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!

Terrific Stay on the Beach

The cottage was just as advertised - extremely clean and comfortable with all the amenities we needed, including fast wifi, a great deck, and a very neat outdoor shower, in addition to two indoor showers. Just steps from a very clean and quiet beach with plenty of seashells, clear warm water, great sunrises, and zero crowds. It is effectively a private beach that we all greatly enjoyed. Thanks for a great stay. We look forward to returning in the future.

Relaxing and quiet getaway

Dawn's Cottage was perfect!! We were looking for a quiet beach neighborhood between Frederica and Rehobeth and it absolutely fit the bill. One road in and out and nestled between some marsh and the ocean, everything was clean and neat, the space was roomy and had all the amenities we needed, and communication was just about instantaneous. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for the same.

Dawn's Cottage is absolutely adorable and the perfect place to decompress, relax, and celebrate my birthday and our anniversary. Loved the remote location and beach access, yet still easy to get to Lewes & Rehoboth. We enjoyed trying out some of the hot spots in the helpful binder of local restaurants and attractions.
