Local Tip: Buy 2017 Seasonal Beach Tags Before Prices Go Up!

Attention Beach Goers — get your seasonal tags now before the price goes up

Here's a great local tip

Everyone loves a bargain.

Currently, until the end of March, Cape May beach tags are a relative bargain at $20 each. If you wait till summer it'll cost you about that for 1 week.

Prices go up at the end of March so be sure to stop by Cape May's City Hall and purchase beach tags for your family or friends. 

See you on the beach!

The Lobster House is Perfect for a Family Meal

Fresh, locally (mostly) caught seafood

A family vacation to the seashore just isn't complete without at least one delicious meal of fresh, locally caught seafood. Our family growing up had many memorable seafood feasts - both at our house and at local restaurants - and the Lobster House Restaurant & Fish Market was a big part of that experience. That's where we'd buy our fresh seafood to make our classic lobster, shrimp and clams feasts!

Cheese Platters for the Perfect Party or Event

If you're staying in Cape May and need H'ordeorves for a family event or party, it used to be you had to rely on the local Acme which can be a nightmare experience with their limited selection, high prices and spotty service. Luckily for local residents and visitors alike, Steve and Barb White, owners of Seaside Cheese, saw a need and created a wonderful boutique cheese shop that has a deliciously diverse selection of fresh breads, gourmet crackers, Olives, Balsamic vinaigrette, spreads,  anti pasta and of course cheese, cheese, cheese! They're super friendly and really know their cheese. Be sure to ask about their seasonal specials that pair up cheeses with selections of local wines. You're sure to find something to suit your taste. 

A Longfellow Family Favorite!

Here's a Longfellow Family favorite: Order the D'Affinois which is a smooth French Double Cream soft cheese made from cows milk (similar to Brie but with a buttery rich flavor). Try it with the fresh bread or as part of a cheese platter with fresh fruit. Delicious. And if you go, be sure to tell Steve or Barb that the Longfellow Guest House sent you, and withough being too cheesey they should give you the  VICheese treatment.
