Birding Lovers Dream
Perfect getaway for a bird lovers vacation. We walked on the beach daily, took photos of numerous osprey, eagles and wildlife of Egg Island and Fortescue. We hiked the local park preserves and visited the cohanzick zoo. We even got a private tour of the AJ Meerwahl tall ship. The place was well kept, clean and had all the necessary amenities. We loved our stay! Thank you!

The perfect, peaceful getaway!
If you're looking to relax and enjoy insanely beautiful views, while staying in an immaculate, home away from home... this is THE place!!! I like to refer to Fortescue as a "sleepy little fishing town." Communication was on point. This is the second time that I've stayed at "The Eagles Nest," and I have all intentions of returning... soon!! :)

All the Comforts of Home
The owners of this home went above and beyond to supply anything you might need during your stay. Small touches throughout show how mindful and accommodating they are. Our family resides on the island all year and now we have a place to stay while visiting!

The perfect, peaceful getaway!!
The Eagle's Nest is the perfect little gem in a quaint, quite fishing town! The view of the Delaware Bay and the sunsets is absolutely beautiful. The house is completely renovated, immaculate, and the perfect amount of space for a family of 3-4. (or a solo trip to get away from all of the "noise.") The owner's communication was on point. I mayyy be a bit obsessed with the new washer and the setup (also w/dryer) being in the bathroom made it simple to do two loads of laundry, I wish I brought more and I LOATHE doing laundry! It rained all day, my only full day there, so I didn't get to walk around the neighborhood, but still enjoyed my time there. :) My best friend and I are already booked to go back next month, and I'm very much looking forward to returning! Thank you, Melanie & Jeff!!

What a beautiful spot! It was everything that I was hoping for and more: A really beautiful view, quiet town, clean and cozy house and I couldn’t have asked for better hosts.
