    I don't think the innkeeper would mind, so the best way to express how good a place this is to stay, would be to share my thank you email to Bonnie the innkeeper. If you are going to Cape May for any reason, there is no need to look any farther than the John Wesley Inn for someplace incredible to stay. To Bonnie: Thank you for a wonderful stay. It is really hard to say in words, what a good job you do. You have a lovely home, beautiful and comfortable rooms and your breakfasts are incredible. We may only see you once a year during Valentine’s Day weekend, but when we stay we feel like we are staying with family. It is always good to see you. Thank you for a beautiful weekend and we look forward to our next visit. Alicia and I were reflecting on our visits to Cape May the other day and about how we were so lucky to have found the “best” place to stay on our first visit many years ago. We both agreed there was no need to even consider any other options. Why mess with something that is guaranteed to be great. As long as you keep receiving guests, you can count on all of our future business.

    We enjoy staying at this beautifully restored and maintained victorian inn. It is in a great location and has wonderful amenities. Bonnie, Lance, and the staff are thoughtful to anticipate our needs and to offer suggestions for excursions. We enjoy the Mt. Vernon room in the winter with its cozy sitting room and two fireplaces. The Stockton room is perfect in the summer. We enjoy the private 2nd story porch that accompanies it. There is so much to do and see in Cape May that you will want to come back every year and stay here. This past weekend was our 4th trip since discovering the Inn 3 years ago. We can't wait to visit again.

    Great Getaway for a Local!!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay and wish we could have stayed longer. We have visited many B&B's in Cape May (our favorite resort town) and this by far, exceeded our expectations! The hospitality was more than we ever could have expected, the room was more luxurious than the website led on and the Inn Keeper, Bonnie was fantastic. Our breakfast just really made the weekend! We can not wait to return. Thank you for making a night away, one to remember!! The Shaw's

    Bonnie is an excellent host and wonderful cook. I am absolutely planning a trip back to Cape May but most importantly a trip back to the John Wesley. Each room had a fireplace, the queen sized bed was very comfortable, the private bathroom was a great touch and everything was clean and fresh. But most of all, we felt like part of the family and cannot wait to get back. Jim Karney
