About the host
Hosted by Sara Irick
Sara is an avid traveler. Thanks to HomeAway she has traveled to Portgual, Spain, France and Italy with her husband. Vacation should be a vacation. Learning from her experiences traveling with HomeAway rentals, she knows renters don't want to show up to a dirty house without enough beds for people. We've taken care of all the thinking so you can focus on the relaxing.
Sara will be available to you from your first inquiry through your stay to answer all of your questions about Cape May and the house. We take pride in our home and ability to make our guest's vacation a happy memory.

Why they chose this property
Cape May has long been a special place to Sara & Justin. Sara's large Italian family has been vacationing in Cape May since the 50's. A long-time dream of her Grandfather's was to buy a home in Cape May. Sara & Justin were married in Cape May in 2010 and were finally able to to purchase a place of their own in 2017. The moment they laid eyes on this beautiful farmhouse they felt the history and the many future memories their families would have in Cape May. They have been working to update the property since then. Historic homes are a labor of love and require constant upkeep that Sara & Justin love to do!
What makes this property unique
Large property, living in history (c.1775), close to the beach and the farms, privacy, and quiet!
