Perfect July 4th week!

The house was comfortable and we had everything we needed for a fabulous beach week. We loved the easy walk to the beach and all beach gear provided… access to nearby running and walking nature trails… short jaunt to Sunset beach, the Lighthouse and park, wineries, and incredible restaurants. The weather was perfect as were our accommodations!

Perfectly located small cottage / house just blocks from the beach. Had the best of times staying at The Point. Just amazing sitting on front porch in the morning having coffee and saying hi to everyone walking by with their dogs. House is well equipped, has great AC. We've stayed in Cape May proper before and this is quieter and more relaxing. Beach is perfect and relaxing. Cannot wait to go back
