General Information

The John Benezet cottage, built in 1872 is known for its grace and architectural beauty. The sturdy carpenter Gothic windows are accented by the graceful charm of decorative gingerbread. The cottage became the summer retreat of Linda Lee Porter, whose name is prominently displayed on the entrance of this wonderful structure. Today, The Linda Lee, a year round bed and breakfast, combines the elegance of the past with the amenities of the present. Whether it is the beautiful guest rooms and cozy parlor, decorated with period antiques, or the breeze-caressed veranda, The Linda Lee offers the finest accomodations in Victorian Cape May.
