided. The deck was wonderful and spacious. Kelly new lots of history about Cape May and was excited to talk to you about where places are. The only negative thing would be the noise from the furnace. When it came it it was very hard to holda conversationwithoutyelling. .

Great little place

The home was very well appointed. Clean and great location. We were very close to everything. It was the first time for me travelling with my dog. He is older and large but he was very comfortable. The stairs were his only issue, so maybe people should be aware of the steps issue if bringing an older dog. Otherwise, everything was awesome 👌

About the host

Hosted by Kelley J. Ferguson

I am from Phillipsburg, NJ but I met my wife, a Florida girl, while residing down there. A business opportunity brought us back to my hometown. I knew my wife missed the sunshine and sea air so I took her on an anniversary trip to Cape May in the middle of May many years ago. She fell in love with the area and we have faithfully returned ever since. About five years ago we decided to take our Frenchie with us on our vacations and I found the Captain's Sea Cabin online. When we arrived at the property my wife fell in love with it. She patiently pursued Capt. Frank and Betty with the possibility of owning it and now it is hers'. She is very excited to be the Florida girl who would rather live in Cape May, NJ. The legacy, of Capt. Frank and Betty, one of graciousness and hospitality is what we hope to be able to live up to. I am the president of Ferguson Containers in Phillipsburg, NJ and Kelley is the manager of the property. Our disabled daughter, Autumn , with her Shih Tzu, Odie, our PUG, Mei Mei, and our old cat, Patsy, are also residents at our Cape May home.

Why they chose this property

It is a short bicycle ride to the downtown shops and beach. It is a shorter drive to pet friendly Higbee Beach, Cape May winery and Cape May National golf course.

What makes this property unique

The beauty of this area captured our hearts so much that we had to have a home there to enjoy it more often than just a vacation. Please come and enjoy it with us.
