Books Are Best At The Beach!

Find out all that Dreams Come True Cottage has in store for avid readers.

Without a doubt, one of my favorite pastimes has always been reading. The healthy habit of reading is made even better when you are at the beach! At Dreams Come True Cottage, in Cape May Beach/Villas, NJ, the best places to curl up and read a book are on the back yard hammock, the living room sofa by the gas fireplace or on a chair on the beach! No matter the season, books are better at the beach!

Yep, reading on a blanket on the beach is where I like to be!

If your family includes children, we offer a very special collection of children’s books as well. There are hundreds of children’s books from our personal collection, some of which have been enjoyed over three generations of our family’s children. We hang onto them for our guests to enjoy, and with the hope that one day, my husband and I will be blessed to hold a grandchild or two on our laps and read to them from the same special books I enjoyed as a child (Cindy Bakes A Funny Cake, Little Bear, or any of the many Little Golden Books I have collected over the decades).

We also provide a small and varied collection of books for adults. Bring your own book or enjoy one of ours. Whether it be children books or books for grown-up, you will find them scattered around the cottage, in bedside stands and on living room shelves.

This is a part of our children's book collection at Dreams Come True Cottage.

But the GREATEST new addition to book lovers in our neighborhood is the Fern Road Free Library. Located only five houses down from our front door near the corner of Fern Road and Bay Drive, this little “library” is a beautiful wooden box with a window, mounted on four wooden legs, and with a little key to open up and access the treasures within! On the day I discovered the Fern Road Free Library, there were even some crayons and bubbles for children to enjoy on their next visit. The concept is simple. “Borrow, Return or Replace. But most of all, ENJOY!”

Awww, isn't just the cutest little free library you've ever seen?!

Yes, we sure love books at Dreams Come True Cottage, and we love to host families that share our joy for the worlds that can open up for those that make reading an important part of their lives.

Safe travels, whether that travel be by plane, train, automobile or by BOOK!

Morfar (Swedish for "Mother's Father" (AKA my dad), began reading to my daughter, Adalie, at an early age. She is now a great lover of books and many of her favorites sit on the shelves at Dreams Come True Cottage.
