Spend your days on a kayaking adventure or fishing right off the beach. Watch the stunning sunsets steps from your back door, then stargaze from your sumptuous hot tub or make memories around a crackling bonfire. From the spa-like bathroom complete with rain head to the cinematic 50” 4K TV, you can indulge in every amenity when you come home to rest after each incredible day. IG: stay.dreamspace Situated just 30 steps from the beach path, this original 1940’s Millman cottage was professionally decorated and landscaped by an award-winning horticulturalist. It is the perfect rental for a small family, a group of friends, or a romantic getaway! Please note that reservations made on Vrbo are subject to a non-refundable 4% credit card transaction fee. With its long history as a vibrant fishing business, continue the home’s tradition by casting a line next to the piers of the old dock and take home your catch to roast up on the outdoor grill. Relax in the backyard and delight in the provided yard games, or take the fun indoors with a selection of our favorite board games -- fun for the whole family! Launch your kayaks off the beach, which is accessible either by the property\`s private beach path or the public path located just 50 feet away. We have stocked a wide assortment of life jacket sizes and paddles for three kayaks -- two individual and one tandem. Cook to your heart\`s content in the completely renovated, vintage-inspired kitchen complete with cookware, tools, spices, microwave oven, coffee maker, toaster, refrigerator with ice maker, 4-burner electric range, dishwasher, and deep sink with multi-function faucet. Curl up on the 84-inch couch watching movies on the home’s brand-new, Samsung \`The Frame\` 50-inch 4K flatscreen television, ready for bingeing Netflix (included) or any streaming service you bring. Work remotely (if you have to) with free, fast, WiFi from Verizon Fios available throughout the cottage. Pamper yourself in the spa-like bathroom complete with a high-end, Italian rain shower system, teak shower bench, European dual-flush toilet, LG Washtower laundry machine, extra-plush towels, and toiletry essentials. Sleep like royalty on your luxury, queen-size bed, or queen-size, memory foam sleeper sofa appointed with hypoallergenic down-alternative hotel pillows and comforters, and silky smooth microfiber sheets. The bedroom is also equipped with a 32-inch Roku smart TV. Linens are provided!!! You will have full access to the cottage, kayaks, game storage and your own \*private\* newly-fenced yard. The cottage is located on a shared property with a detached storage garage and my house, which will not be accessible (unless I bake too many muffins). My family lives at a house on the same property, and I would be happy to facilitate an in-person check-in if I am around, or just chat about the gardens, wildlife, and local attractions! The Villas is the hidden gem of Cape May County: a peaceful, residential atmosphere with calm waters and natural, white sand beaches prized by locals. You are situated just a 15 minute drive to both downtown Cape May and Wildwood -- the choice is yours! This area is a nature-lover’s paradise: from the horseshoe crabs who have made a yearly pilgrimage to our white sand beaches for millions of years, to the endangered migratory birds who stop here to feed on their monumental journey North. Don’t forget to bring your scope to watch our stunning local bald eagles and osprey hunt just off-shore, or catch a glimpse of a pod of dolphins playing in the surf! The surrounding area is packed with things to do: spend the day roaming nearby downtown Cape May, America’s first seashore resort (4 beach tags included with your stay), sample one of the many local wineries and craft breweries, take an afternoon to visit the Cape May County Zoo, charter a whale and dolphin watching boat, sign up for a tour of the back bays, hike the high dune trail, climb to the top of the Cape May lighthouse, ride the rides at the Wildwood boardwalk, or watch the flag ceremony at Sunset beach. For your convenience, Duraflame logs can be purchased at the Lowes 3.5 miles away and firewood can be purchased from many small vendors in the area. Smaller grocery runs or quick food is less than a mile away at a Wawa, and the Rio Grande shopping area is less than 4 miles away. Please note that while the beaches are ideal for kayaking, walking, fishing, or watching the sun set, this beach is not ideal for swimming because of how shallow the bay is. There is also a 5 foot tide that causes the water to recede and reveal tidal pools. We recommend you download a tide clock app to track the tides for ideal kayaking! ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation -

Although it's a tiny house, the layout and design were beautiful, clean, and inviting. The landscaping made us feel like we were truly on vacation. Every single amenity was carefully considered to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. From the blueberry muffins upon arrival to the prompt responses, Donna is an amazing host. Most of all, I want to thank Donna for letting us bring our fur-son. We don’t feel complete on vacation unless he is with us. Most places have size restrictions or don’t allow dogs on the furniture, but Donna even supplies a blanket for them to lay on. Most beaches also don’t allow dogs, but the beach this property is on does, so we were able to create wonderful memories with him. The outdoor shower was super helpful too. We will definitely be back! ##### Joy R. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Annette S.

So happy my family got to stay here, thank you so much for letting us bring our fuzzy friend. This place is truly a 5 star place. You have everything you need and absolutely loved Cape May. The renting on Vrbo was a little confusing nothing to do with the owner or property, but checking out I was charged 1,000$ extra I guess for incidentals?? I guess I didn’t read correctly about that somewhere which gave me an over draft paying for the place. So just make sure you read the fine print somewhere for that hopefully I can get back. But other than that the place is an absolute gem, the furnishings and quality of everything is top notch great style and even enjoying my octopus hat! Would love to come back.

Our dog Koda especially loved his morning beach runs, chasing seagulls and enjoying the wide-open space. The outdoor patio was a true highlight-private, peaceful, and beautifully designed with a hot tub, firepit and lush garden, all securely fenced, which gave us peace of mind with Koda roaming freely. The hosts were warm and welcoming, and the quiet neighborhood made for a relaxing retreat. Downtown Cape May was just a 20 minute drive away, making it easy to enjoy the best of both worlds.
