Relaxing and Close to a Whirlwind of Fun!

This cottage is sooooo cute and comfortable! It is located away from the hustle and bustle of both Cape May and Wildwood, yet is is only a few minutes drive (about 15 minutes) to all the action. This was perfect for my family, who are used to Maine vacations near Acadia National Park. As the pictures show, the house opens right onto the sand of the beach on the bay. We spent mornings walking along the shore looking for sea glass, and my husband would get up early to fish. Imagine! A cup of coffee and the lapping waves on the shore in the wee hours of the morning. We saw sting rays feeding in the morning and a flock of pelicans. My son even caught a ray (by accident). The beaches in Cape May are beyond compare....white sand, big surf...and Wildwood is a carnival setting at all times of the days. My family was most impressed by the dolphins off the shore of Cape May. We saw them passing the lighthouse as the the sun was setting...What a show! The cottage was clean and neat, and Paula, the owner has just added a new queen bed. It had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable and feel like we were coming home after a full day of fun. And, Paula was clear and attentive. She called on our second day to check in and make sure we had everything we needed. The house has a few quirks that we could deal with. (The doors were difficult for my children to open, especially on the patio. And, the unit is attached to two other smaller units, which we did not imagine from the pictures.) But none of these really bothered us. (We never saw any of the neighbors.) If you are looking for peace and quiet, but you want the option to join in on the activities, this house is perfect for you.
