It is about 10-15 minutes from down town Cap May so you need a car to get there. It is a collection of old buildings from all over the area that were brought to one spot to create a little village from the 18th century. Often there are people dressed in caricature demonstrating things like basket weaving or iron bending... More

We visited Cold Spring Village during the winter. Most of the buildings were closed and there was no one in sight. We'll have to try again in the cold spring.

Mini Williamsburg attraction in Cape May off Route 9. Great for a non-beach day. Crafters who are so engaging. Houses moved here by a local couple. Great restaurant on site. They donated a visit to my elderly Mom with Alzheimers and could not have been more caring.

We visited a weekday after Labor Day. According to their web site they were open for business. When we arrived the gate was open so we wandered about. All buildings were locked up and absolutely nothing was going on, save for a couple of farm animals that we stumbled on. My child was hugely disappointed since I had told her... More
