Great location and property! Very central location providing easy access to a quiet beach within a 2min walk, or you can use this spot as your launch point to check out Lewes or Rehoboth. Everything was clean, organized and comfortable making the stay very enjoyable. And if you bring your dog, you'll enjoy walking up and down the quiet street to get awesome views of the beach and nature preserve!

We had a wonderful time at this beach house in Milton, Delaware. Great Location, easy walk to the beach. The house had everything we needed. It was clean and well stocked. Check in and Check out processes were simple to follow. The near by towns were lovely. Lewes - pronounced "Lewis" was a quaint "Hallmark" town with great restaurants, wonderful shops and beautiful scenery. We also went to Rehobeth Beach which was a bit bigger and had all the local stores we have at home. Our hosts Gina & Rodney left us a lovely gift for staying with them, which we were very grateful for.

Property was lovely and a short walk to the beach. The dogs had the best time except for the briars they accumulated in their fur walking through the dunes. It was a short stay but very accommodating. The weather was perfect which made the stay even better.

My husband and I had an amazing stay at Dawn’s Cottage! The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. Gina was super responsive and accommodating. The location was perfect — just a short walk to the beach — and our pups had the best time running and playing in the sand. We couldn’t have asked for a better getaway and would absolutely stay here again!

I have taken my summer family vacations in the Rehoboth area for the past several years and this year we wanted something quieter and more relaxed than the busy boardwalk area while still being on the beach. This cute sea side house was right across from Broadkill beach and it was absolutely a dream stay. We spent every day down on Broadkill with our two Pomeranians. There were less than 15 other people on the whole beach so we basically had it to ourselves which was crazy considering it was the 4th of July week! The house had 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a beautiful large living area with pull out sofa and a big deck. The best part was the outdoor shower which made cleaning up after the beach very easy. Restaurants, Lewes and Rehoboth beach were an easy drive so we were able to enjoy our favorite spots while still having a calm quiet place to stay and rest. Other important points: the host was extremely responsive, kind and helpful. Everything was clean and welcoming with every amenity you could need for a family or couple. The beach was clean and quiet and also more wild than others in the area so we got to have tons of fun spotting crabs, birds, turtles and playing with the dogs. Some reviews of Broadkill mention bugs can pop up but we brought some bug spray and had zero issues. The whole family loved our trip and if I could give more than 5 stars I would!
