Very peaceful and relaxing place

It is a very nice and clean house. We enjoyed evenings on the screened porch and morning coffee on the patio. Beautiful location, just across from the local winery, and just few minutes walk to the local farms for a yummy breakfast or lunches. Short drive to the beach. Convenient location for biking to the lighthouse, sunset beach or cape may point. Susan was very responsive and resourceful. We loved our stay. Thank you!

Lovely property and gracious host!

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The location was superb for our 3 person group of avid birders. We particularly enjoyed relaxing on the comfy screened in porch or playing board games at the kitchen table in the evening after a full day of birding atround Cape May. Thank you Susan for your warm hospitality!

Great Spot!

Just got back from a nice April break at Vineyard Vista and my family and I give it a resounding thumbs up. It's a great, clean, comfortable home in the best, most laid back part of Cape May. A short bike ride to a lovely farm and vineyard, to beautiful beaches and nature preserves, and to fun eateries. And it's just far enough away from downtown (which is only minutes away) to feel like another world. And Susan is attentive and super nice. I hope we all return again some fine day!

Perfect for my family's needs

The house is great! We like a big kitchen, as we like to cook. There is plenty of room in the house for our family of four. Not to mention the house was very clean upon arriving. We didn't get to use the backyard as much as we'd have liked due to rain, but it's perfect for hanging out and grilling. Next up: the screened-in front porch, right across the street from Willow Creek Winery. Perfect view, comfortable furniture. I highly recommend this house to anyone with a family or even a couple. West Cape may is quiet, close to farms, the lighthouse, and birding sites. It really was a "home away from home" and I highly recommend it!

This house was nicely decorated. The weather was nasty the whole time we were there. This did not allow us to use any of the outside features of this property that looked very inviting. There were many things that we disliked about the property. 1. The towel rack in the main bathroom kept falling apart.2. The whole house had a musty smell.3. The hard wood floors were severely crooked in the kitchen area. ( seems like the painted stencils were a coverup).4. Both entrance doors had glass windows. Neither had blinds or curtains .5. The bunk beds have several screws loose.6. Furniture not very comfortable.7. Queen bed frame is very wobbly.8. We did bring our own towels and linens because we seen it on another review. I did message Susan and she confirmed it. This should be disclosed in the description of the property. Probably won’t have booked it if we knew in advance.9. One little ice tray is not enough.10. The stove needs to be leveled because it wobbles.11. Bathtub very slippery, my wife nearly fell. Maybe install non slip strips.We were very disappointed in this rental. It was so uncomfortable we went home a day early. Most of these items I mentioned could easy be fixed.

Paradise

Clean, comfortable private home across from wine vineyard, beach plum farm and Rea’s family farm. We biked everyday to the beach and to town. Biking distance to the lighthouse, sunset beach, nature trails and bird conservatory. The house was very comfortable. We did a lot of cooking, used the outdoor grill and outdoor dining area. Susan does a great job of creating a comfortable, private haven for vacation. Would happily stay here every Summer.

Great stay at Vineyard Vista - highly recommend this property

My family just returned from a week long stay at Vineyard Vista. Had an awesome stay. Cottage is clean and decorated beautifully. We loved the big kitchen, screened in front porch, and back yard. The West Cape May location is perfect - across the street from a winery and a short walk to Beach Plum farm. The beaches in Cape May and Cape May Point are a short bike ride (or drive) away. Susan is a great host - easy to communicate with and pleasant. She gave us lots of great recommendations for places to see, restaurants, and watering holes. We rented bikes and visited a number of great places - lighthouse, lookout tower, CM meadows, Sunset beach, Higbee beach (seaglass), mini golf, Revolution Rail, Nauti distillery (great drinks and atmosphere), and the ferry. We plan to visit again (hopefully) in the future.

Great location, you can bike to all the attractions; favorite ride was to Sunset Beach. House was good size for our group of 6. Everyone enjoyed the screened in front porch. The kitchen is well equipped and the half bath spacious enough to double as laundry room. The Host was welcoming and lives next door; was available for any help/questions without being intrusive.

Great house, great location

Communication with the property manger was simple and easy. Checking in couldn’t have been easier. The pictures don’t do the house justice. Kitchen was more fully stocked than you could imagine. We were told we needed linens, towels, and paper products, which was a little strange at first, never had a rental house like that, but was totally fine. Don’t let that discourage you from this perfect rental! They actually had a ton of extra blankets at the house too. 5 ladies went for a wine weekend and was so lovely. Across from Willow Creek which is the best winery we went to in Cape May. That was the only place we could walk to. Had to drive and under everywhere else, but was within less than 15 minutes of everywhere in town. It was the absolute perfect place for a ladies wine weekend. Just a lovely place and time.

Location was perfect and screened in porch was nice but cottage was dark and damp. There were light bulbs out in some of the fixtures. The twin bedroom was extremely tight for two people. Susan was great to deal with, quick to respond, and made things easy!

Hi Ferne, I am sorry you felt that way about Vineyard Vista? And I'm actually shocked. There was a family of 4 from Vermont just the week prior to your stay (their review is on VRBO for your veiwing) and gave the property 5 stars across the board. As 95% of our guests do. I must admit that I only have 3 active light bulbs in the dining room chandelier because I personally find it too bright with all 5 bulbs in. Even at a lower wattage. Sorry that the weather didn’t cooperate. But it was a rainy, damp weekend.

Perfect location for a getaway!

My husband and I stayed at Vineyard Vista and it proved to be the perfect rental for us. We love what West Cape May has to offer. This house is walking distance to Willow Creek Winery, Beach Plum Farm, The Bird Observatory, and our favorite walking beach The Cove. The house was clean and tidy with a beautiful front porch perfect for catching the sunset over the Vineyard. We hope to visit Vineyard Vista again this summer!

About the host

Hosted by Susan Gorski

Host profile image
I bought my first house in West Cape May in 1998 as my beach house. I bought the house next door, which we named Vineyard Vista in 2008.

In 2012 I retired from being a skincare expert on TV to live full time in West Cape May. I have now dedicated my time transforming spaces to best host guests at numerous properties throughout Cape May County and the Fort Pierce area of FL

Why they chose this property

Vineyard Vista (VV) is centrally positioned on the island of Cape May in the coolest area of all called West Cape May. Although we are nestled in the farmland area, overlooking a winery and farm, we are also less than a mile from the coast of the Atlantic Ocean (a nice walk through South Cape Meadows to a protected area of what locals call The Cove.) You have the best of all worlds at VV as you are set privately in your own peaceful sanctuary, but you are also close to everything on the island! (Please see map for actual location)

What makes this property unique

Vineyard Vista is A real craftsman bungalow, originally built in the 1920s - tastefully remodeled in an upscale, artful, bohemian style inspired by the time in which it was built. VV is a one-of-a-kind, charming beach home that is ready for you and your best Cape May vacation ever experienced.
