Delaware Beachfront Private Getaway on the Bay

Welcoming serene Delaware Beachfront cottage located in the heart of the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge (8000+acres). Beautiful natural beach with Delaware Bay and Atlantic Ocean views. Abundant wildlife, birds, and sea life. Property is sanitized and sparkling clean with basic amenities.
After years and years of study, we have come up with an all natural, eco friendly solution to common insects at the beach. We now have a new addition to our private beach paradise, a family of resident, Purple Martin’s to take care of all those pesky insects!
Free Wi-Fi! The Cottage has cold A/C and is heated during colder months. Enjoy surf fishing. Bring your own boat, jet skis, kayak, or Jon boat and beach chairs. Free Wi-Fi!

Fenced yard for dogs. Shower off the sand in the Bath(Shed)House. Laundry & bathroom are available in Bath(Shed)House. However, Shed House is Winterized during the months of, Dec, Jan, Feb & March. So no water usage, no second bathroom.

Awesome porch/great room, perfect for entertaining! Listen to the soothing waves or relax by the fire pit under a starlit night sky. Witness beautiful sunrises over the Atlantic Ocean and in the evening, see stunning sunsets over the refuge wetlands.

Go back in time in this quaint 1960's beach cottage. Enjoy the simple life! No crowds, no boardwalks, no shopping or restaurants on the beach. No stress, no worries. Private and quiet. Perfect artist retreat.

Located within 115 miles of Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington DC. Located 20 miles north of Rehoboth Beach. 10miles from Lewes Beach....

Off-Season discounts are available. ***Weekend rentals available in October, November-December and March-April***

We had a wonderful stay for our anniversary weekend! Suzy is an incredible host, was so on top of communication. This cozy beach house was clean in a wonderful quiet area away from all of the tourist areas where you can really just enjoy nature. We feel so recharged! Still close enough to get quickly into town and enjoy restaurants, shops and mini golf. Our sweet old dog got to enjoy the very dog friendly beach. We can’t wait to come back with the kids!

Rejuvenating Getaway

The cottage, beach, and community were just what I needed after an especially stressful spring. The house was clean and bright and cheery. Being right on the beach reminded me of childhood summers at my uncle's cottage in Slaughter Beach.
