The Henry Sawyer Inn was perfect for our visit to Cape May. The inn is located in the heart of the historic district and within convenient walking distance to everything. It also has off-street parking. We were a group of three related women and we shared a suite on the second floor, which was comfortable and spacious. There are 3... More

Just recently my Mom, Sister and I spent a beautiful Christmas Weekend in Cape May. The Henry Sawyer was our choice for an Inn. As the title says, this Inn was a warm hug and just what the doctor ordered for our weekend --- very clean accomodations, Barbara, the Innkeeper, who iwas just so warm, helpful and knowledgeable about Cape...

We are regulars at the Henry Sawyer Inn and, each visit, Barbara makes us feel like royalty. The rooms are comfortable. The breakfasts and afternoon snacks are absolutely delicious. The extras are a bonus. Most important --- we never have to think. All we do is relax and enjoy! When we want to try something different, Barbara helps us do... More

I have stayed twice at this B & B. The staff is so friendly and accommodating! I was helped with restaurant and sightseeing suggestions, which turned out to be great. Breakfast is delicious with different breads, muffins and cakes each day as well as eggs, french toast and pancakes. The beds were comfortable and the rooms both times were immaculate.... More

This is a very nice, cozy place. The breakfast was exceptional. It was a short distance to the beach and the main street - Washington str. My kids (16 and 11 yo) loved it. Barbara, the owner, is very accommodating. She made us feel as we're at home. You can do check out and go to the beach, then come... More

Just had a wonderful stay. It was a last minute decision to stay overnight in Cape May. The staff went out of thier way to make our visit enjoyable. They even made sure that they accommadated our GF diet. Since they had no advance notice that was very surprising and appreciated.

My husband and I did a murder mystery weekend at the Inn. It was a lot of fun. If you like play acting for a few days then this is right up your alley. The breakfast was wonderful. The place is very pretty (very victorian (which is what should be expected) and the owner, Barbara, is a wonderful woman. She... More

The Henry Sawyer Inn is a lovely small bed and breakfast in the historic district of Cape May, NJ. We have been here many times and have always had a great time. The owner, Barbara, is very cordial and accomodating, especially to our kosher food needs. We love staying in the first floor room just off the dining room (we... More

I would highly recommend The Henry Sawyer Inn. We went down for a quick weekend away with our 2 teenage children. It was a very relaxing weekend and a lovely stay. The home is charming and very well cared for. We stayed in the suite and the kids loved it because they each had their own beds which never happens... More

My daughter and I have been staying at the Henry Sawyer Inn since 2001. We were new to Cape May, and once we found this treasure, we didn't want to stay anywhere else. We may have stayed at a few other places in town when the Henry Sawyer couldn't accomodate us, but it's always our first choice. The Inn is... More
