About this house rental
Relax in this historic Cape May retreat on iconic tree-lined Washinton St. on a large sunlit enclosed porch with wall-to-wall windows watching vacationers and locals stroll by. Enjoy a meal with friends at the dining table or a cup of coffee at the breakfast bar looking out through the equally sunlit kitchen windows. Walls of windows brighten the large family room with nautical decor and comfy sofa with a pull-out queen bed. The retreat comes ready with sheets and Turkish towels. Two full baths, recently renovated, have large walk-in showers. The primary bedroom has an en-suite bathroom for convenience and privacy. Located just 3 blocks from the Washington Inn and other signature Cape May eats! Washington Street Mall is located just 5 short blocks away where you can shop, dine, or enjoy a cocktail in the Brown Room at Congress Hall. Looking for adventure, grab a house bike and a beach towel and head to Madison Ave Beach, less than one mile away! Sit and relax the day away or head to Grant Street beach or the Cove to catch some waves! Had enough of the beach? Grab your tennis racket and check out the Physick Estate, or call the Cape May Free ride to visit one of Cape May’s amazing winery’s. If you like to fish, you’re in the right spot with local charters or take a booze cruise on the Tiny Tiki out of South Jersey Marina! In Cape May, you can do nothing at all, but there will never be nothing to do!

10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026
Highly recommend! The house is beautiful, charming, and super clean. Location is perfect, easy walking distance to Washington Street Mall. The beach is walkable, though a bit farther. We usually drove about halfway and parked without any trouble. When we did walk to the beach, it was definitely doable. Parking for the cottage is street parking, but we never had any issues finding a spot in front of or close to the house. Gina is also a wonderful host. She was communicative before the trip and responded right away during our stay when we had a quick question. Overall, this was a percent trip and we can’t wait to come back to Cape May and stay at the house again.

We absolutely loved Gina's place! It has everything you could need and more. We SO appreciated having sheets & towels. Thank you! The home is gorgeous, beds comfy & loved having the bikes. All the information & more that you will need is in the email. Bike riding distance to many things. Thank you for a great stay!

Pros: great location, good communication with owner, plenty of room, good layout, airy and bright. brand new grill, nice bathrooms, comfortable beds
Cons: dated and worn feel, ants everywhere, holes in floor in kitchen, kitchen just too warm due to solar gain. Underpowered a/c units on hot days. Cheap countertop and appliances, not enough storage or food prep area in kitchen
