The Heart Of Jackson Street, Steps To Shopping, Restaurants And The Beach

Once you've arrived, there's no need for a car...you're exactly where you want to be in Cape May!

Inside this sunny renovated 2,400 square foot home, you'll enjoy a clean, traditional style: granite counter tops, freshly painted walls, hardwood floors, and comfortable decor. Two floors of living space includes 4 spacious bedrooms, an open dining and living area and 2 and 1/2 baths. Step outside onto your charming porch and be transported back in time: quaint Victorian houses, horse-drawn carriages, gas lights, and merriment. This property lets you vacation in the best of both worlds while being steps away from the beautiful Cape May beaches and Washington Street Mall shopping area.

One of the best features of this space is the flexibility to relax on your own porch, and enjoy a glass of wine, or dine with family and friends at your leisure. Other vacationers pay top dollar to spend the evening on the neighboring verandas of award-winning restaurants lining historic Jackson Street. No worries if it's privacy that you crave... the back porch allows for relaxation with your guests in a lovely quiet setting.

The property is divided into 2 four bedroom units. This is Unit A. Unit A has access to the side and back porches.

Easter Holiday

We’ve been coming down to Cape May for the past 7 years for a long weekend/easter holiday. This year we wanted to try a new place and this house did not disappoint! The house itself was beautiful - inside and out; well appointed, clean and a perfect location for going to both town and the beach. We never had to drive anywhere! The dining room and window seat were our favorite room - with a race to see who could claim the window seat first when we’d return from being out. The side porch was lovely for coffee in the morning and reading in the afternoon. Our only complaint was the temperature difference between the basement bedrooms and the main floor living room/bedroom. A few extra blankets were needed downstairs. Overall, a fabulous place and we hope to be back!

Girls Weekend at Heart of Jackson

Everything was perfect! The location is minutes from the beach and only seconds from the shops and nightlife. We had so much fun in Cape May and the property lent itself to just enough space for six empty nester moms who came to celebrate my birthday and to get away. The living room and porches provided a great area for all of us hanging out together and the dining room became the make-up room with all of our make-up mirrors (hope that was ok, lol) and there is parking!!! We are already talking about coming back in December but bringing husbands this time (maybe - it was great just us) Thank you Steve for answering all of our questions - we give this property all thumbs up!!

Top-Notch Property - Amazing Location

Our family has been vacationing a week in Cape May - Ocean City, NJ for the past 5 summers and this property is hands-down the best overall experience and value we have had so far. Super clean, very spacious, and all of the comfort amenities you could think of are included. Has a private driveway & parking with a modern and stylish interior and furnishings. The host Steve was also super helpful and friendly. Lastly, the location is truly Amazing - great dining is literally steps away from your front door and the Washington Mall & Commons, Congress Hall, Cape May Convention Center, and the Boardwalk are all within a 5–7-minute walk. Cape May Lighthouse, Sunset Beach, and Cape May Point Park & wildlife area are all less than a 10-minute drive away. I give this vacation property the highest of ratings and recommendation.

Very close to shops and Beach!

We had a wonderful stay. Your home was very charming, clean and in a great location! If you enjoy shopping but not carrying items for very long. this is the home for you. Cape Mays beautiful beach is a five minute walk from this home. Washington street shops are a two minute walk. We had no idea there would be a side walk sale the weekend we stayed! Made several shopping bag drops, then shop for more goodies! Don’t miss The original Fudge Kitchen…the candies in this shop are amazing! Steve we had a great stay thank you!

Spacious and excellent location

We had a great stay. There was plenty of room for 8 adults and we really appreciated the spacious common areas and kitchen. The host was very responsive and helpful. The house is in an excellent location and we were able to walk to restaurants, the grocery store, and the beach. Would stay here again.

Family reunion

The house was perfect for our stay! Very spacious. It was within walking distances to all the sites close by as well as the beach. I would suggest bringing extra paper towels n bath tissue if you are going to be there for at least 3 or more nights and depending on number in your party. Steve, house host is very responsive to all inquires. We would definitely stay there again 😎🌴

The BEST in Cape May

The pictures on VRBO do not do this home justice. It is large, spacious, and comfortable for our family of 5 (3 kids age 10, 13, and 15). We were able to relax and enjoy each other’s company, especially on the porch. Just steps away from shopping (and our favorite ice cream Peace Pie) AND a five minute walk to the beach. We cannot wait to return again next year!

Perfect Family Vacation

The size and location of this beautiful historic home was fabulous. We enjoyed our stay, especially the large kitchen and side porch. Steve was a great host and included 6 beach tags in the rental (last year we paid $20 each for them). There were two grills, a clothesline, beach chairs, umbrellas and toys at the home. Plus the kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, flatware, glasses, mugs, cooking and baking needs. Location was perfect and couldn't be beat right in the center of Cape May! Looking forward to using the property again.

Almost perfect

Great location. We have stayed on Jackson Street before and appreciate the location. The place is spacious. I do not think the photos are recent because there is a sitting room with a TV in the lower level that is not shown in the photos. Communication with the host was good. The fact that beach chairs and tags were included was amazing. There were just a few imperfections in the home.

Perfect location

Excellent location and property. Our group consisted of 4 adults and 3 kids and we had plenty of space. Finished basement made it perfect for everyone’s own area. Loved the porch and watching everything Jackson St had to offer. Couldn’t have asked for a better location and home. Steve was excellent as well, answering any questions we had leading up to the trip. Would def stay there again.

This house easily becomes a home away from home. It is spacious for 8 people, and well maintained. The location is perfect for walks to the beach, restaurants, Washington St Mall, and other Cape May landmarks. This was the second consecutive year our family spent here. It is perfect for us.
