“This charming Victorian-era bed and breakfast, consistently awarded as Cape May's best, places guests a block from both the beach and main shopping. I appreciate the owner-operated feel; special touches include afternoon tea and free use of beach equipment and bicycles, creating a distinct sense of place. It's a cozy, community-focused experience rooted in local culture.”
