My stay was too short

The cottage is lovely and the grounds are outstanding. I just wish I had been able to stay long. Merlot cottage has a drip coffee maker AND a Keurig—I wish I had know about the latter before the trip, a I would have brought my own K-cups.

Great stay

We had a wonderful weekend visiting the property. It was an ideal location if you’re wanting to be a bit off the beaten path. We loved being so close to the winery yet just a short distance from town, shops and the beach. We had a great time visiting Cape May and look forward to our next trip.

Ants & Blown Fuse

The Merlot cottage is very nice, and clean, however, there should be a warning on VRBO about the ant problem before booking. When you check-in you are given instructions about keeping food in the refrigerator because of ants. Ants were in the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. The AC in the living room blew a fuse every 20 minutes and we were instructed how to reset the fuse outside. We followed the instructions and still blew a fuse. Thankfully it was not hot and he AC in the bedroom worked great. There were dirty dish towels left in the washer and a very dirty sponge in the kitchen which we threw away. We had to wash the towels since we were only provided 1 towel for each person and we stayed 2 nights. Management did respond to our concerns promptly. The Winery was very nice and so was the winery staff and the grounds are beautiful.

Nice quiet getaway

Had a nice quiet weekend at the cottage. Had a nice tapas dinner at the winery and a great breakfast at the farm down the road. Would stay again.
