This house was perfect. It was spacious, clean, and very well equipped. The views of the marsh and bay were spectacular. It was so relaxing to sit on the back deck and watch the wildlife. It was a short walk to the beach and we enjoyed watching the fishermen along the way. We will definitely be coming back again.

Our family of four stayed here in the off season. The house was very roomy and we spent a lot of time on the deck bird watching. While the house is near route 1, you could not hear the highway and the surrounding neighborhood was quiet. Easy access to the beach, Bethany and nearby attractions. The kitchen was fully stocked but don’t forget towels and sheets. The beds did have pillows and comforters. Plenty of blankets too - it was chilly during some of our stay and we all used them. We would recommend this home.

Great vacation house! It was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The location is central, making it easy to get to both Rehoboth and Bethany and a perfect jumping-off point for exploring the area, such as a beach across the highway that is minutes from the property. We liked being in a gated community since it felt safe and quiet, and the recreation room was a huge hit with my son. The host was responsive and made everything simple, and we’d definitely stay again.

I cannot recommend this location enough! Jason (property manager) was amazing. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was able to provide suggestions when I was looking for specific services. This was my first time in the Bethany/Dewey/Rehoboth area, and everything is so close together. You can have the beach, nightlife, and shopping experience all within a 25 min radius of each other. The house is so CUTE! Much bigger than it looks on the outside. All of the beds were super comfortable - as were the couches. House came with everything we needed (as advertised - i.e. plates, cooking utensils, sponge, dishwasher soap, etc). Very safe and beautiful area. The view from the end of the street during sunset is unmatched. The back deck also offers a beautiful view. We had two bird friends the whole stay. We went for a boat ride with Back Bay Tours and they took us right by the property - it was a fun surprise. The house fit 8 of us easily - the only tight squeeze was in the bathroom when we were all trying to get ready. 11/10, hope to go back again! :) I would upload pictures, but I am on my laptop and all of the pictures are on my phone.

Ideal vacation cottage!

We loved staying at this home. It had everything we needed, and was very relaxing. Don’t forget your binoculars (for some spectacular sea bird viewing) — actually we were able to watch a gorgeous heron right out the window! The owner was totally responsive: before, during and after our stay.

Short Getaway

We were looking for a place to stay that was not along a highway or in a noisy area when we found this home. It was tucked far enough away from the highway that we couldn't easily hear all the motorcycles crossing over the bridge, and in the morning had a secluded view looking south over the bay where we could see the sun rise, and birds flying about. From the deck we couldn't see neighbors and they couldn't see us. We didn't use anything inside the home other than the Kurig machine and the kitchen sink, and had our own mugs. The decor was cozy and nice, and to be honest when we first pulled in we weren't sure what we had rented, but once we stepped inside the amount of space was amazing. With every great review there is always something that maybe you wished was a little different but not a negative. The master bedroom had a king size bed which was great, but I will say the space between the bed and the wall on the right side of the bed was a little close. We also noticed that TV streaming in the bedroom, as well as wifi strength on that end of the house wasn't the best, but you're in the bedrooms to sleep, right?? Would we consider this home again? Very definitely. It was clean, secluded, great view, easy access, gated community, quiet, and a great place to get away. Would recommend to Friends and Family as well. Owner was great with communications. Provided a nice fact sheet with door/gate codes, some local links and everything we needed to arrive and depart.
