A charcoal grill is available to use in the yard with our new patio that was installed for the 2023 season.

The entrance to the apartment is by a private side stairway off Jefferson Street.
Our family has been sharing the Cape May Vacation House with rental guests for over 50 years and every effort has been made towards our guests' comfort.
Very clean and well-provisioned.
Great location
Clean place in a great location.
Great location, quick response from owner. I like outdoor patio and having laundry capabilities on site.
We had a wonderful stay!
This was our first Vrbo stay with family and everything worked out just fine. The house is very charming and we had plenty of room for all eight of us. The listing is accurate - there is a climb to get into the apartment, so you will get your steps in for the day when loading in and out. The kitchen/dining space was a bit tight when we all sat down to eat, but we cooperated and worked around that one item. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The neighborhood was quiet, and the proximity to the beach was great (and it was a flat walk, only 3 blocks). About 5-6 blocks from the Washington Mall. We would recommend others consider this gem in our favorite vacation city.
We had a great family vacation at the property which was central to everything. As advertised, it is on the upper floors, so keep that in mind. a lot of stairs packing/unpacking the car if you have little kids that can't help much.
The entire process from start to finish was smooth, even received a couple of hand written notes from the property owner Wes which was very nice! The house was very clean and well-maintained. It’s 25 steps up from the street to the second floor so anybody with mobility issues may have a problem. Wes and Linda were on site most of the time and were friendly and accessible. It was great to have a washer and dryer in the basement although it’s a little tight getting down into the basement because you have to duck underneath steps and a low doorway but that’s probably not unusual for a home that’s 100 years old. The kitchen is well equipped and we found everything to be in working order throughout all the rooms. It’s about a three block walk to the beach and to the Washington St. Mall. The location is very quiet. There was always ample offstreet parking if you have multiple vehicles. The outdoor shower was certainly a nice feature for after the beach although it is a little tight.
The house was very well maintained and comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet with a short walk to the beach. The owners were a pleasure to work with.
We really enjoyed our stay here! We had a little trouble with the AC when we first arrived, but figured out the issue and had no problems the rest of the week. The owner was very responsive. The place was very clean and the kitchen was absolutely beautiful and certainly suited our needs. We realized a gas grill might have been more efficient than the charcoal grill and an area to sit and eat outside would have been nice, but other than that, we had a really wonderful experience and would definitely consider coming back!!
Property was nice and clean. Owners were great to work with. House is close to beach and mall. Would have been nice to have a seating area outside.
819 Benton is a great location for a Cape May vacation! The beach, strolling along Washington Steet Mall, restaurants, historic spots, bike rentals, ice cream, even the Acme supermarket are only a few minutes walk away. The house is a perfect blend of modern beach house and cool Cape May! We had a great week!
The rental process and communication was easy. Only issues were minor....the saloon style doors in the upstairs bedrooms didn't leave for much privacy. The tub in the upstairs bathroom drained very slowly. Overall though, we enjoyed the stay, location, and house. We'd rent from there again.
