September Cape May
Our stay at this beautiful place was excellent. Starting from communicating with the hostess, the place itself, the location close to the beach and the places to visit around..all was charming and beautiful. Will definitely recommend this place to our friends and family and planning to return. Thank you to our hostess! JB

Sweet little cottage
Nicely furnished with everything you need. There is a wrap around porch that we really enjoyed. Comfortable beds and sofas for relaxing and getting a great nights sleep. Convenient to restaurants and shopping. We had several days of iffy weather but finally it cleared and we could enjoy the beach. Erin was very available if we had any issues and responded promptly. Overall a great place and pet friendly too. Our little dogs had a great time as well.

Easy back and forth to beach.
Myself, husband, and two children under the age of 10, along with our parents who are in their 70s spent a week here in mid summer. The walk to the beach was very easy, we were able to take multiple trips a day back-and-forth along with all the beach gear necessary for small kids. the beaches were clean and fun to hunt for unique stones and rocks. The water was nice and very shallow. We happen to be swimming, while some jellyfish appeared to be moving through and unfortunately two of us were stung. After that, we kept the swimming and splashing around to about knee height, which was easy to do and still very enjoyable. The house itself fit our needs.

Quiet beach getaway
This cottage had everything we needed for a relaxing week at the beach. We especially appreciated Erin's willingness to have pets in the house. This is our 3rd trip to North Cape May, but the first time we've been able to take our dog - she loved it! Being 1 block from the beach was wonderful & we were able to go back & forth multiple times a day. Although the yard is not entirely fenced, there are even some baby gates to block off the porch stairs so our dog could be on the porch with us. Provided linens, beach chairs & umbrellas were added plusses - especially when our dog took most of the back seat! We hope to come back soon!

Fall Getaway
We really enjoyed staying at your home. It was a quiet & beautiful neighborhood. Everything was close by,no more than a 10 minute drive,and we especially loved being that close to the bay. Our dog had a great time too. We are looking forward to coming back,this was the perfect spot.

About the host

Hosted by Erin Martin

Host profile image
We are city dwellers who love urban energy but also need to get back to nature regularly. In the years we've owned this home, we've fallen in love with the area...it has a great vibe all year long, together with amazing birds and other wildlife. (I never get tired of the dolphins!) We've been transitioning the yard from all rocks to native plants, with great results in terms of visiting birds and butterflies! We love biking into Cape May or Wildwood when we need some excitement, but otherwise, grilling out back and listening to the waves does the trick!

Why they chose this property

We were drawn to its amazing location on a short street, with the bay just a few steps away and creek in front of us. We thought it would be a great place to chillax -- and it is!
