A Delightful Family Retreat Steps To Delaware Bay Beaches, Pet Friendly

Step into the Bay Block Retreat, where your vacation begins with a warm welcome—a personalized note from the owner and a complimentary bottle of wine to set the tone for your stay. The moment you arrive, you’ll feel right at home in this clean and inviting space designed for comfort and connection.

Mornings are best spent sipping coffee on the patio while your pup and kids enjoy the fenced backyard. After breakfast, grab your paddleboard or kayak and head down to the nearby bay beach for fun on the water. With calm waves and scenic views, it’s the perfect spot to relax, explore, and snap a few unforgettable photos.

As the afternoon sun sets, venture out to one of the area’s charming wineries or craft breweries for tastings and good conversation. Whether you enjoy dinner at a local restaurant or fire up the Weber grill back at home, evenings here are made for laughter, stories, and quality time with the people you love.

Wrap up your day with a movie night on the 60” smart TV or stream your favorite playlist using the high-speed Wi-Fi. And when it’s time to rest, the cozy bedrooms and outdoor shower offer a refreshing retreat to prepare for another day of adventure.

*Renters must provide their own bed linens, comforters, pillows, and towels.

We were very pleased with how well-appointed and clean the home was. The fenced in yard was great for our pup and the proximity to the bay and other area attractions can't be beat. We walked to the bay every day and enjoyed riding our bikes around the area. We would recommend this property to others looking for a pet friendly vacation home.

My family stayed here for the weekend and had a blast! The house was very well kept and we loved that we can walk right down to the beach! We took our bikes everywhere and really enjoyed our stay. Debbie was quick to answer any questions we had and we would definitely come again!

We had a wonderful time on our Cape May escape. This home was immaculately clean, spacious and had a well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed touring local wineries and relaxing on the beach. Our dogs loved swimming in the bay. The sunsets over the bay were fabulous. We can't wait to return.

10/10

This beach house was a perfect getaway for me, my wife and our two pups. The large fenced in backyard was great and it was just a very short walk away from the bay. We were able to use the bikes that they had there to ride to some really nice wineries and just relax and enjoy the beautiful sunsets. The owners are fantastic and very responsive. We will definitely be booking this home again!

The home is clean and the kitchen was well-equipped. The owner responded to messages in a timely manner. The coastal storm Ophelia hindered some of our outdoor activities. The sunsets that we did see were not disappointing and very easy to get to! We visit Cape May every year at this time and enjoy everything it offers. The bay area (Townbank) has become our go to place.

There was nothing we did not fall in love with at this house. The house was very cute and well set up for renters. The walk to the beach was great and the ocean there was also great. Thanks for the wine, we took that to a BYOB restaurant in cape may one evening. I would recommend to anyone who is considering, you will not regret it.

We stayed 3Nights to watch the local triathelon. It's one block from the beach. The house is beautiful! It's very comfortable, with plenty of room. Backyard is a great place to eat lunch or dinner on the table outside. Owners are very gracious. They left a note and a bottle of wine for us. It put us in just the right attitude to have a great vacation! I think, if you want to go to Cape May, do nothing to take to rent this house!

Very clean well equipped house a block away from the beach, 100% as described. Quiet residential neighborhood yet 15 min away from crowded downtown cape may or wildwood. We enjoyed the sunset and long walks on the Delaware Bay beach. Who knew May was the season for horseshoe crab spawning? Fascinating to meet those creatures right on the beach. The yard was quiet and a nice place to have a break between local visits downtown, to wineries, minigolf, salt marsh safari etc. We had a great stay! First family vacation in more than a year due to the pandemic and our teens were thrilled.

We spent a nice week in this well-kept, clean home. Location was great for us and it showed us a section of Cape May we had not been exposed to before. With six adults, we had ample room upstairs, house temp remained cool, and there was plenty of hot water throughout our stay. Owner was very responsive - I only had one question regarding garbage. My one suggestion might be to add a couple more chairs to the outside patio area so that everyone can sit at once (only five chairs there now). Thank you for sharing your home with us! I recommend this property without hesitation.

Love this Home, left feeling like a criminal for leaving minor infractions such as a “poorly cleaned grill” and water balloon pieces in the grass. Arrived to a dirty house with poorly cleaned floors, stained carpet, dirty glass doors and dog bowl filled with dirty water that my daughter put her hands in. I was told that “I should have watched my child”? Maybe you should fix your dining room chair that cut my family members leg because it was missing a rail? Don’t question my family and our parenting when we paid you $4000 in two years lady. We even vacuumed and cleaned the house back to where it should have been left when we arrived!!! Owner was even notified of issues upon checkout which were ignored. Sad way to end a great week! 😞

We stayed at the property August 12-19. The house itself was very family and pet friendly. We loved that it was on a block from the bay beach. The first night we went to the beach to watch the sunset and it was lovely. Our Labrador loved the fenced in yard! There were, however, a few areas of confusion. We were aware that we needed to bring our own sheets and towels. However, we didn’t realize that we needed to bring our own pillows and blankets as well. We spent the first hour after check in buying six pillows at a local department store. When I rechecked the listing, the owners description did state that pillows and blankets were not included. However, the VRBO listing said that linens and towels were not included, but did not mention blankets and pillows were not included. Either way, it is a hassle to pack all of these things for three bedrooms and six adults! Considering check-in is not until 4 PM (which seems late and left a little time in the house before our first day was over ) and check out is at 10 AM that leaves six hours during which of it would’ve been entirely possible to provide these things, considering there’s a washer and dryer on premises. Also, we thought that cable TV was provided. In actuality, it was a smart TV with streaming services that we had to use our own accounts if we wanted to access movies or television. Overall though-we had a wonderful vacation in a beautiful location and would recommend this rental.👍

Our family had a great stay in Cape May. We enjoyed the beach most days (even spotted some dolphins). The house was spacious and clean with all you ask for in the kitchen. We brought our dog who liked the yard (be aware that small dogs could escape from under the fence in a few spots). Overall a fun week in a comfortable home!

We love staying in North Cape May. This house met all of our needs, allowing our dogs to travel with us. Check-in is a breeze. Super close to the bay on a very quiet street. We’ll miss seeing the sunsets every evening!

We had a wonderful vacation with our 2 young kids at Debbie’s house. The location was great, the house was a perfect size for our family, and the ability to bring our two dogs was so convenient. The only caveat is that the backyard has a few holly trees and the leaves with the thorns made it unsafe for our dogs to use or a kids to walk barefoot. This was a small inconvenience to an overall amazing trip!
