Is the Villas Wildlife Management Area the place that includes the old golf course?
CS: That’s it, the golf course, the old Ponderlodge golf course…Look at where it is in terms of the morning flight coming north right out of Higbee’s. What it is now, is an overgrown golf course going to grasslands, they’ve left a lot of nice tree islands, there’s some real wet woods, it’s right on the edge of Cox Hall Creek. Last year there seemed to be a pair of resident Bald Eagles…And they’ve left all the golf cart paths in…There’s one tiny downside, by mid-day there’s all these walkers and bicyclers and stuff, but not in the early hours… PS: And it’s big, there’s all these uncrowded back trails you can go on. You can go in there whenever you want…just park and go. What are some of your favorite times of year in Cape May? CS & PS: Any day outdoors is a GREAT day at Cape May. We love “owling” in the winter months, butterflying & dragonflying all warm months (April through October), breeding birds and beach nesters in summer, and there’s nothing like witnessing migration unfolding al
