Welcome to your oceanfront home in Cape May! This newly-renovated cottage sits in the dunes, bringing the beach to you.

The beach is your backyard and only a few steps away down a picturesque path which opens to a breathtaking & secluded beach.

The space
Our cottage is situated in the beautiful and quiet neighborhood of Cape May Point. Park your car at the house and use the provided beach cruisers for your visit!

Take a breezy bike ride down Sunset Boulevard to downtown Cape May and enjoy the historic and vibrant Victorian homes, stroll down Washington Street for some shopping in the quintessential shops and hit the beach and boardwalk for an exciting day in the sun.

The famous Cape May Lighthouse is just down the street where you can climb to the top for scenic views, or bike through the state park.

Don’t forget to check out the nearby Nature Reserve- world famous for its variety of birds which is why Cape May Point is a Birders dream vacation spot.

Neighborhood highlights

It truly doesn’t get better than Cape May Point. Here, you’ll enjoy a whole home to yourself, quiet streets with families and couples strolling by, incredibly easy access to the beaches with paths at every turn and the soothing sound of the waves crashes just over the dunes.

The beaches at The Point are wide open and never busy, as they require a residential beach tag for access. You’ll never have to fight crowds or wrestle your beach gear to enjoy the beaches here. Beach tags are provided as part of your stay so all you’ll need to pack is a towel and sunscreen and we’ll do the rest with complimentary beach chairs & umbrella as well as a beach cart to toss all of your things in and go.

Walk one house over from the cottage and you enter a picturesque path over the dunes and emerge to a clean, soft sandy beach with breathtaking views and all the space in the world for you and your group to spread out and enjoy.

The ocean water directly behind the cottage has been dubbed “Dolphin Cove” as you’ll see large pods of dolphins every day swimming and playing just off the shore line. Talk about special memories!
