The Majestic Star – 705 Columbia Ave

10% of proceeds will go to grade school educational programs for communities impacted by Covid-19 in Rwanda.

Located in the heart of Cape May’s historical district three blocks from town and two blocks from one of the most pristine beaches on the Northeast coast, the Majestic Star is an expansive home perfectly positioned to experience one of the most unique towns in America. The short walk along picturesque Columbia Avenue to the downtown restaurant scene, boutique shops, live music venues and more will take you by some of the best preserved Gothic Revival Victorian architecture in the country built with features modeled after the great churches of Europe. Our home was built in 1870 and past owners include one of the original publishing families in the country, yet the interior has a decidedly modern beach feel. From either the open air porch or glass screened in area watch the horse-drawn carriage tours walk past or take a look across the way at the beautiful Chalfonte Hotel as they host weddings.

Please note our property has just one reserved parking spot, we have unmetered spaces along our street Columbia but during peak days (Fri/Sat May-Sep) additional spaces could be 1-3 blocks away. The good news is with our location close to town and the beach you won’t need your car much! Early check in for weekend stays Sep-May is generally available to help with parking as well.

We provide all bed and bath linens, something we are continually surprised is not standard in Cape May. For the interior, one of our bedrooms is part of a rear attached cottage which is a perfect place for two guests to have a bit more privacy and also their own kitchen. Other interior highlights include a sun room located off our first floor bedroom with its own daybed and reading chair, a large dining room, and a well-stocked board game collection of our favorites. Outside our outdoor grill and fire pit are perfect for summer night cookouts. We look forward to hosting you!
