Our large family gathered here from both coasts of the US to spend a week this July. It was a great location and lots of space to accommodate everyone and all of our cars. An hour delay at check in was a bummer after a long day of travel, but that was the only issue we had all week. The kitchen was well stocked. The host was very responsive. The location is perfect and we enjoyed many hours relaxing on the porch.

Perfect Location

The house was conveniently located steps from the beach and close to town. There was plenty of room for our large group. The layout is a little awkward , but that is to be expected for a Victorian modified to add bedrooms and bathrooms. We had a great time!

Convenient and Comfortable Beach Stay

This house has everything you need for a beach vacation. It is close to the beach (about a block). The house has a nice kitchen and a lovely front porch. The bedrooms were as described and comfortable for our group. The downstairs bedroom suite is good for anyone with mobility issues. Overall we had a wonderful stay and will return next year!

Incredible location, numerous bedrooms

we came back to stay at this location because of the proximity to the beach and number of. The house could use some updating for the price. There were yard toys left around the yard from the previous tenant, and the icemaker had mold in it. Additionally, one of the bathrooms could not be used due to a leak which required handyman to come on three separate days for a period of time and one of the guest was a three-month-old infant who was sleeping during two of those visits. They need to be in the house on beach days on separate occasion was frustrating, especially since during our day last year, the laundry machine was not working. Finally, there was an icemaker on hand, but it had mold in it, which was disappointing.

Thank you for your review. Wear and tear is expected during a busy season and managing an old Victorian property requires specal care from owners and tenants. Where there is a problem, we are quick to respond as evidenced in the leak situation.

Cape May Vacation

Great location and a nice roomy house for a large group. We like to eat outside, particularly for lunch, since everyone is damp and sandy. This was not easy here. Outdoor hose and shower not we'll located and shower not private. We also like to eat in and cook, and the kitchen was good for this. Could not fit everyone in dining room and was carpeted.

Loved this place.

This house is perfectly located close to the beach, promenade, and Washington Mall. Acme is a 5 min walk. This lovely old home is well appointed for a large family like ours. The kitchen is newly redone and large and well laid out for cooking lots of food. The host (Deena Cote) is very responsive to messages and requests, and took good care of us. When the washer was broken she paid for a wash and fold service at a local laundromat. She has a local handyman who can help with some problems pretty quickly, and called right away for service when the TVs weren’t working. One of us was partially disabled, and the first floor worked well for us with minimal assistance needed for that person.

Great location - misinformation on beds

A year ago 7/31/2023, I inquired about bed configurations in the various bedrooms. Host summarized: Hi, here is the bed and bathroom configuration First Floor: • Junior Suite: Queen bed with a bathroom (and crib if needed.) Large dining room. Two living areas. Bathroom and shower. Second Floor: • 2 Rooms; each with one queen bed both sharing one bathroom outside) • Large. Bedroom Suite with 2beds: queen bed and double bed with bathroom •large bedroom Suite with 3 beds: 1 queen bed and 2 single beds • Main suite: 1 king bed and bathroom Third Floor: • Junior Suite: Queen bed with bathroom • Large bedroom with two single beds and bathroom outside • Large bedroom Suite with one queen bed and one single bed With final instructions on 8/1/24, suddenly there was one queen bedroom suite, one king suite and all other queen beds were now doubles requiring queen sized sheets. Three married couples ended up sleeping separately in double and twin beds as doubles are TOO small for the average adult. Beach location is wonderful. House is well stocked with beach accessories, cooking supplies, etc. The bed issue was very IRKSOME!!

Huge DIY house close to beach

The pros of this property were that the house was huge and it can fit large groups and it was a very short walk to the beach which was convenient. Washington street mall, and the grocery store was a 10 min walk, there was mini golf at the end of the block and a few good restaurants all in walking distance. However, there were many cons. The house is very old and needs lots of renovations which should be done to make stays more enjoyable. There are overgrown greenery along the house which doesn’t look presentable. The locks on the doors are either impossible to turn the key or they don’t lock completely which is a safety issue. While walking through the house there were numerous cracks on the ceiling and walls where the paint/Sheetrock were almost falling off. Walls were stained as well as carpets and sofas. Owner provides toilet paper but you need to bring everything else like shampoo, towels, sheets, etc. The house could be gorgeous but it needs many renovations and with the amount of money paid for this house it definitely wasn’t worth it considering not much was supplied and the safety concerns and things that were lacking in quality. I could write much more but the site states that I wrote too much and it won’t allow anymore. We’ve stayed in many rentals so we have a lot to compare this house to and unfortunately it was lacking in many areas.

