    Wonderful little house! Very convenient location, beautiful overlook of the park. Loaded with every thing you might need if staying in a house. Bonus: excellent water pressure!

    The home is well equipped, well organized and in a great location. It has everything you need for a stay of any length of time. Labels help find things in the kitchen, water pressure is good and heat and a/c worked great. The host is responsive and considerate. I would go back!

    What a delightfully lovely little home! We adored our stay. We cooked almost every night because the kitchen had everything you need! Fantastic porch hangs and the walk to the beach was easy!!

    My partner and I stayed for two weeks during the heat wave that gripped the East Coast this July. While the two small A/C units struggled to keep the little house cool, they were able to do it. We had some truly wonderful days at the beach (a 4 minute walk), and the water was fantastically refreshing. We saw dolphins everyday and my husband caught over 200 fish! (Catch and release except for a few.) You can hear the ocean from the porch, which has an entertaining view of the circle park with dogs, runners, families posing for pictures, etc. The kitchen was very well equipped, and we made some truly memorable meals. We recommend the Lobster House to buy fresh seafood and clam chowder. Restaurants: The Organic Eatery (wonderful!) and Louisa's (a classic!) The house is small and from another era... but if you know what you're getting, it's great. The only negative thing was that the humidity made line-drying our towels and bathing suits difficult. However, one trip to the laundromat was not too bad.

    Air conditioning was none existent. Window units didn’t cool down the living room. Beds were disgraceful in terms of comfort. Screened porch and outside shower were spectacular I slept every night on the porch

    Overall we enjoyed our stay at the cottage. We are grateful for the screened-in porches and easy access to the beach, especially on hotter days. The kitchen might be small but it is well equipped and has everything needed to actually cook. Cape May Point is the perfect place to experience a quieter side of the Jersey Shore.

    My cousin and I rented the Birders Cottage for a week, and really enjoyed the little house, which was adjacent to Pavilion Circle, a nice birding spot in itself. During the week, my niece and a NJ friend joined us. Tho the cottage was small, it was charming and well stocked with essentials, and such unique, and well designed storage areas. The mattress in the blue room was a little hard and bumpy, but I got used to it, and we all had a wonderful time.

    We had a lovely week. The cottage was cozy and vintage. Amenities were as per the listing. A couple of beach access paths were a very short walk. We brought our own linens and towels. We also brought our own bicycles and enjoyed riding in the point and West Cape May. We loved the porches and felt they made all the difference in this rental.
