.Located in Villas, New Jersey, 2 blocks from the bay beaches and 8 miles north of historic Cape May, this cozy, cottage style apartment was just freshly painted and redecorated in 2023.

Not only do you get to enjoy the colorful garden display, but the cottage walls are decorated with the original “Streets of Cape May” panorama series along with original floral and nature art to enjoy and even purchase to take home with you.

The delightful, dog-friendly Bay Beaches are right down the road for long morning and evening walks with your best friend. Sunsets and other wildlife abound.

    My husband and I and our dog stayed four nights in Lisa's lovely little cottage. Unfortunately it rained every day we were there so didn't get the chance to enjoy her beautiful yard. We were fortunate to have a very clean, comfortable and cozy place to spend time in. It's obvious Lisa cares about the comfort of her guests and is respectful of their privacy while also making herself available if needed. The cottage is nicely adorned with her beautiful artwork and the decor emanates warmth and comfort. The neighborhood is quiet and the location perfect for doing anything of interest in the Cape May area. The historic district is a 15 minute drive and the bay is a quick 2 block walk. We hope to return in sunny warm weather.

    Lisa is a great host, she was very attentive to our needs, the property is really cute and cozy and is situated in a great location, just about 50 yards from the bay, we enjoyed our walks with our pet, restaurants and stores nearby, I would recommend this property to a family/friend and will visit again.

    Very nice experience, the place was clean, bed was comfortable, close to the beach and welcoming for my pooch. The host gave excellent communication, was extremely accommodating with check in/out process and even had the air conditioner and fans on prior to our arrival to cool the place during the heat wave/alert.

    Listen to What a Wonderful World by Louis Amstrong, and you will get a bit of the feeling I had at Sweet Pea Cottage, which is very confortable and perfect for two and a little dog. It was, for my wife and me, a place of calm, beauty (Lisa is a master gardener) and rejuvenating time. The neighborhood was also very calm so for us from the big city it was all a blessing. Reading on the long chair, looking at the garden, and eating at night in the gazebo were moments of intimacy with my wife. The sunset beach was our preferred place to swim and take sun. So a 10 on 10 !!

    The property had beautiful flowering gardens and trees. The owner Lisa was very helpful and attentive to all our needs. We brought our dog and she let us know about all the dog friendly beaches and restaurants in the area. We had a very enjoyable stay.

    We loved our stay at Sweet Pea cottage and so did our 11-pound Bolonka. Easy drive to downtown Cape May, quiet neighborhood, gorgeous garden. Lisa, our host, who lives in attached house, could not have been more welcoming. Everything in cottage was spotless and comfortable. Highly recommend!

    We had a lovely stay at this cottage in a garden by the sea surrounded by beautiful artwork and late fall flowers. We came to go birding during the fall migration and were close to all the right spots. Being just two blocks from the beach was wonderful for long dog walks with my pup. Much appreciation to our gracious and attentive host! We hope to be back often.
