8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2025
The house is very beautiful, with lots of flowers and well maintained. A bit far from the beach but we knew that when renting this property. Washington street is very nice. Two things that need improvement: dishwashed does not work well (we had to clean most dishes manually) and the water pressure in the kitchen sink was extremely low. Very hard to operate at times.Overall a nice stay in Cape May.

Everything about our stay was really wonderful! The house is more than just a rental - it feels like a home. It is comfortable and beautifully appointed with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Both bathrooms were lovely - and we particularly loved the first floor shower (the best rain shower I’ve ever used!). There is a perfect porch off the back of the home overlooking a beautiful garden - it was ideal for relaxing and reading after the beach! There was one reserved parking spot right in front of the house; we had two cars, and we never had a problem finding a spot nearby. The location was convenient to both town and the beach, too! We would definitely stay here again!

Excellent from start to finish. Daniel and his wife are so helpful; happy to provide suggestions and always available. The house is beautiful, cozy and comfortable. The location is a perfect balance of quiet and close to the Cape May “action”!
