The Beach Club of Cape May is a unique and friendly oasis located on the extreme east end of Cape May’s beaches, adjacent to the Coast Guard Station. We are proud to be located in the nations’s oldest seashore resort and have been contributing to its rich history since our founding in 1964. We are a private organization and proud to be Cape May’s “best kept secret”. We have provided recreational a

ctivities and family fun for many generations of Cottagers and Cape May residents. History

In 1844, there were approximately 50 private “summer cottages” in Cape May, most of which were inhabited by Delaware River and Bay pilots. Later in the nineteenth century, a “Cottagers Association” was formed, but it was disbanded in the early twentieth century. In 1938, the “Cottagers” reorganized and a year later, the Green Mill Club was founded to provide activity and recreation for the children of the Cottagers and Cape May residents. After twenty five years in successful operation, the fondly remembered carousel shaped green building was destroyed by fire. Meanwhile, continuing erosion of Cape May’s beaches, which was exacerbated by the 1962 storm, convinced many of the need for a dedicated beach for summer residents. In 1964, the Cape May Cottagers Beach Club was incorporated and opened, with Eleanor Meeker as its first president. As indicated by its name, membership in The Cottagers Association was a prerequisite for membership in The Beach Club. It remained so until 1986, when the name was changed to Beach Club of Cape May, and membership was opened to non-Cottagers for all to enjoy! Membership

The Beach Club of Cape May is private and membership is by invitation only. One cannot request or purchase a membership; rather, an existing member must propose the prospective member for membership. The proposer must be someone who has known the prospective member for at least one year. We cannot respond to unsolicited membership inquiries. The process must be initiated by an existing member of the club. We do not publish a club directory or listing of members. The club is not accepting new members at this time.
