Cozy cottage on iconic tree lined Washington Street

Great location, cozy first floor one bedroom in a historic Cape May home on iconic Washington Street. Located less than 1 mile bike to Madison Ave beach, great restaurants, and just 5 short blocks to the Washington Street Mall. Enjoy two separate exterior entrance/exits from the cottage for maximum privacy. Large sliding doors to the patio (a shared space among 3 units) beckon the natural sunlight resulting in a cheerful space much larger than a hotel room with more privacy than an efficiency or bed and breakfast. Located just 3 blocks from the Washington Inn and other signature Cape May eats! Washington Street Mall is located just 5 short blocks away where you can shop, dine, or enjoy a cocktail in the Brown Room at Congress Hall. Looking for adventure, grab a house bike and a beach towel and head to Madison Ave Beach, less than one mile away! Sit and relax the day away or head to Grant Street beach or the Cove to catch some waves! Had enough of the beach? Grab your tennis racket and check out the Physick Estate, or call the Cape May Free ride to visit one of Cape May’s amazing winery’s. If you like to fish, you’re in the right spot with local charters or take a booze cruise on the Tiny Tiki out of South Jersey Marina! In Cape May, you can do nothing at all, but there will never be nothing to do!

Have a larger party and need more space? Check out our other two rentals at this location as well. The Flybridge Vrbo 2702163 and The Starboard Vrbo 2711056 . Interested in renting the entire house, please check availability for those property ID's. Home is 5 bed, 5 bath home with Queen bed on third floor bonus room. Entire home can sleep a maximum of 16 with two pull outs.

Cottage in Cape May

The cottage was perfect! Gina the host answered my questions quickly. Nicely furnished the bed was very comfortable with a scent of lavender on the sheets, which made it so relaxing. The living room had a sliding glass door we enjoyed watching the birds from the couch. Well kept landscape with nice patio furniture. Private backyard with grill and hugh picnic's table. Give this rental a 10! 😊 We will be back♥️.

THE BEST economical place to stay in Cape May

My husband & I stayed here to join other family members that were vacationing in Cape May also. This is a cozy, very clean, comfortable place to stay. We borrowed bikes the owner had available to ride around and visit the family. We also got a lot of walking exercise in going to the Washington St mall which was right down the street and going to the beach early in the morning to see the sun rise. Just Beautiful! We found the air conditioning unit to be just fine as long as we kept it on most of the time on high cool. We did not need to use a fan we brought just in case since there was a ceiling fan in the bedroom which was wonderful to move cool air. Loved having the washer/dryer to do laundry. Honestly we couldn’t have asked for anything more for this price. Thank you for such a lovely little place to stay.

Nice 3 night stay

This was a good pick for my husband and myself. Location is just a few streets away from all of the activity in Cape May. I was able to head back mid-day and catch a quick nap before nighttime dinner, drinks, and live music. Clean space. My husband LOVED all of the channels he could stream. Sports and news! Had all kitchen necessities, but only two washcloths for three nights for two of us. The bed was difficult to get in and out if you are the one who sleeps trapped by the wall. Comfortable bed and pillows and comforter though! It was a pretty dark atmosphere, but we were mostly there just to sleep. Easy entrance into home, but parking was on street only and crowded.

4.5 Stars

I stayed here with my mom and sister for a getaway. Overall, would recommend but feel as though some things should be known. The good first- the property was immaculate. Now for the things I just want to note: it is quite noisy if someone is staying upstairs. Unsure if they were the owners dogs but there was a lot of barking early in the morning and running upstairs. Also, we were woken by a vacuum in the morning (before 8 am). Next, there is no fan in the bathroom. It was very steamy in there after a shower and it is connected to the kitchen so bring some Febreze. Also, I was excited to walk everywhere based on how the listing explained everything was so close. The shopping center and most restaurants were driving or biking distance. For the price, the quaint location and the cleanliness it was worth it!

Cozy but Bright

The cottage was quaint and cute. It had everything we needed. Our biggest complaint is that it was extremely bright in the bedroom all night. The neighbors left a very bright outside light on and the bedroom blinds were very thin and let all of the light in. Blackout curtains in the bedroom would be beneficial. The curtain in the bathroom was see through so we needed to hang a towel over that. The air conditioner did not get cool so it got a little warm even though we had a cooler stay. Perhaps an air conditioner in the bedroom as well for the really hot summer days. It’s nice that you offer bikes and we did utilize them. If the window situation and air conditioning were addressed we would happily stay again. Thank you for opening your home to us.

Cosy flat perfect for one person, a bit cramped perhaps for a couple

The one bedroom apartment is tiny, but is very cute and comfortable, and has its own entrance with an access to the garden. Nicely furnished. The bedroom is long and narrow, which is fine for one person, but might be a bit less than ideal for a couple. There was construction going on next door, so was noisy in the daytime. No dishwasher or laundry facility. Also, no space to store any dry food goods except on the counter. Fine if you plan to mostly eat out or for short stays. The neighborhood is lovely and leafy, and generally fairly quiet, although it is a busy street (even busier at the moment perhaps due to a detour routing through traffic from the Main Street). The door code was not provided to me before check-in, causing some confusion on arrival and necessitating a phone call. However, this was quickly resolved. Very responsive host. All in all, I enjoyed the stay very much.

Not what I expected

Sometimes photos don't quite tell the story. I didn't realize that the entire unit was cooled by a large window air conditioner installed just above the sofa bed -- which meant that anyone sleeping there would have rumbling noise and cold blasting just two feet over their head, while the person in the bedroom would need a fan blowing on them. As Cape May gets very hot and humid, the AC had to go full blast most nights. Also there were a LOT of ants in the kitchen, crawling on the floor and counters. I wasn't too upset, as ants are common at the shore, but maybe an exterminator could help. The kitchen is very, very tiny and cramped -- no dining table or regular chairs just a small bar-type table and counter stools. It was really hard to cook anything besides scrambled eggs and coffee. I will say that the unit had been very well-cleaned.

It is a cute cottage/quarters in an old victorian home. Floors are uneven in some rooms and very squeaky. Especially from above. Outdoor area needs cleaning and organizing to be useful. Bathroom is updated but a little tight. Bed was comfortable but tight in room, up against one of the walls.
