We really enjoyed our stay, the cottage was great. Perfectly located with everything we needed.
5.0
One of our beautiful weeks in Cape May. The cottage was so charming and comfortable. Loved the updated appliances and TVs. Really felt like home. The location was perfect, just a short walk to one of the less crowded beautiful beaches. We did have a chance to meet the owner when we checked in, and he was very helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay again.
5.0
The 2 bedroom (dog-friendly) cottage was perfect. The spiral staircase, second-floor sun room, and the roof top seating (on the "main building", gave us feel the seaside experience we were looking for. Ron was great to deal with and supplied us with everything we needed to feel at home.

This is our second time here. The location is right across from the beach and very quiet. Great cottage. The hosts are responsive. Perfect!

Quaint property. Quiet. Needs a bit of up keep and bit of cleaning. Bedrooms are on the first floor along with a full bath and laundry. The mattress in the master bedroom was a bit too firm for our liking so we bought a foam topper to use for our stay. There were a few cobwebs in the rooms and dirt build up in the ceiling vents. The sofa was stained and not comfortable to us. Over all it was quaint but needs some up keep.

So lovely to stay here! It was a bonus to get to meet Bernadette and her husband, Ron. We loved the location, the home, and the love and thoughtfulness that they have put into the home. It is charming, it is creative, it is sooooo relaxing and just wonderful as are Bernadette and Ron. We very much look forward to coming back! Thank you for a wonderful experience and sharing your home with us! Mary McIntosh

Our family wanted to stay in a quite area of Cape May that was close to the beach. The cottage checked both boxes, and in fact we were much closer to the beach than we thought. Great view of the ocean from the screen porch. The Jitney ran past the house, so getting around Cape May was easy and we didn’t have to drive much.
We brought our dog with us and he was fine, however the spiral staircase was tough for the dog. There is a set of stairs outside that leads to the porch, so that was how we got the dog up and down the stairs.
Our family was overall very happy to stay there and we enjoyed ourselves for every second we had there.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay once again. The house was comfortable and our hosts gracious as ever. Even during the July 4th week this house is a refuge. Looking forward to next summer!

Great place with plenty of room for our family, including our dog. Easy access to the beach and within walking distance of a few great restaurants. Highly recommend this place and wonderful communication with Ron and Bernadette.

The location of this home is perfect. Warm and inviting spaces. So nice to be able to bring our dogs. Cape May is so unique and so is this home. I didn't realize that we had to bring linens, but Bernadette brought a brand new sheet set over when I inquired about it.

My family and I had a wonderful stay in Bernadette and Rons little cottage by the ocean. It was incredibly spacious, clean and had all of the amenities could ask for including a BEAUTIFUL view. We will definitely stay again and would recommend it to others!

We usually stay in a hotel for our annual week in Cape May but this year stayed at this wonderful property. I can't say enough positive things about the charm of house itself, the superb location so near one of the quiet beaches, and the graciousness of our hosts. I am so glad to have made this choice and will do so again. I can recommend it wholeheartedly.
2.5
Comfortable rooms and well equipped kitchen and a bathroom on each floor. Second floor has a spacious enclosed porch with ocean view off of the living room. Lovely helpful host and hostess. There is a narrow circular staircase connecting the 2 floors but would definitely stay here again!

The cottage is very cozy and very well maintained. The hosts are lovely ! Enjoyed being able to walk out dog off season on cape Mays beach. Perfect spot for a visit anytime of year!

The cottage is a lovely place, a wonderful combination of modern function with charm. The location is peaceful, and the cottage is furnished with many elements that are interesting to look at or have guests' comfort in mind. I celebrated a milestone birthday there with old friends I hadn't seen since before the pandemic. Our favorite thing to do was sit out on the second floor porch and listen to the sound of the ocean. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for peace, quiet, comfort, and charm! I hope to be a regular guest!

Bernadette and her home were SO lovely! The screened in porch at night with the sounds of the ocean cannot be beat. We hope to come back again!

We had a wonderful time staying on Cape May at the cottage! This home was the perfect size for us for the week (two adults and one toddler, who had a room to herself). We loved being right across from the beach, with the exceptional views of the water. And Ronnie and Bernadette were extremely accommodating and helpful during the stay. We would highly recommend to anyone looking to getaway to Cape May and have the luxury of a home (vs hotel) experience while at the beach!

My wife and I stayed here for our anniversary getaway. Quiet, peaceful and beautiful are words we said all weekend. Amazing views and great hosts.
2.5
We spent a great week in Cape May in this property. We had more than our fair share of rain, but the amenities of Colvmns by the Sea Cottage helped offset the lack of sun :-). The area is very quite, but also walking distance to the center of Cape May. And, it's a minute or less by foot to a beautiful beach. Our dog loved his first beach experience -- dogs allowed any time of day from October 1 thru early spring, I think. And the 360 degree view from the rooftop of the adjoining property was well worth the climb. We will be back!
2.5
We enjoyed each moment of our “First time in Cape May week,” especially listening to the 24/7 relaxing sound of the ocean along with a perfect view from the porch while we ate dinner, to remote working, online college and having special cuddle time with our spoiled puppy!Thank you Bernadette and Ray for a wonderful first experience.Looking forward to September 2021!Fondly,Karen,Joe, Allison, Caitlin, Gillian & Chase!!!
