They are a marketplace for local business owners (which I love) and a gallery for local artists to display their art and crafts. I enjoyed seeing the eclectic mix of handmade items like wreaths, painted wine glasses, jewelry, antiques, and new items made by people in our community. They even offer crafting workshops and other interesting classes and events that I haven't attended yet, but I am looking forward to participating in those now that I am familiar with what they do. The people there were very welcoming and friendly to me, my mom, and my husband. This is a great place to visit and shop if shopping local is important to you like it is to me, and if you appreciate hand made items and arts/crafts. I'm definitely going back!

I've been visiting Cape May for years, including in the winter, and had never noticed it before. Perhaps it's fairly new? Mostly the booths loop around the pool. You can walk through each one. Unlike most holiday village setups, there's no one manning the individual booths, which seemed overly trusting to me. I'd hope they have security cameras or some other sort of check to ward off shoplifters. There's one cashier near the exit. Since I visited after Christmas, there was plenty of room to browse. Items were fairly marked, and it was your typical range of quality home goods/jewelry/winter garb/food stuffs. If you're visiting Cape May around the holidays, I'd say definitely stop in. There's even a carousel and train for kids, as well as a sleigh for photo ops.

Brown, Kaszak & Associates

I don't know how to express my endless gratitude to Brown, Kaszak & Associates. I primarily worked…read morewith Mr. Kaszak and found him delightful and sympathetic to my needs right away. My brother and I had been separated 22 years ago. I had very limited information and a needed to find him as soon as possible. Our father had passed away in April the year prior and his last words with me were a request; a promise really. He begged me to find my brother and let him know he died a good and decent man. You see, my father had married once before my mother and his dear wife died in a car crash. The three children they shared were all in the back seat. Such a horrible thing to witness as an early tween. Back then, it was very uncommon for fathers to raise children when the wife was deceased. It was more common practice for the wife's family to raise the children with the involvement of the father. Sadly, the family moved away without informing my dad. He searched to no avail. Over the years there were intermittent moments of contact , just to lose touch again. In 1995, by happenstance, I connected with my brother (there were 2 sisters and 1 brother). We spent a few months writing to each other and one weekend camping with our children. His 5 children and my 3 children. My father was overjoyed to reconnect and speak to his son. Alas, once again, we lost touch. Time passed, I searched the web with the information I had to no avail. Once my father passed on, I was driven by a daughter's promise. So, after 19 years, a year old promise to my dad, I contacted Mr. Kaszak. We met at a Starbucks close to my home so that I would not be troubled by travel. I gave him my pathetic tidbits of information which he assured me were very valuable and that often, people think that what they know is nothing special when it is the essential missing pieces to the trained professional. I submitted payment and we parted company. Early the following morning, my phone rang, I was surprised it was Chris Kaszak. Surely, he needed more information or was going to tell me my case was as hopeless as I found it to be. Imagine my shock when he informed me that not only had he found my brother via my sister-in-law, he had spoken to my brother. Chris could not give me my brother's information, he has strict rules about honoring privacy, nor would he give my brother my information without my direct expressed permission. Of corse, I said, "Yes, please have him call me!" We hung up and within mere minutes, my phone rang, again I answered and this time the voice on the other end of the line belonged to my big brother. I was shocked! It took less than 24 hours! I had tried on my own for years. We spoke for hours and have been close from that day to this. Chris had a policy that if he found your loved one in a certain period of time, you received a portion of your money back. Just as, if it took longer than a set period in time, he would reluctantly have to request more funds...should he have to fly to an area and beat the pavement for his clients. In my case, he was to return money to me. Now, no one would have known how quickly or how slowly his search took for my brother. When I mentioned this to Mr. Kaszak his only reply was, "I would know." Due to his determination, kindness and dedication to truth, I refused the money owed to me. The gift of my brother and all the family I had missed out on was worth so much more. My family and I owe Brown, Kaszak and Associates the gift of making our family whole again. I will be forever in their debt. If you want professionalism that has a heart and dedication to honesty and privacy, this group of private investigators is the only one you can truly trust. Bless you Chris Kaszak for giving me my family back and helping fulfill a dying mans last wish.

The home had been updated 10 years ago and was very eclectic. We had never felt totally settled in our prior home and wanted to work with a designer to feel totally settled into our new life across the country. In reviewing numerous Yelp and google reviews, we found Emilie at Home Methods and instantly fell in love with her bold and bright color palettes and the right amount of eclectic and classic to really match our personalities. We were still in escrow when we met Emilie and she came over to the home even before closing to take measurements and help us start envisioning our new home. Emilie walked us through every part of the process with expertise and enthusiasm. Emilie gave us quotes for helping pick out design ideas at various cost levels as well as helping us install her vision with appropriate contractors, delivery personnel, and shipping/storing until installment day. In the first round we decided on living room/dining room furniture, wallpaper/paint, art and decor. Once we were living in the home, we realized we needed to update the hardwood floors, which were not standing up to our pack of pets. Emilie helped us then identify some awesome luxury plank vinyl to protect the original hardwood underneath and a fantastic professional to install them. All of Emilies contractors were professional, kind, prompt, and provided excellent work product. Emilie herself is kind, personable, incredibly knowledgeable, prompt, enthusiastic, and flexible. We literally could not have imagined a better working relationship with such a big task. We absolutely love our home and all of the design choices that Emilie helped us make. With such an eclectic home she helped us marry the right balance of punchy and timeless, not to mention durable with 4 dogs and a cat. If you are looking for any home design project, big or small, Emilie is the right choice. We will continue to use her for ongoing updates and additions in the future because it was such a wonderful experience. Thank you Emilie for making this huge transition so easy and turning a house into a home!
