The area of Cape May was named after Capt. Cornelius May who explored the area and established the area as part of the Dutch colony of New Netherland, which later became New York after the English took it from the Dutch Republic. Cape May would later become part of New Jersey, and the town of West Cape May would be created from it. Due to this, the town of West Cape May is full of history and heritage, which can be seen in its classic lighthouse, 19th-century homes, and many other old buildings. Also, West Cape May is home to many vineyards which produce tasty grapes, which can be eaten straight from the vine, or processed into fine wine. Thus, West Cape May is indeed a beautiful place, and it follows that such a place should have awesome vacation rentals.
