We would love to try one of the beautiful cottages.
Pros:

Everything is updated. The property and pool is beautiful.

Cons:

We had a bit of a problem with the room’s door sticking.
Also our GPS sent us past the property several times because of the entrance being on the crossroad of two main highways.

Great location for a couple nights.
Pros:

Location is about 1 mile from ferry terminal. We stayed in the motel, but the cottages looked nice.The pool was very nice. Property seems to be well maintained or has been recently renovated.

Cons:

Old loud window A/C unit. But it did keep the unit cool. Lady taking smoke breaks at bottom of stairs right below our unit 203.

Not long enough
Pros:

Great location for the party we were attending in North Cape May. I wish we had stayed longer to enjoy the pool area. Very clean room and property.

Cons:

My only complaint is the lack of outlets in the room but it’s understandable for the time that the building was built. We just unplugged the microwave and click to charge our devices
