Gorgeous pano views, Beach Front Access and hot tub! Your peaceful escape!

Enjoy the most beautiful views in slaughter beach overlooking both the Delaware Bay and Prime Hook Marsh, preached atop the tallest deck in town you can enjoy your coffee or evening cocktail with spectacular panoramic views!
Slaughter Beach is a gem of a town that is peaceful and quiet, nature abounds with ospreys, eagles, shore birds, and a walk along the dog friendly beach is sure to provide some treasures to find. The beach almost feels exclusive, few passers by who like you are making the most of the salt air and beautiful scenery.
Sunsets on the westward facing decks are unimpeded and spectacular. Relax on the porch swing with someone you love with plenty of room for others situated in their Adirondack chairs simply enjoying what matters most. In the evenings you can take in the stars. With very low light pollution the stars can be unreal some nights, sit in the hot tub with the people of your choice and soak it all in.
Slaughter Beach provides the balance and peace a real vacation requires, only a short drive into the hub-bub but perfectly removed. Close by Rehoboth and Lewes beaches can be great for an evening out or a trip to the boardwalk with family. The town provides access to tennis, basketball, pavilion, boat launch, and DuPont Nature Center. Take a family bike ride down Bay Ave or a active jog with few cars passing you by.
The home has 5 bedrooms total and 4 full bathrooms. Two King Master Bedrooms, a Queen, dual twins in bedroom four and a bunk bed in the 5th. bedroom.

This is our 3rd summer staying in this lovely house with our kids and grandkids. It is the perfect place for a family vacation. The kids once again had a great time exploring the uniqueness of Slaughter Beach with horseshoe crabs, shells, etc. We had so many fun adventures, sand shark fishing, going to Funland in Rehoboth, exploring Lewes and Cape Henlopen, riding the ferry to Cape May. Probably the best was enjoying games and meals together at the house. Katie and Ed are always available for questions and give great suggestions on what the lower Delaware area has to offer. Lots of wonderful memories!

Great family vacation home!

This home is so amazing!! Just can’t say enough great things about it. The kitchen is awesome- it has everything you need for family feasts! So many different areas to nap or read a book, as well as room to work on a jigsaw puzzle, play games, or just relax in the many comfy outside areas. The private entrance to the beach was perfect for our dogs, and we spent many hours just walking the beach picking up shells. You never have to leave the property to enjoy your stay!

This place is absolutely beautiful,The hostess was very helpful and attentive to our vacation needs. We enjoyed the walk up distance to the beach and the sunset and sunrise. Waking up in the morning watching the beach and feeling that cool beach breeze on the back porch was incredible with a cup of coffee. The home is absolutely beautiful and homey, my husband and I and our puppy definitely enjoyed it. Delaware is an amazing place to visit and to live. There was a lot of dog friendly places and the seafood was incredible. We are definitely going to visit again and definitely reserving with the same hostess . They were awesome.

Absolutely gorgeous home.

This beach house is beautiful and nicely decorated. Everything you need at a beach house. Our entire small family spent a week there and it was wonderful. The sunrises were spectacular as well as the sunsets. It’s a quiet area. Close to restaurants, bakeries, and grocery stores. We played in the sand and water, rode bikes, played cards, and have many wonderful memories at this beautiful home. The owners are always available and quickly respond. I highly recommend this beach house.

Heavenly vacation home

We were thrilled with our vacation. The pictures are accurate but the house is so well layed out and so beautifully appointed you will be pleasantly surprised. Beach access is 50 feet from the front door and it is a peaceful beautiful place with views in the distance of Cape May and the Ships. This was beyond our usual price range but we all agreed it was worth every penny and the layout etc enhanced the ability of Mimi and families of 2 adult children to enjoy it thoroughly! Btw Rehoboth etc is about 40 min away for those who want boardwalk and vibrancy vibes. Can not recommend more highly.

Vacation at Slaughter Beach

Our experience and dealings with the property owners was awesome! The home was beautiful and perfect for a family. We could not have asked for a more perfect home for our vacation. The only thing that we were not aware of was being on a marsh, the water receded and there was significant mud and we were not able to be in the water all day. However, beautiful beaches were nearby and we spent beach days at nearby Broadkill Beach which was not crowded and perfect for children! I can’t say enough about our hosts, how gracious and responsive they were and how absolutely gorgeous their home was. Thank you!

Vacation and Connection

This is our second stay in this beautiful home with such gracious hosts. It is such a fabulous place to have everyone in our family gather. Our grandkids (we have 6) ages 1-10 had such fun together. Since they only get to see one another a couple times of year the older ones were excited to come back remembering all the fun times they had last year. We explored the special things unique to Slaughter Beach, wandering out at low tide, flipping horseshoe crabs, etc. We also had fun with the excitement of various attractions in Rehoboth Beach and Cape Henlopen. Katie and Ed's home is perfect for playing games together, cooking and enjoying meals together and just a breathtaking view of the Delaware Bay. Thank you for another wonderful year at the beach to relax and connect!

Together again

It had been a long time since our entire family has been able to spend extended time together due to Covid and health issues. We were familiar with the peacefulness of Slaughter Beach since I had family who lived in lower Delaware. We spent a lot of summers in the past at the beach and it was so great to be back and share the setting with our grandkids. The house was amazing, accommodating all 12 of us very comfortably along with our 2 dogs. Ed and Katie were easy to get a hold of, always able to answer any questions we had. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The kids are all already talking about wanting to do it again next year.

The Laughing Gull

This is an excellent vacation property! The owners responded quickly to any questions we had. Having access to the house through the garage to the elevator of this four story home made unloading suitcases, beach gear and groceries a breeze. The multiple decks offered quiet spots to relax. My favorite was the view over the Marvel Salt Marsh each evening to watch the sunset. When we wanted to get out, Milford, Lewes and busy Rehobeth were available. The house is super equipped from the kitchen to the beach equipment. We unloaded but didn’t use many things we brought because they were already at the house. The neighbors at Slaughter Beach were friendly and helpful. Our whole family (ages 7 to 83) enjoyed this property.

Perfect house!

We can’t say enough about this property! The jacuzzi on the top balcony w/ fire pit is amazing. The sunrises and sunsets were superb. The host is very available but not a helicopter host. The pantry is loaded with anything and everything you need for cooking. The bikes were fun. We took many bike rides. The elevator works perfect, and is very helpful to get groceries up. There is not a negative thing I can think of about this property. Worth every penny❤️….. also the construction of this home is solid. It is A #1 … I would definitely say if any family is looking for a true getaway rent at The Laughing Gull. Hope to be back
