Everything was excellent. Kitchen setup was great. Walking distance to beach and shops. The host was very helpful with booking and everything else. We have rented many vacation homes in different areas and overall this experience ranks with the top ones. Family especially enjoyed the front porch. Thank you for sharing your family home.

The location is perfect and the house is just lovely! Communication with the hosts was perfect as they reached out ahead of time and during the visit. The fact that I can fit so many people and my pets in a house this close to everything in downtown Cape May is a dream come true!

Lovely house! The living room area is bigger than it looks in pictures. Kitchen was large, clean, and well-stocked. It was nice to be able to walk everywhere. Host offered helpful tips and suggestions for stay and was easy to contact.
