Great place to just get away and relax.

Home was a lovely reminder of beach days from the past when visiting the area was time just to kick back. Relaxing atmosphere and cozy place to spend time either at the bay near the home or take a short drive to Cape May. Great fenced yard for our pup. Host responded quickly to questions or concerns and check in was a breeze.

Cape May Stay

Loved our stay at this beautiful home in North Cape May. Check in process was a breeze and the property manager is very quick to respond. Amazing views from the deck and huge fenced in back yard! Just steps away from the beach. Only about a 10 minute drive to down town. Great location and great home!

Perfect place to make more memories with family and friends.

This Charming home brought back memories of my childhood summer vacations. The sunsets were spectacular, especially from the upper deck. Across the street from the beach, lucky us. The location was perfect for the view and distance between us and the family. Also, restaurants and shopping. Full of amenities and very clean. Definitely recommended.

Outstanding proximity to beach, lovely house

Plenty of room for a family getaway. Literally half a block to a terrific beach, soft sand quiet waves, not overcrowded. We felt so lucky. House had some nice modern amenities like upgraded primary suite, roof top deck with great views, and a fenced yard but still felt charming and beachy. Very short drive to downtown Cape May and restaurants, 5 min or less to grocery.

Fantastic location with beautiful sunsets

The beach house was a great place to enjoy our vacation. The fenced yard was a major plus for our dog. She had a blast running and playing in the yard. The house was extremely clean. The upstairs deck was a wonderful space to enjoy the views of the bay. Neighbors very friendly. We had a wonderful week! Thank you.

Beautiful sunsets

My husband and I vacation in Cape May with our dog at least once a year. We love the fewer crowds and beautiful sunsets on the bayside. Quick walk to Harpoon’s for comfortable atmosphere, good food and drinks. The house has everything you need and it was clean. Kitchen table is a bit large so we just shifted it away from the refrigerator to make more room. The patio furniture above the primary bedroom rattled around and kept us up one night. We stacked the chairs and that seemed to help. We love the fenced in yard for our pup. The deck was a great place to sit and watch the sunset. We would definitely rent the house again.

This is a large house with good bedroom space and very close to the Dekaware Bay beaches. I think that it's a good property for a summer vacation with a large family. The house itself is decent. No odors. It could use some updating. The kitchen dining space is awkward. To use the whole table you have to move the seating bench and table into the walk space.

Amazing property

The house is located one house off the beach/bay. The boardwalk in the morning was perfect to walk our lab and stroll the baby. The beach is clean and the dolphin sightings were great! The house was very clean and the deck was awesome for sunset views. I would recommend highly for a family and friends. Plenty of room. Couldn’t ask for more. Already thinking of when we can return.

Exceeded our expectations!

We decided 2 weeks prior to get out of town and rent somewhere different. We are so happy we stumbled up One on the Bay in North Cape May! My sister/her husband joined our family of 4. It was a perfect week-couldn't have asked from anything more. The house is clean, well stocked with essentials and roomy. Our kids took the upstairs bedrooms/bathroom and each couple got a bedroom/bathroom down. We were able to have our own areas without being on top of each other. Outside was as roomy as inside. The property has plenty of parking and room to play the yard games we brought and store our kayaks. The location was perfect...steps from the beach. Easy to get back and forth for sun and food breaks during the day. Sunsets were incredible and can be viewed from the property when we didn't walk down to the beach. We lucked out by having a perfect view of the Lower Township Fireworks display from the upper deck! Tracy was easy and friendly to work with. She responded quickly to any questions we had before and during our stay. We would recommend renting this house or from them without hesitation! Thank you for an incredible week!

Wonderful Location

My family and I rented this home for a long weekend in May to celebrate our father’s birthday. The home exceeded our expectations. Our group of 6 fit comfortably and with each couple having plenty of privacy. The home is one house from the North Cape bay beach. The sunsets from the beach and even from the rooftop patio were beautiful! My dog absolutely loved the fenced in yard, chasing the family of bunnies and visiting the beach daily (it is dog friendly in the off season). The garage access extended to use of the BBQ and lounge chairs that we were lucky enough to need with the beautiful weather we had during our stay. The home is only about 10-15 minutes from Cape May sites. It was a quick drive to the nearby winery and brewery and only a two block walk to nearby Harpoon Harrys for casual dining (indoor/outdoor) on the bay front. The outdoor shower came in handy and the kitchen included essentials needed to prepare a family dinner. We really enjoyed our stay and would be thrilled to visit again in the future. Our host was super responsive to any questions we had before and during our stay.

Breathtaking sunsets!

You cannot beat this location. Just across the street from the beach and the neighborhood is awesome for dog walks and exercise. The big fenced in yard was excellent for our golden retriever and the house itself has everything you need. You feel relaxed and at home the second you arrive. I would absolutely recommend this property!!

Great views, location and property!

House was great! Few steps to the beach and a block from Harpoon’s for Happy Hour! I rated accuracy of listing as a 4 only because it had much more than I expected. The upstairs bedroom could act as a primary bedroom with queen bed. Has perfect views and a 1/2 bath. My daughter and her friend used the side twin bedroom as a dressing room. They loved having access to the deck from their room. Bedroom had a TV and separate AC unit. The rest of house has central air The bedroom with two double beds was perfect for my son and his friend. Also equipped with a TV. A full bath bath is next door. The living room was a nice size to accommodate about 5 grown kids//adults comfortably The sitting room between the living room and primary bedroom was perfect to use as an office. Also had a TV. The WiFi was very good for all our connections. The primary bedroom was large and a full bathroom and huge closet Kitchen was a bit tight when all gathered in same room and having access to refrigerator. But, minor. If you plan on doing a lot of slicing /dicing for food prep, I recommend bringing your own chef knives. I always bring mine. Yard was a great size for games/ play. Garage was very convenient to store bikes and beach gear too Overall- Highly recommend and would stay again.

Great experience

This property has a fantastic view and just a short ride to the Cape May Beach. My husband and I went with our 2 adult children and 2 dogs. The house was clean, well supplied and had plenty of room for us and more. The dogs loved swimming in the bay and enjoyed the fenced yard. The sunset views were spectacular! Tracy was very responsive throughout and even found a cross I left there and mailed it back. We plan to stay there again next year and know you and your family will enjoy this location.

Wonderful views

Lots of room to park. Great views from many locations. Two showers, four toilets. No bath tub. Could have used some directions for how to use the televisions. Two of the beds were totally stripped when we arrived. It would have been more welcoming if there were spreads covering the mattresses. Some of the bedding upstairs was just tossed in a pile in the corner, and had dog hair all over it. However; we had a great time and it met all of our needs.

Lovely beach view, lovely home

We enjoyed coffee and snacks on the rooftop deck at sunset; soccer, sand toys, shell hunting, and jetty rock climbing on the small beach right across the street; and tranquil morning views of the ocean from the upstairs bedroom. The property has bikes, lots of flat screen TVs, and a big yard which is great for nearby play. We would definitely rent this place again.
