Brainard
Beach Cottage
Adorable beachfront cozy cottage!!

Location, Location, Location. This beautiful beach cottage is located perfectly next to the beach in a quiet neighborhood. The host was very responsive to our questions and needs. She went out of her way to make sure our first trip to Cape May was successful and pleasant. The cottage was well furnished. We will be coming back for a future stay.

The host went above and beyond to help us use the appliances and brought a missing kitchen essential item over to us ASAP. The cottage was toasty warm in January during freezing cold temperatures and high winds.

Cold winter days but stayed cozy at this place for a quick birdwatching trip. I loved that the host had instructions and notes available to use. My best friend and I enjoyed their choice in decor and felt the place was overall clean for what we needed. Host was very responsive. The Vrbo instructions had said linens and towels were not provided but they actually were, Host was very apologetic and said would fix that for future guests. Generally, very nice to message with. Distance to Lake Lily and the lighthouse state park was wonderful.

incredibly cute cottage as close as possible to the beach. Owner was wonderfully helpful. We'll be back!

It's an awesome place for proximity to the beach and just simplicity done very well. The place was clean and provided bed linens, as well as beach chairs. It's a 5 minute drive to the heart of downtown Cape May. Very bike friendly area. I rode my bike to the Cape May Ferry (7 miles) and took the ferry to Lewes Delaware went riding the bike trails in Henlopen Park and beyond, awesome!! FYI - a round trip ferry ride with a bicycle and AAA card, 14.00. I love the beach in the early autumn, less people, good weather. Brained Beach Cottage is the place to be!!

Absolutely adorable cottage. I plan on making it a yearly stay . Perfect location.

The cottage was truly Cape May. It was so charming, and actually steps to the beach. Communication with the owner was 10!I absolutely recommend.

You are 30 seconds away from the beach, you hear the surf all night, the neighborhood is adorable, the cottage is adorable. It's not a luxury resort but it has everything you need and the owners are super friendly and responsive.

This is our second time staying at the Brainard Cottage and it is hands down our favorite house to rent in cape may. It is so cozy in the cool weather and breezy when it warms up. The location near the beach, park, shops, and sunsets is ideal. The house is clean and updated, well decorated and beach themed. Cathy the host is so gracious, easy to get in touch with, and always ready to give a helpful recommendation. Can’t wait to visit again soon!

My parents and i used to go to cape may point every summer, but its been over 20 years since weve been back. This wonderful little cottage gave us the full point expeirence, and the entrance to the beach being so close was wonderful. I drank my tea on the beqch every morning and we watched the sunset every night, without having to make any extra plans. Perfect stay! 10/10

Quiet neighborhood, great beach access, divine sunsets. Cute cottage with comfy beds. We were outside all day each day so had no reason to watch tv. Beach chairs and cruiser bikes available. Could use a couple soft chairs in the house but absolutely loved our stay.

This is a perfect getaway spot. Ideal for a couple alone or perhaps with one child. Owner was friendly and easily accessible. The cottage itself was warm and inviting. Exactly what I hoped it would be. A difficult place to leave. I look forward to a future visit. Thank you, Cathy.

This beautifully appointed cottage is literally steps from Sunset Beach. Every convenience is provided, including bikes (with locks and helmets), a grill, and a fire pit. The beds were the most comfortable of any beach rental I've stayed in. It felt like home. Property owners are wonderful to work with. The Cape May Point area is great for long walks, too. Highly recommend!
