The first weekend of May is an ideal time to sip wine, and we are inviting you to stay with us at the John F. Craig House and take part in the Cape May Wine Weekend. Friday, May 1, indulge in a four-course Wine Tasting Dinner at the Washington Inn; the featured wine this weekend is Riesling, and all four courses are tailored specifically to highlight this tasty white. But the fun only starts with the meal. Saturday, you are invited to take part in a guided tour at the award-winning Cape May Winery Cellar Tour & Tasting. Sunday afternoon makes the weekend complete with a Wine School Class at the winery, where the wine steward will give you individual attention as he educates you on the wines you taste.

The John F. Craig House is less than a half mile from The Washington Inn, an 1840 plantation home that has been transformed into a fabulous restaurant. It’s an easy stroll if you like to walk, and a very short drive. Relax on our porch or bask in the sun in our gardens after your tour of the winery on Saturday, or before your class on Sunday. Consider taking advantage of our in-room massage special to make the weekend ultra-relaxing. After all, winter has finally departed, and the lovely month of May is upon us. It is time to celebrate.
