Great Off-Season Weekend Stay in Cape May

Great house for our adult weekend. Nine middle aged adults who behaved ourselves (mostly) had a wonderful stay catching up, etc while in town for a friend's retirement at the Cape May Coast Guard base. Lots of bedrooms and superb kitchen/dining area and livingroom for hanging out together. Kitchen had full complement of dishes, pots and glasses available. Landlord's instructions and process are pretty straightforward. There's a king-bed room on the main floor with its own bathroom that was ideal for a friend who doesn't like stairs. This is a great place for a big family with kids or a bunch of friends to spend a week in Cape May during the in-season.

Thanksgiving at Fox Den

This was our first visit to Cape May and we were a bit spoiled by this beautiful home. First the house is beautifully appointed and everything you could possibly need to prepare a thanksgiving dinner is here. The layout of the house makes it ideal for extended families,affording some privacy. The location was ideal with a short walk to the village and the beach. I would highly recommend FoxDen and extremely happy with our stay.

The most perfect house in Cape May

My 3 friends and I took a 4 day fall vacation in Cape May and couldn't have been happier with our accommodations. Every detail of comfort has been considered and we experienced an enjoyable time in Cape May and in the house. Everything in the house is clean, new and bright which gave us a feeling of security and happiness. Communication with the owners was perfect and check in was very convenient.We can't wait to return to the Fox's Den again!

About the host

Hosted by Thomas Fox, Colleen Fox

We grew up in the Philadelphia area and live in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Since purchasing our home we've offered our home to guests mainly during the summer months, but recently decided to rent out home off season also. Our growing family uses the family Cape May home throughout the year.
Recently, when we were away on vacation, we noted a quote which describes our rental experiences : "A stranger is a friend you haven't met yet. - Anonymous". We are appreciative of the many relationships developed with “guests” who have vacationed at the Fox Den. We welcome the chance to speak with you about our home and ask you to consider it as you make your vacation plans.

Why they chose this property

Because Cape May is uniquely a "year round" seashore community, our family fell in love with the town, the activities, and events offered throughout the four seasons. There is something to do for all four generations in our family. Since purchasing our home, we've been delighted that so many families make the "Fox Den" their vacation home year after year. From our experience, vacation time can create wonderful memories. We work hard to offer a great product with the hope that the "Fox Den" feels like a home away from home for you.

What makes this property unique

Our home feels beachy! Whether you are sitting on the porch, the comfy couches, or taking an outside shower under the stars, you know you are at a beach home on vacation. We appreciate that many of our guest choose the "Fox Den" year after year as their Cape May go-to place. Being able to walk anywhere in town is so enjoyable! Our grandkids love being able to walk to the beach, grocery store, ice cream shop, and mini golf. Our guests love being able to walk to restaurants, pick up a bottle of wine and relax in the backyard conversation pit after a busy Cape May day. Because there are bedrooms, laundry facilities, and family rooms on both floors, our home works for multiple generations or families.
