Great Stay at the Cambridge Cottage

My family had a wonderful stay at the Cambridge Cottage. The property was clean, in a great location. The backyard's tucked-away outdoor shower is worth the stay alone! Sarah was a great communicator and the check-in/check-out process was very straightforward. We'd certainly stay there again.

Refreshing, Comfortable, and Clean Cottage for 3 Adults

Really liked the layout of the cottage as-well-as the long dining table where we played games. Beach umbrella came in handy on sunny days. Very close to the State Park and beach, and not too far from the town. Neighborhood is a nice area for a walk. Communication with Sarah was great!

About the host

Hosted by Sarah

Host profile image
We are an active family that enjoys the beaches, biking, birding, nature and everything Cape May Point has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this cottage because it had been recently renovated, but still retained the charm of the original cottage. It was a place you could kick back and feel relaxed. We have tried to maintain the charm from the 1940s, such as its original windows, siding, wood flooring and antique door knobs.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful original charm throughout the home and a peaceful backyard where you can enjoy seeing the occasional bunny, turtle, or butterfly. The central location is also wonderful as you can walk anywhere in Cape May Point.
