The Coop In West Cape May

1 site · Lodging1 acre · West Cape May, NJ
Come relax in this tiny home by the shore located in our quiet West Cape May neighborhood just a quick bike ride from beautiful beaches, arts and culture, restaurants, wineries and the center of town. We provide everything you need to enjoy your visit to the Cape. This unique stay includes a lofted king bed, full kitchen and bath, washer/dryer combo, and screened-in porch. The Coop is great for couples and solo travelers who are adventurous and don’t mind climbing up a ladder to a lofted bed. Our property is on less than an acre of land (despite what the listing states, sorry! Hipcamp won't allow me to change the acreage amount to less than one!) so you will occasionally see and hear us or our neighbors. The space is a studio-style tiny home located behind the main residence with free parking in the shared driveway. During the spring, relax on the screened-in porch and enjoy listening to the frogs sing in the evening; come summer the porch is surrounded by beautiful red canna lilies- catch the hummingbirds visiting while you sip your coffee before you hit the beach; by fall the backyard is transformed as late blooming flowers bring migrating butterflies through town. All year long you are likely to see wildlife- songbirds, bald eagles and hawks, especially in the Spring and Fall as our place is located on the Atlantic Flyway. Our neighborhood is a quiet leafy residential area one mile from Cape May's beaches, walking mall, winery and the center of town. Please note that the only sleeping area is lofted - you will need to be able to comfortably climb a ladder. You will have sole use of the screened-in porch and tiny home. The backyard space outside of the screened-in porch is shared - you may occasionally see me or my partner in the garden. Help yourself to the mulberries, strawberries or blackberries that are growing in the garden if you're lucky to be here in season!

The best camping near Cape May Point State Park guide

Overview

About

Embark on an adventure at Cape May Point State Park, where the land meets the sea in a symphony of natural wonders. From birdwatching to beachcombing, this coastal haven offers a plethora of activities. Venture along scenic trails, marvel at the historic lighthouse, and immerse yourself in the vibrant wildlife habitat. While camping isn't an option, the park's diverse landscapes promise endless exploration and discovery.

When to go

The best time to visit Cape May Point State Park is during the spring and fall migrations, when the park becomes a birdwatcher's paradise. Summer offers warm beach days, while winter captivates with serene, frost-kissed landscapes. Avoid peak migration weekends if you prefer solitude, as these can draw large crowds of nature enthusiasts.

Know before you go

  • Check the park's operating hours, which are from 8am to 8pm, to plan your visit accordingly.
  • Accessibility is a priority; contact the park office for specific needs and accommodations.
  • Remember, pets are welcome on trails but must remain leashed and are not allowed on beaches from April 1st to September 15th.
  • Bring your own bags for trash as you'll need to carry out what you bring in.
  • Alcoholic beverages and smoking are prohibited throughout the park, ensuring a family-friendly environment.
