Description Description
One block from the Atlantic Ocean, soak up the sea air in this French country decorated suite on Cape May's historic Jackson St. Watch the world go by from the porch swing when you get back from a day of sunning. Or do a little shopping on the Washington Street Mall, just steps away.

Everything is within close reach. The beach is right at the end of the block. Cape May's fine restaurants and points of interest are all within easy walking distance. You can leave the car in the offstreet parking spot all week. In cooler weather, take a bubble bath in the claw foot tub (rubber duckie supplied) and cozy up by the fireplace. Soyez les bienvenus!

Lovely Vacation Beautiful Location
We just returned from our second stay at the lovely Pied-a-Terre on Jackson. The two bedroom apartment brings the best of all worlds to vacationers. For those who love the Victorian ambience, the suite is as beautifully apportioned as the neighboring Bed and Breakfast establishments. For those who love the convenience of coming and going at your leisure, eating on your own schedule and enjoying some of the comforts of home, Pied-a-Terre offers the convenience of home. In addition to a well-equipped kitchen, the apartment offers laundry facilities, outdoor showers, on-site parking, a lovely large bathroom (including a claw-footed ub) and ample porch space for relaxation in the evening or people-watching during the day. In short, it is our favorite place in Cape May and we highly recommend it.

Home Away From Home
Our family has enjoyed staying in the on Jackson for the past two summers. After many years of bouncing from one condo to another, we finally feel like we've found that "home away from home." With a location that simply can't be beat, adjacent to the heart of Cape May's shopping and restaurant district, and steps from the beach, this property has it all. The interior is lovingly decorated, comfortable and spacious. The owners and rental agent are wonderful to work with, and I couldn't recommend this property more highly

We totally enjoyed our week! The apartment is just lovely, and was perfect for my husband, daughter, and me. It is located in the middle of town, which allowed us to walk everywhere - beach, shopping, and dining. The porch is ideal for sitting back and watching the world go by. We will be back!

Great Stay!
We stayed at the Pied-a-Terre the weekend before Christmas and thoroughly enjoyed the suite! We were looking for a place to stay that offered warmth, charm, and Victorian decoration but didn't want a bed and breakfast. This suite was just perfect. It was beautifully decorated, warm and cozy. It was plenty roomy for my husband and myself and two teenagers. Because we were there for such a short stay, we didn't get a chance to use all the amenities that it offered such a the large, fully equipped kitchen (loved the bar and barstools!) and old fashioned tub. We did get to use the umbrellas (great idea to have them). The house itself is beautiful and the location is best in town! They even had on sight parking! Both the owner and the realtor were friendly and easy to work with. We will definitely be back!

Great Location Cozy Condo
You are right across the street from the Washington Street Mall, 1 block from the beach, in the Victorian section of Cape May. You could walk to the Acme Market 3 short blocks, and tons of dining options you can walk to. If you have a big car (Suburban or Explorer) plan on parking it for the week. The lot is tight, but if you rent bikes, there is lots to see. Big trucks need to back into the driveway to unload and shimmy up to the fence and fold in mirrors for parking. On-site parking is a plus in this neighborhood, though all tend to be tight. Extra cars can park for free at the elementary school about 3/4 mile away. Kitchen was wll appointed, the basics. There is both a tub and corner shower stall. Nifty antique drying rack in the bathroom to hang your bathing suits. We travelled with 3 college-age students and Mom and Dad. We would stay there again!

Great location!
What a lovely Victorian home, just what we expected from the photos. The furnishings were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. The location was perfect, everything was within walking distance. I would describe it as very quaint. My only suggestion would be to update the TV, but then again, who needs to watch television when in Cape May? The parking is a bit tricky, you have to back in, but once there we didn't move our car anyway! It was a pleasure staying there and the owner and rental agent couldn't have been nicer! We hope to visit again!

Lovely and colorful Victorian situated perfectly on beautiful Jackson Stree
My daughter and I had a very nice stay here. The rooms are spacious. The bedrooms are on opposite sides of the space so there is privacy. The kitchen is well equipped, however we did not cook or even use the coffee maker because everything is so close to this condo. Hot coffee and delicious baked goods are just around the corner. There are charming shops located in the bottom of the building -one of which offers all kinds of dips and vinegars as well as fresh baguettes. Makes for a nice light lunch---which is best eaten on the front porch, of course! I am very impressed with the location because it is PERFECT! Step outside and it's one block to the beach. A block that is one beautiful house after another. Or go left and it's steps to Washington Street and all the fun to be had there. We simply had a great time!

Fabulous Accommodation
This was an absolute ideal location and accommodation for myself and a friend visiting Cape May for a week. The owner Barbara has exquisite taste when it comes to decorating. I wish I could buy this condo! Short walk to the beach, free parking space on the side lot of the house, a few steps to Washington Mall and shopping, carriage rides, and restaurants. This is on the second floor, up a flight of steps with porch chairs and swings all 'round for enjoying your coffee and a good book. Clean, fresh, crisp with a lovely kitchen (I love to cook and eating out in Cape May can get expensive) with all you need except the groceries. Furniture is not new, but is comfortably chic. Window air conditioners. This is a multi-owner condo situation, and the outside of this beautiful old Victorian home could have used some TLC and maintenance. Nothing major - just a mental note that the outside needs to be attended to as well as the Merry Widow's Pied-a-Terre owner takes care of her condo. As for the wireless question, I can't remember ever opening up my computer while I was there so I can't remember if there is wireless or not. Now that's a great vacation. Booking, lease, deposit all easy breezy. Professional and fast!

THE BEST location
This location is on the cutest street in Cape May - Jackson Street. You are steps away from The Virginia (for live piano at night), a block from Congress Hall - the coolest lounge with live music every night, steps to the Washington Mall (3 blocks of upscale shops - not cheesy boardwalk type shops!). Oh, and 1 block from the beach! The apartment is adorable - appropriately decorated in Cape May (country French/Victorian) style. The kitchen is completely equipped with all you need from spices, to nice dishes, bakeware, etc. I have stayed in many rentals that have nothing in the kitchen. The owners were so kind - we were lucky enough to meet them!
