Cozy Bavarian Style Cottage
Our little cottage sits on a serene double lot with lots of privacy in a gated community. The main cottage has 2 bedrooms with a hall-accessed full bath and an open loft upstairs with its own bathroom, twin bed and sofa. Above the garage is a cute studio with a full bath and its own kitchenette. Bedrooms are comfortable with a king size bed in one and queen size in the other, including smart tvs. The kitchen is fully stocked along with a well-appointed coffee and tea bar. Think cozy NYC size kitchen in the main cottage but it has everything a cook needs to prepare meals along with a vast open backyard area with grill, picnic table, deck and covered pavilion for gathering. Gaze at the stars in the night sky while soaking in the hot tub* or enjoy a fire at either the gazebo fireplace or the central fire pit at night!
During the day explore the nature trails in the neighborhood or park just around the corner with water access. Put out your kayaks there or just splash around. Basketball and sand volleyball courts available, too!
(*Please note that as of 3/30 the heating unit on the hot tub is currently not functioning and we are working on a solution. Hot tub may still be used if desired.)
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker.

Excellent property!
Property perfectly suited our needs. Stayed over Christmas holiday visiting family that lived in the Cape. Comfortable beds, clean nicely decorated house, quiet street. Would definitely stay here again and would be my first choice in the Cape.

Good location but house had red wasps
The main house also smelled very musty. It was fine because we only needed it for overflow at night for people to sleep.
We had someone in our group get stung by a red wasp and my husband had to go over and spray a LOT of wasp nests around the porch and garage apartment.
We didn't even use the garage apartment because the wasps were still outside the door even after spraying.

To cheap to allow the A/C to run or have professional pest control
Everything that you need to enjoy your stay. Besides having spider webs inside the only issue was the temperature setting on the thermostat would only hold for two hours and the program setting on the A/C was 78 degrees/day and 75/night. Waking up sweating is not comfortable.

Summer weekend get away
We had a great time. Jennifer was very responsive. The place had everything we needed. Great set up. The garage apt was perfect for our group with use of the main house. We used everything such as hot tub, fire pit, chairs, gazebo, kayaks, beach access at the park. It was clean. We would definitely go back.

Cape Royal Cottage
The Cottage was perfect for our weekend. We loved the above garage apartment and the outdoor areas. Cape Royal is a hidden gem in a quiet area.
