Spacious two bedroom one and a half bath home with a third bonus room that offers an extra sleeping area plus a cozy chair to relax and read a good book. Smart TVs in both bedrooms plus Smart/Cable TV in living room. Kitchen is equipped with all your basic needs/equipment for preparing a meal (plates, glasses, flatware, pots, pans, blender, coffee maker, and more). And if you choose not to cook, there are a least 7 restaurants / bars within walking distance as well as a 24 HOUR WAWA.
>We supply basic paper products that you will need (toilet tissue and paper towels) and basic cleaning supplies to help maintain and keep The Waters Edge the same clean condition as when you arrived. We supply sheets for all beds as well as bath towels and wash cloths. We encourage you to bring your own beach towels. There will also be 4 beach chairs with CAPE MAY BEACH TAGS attached. These are seasonal tags and are needed for Cape May Beach Access. These chairs are stored on the deck for your use. PLEASE DO NOT LOSE THEM. Another amenity provided is FOUR bicycles that will be on premise with bike locks attached.

Yacht Avenue is a very popular street for vacationers so parking can sometimes be tight. As a small community we all work together to help each other and we please ask our guests to do the same during the duration of your stay. If you have a Compact-Midsize vehicle, you can park directly in front of the property / home. Additional parking can be found directly adjacent to the Wawa 1 block away if traveling with multiple vehicles. (PLEASE REFRAIN FROM PARKING IN FRONT OF OTHER PROPERTIES ON YACHT AVE AS THERE IS LIMITED PARING FOR ALL)

As Cape May is a top ten vacation destination, parking is difficult throughout the island, not just on Yacht Ave. We suggest using bicycles when possible to visit the island restaurants and shops as it will give you an additional perspective of our quaint little town.

Lastly, please respect our neighbors in regards to noise, loud music, etc. The Water's Edge is the perfect place to relax and relish in the calm of Cape May Harbor.

    The Boat House is our favorite spot to stay in Cape May! The house is comfortable and in a great location.

    We had the most wonderful stay at this beach house! The views off the deck are amazing and the atmosphere was peaceful. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed…from towels to dish soap. The bedrooms were incredibly comfy. The host was extremely welcoming and made sure everything was perfect for our stay. We will be back!

    We loved waking up and having coffee on the back deck looking at the water. The boat house was truly a unique experience and my daughter has already asked when we can go back.

    Coming from North of Virginia, I knew about Cape May but it never been. Years of going to Delaware beaches….what a loss for us. Cape May is Victorian, stylish and just a beautiful place.Better than Bethany or Rehobeth! Our host was perfect.The home was thoughtfully decorated, walkable to everything including restaurants, the beach, shopping, a wonderful way to spend a weekend. It surpassed our expectations! We want to stay again:)

    My sister, kids, and I decided to try something new this beach trip. Staying on the harbor was the best decision. We spent our mornings drinking coffee watching the boats and water and our evenings ordering in to eat on the deck. We had a spectacular sunset as well. You are right by the dolphin watching boat and right by poverty beach. We did sunset beach and poverty beach this trip and loved both, but favor poverty beach. You won’t regret booking your stay here! Close to everything.

    the property was unique being a house boat. it may look a little dated from the outside but everything was new and comfortable on the inside. Little details make the difference. communication was excellent both prior to and after checking in. easy check in check out. location, location, location. the rear deck with the view of the water, ocean going sailboats that were docking across the water made for a relaxing enjoyable stay. wonderful.

    This time of year is the best time to see all the big yachts coming into the marina for a night on their way south. Spectacular to sit and watch with a glass of wine and some cheese and crackers! The house itself is fully stocked. No need to bring any supplies. Very clean. This was our second time here and we hope to return again next year.

    It was a beautiful property, and so relaxing. The perfect place to celebrate our coast guard graduate. There were several issues outside of the host's control, but Brad was very helpful, kind, and rapid to respond. We would stay there again anytime!

    Very well appointed - everything was well thought out. Nice appliances and furniture. We had a wonderful relaxing stay at an adorable boat house with exciting boat action to watch. The owners cared about what you might need during your stay which really showed.

    Excellent location with a great view of the marina. We enjoyed watching the huge yachts come and go. The place was very clean and stocked. We didn’t need anything. Highly recommended.

    Upon our arrival in Cape May, we checked into this lovely home and found everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The house was be nicely decorated and well stocked with paper goods, kitchen supplies, and linens. The owner welcomed us with 2 bottles of local wine, and a gift card to a local restaurant! The house was comfortable and had plenty of space to relax and enjoy, but the back deck overlooking the water was the highlight of our stay. We loved having coffee, meals, and drinks overlooking the marina. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property.

    We had an absolute blast staying at the Historic Boat House. We chose to get takeout for our dinners during our short stay and eat on the deck. Just an awesome, clean, and comfortable home to stay in.

    This is a great house, with a wonderful view of the Marina. It was cool watching the yachts prepare for their voyages. In walking distance of great restaurants and a WaWa. Easy bike ride to the beach. Great stay!
