Perfect Family Getaway!

We had a wonderful and relaxing stay in this beautiful home! There was enough room for everyone to have their own space but the main floor is designed for gathering. The house was clean and well-equipped. It was a luxury to have off street parking and a 5 minute walk to the store.

Blue House/yellow Door

This is a great house in a perfect location. House is large with plenty of room for a large group. One word of caution- the stairs to the second floor are very steep and not good for anyone with mobility issues. However, there is a very nice master bedroom with beautiful master bath on the first floor. This is an old house that has been lovingly maintained with original wood floors, woodwork, and exposed brick. The house is well appointed and beautifully decorated. One of the best features is the spacious backyard and deck. If you are traveling with littles, they’ll love the yard. The location is great- close to the Washington Street pedestrian mall, restaurants, bars, miniature golf, beach and the all important Acme. We hope to go back again someday!

Location location location!

The home was decorated well and very comfortable. The kids loved the location because they could walk many places that they usually frequent. Saved a lot of time by not having to drive around looking for a parking spot. We also loved sitting on the large front porch. The check in was very convenient and Holly the realtor was always prompt at returning any texts or calls. Overall it was an amazing place and one we hope to return to in the future.

Loved our stay at the blue cottage

This house was exactly as advertised if not more. It was immaculately kept with beautiful decor. There were enough rooms for our kids and their friends. Kitchen is spacious and very well stocked. We did not have to buy anything and it felt just like our own home. The house has everything one would need for a short stay. It is well located with a 5 minute walk to the Main Street and 10 minute walk to the beach. The beach box with chairs and umbrellas were also very helpful. The owners were very prompt to replace one of the broken umbrellas. Thanks to the blue cottage we had a great stay in Cape May with our family and friends.

A Gem in Cape May

This property was just perfect for 7 senior ladies for a 5 day stay in Cape May. Plenty of room for almost all to have their own bedroom, sufficient bathrooms for this many ladies, and a kitchen that was equipped with Everything you could possibly need. We spent. time on the back deck having snacks and cocktails before dinner. On other days, we sat comfortably on the front porch where the warming rays of the sun kept the chill away in the cooler late afternoon to early evening. It was an easy walk to shopping area, tour operator, and also down to the beach for a walk. Just the perfect location. Loved it all!!

Lovely home!

This house is exactly as described-very comfortable, clean, and nice touches to make us feel comfortable. We had a girls weekend and the location was perfect for access to restaurants, shops, bars, and the ocean. I will definitely check out this property for future rentals! One thing to note-the stairs are a bit steep (as they often are in old homes). Manageable, but something to note if anyone has trouble with steps

Beautiful Home - Great location

We had a wonderful time at this home! It was the perfect size for our two families. Beautifully decorated and was very clean. It was the perfect distance to walk to the Washington Mall, Acme, Cape May Carriage rides, local restaurants and bike rentals. Despite being a little bit of a hike to get to the beach, it was a lovely walk and we didn't have to drive anywhere the entire week. Would certainly recommend to anyone considering staying here!

Cape May Family Vacation

We had a wonderful stay at this property. We had family members from three families as well as our mother. There was plenty of space for all 11 of us and we all had a bed to sleep in. From the well stocked kitchen, the lovely note and wine left by the owners, the amount of hooks to hang towels, bathing suits, toiletry bags, etc, to the wonderful front porch and back porch and wine fridge, we felt the house was just perfect for us. One of our favorite things to do was to sit on the front porch in the Adirondack chairs as we started our days and ended our days. The two picnic tables and umbrellas on the back porch were a wonderful addition as well. The location was perfect for walking to restaurants or to the Acme, coffee shop, mall, CVS, etc. The owners have put a lot of thought into many details for renters and it was much appreciated. We will definitely be back next year!

WOW! Great House!

We loved our stay here and wished we could've stayed longer! The house is very comfortable, bright, nicely decorated and very well stocked! The kitchen had it all from sharp knives to a well stocked spice cabinet (rare for rentals in my experience.) There were even two crockpots! The grill was clean and worked well. I was initially concerned about the steep staircase that other reviewers mentioned since I was bring 3 children under 3. The owner was super helpful and made sure that we have two baby gates available at the house to use. The staircase is a bit steep but it wasn't a problem for us at all. The patio out back is so nice for bbqing and there is plenty of shade with the umbrellas. All in all, great house and I would book it again without hesitation!

Amazing all around !

This property was amazing ! The owners snd those they worked with were communicative , clear , and had super easy check in and check out processes . The house itself is perfect ! So spacious for a group - huge yard lots of parking so many bedrooms that are all spaced out. The house was very clean and decorated so cute to give the Cape May feel . The location is PRIME! You can walk anywhere to whatever you need - stores , shopping , restaurants , beach . I highly recommended this place and these owners for a big group of family or friends ! Amazing amazing amazing !
