Location Location Location

We had a generally good time. Can't beat the location - just steps from both the beach and the downtown Cape May. We felt the house itself could use an update - furniture is old and worn. Kitchen was well done. We enjoyed that there was a heated pool. However, the pool water was not heated. The heating mechanism was not working properly - and although we asked about it on our first day, the technicians to fix the heater did not come until the last day of our vacation. Overall I am happy with our stay. Not sure we would do it again.

Great location & pleasant stay!

Our 1 week stay was great! The house is old but charming. Plenty of parking passes, beach tags and house keys available. Michael communicated with us quickly and was very helpful. Home is equipped with everything we needed (we brought beach chairs but forgot a beach umbrella but there was one there!). We chose to bring our own linens (bath mats, one hand towel per bathroom, and kitchen towels were provided). Parking is about a 7-8 minute walk from the house but easy to get to. Beach is steps away and restaurants and shops as well. Jackson St. is a busy street though so if you want to sleep in, that's difficult. Most of us were up early so not an issue. If you want to sleep in, take a bedroom in the rear of the house as that might be helpful. Curtains are not blackout so bring a sleep mask if that's what you need to get some extra sleep. The Mad Batter restaurant is next door and you can put your name on the list and get a pager and then sit on the porch and wait for the pager to go off when your table is ready! Pool is small but nice to have for those who felt the beach water was too cold. Only suggestion I would have is to organize the kitchen and laundry bar area...there are so many appliances, kitchen gadgets/tools that either the bed and breakfast had or that people have left over the years that we had to dig through the drawers. But definitely helpful when the house is full of guests. I'm a little OCD so might just be me. There were board games and card games available.

This house fit our large group. The house itself is very beautiful and just steps to the beach. Also close to the main strip of Cape May and all of the bars and restaurants in town. Host was communicative and easy to work with. Multiple common room spaces, including front porch and balcony with ocean views. Pool is bigger than it looks!

Can't beat the location or the space

Clean, beautiful property. Spacious... plenty of room for multiple families to spread out and come together. Location absolutely cannot be beat... walk to everything and steps from the beach. The new pool is more of a plunge pool - great for small children but don't expect a large pool for playing around or diving or anything like that. Street is bustling... lots of morning noise with deliveries to the restaurants and trash pick-ups, etc... but we are all morning people and have kids up at the crack of dawn anyway so it didn't bother us. Michael, the host, is super easy to work with and fast to respond on everything. We had the worst weather over Memorial Day weekend so that was the only bummer... wouldn't hesitate to rent here again and hope to be able to next year as long as the sun comes out!

Five + Stars - Amazing Location and Beautiful Home!

We had booked our stay for 2020 but the pandemic hit and Michael (the owner) was going to refund us but we decided move it to 2021. Here is the crazy thing— he and his family have been living there since the fall and they completely moved out for our short stay (we didn’t even know this until we checked out)! House was super clean, kitchen had everything we needed. Location, location, location! I don’t think you could be in a better location. We are booking this house again this summer— in a block radius you have over 15 restaurants and bars plus the mall is a 1/2 block away, Congress Hall is around the corner and the beach is a couple steps away. Not everything was open when we were down but we ended up spending most of the time in the house. Oh and pool! The pool is almost finished (we knew in advance the backyard was going to be in disarray which didn’t bother us). We did check out the backyard for the noise and I’m pretty sure that any “noise” will be coming from families enjoying themselves in the pool. Needless to say, this house is awesome and we are coming back this summer with a couple families— we can’t wait!!

Cape May

This is a nice, clean, well-equipped house and we very much enjoyed our stay. Michael was responsive and helpful. It is a very busy, loud street but close to beach and everything else. Our only issue was with the back yard. The noise and smell from the restaurant next store and the noise from air conditioning units on adjacent buildings made it unpleasant to spend time on the back porch or backyard. This is no fault of the property owners but an unfortunate fact.
