Great quiet location
We stayed here for our annual sisters-in-law trip, and had a great time. The house was clean and the kitchen well-stocked. Note that you will need to bring your own sheets, towels, body wash and shampoo. The owners live in the big White House next door and were super friendly and helpful. We had an awesome stay.

Secluded and quiet stay near all the action
Terrific location that was quiet and relaxing, just a quick drive to get to any of Cape May’s attractions.
The fenced-in area was so helpful with our dogs.
We had a minor issue when we arrived that was remedied within minutes. Chuck and Barbara couldn’t have been better hosts!

Cape May Vacation
This was a wonderful vacation. Property was immaculate,
kitchen well stocked. Location was good a short ride to the beach or into town.
My only suggestion would be an outdoor shower, or a hose to rinse off before entering house after the beach.

West Cape May - Relaxing and Quiet Getaway
This is a town I grew up in and have been vacationing for decades so it was easy to search for areas I wanted accommodations. I was looking for quiet and laid back and that’s exactly what I got. Everything is close so just 5 minutes away from town and the beach has its own vibe.
The accommodations were simple and well maintained.
This listing provided a great escape for catching up with my kids and their partners and grandchild.
Hammock out front is house under the trees was very relaxing and used often. A few of us fell asleep on it.
The house was clean and the owner left notes in various locations to assist with questions we may have had.
If I need a place that fits 6 comfortably, I will check to see if the home is available again.

Perfect fall getaway!
We loved the Cottage! It is beautifully furnished, had everything we needed, was super clean, and had plenty of storage space for our gear. The hammock, pond, and grounds are all a fun bonus. We are big fans of West Cape May and loved the proximity to Rea’s, Beach Plum Farm, and Willow Creek Winery. We didn’t expect a great forecast but the Cape May bubble came through and it was a gorgeous weekend with only a couple hours of evening rain… so we even spent time on the beach!

Hidden gem, minutes from everywhere!
My husband and I booked this property for our Anniversary getaway, with our dog "Doc". Everything about the place was wonderful! It was a sweltering 90 degrees and humid when we arrived and the AC was pumping away for our moving in process. "The mowers", who were still mowing when we arrived, turned out to be the owner who lives next door. He was immediately welcoming and courteous. Ended up having some nice visits with him through our stay. Great guy. I was weary of leaving Doc crated in an unfamiliar town, but I felt very safe about it after meeting the owner. Dog beach was a 15 minute drive to Wildwood, and we would return in the afternoon to enjoy the shaded porch area where Doc stared longingly at the pond full of ducks and geese. The house is clean, comfortable, and has everything you need. I am so happy we fell upon this listing. Thank you for sharing your beautiful 5 acres of serenity with us. We hope to return!

House may be on 5 acres but there are 3 others house right on top of you. Neighbors are friendly but if you are looking for a little privacy this isn’t it. You sit out front facing the road as there is not a big back yard with any deck or chairs. Clean and nice to stay at.

Not fit for rent
We booked the property for 10 days. Upon arrival, we found that the basement, garage and electrical system were under renovation . We found the basement flooded, electrical cables and appliances sitting in water and two snakes moving around. We immediatly informed the agency that we would move out the very next day and expected a full refund. Neither the manager nor the owner accepted any reaponsibility and both categorically refused to refund any amount. VRBO registered the issue but declined any responsibility and refused to consider any process that would lead to compensation.
