Great place with plenty of room for our party (4 adults, 1 child). The place was clean, well stocked with necessities, and in a fantastic location. We were able to walk to everything we planned to do. The 2 included parking spaces were very helpful and check in instructions were clear. We would definitely stay here again!

Location of this property is outstanding! Walkable to almost everything we wanted to visit. And the beach box with umbrella and chairs was sooo convenient. Kitchen had everything we needed. Had a minor glitch with check-in that was not a fault of owners; it was a VRBO issue. Meg checked in to be sure all was well - very much appreciated. All in all, a comfortable, clean, well-located property. Would easily stay here again!

We had a lovely experience in this home even though upon arrival the water wasn't on. The owner was very responsive and it was quickly resolved. The owner incredibly and generously compensated us for the inconvenience. The upstairs neighbors are helpful and kind. We had a fantastic stay. The layout of the house is a little different than we expected with the online pictures, but the living room area was comfortable and cozy. It is conveniently located to all Cape May has to offer. It is several blocks from the beach, but we were not planning on beach time since it was a March visit. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the owner and the other owners in this unit. If you choose to stay at this home, you will be well taken care of. Thank you, Meg.

It was a great size, but smelled like a dog had been there even though no pets are allowed. The water in the showers never got hot. Most of the furniture could be cleaned or replaced - especially the couch and bench at the table. But good location too and 2 parking spots were a plus.

Response from VrboOwner on 7 December 2025
Hi Katie! This is disappointing to hear. I have no idea why it would smell like a dog! We absolutely don’t allow pets but I suppose it’s possible and if I had known during your stay I could have investigated or arranged for another cleaning. As far as furniture is concerned I take that seriously and am arranging for a cleaning and/or replacements over the off season as we speak. I’m truly sorry these issues detracted from your stay.

Meg and John were excellent in responding to an issue regarding what I'll call "room readiness". They not only had the issue resolved within 2 hours but they also provided us with a 100 refund for "any inconvenience the issue caused". A pleasant surprise and very appreciated.

About the host

Hosted by Meg

Host profile image
Cape May is a very special place for us. We married at Peter Shields Inn (a must try dining experience during your stay) on Beach Avenue in 2016 so it is our home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We absolutely love the location of our second home on Washington street since it's so close to Cape May's fabulous little shops and restaurants. It is less than a 10 min walk to the gorgeous beach so you really can park your car for the duration of your stay and plan to stroll the the adorable tree lined streets and marvel at the historic Victorian homes. Come stay and fall in love with our beach retreat and Cape May like we did!

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location! Whether you want to dine, shop or lounge at the beach you are steps to it all! Enjoy all Cape May has to offer year all year round.
