We enjoyed our stay at Osprey Nest. Only complaint…. the bed was a little high for two 80 year-olds! We did figure things out, though, and liked the location. It was quiet and peaceful, yet minutes from the places we wanted to visit.

We have stayed here twice now...so that says something. Everything is as is represented in the listing. It is true there is not a real kitchen, but where else can you wash your dishes while showering??? The place is "cozy" and well-appointed. The price point is good relative to other Cape May properties as long as preparing meals in house is not a huge priority. Recommended for sure!

Initially, I wanted to be in Cape May as I was meeting my daughter and her family there. There was nothng left in my price range as I was late to book a place. After arriving at this rental I was happy that I was not in Cape May because it was so quiet in the suburban neighborhood. I was able to drive to my daughter's rental in about 12 min. The rental is very clean and has a very comfortable mattress. There was also a small refrigerator which was very helpful, Craig the host, communicated well. He is very personable and a nice guy. He is very responsive to any requests. I would look forward to renting here again in the future.
