The Stove was unclean when we got there someone had let something boil over.The couches are very old and uncomfortable.The view was good. The shower upstairs was so small could not shave your legs in there. I showered downstairs painted cinderblock walls. There is water leaking on the floor my husband said he thought from air conditioner I used towels there to help gather the water .The rug close by was wet. the Air conditioner worker well we had 2 hot days.

Bathroom and bedrooms were small-ish, but very nicely finished. Well equipped main living area. But - let’s be honest - you book this place for the view. Incredible finished porch as a full additional room with an entire wall of windows facing the Delaware. Just beautiful!Location is pretty remote… but I enjoyed the remove. Automatically a slower pace. Be aware, though, that you’re about 20 minutes from every Wawa, Royal Farms, or Dunkin. (At least until the RF is finished in Milton.)

This is our second visit to the cottage this year and the place continues to exceed our expectations. Mike and Laura are accommodating hosts and very responsive to queries. The picture windows to the bay are the highlight of the house, offering unrestricted views to beautiful sunrises. A well-appointed house, there is room to relax, slow down and have a wonderful bonfire on the beach. Thanks for being great hosts!

Beach Relaxation

Very peaceful ride back to beach home. Check in was smooth and we wasted no time going to the beach which was easily accessible with a nice little path. The water, the sunrise, and quiet atmosphere was so relaxing. Folks in the community were so friendly.

Lovely beach getaway for families and dogs

This house is prettier than the photos, with breathtaking views of the Delaware Bay. The beach is literally outside your back door. Super clean, lots of space, modern appliances, well stocked kitchen, very well maintained property. It’s a quiet neighborhood with super nice neighbors. We loved walking on the beach with our dog. The water is very shallow. It’s right next to a nature preserve. Great restaurants are a short drive away. We especially liked Hacienda in Milford and Po Boys Cajun in Milton. Our son fished every day. Our daughter went for runs on the beach. It was fun to see a thriving population of piping plovers. Assateague Island is an easy day trip. We loved seeing the wild horses. The owners were super responsive and helpful. We were able to rent a tandem kayak and a beach wheelchair. You’re not far from the Rehoboth boardwalk. There are great independent shops nearby, including Frantic Frets, where our musician daughter bought an amazing used banjo. Bring beach towels and a hairdryer. Everything else was provided. Thanks for a fantastic stay!

We loved everything about it! The house/property was amazing and everything provided (from fully functional kitchen, to beach toys to linens!). This is our 2nd time staying in this community and all the residents are always welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed rescuing Horseshoe Crabs every morning. The only things was we thought one room had a queen bed. Maybe some updates to descriptions and photos to to VRBO page :-) Thank you so much for sharing your home with us, and any feedback for us is welcome!

Book Club get Away

Our 5 members truly enjoyed the privacy of the beach and the large picture windows to gaze on the beach when it was too hot to be in the sun. The lower level was perfect for one of our members and for coming in and out from the beach. We appreciated two showers and toilets. The horseshoe crabs were a bit much at first, but we just got accustomed to them. We had a very relaxing, enjoyable week.

Great beachfront getaway

What a lovely house with beautiful panoramic windows and views of the bay and beach! The house was well-maintained and well-equipped for guests, with plenty of space for this family of four dog. (We loved the doggie designated towels.) The hosts were responsive and accommodating; their TLC for the house is apparent and appreciated. If given the opportunity, we will definitely come back.

Lovely, quiet getaway

We loved the remoteness and solitude of this place. The house was very clean (no dust or musty/moldy smells), the kitchen was nicely appointed, and it was nice to have linens and towels provided! We felt like we had the entire to beach to ourselves, though the crabs definitely ruled the roost! The owners provided all the necessary info via messages and a binder, and were very pleasant in communications. Watching the sunrise each morning from the enclosed porch was a highlight. You couldn't get any closer to the ocean! There is a nice selection of books, DVDS, games and puzzles (our puzzle was missing 3 pieces, bummer). The beds were comfortable, the living room futon was not. The bathroom is quite small and doesn't afford much privacy. Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would book this house again.
