Historic Cold Spring Village


In Cape May, not too far from the beach area, is Historic Cold Spring Village.  Featuring actors dressed from the 19th century, this quaint village gives visitors the opportunity to see what life was like back in this time period.

We traveled here with a 5 year old, and were surprised with how well things went.  The staff were very engaging and friendly with her.  They let her play with various props such as a shield, a chalkboard and a dunce cap.  We spent about 90 minutes here and she had a great time.

For adults, there's the opportunity to learn about the time period as there were various buildings representing different occupations from then such as being a blacksmith, teacher and soldier.

This is a great place to stop if you're in the area, especially with kids around 5 years of age.
