Hotel at a Glance: The Beach Shack
To reach Cape May’s beaches from The Beach Shack, simply walk across the street. To while away the day on the soft sands, reserve one of the hotel’s cabanas for a half or full day. Or consider setting aside some time to enjoy the onsite amenities. Go for a swim in the outdoor pool, sunbathe on the second-floor pool deck, and pull up a chair around the outdoor fire pit at the iconic Rusty Nail, a surfer beach bar known locally as “The Nail.”
- Bright colors and beach decor characterize the guest rooms, which feature flat-screen TVs and kitchenettes.
- Recent renovations have spruced up all bathrooms and carpeting.
- Feast on buckets of shrimp and clams, oysters on the half-shell, and fish tacos at The Rusty Nail. You can also order food and drinks from the Rusty Nail and have them delivered right to your beach chair.
- Play outside: Borrow a clamshell-pitching set from the hotel to play on the beach.
- Rent a bike from the Congress Hall Bike Shop to explore the seaside town. The shop carries single, tandem, and surrey bicycles.
Cape May, New Jersey: Seaside Resort Town with Victorian Architecture
Long billed as America’s oldest seaside resort, Cape May sits at New Jersey’s southernmost tip. The setting is so idyllic that Travel Channel named the town’s coastline 1 of the top 10 beaches in the country. Aside from beachcombing, popular pastimes here include fishing, whale watching, and bird watching. In fact, the New York Times called Cape May “one of North America’s hottest birding spots.” You might see bald eagles, herons, and woodcocks. In the spring, keep your eyes peeled for the latter’s intricate mating dance.
After a fire ravaged most of Cape May in 1878, residents rebuilt in the contemporary style of the time, and dozens of their stately Victorian homes remain standing today. Consequently, the Cape May Historic District has earned the distinction of being a National Historic Landmark. Horses and carriages tour the colorful, cottage-lined streets, which have been deemed off-limits to chain stores in order to preserve the classic small-town atmosphere. Along Delaware Bay stands the 1859 Cape May Lighthouse. Those who climb the tower’s 199 stairs are rewarded at the top with an unbeatable view of the Atlantic Ocean.
