We stayed at the Summer Cottage Inn the weekend of March 15-17, 2013. Cape May was putting on a Sherlock Holmes weekend and this bed and breakfast was part of the package. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to find some time to go back. I can't believe how close Summer Cottage Inn is to EVERYTHING. The outdoor... More

A wonderful experience for our anniversary. The Summer Cottage Inn is very quaint, clean and affordable. The host (Margie) was gracious and very nice. The breakfast was "buffet style" that offered plenty of hot/cold food (egg/cheese casserole, bacon, muffins, assorted fruit), hot coffee/tea, and juice (orange & cranberry). The room we stayed in was clean and comfortable. The only issue... More

Just returned from a weekend in Cape May, NJ. Can't say enough about the Summer Cottage Inn, Bed and Breakfast. From the moment we arrived, Margie, the Inn's Manager was inviting and courteous. She promptly warmly greeted us and graciously showed us to our room. The Inn is Victorian with all the expected features of a Circa 1869 home. Upon... More

This was our second stay during the Christmas season at the Summer Cottage Inn. Its location is walking distance from great restaurants, shopping, site seeing and the beach. The inn offers a cozy and romantic setting for a relaxing get-a-way from the hectic pace of the holiday season. It is spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated in the Victorian period. The... More

We chose the Summer Cottage Inn last winter after touring a number of B&B's. We were married November 5th in front of the fireplace at the B&B and it was a great experience. We rented out the B&B for both families and it made for a nice and relaxed wedding for a few close family and freinds. We had the... More

Our trip to Cape May was a getaway for relaxation on 10/14 - 10/16. The eight of us have been friends for many years and just wanted to have an adult get-together that would be inexpensive and relatively close to Long Island. The Summer Cottage Inn is a quaint Victorian built around 1867. Amazing to think about the history of... More

We (2 couples) arrived in Cape May late afternoon on a Friday in late June. Hadn't intended staying here as I hadn't made reservations and we thought all the decent places would be booked out or would require a 2 night booking over the weekend. Lucked onto this Summer Cottage Inn who had 2 vacancies at an extremely reasonable price... More

This was our first Bed & Breakfast experience, and one we certainly will repeat. The Inn was lovely with beautiful Victorian decor and an inviting front porch. We stayed in the Wicker Garden room which had a private entrance at the back of the Inn through the garden. The room was small but very clean and nice. We couldn't, unfortunately,... More
