About this property

Beachfront Cottage Nestled Behind Dunes Just Steps Away From The Beach.

Three Bedrooms, two Baths, w/outdoor shower. Sleeps 10-12 comfortably. Full Kitchen & Laundry. Full length screened front porch & roof top deck with ocean views over dunes. Very quiet setting and safe for children. Minutes from Cape May and Wildwood. There is a full separate Garage with bikes, beach chairs, boogie boards, and lots of sand tools for the kiddies. My Great Great Grandfather built the house in 1901 and has been passed down through the generations. Many many fond memories !

Charming Cottage Close to Beautiful Beach

This cottage is exactly what I imagined it would be. Charming, rustic, unpretentious, and, best of all, steps away from a great beach. My adult children and I all loved it. Host was a pleasure to work with. We had a great time!

We were in Cape May to celebrate my mother's 80th birthday. The location of the cottage was perfect and the garage was equipped with everything you may need. The kitchen was full delightful to cook in. We loved our stay and felt the nostalgia of the home.

A wonderful vacation

Sitting immediately adjacent to the beach, this charming beach cottage was the perfect place for our family vacation. First of all, we love Cape May Point. However in all the years we have rented at "The Point", this was the closest we ever were to the beach, which was wonderful because our family loves the beach and easy access to it was a great luxury for us. We had so much fun and returned home refreshed, relaxed and grateful for our stay at this pleasant property.

Back In Time

Location, location, location… It was the perfect spot to be in Cape May point. Unbelievable sunsets and the place was very well appointed as far as convenience goes… It was definitely a step back in time. The kids in the upstairs bunk room had a blast!!! it is the quintessential look back at the traditional “cottage” of Cape May . Air-conditioning was great and there was a great selection of cookware in the kitchen…. The outdoor shower made it complete….

Beach life at its most laid back

Our family getaway at this charming beachfront cottage was exactly what we needed. The beach is literally right outside the door, and the sand is as soft as silk. The house itself is vintage--first built by a family ancestor and added to with each successive generation. It's clear that a lot of good memories were made here. Our host was very pleasant and responsive. All in all, this is a great setting for an informal family vacation with young children.

Beach lovely

Thus historical property has charm and great location. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked with all the things a cook could use !! Sadly a previous tenant had not left either key in place but the owner was able to get someone to let me in less than an hour. For a person who prefers open windows in good weather, a few could use some attention. I had a great time!

Our week at the beach

We all enjoyed our stay at Cape May Point in this quaint beach front cottage. It had every thing we needed and we were comfortable for the week. The location could not be better and the owner was always available to answer any questions we had. The house might not be for everyone as it truly is a cottage but our group of 7 including teens and adults found it charming and homey. We all agreed that we would be happy to return there. The only suggestion I would offer is that it would be nice to have a light over the back door.

PERFECT!

Just my mother and I stayed for a week. I live in an early 1900' s house and felt very much at home in this house and could appreciate the craftmanship that the family has done to their home over the years. Steve the homeowner was excellent to work with couldn't have asked for him to be any nicer and to share his family's home and all the history that goes with Cape May Point We probably had the best week down the shore this summer water was warm and weather was perfect for late September! The house was perfectly nested on a quiet dead end street. Just walk out side door of house and a short walk over the dunes and there was paradise....the beach and water. The sunsets where beautiful!

Fantastic house!!

We loved this house. There was plenty of room for our family of 8. We loved the history and story behind this classic home. Steps away from a beautiful beach, an outdoor shower awaits your return to wash away the sand. Can’t wait to return!

Barefoot to the beach!

We loved our stay here-perfect size for our family of 5…two adults and three young children. We prefer a more rustic beach experience and this fit the bill-a quaint and beachy cottage that has been in a family forever. All the needed things are there to cook, plus even some extras like a blender and coffee grinder. We loved how close it was to the dunes and barely had to even wear flip flops. Stephen was a great host as well. Oh, and best water pressure in an outdoor shower I’ve ever experienced! Also a claw foot tub inside! It’s the little things that make a place like this so special.

Happy at CMP

Loved the location, just a few steps from the beach, closest we have ever stayed. The property is charming and reminiscent of the old original cottages/buildings at the point. It was comfy and clean with plenty of room for 6 adults and a six year old in our party. The interior would be described as rustic. The front screen porch was great for reading or enjoying an early morning cup of coffee. Unfortunately views of the beach or ocean were virtually nil from the rooftop deck due to all the foliage on the dunes, which I understand. Outside shower is a plus as well as the garage with chairs, umbrellas, toys available. My only suggestion is that the kitchen get some upgrading and maybe the baths as well. We did not eat out much so we were in the kitchen cooking meals. I give this place a definite thumbs up, cannot beat the location.

Rustic Home in a Great Location

This house, built in 1901, is the quintessential beach house. Don't be shocked by the musty, beachy smell. It's not fancy, but after a short time you feel right at home. You can just feel the history and family love in this place. It's just steps away from a beautiful, quiet beach, yet within walking/biking distance to historical landmarks and quaint shops. Communication with Stephen , the owner, was easy. Be advised, the pictures in the listing are old. You can't see the beach from the deck due to tall tree/bush growth(which, when you read about the area, was necessary, but dissappointing none the less.) It was also stiflingly hot upstairs, where the only indoor shower is, so we used the outdoor shower, which was great! Upstairs is a wide open room that is a great hangout for kids if you cool it down. One evening, we took a walk down the beach around 7-7:30 and saw a pod of dolphins feeding and playing. This is where the whale/dolphin watch boat comes! Amazing, and so close!! All in all, we had a wonderful time at this property and would come back again!

Beach cottage with historic charm

Steps away from the beach, this original wood cottage from 1901 gives you a feel for the earliest days of Cape May Point/Seagrove. The lovely garden and rooftop deck overlooking the dunes are outstanding for relaxing, bird watching, etc. The wooden interior oozes charm from a bygone era, and the owners are rightly proud of this historic gem.

Beach Cottage

We had a very pleasant stay at the rustic and charming cottage which is situated just a few steps away from the picturesque dunes, beaches, and sunsets of Cape May Point. The cottage is over a hundred years old but it is clean, comfortable, well-equipped, and well-maintained. The property is attractively landscaped and has a screened porch, 2 decks, and a private backyard for enjoying the tranquil surroundings.

Cape May historic house

This is a well-loved, well-used historic house built in 1901. The house is cozy and rustic and steps from a quiet, un-crowded part of the beach. Is you are looking for an authentic, old-fashioned beach cottage, this is for you.
