Yacht Avenue Waterview Cottage

Quaint cottage in a private area in Cape May! Cottage was well equipped, cozy and comfortable! Great fenced in back yard for our dog - she settled in easily. Convenient for food, gas and the beach! Property was very clean. Hostess was very accommodating and helpful! We will be back!

This cottage was perfect for our little get away, of course a big plus for us is that it is pet friendly with a fenced in back yard and a deck with a pet/baby gate that could be used to block the steps. We felt very comfortable allowing our dog to access the deck whenever he wanted with minimal supervision.

THE PORCH

The cottage is absolutely adorable. If you are looking for swanky and modern with all the amenities, this is not the place for you. If you are looking for simple and quaint and relaxing you have found the perfect spot. I came to do some bird watching and spend time walking the sanctuaries but once I sat on the porch I couldn't find a good reason to leave. There is no better way to explain the porch other than PERFECT!!

Lovely Cottage

This lovely bayside cottage was the perfect choice for my family and I. With a full patio, fire pit, and direct access to the water, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Michelle communicated well with us and was a wonderful host.

A relaxing stay at the shore

We wanted a place that would feel like we were vacationing at the beach even if we were not physically on the sand. We found it! We really loved the covered deck where we spent much of our time. The furnishings and decorations are comfortable and beachy. And with a pier, next time I'll bring my fishing rod. It's an easy walk to numerous restaurants and many of the deliver. It's very near a Wawa for convenience runs. The only thing we felt was a downside was no AC in the living room where the TV is but overall a great vacation!

Hi Robert, the temperature and specifically humidity were so posed to drop by 15 degrees so we unplugged the air and moved to the laundry room and opened the living room windows for fresh air, we could have easily come down and put back in for you darling you didn't say anything

The location is not too far from downtown Cape May and a nice pause from the crowds. The property is quaint and charming.

Awesome Stay in Cape May!

Cute cottage: adorable upstairs bedroom for two pre-teen girls and nicely furnished downstairs. Back porch is set-up great for enjoying a meal looking out over the water. We loved the harbor location not too far from the beach! Definitely would stay here if we ever found ourselves in Cape May again!
