Back Bay Cottage near Wildwood & Cape May

Welcome to Salt Marsh Cottage!

Outside, enjoy the rear deck made for golden-hour views of the coastal wetlands while watching the egrets, crabs and herons feed during high tide. Or simply relax with a beverage and watch the boats drift by through the nearby channel that runs behind the home.

Inside, the space is bright and comfortable with lots of natural light and vintage charm. Recently renovated and restored with modern amenities, while keeping its original 1940’s character. The space is ideal for a small family or a couple’s getaway.

Relax on the front porch, rinse off in the outdoor shower after a long beach day, and end it all watching the sky turn pink over the coastal wetlands. Perfect for up to 4 adults or a small family. A peaceful home base with one of the best sunset views in the Wildwoods-without the boardwalk noise.

Unique and laid-back cottage with year-round availability.