Laura, thank you for your comments. Reflecting on your stay with us, we recognise this was a difficult week for you and your family as reflected by our discussions by calls and texts. We understand family relations can be stressful and we are honoured to serve our guests in such times of stress. You are quite correct to note that our house is more like a "bare boat" charter in the Carribean than a full service hotel which we are not. We are proud of our stewardship of this grand 1857 historical lady and we wish you the best in finding what better suits you and your 26-member family.

Cape May Perfection

This was the absolutely perfect place for the gathering of our large family. So many bedrooms, so many bathrooms and so many showers. Great living room/dining area and kitchen. We appreciated the one first level bedroom and private bath due to mobility issues. Built in 1875, perfect in 2022. Bob and Rose

Great location

This house is in a great location: one block from the beach and a few blocks from the Washington Street mall. The kitchen and one bathroom on the main level have been updated. The house is very big and gives a lot of room for a large group. The parking easily took our 4 cars. The owner is very responsive to questions/issues. There were a few minor drawbacks. None of the doors close properly so there really isn't a way to secure the house when you go out. Water in the upstairs bathrooms comes out of the faucets brown (rust) and the sink and tub in the large 2nd floor bedroom/bathroom are unusable as they don't drain. The landscaping is just weeds, which in Cape May is an anomaly. All this is minor and didn't detract from a fun week. I just think that for the price we expected more.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 July 2021
Thank you for staying at our property this summer. We did our best to accomodate your large family in our home. I will take your feedback on landscaping to our gardener who is at the property weekly to tend to our green space. He is a local and works for many other houses in our city so I am certain that he will be interested in knowing his work across the neighborhood was qualified as an anomaly. There was indeed one external glass door which did not lock and we offered to send our handyman to fix it but we respected your objection for him to be at the house during your stay. That door (which is an external facade to a door that locks) has already been fixed. All plumbing around the house is checked annually and we have a plumber on demand for any blocked drainage that results from sand being washed off during showers when residents do not follow the house rule of washing off sand at the outdoor shower before walking into the house. I am delighted to hear your overall week was a fun experience and wish you peace for the rest of your summer.

Perfect for our family

Loved staying at this property. All the rooms were good size, and so many bathrooms. Earlier review complained about not enough large serving bowls or pot/ pans. There were numerous large items to use. Also they had 2 rooms on 1st floor that act as living room spaces. This worked well for vs 1 massive room, as we had all the kids in 1 room, adults in the other. Kitchen was large and excellent. Washer/ Dryers are little high tech, and took little getting used to. The frig on 2nd floor needs to be repaired/ replaced but really wasn't a big deal. We just made better use of the large kitchen fridge. House has nice porch area thats sits many guests, and we had no trouble with the parking situation. Getting such a large house in July in cape may for the price they are charging is a great deal.
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Mar 2020
Thanks David for your comments. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay. A new fridge to replace the second fridge will be installed this week. So the house will have two functional large fridges. Hope to see you next season.

Fantastic relaxing house with plenty of romm!

Loved the location and the amount of people the house could accommodate. Easy walk to town and just off the beach. Kitchen was updated and the extra dryer was a good addition. The front porch was great to hang out on as well! The rooms were nice and the AC units (these are mounted on the wall and connected to outside units) were great, quiet and efficient. Overall great house and stay!

House has a great location. Air conditioning worked great. Few issues I had see below.

For a house that holds 20+ people ,and I have rented a few, the house is not prepared for the amount of people. 1 small recycling can. That was filled on arrival. 2 small trash cans also maxed out on arrival. For a house for 20+ people. I have never seen a house with no living room. Totally unacceptable. I would have never rented it for this amount of money if I knew. Also no large pots ,pans,serving bowls or serving utensils. How can you cook for 20+ people with pans for a family of 4? Other than that the house has a great porch. A fantastic location. Plenty of rooms with great a/c. Could use TV in bedrooms. Also one shower unit in one of the bedrooms was broken. Had a good week with my family that is what counts. I have rented large houses in Cape May for the last 5 yrs. Personally for the price point I paid I think the house could have been a little better prepared for The amount of people it holds.
