About this property

OSPREY NEST- 5 star reviews• Secluded Cape May Escape• Gardens • Near Beaches

Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in North Cape May, the Osprey Nest is a three-room suite designed for comfort, privacy, and gentle coastal living.

Wake to birdsong, sip coffee on the porch, explore Cape May by day, then return to a calm and comfortable space to unwind.
