Beautiful and quiet property

Gene was a very kind host and was not intrusive at all! My girlfriend and I stayed for only a few days, but definitely are looking to reserve this property for future trips! Thank you for providing such a great place for us to stay. The lake was really pretty and the ducks who visited us were very friendly. Incredibly charming location and animals around the property :) ms. Kitty is very sweet and soft, and I’m happy I got to have her greet us

Best stay in Delaware

We had a surprisingly great stay. We arrived late due to traffic, things were dark, we drove into an area unknown to us and thankfully Gere was there to flag us down! Tired and hungry, we received are key to the room and direction to a pizza place. When we opened the door to our Studio, we were blown away.it was fantastic.

Thanksgiving

The property was nice, itwould be an ideal vacation for summer months. We were not aware of the no cooking allowed rule, we never planned to cook full meals but simple things would have been good to be able to cook. There is a hot plate and microwavnote and agreen egg was available (we were not informed about where it was and when we could use it) Additionally, cooking was vehemently discouraged by being continually reminded that if there was any odor left behind, we would be charged extra. There is no ventilation. Our service dog was revealed in our first email prior to renting but up to the hour we arrived we received harassing emails stating the dog couldn't bark, was not allowed to lift his leg to pee, could not be left alone or off leash. He is a service dog and we supplied all documentation and even stated what my disability is, ( it is actually a hipaa violation to ask.) Overall it was a pleasant stay and we would recommend the property however definitely be prepared to ask specific questions about anything you would like to do during your stay and be prepared for strict instructions upon arrival. Also, we wanted to have visitors during our stay and my son and his family came over one day with permission but my friend who i wanted to see has a little dog and i was afraid to ask, after receiving all the messages about the service dog.

Beautiful studio apt on the lake

I stayed at this property with my dog who was participating in an event in Greenwood. I chose it specifically because it was dog friendly and on the water. It was perfect for us. There is a fenced in “off leash” pathway down to the lake. This was perfect because it enabled me to let my dog be off leash to do his “business”. The lake is beautiful and very private. The first day we saw no one at all, the second day just two men fishing from kayaks at 8:00 am. The apartment is beautifully decorated and has enough space to make you fee that it is much bigger than it actually is. If there was one thing that I could change it would be the size of the refrigerator. It is very small and while it worked for me, I only had food for one person. I understand the issues of finding a refrigerator for a such small space but It might be worth checking into mini fridges with more cubic feet when they replace it. I would have been happier with less freezer space and more room for food. As I said, it was fine for me, but I just thought I’d point it out. All in all, it was a fabulous place to stay and I hope to return!

The inside of the unit was immaculately clean. The property is gorgeous, just like being out in the middle of a forest. The owner was very informative and welcoming when we arrived.

Stress Reliver

This is the fourth year my wife and I have stayed here. The apartment is always very clean and neat. The bathroom is a nice size and we like the walk in shower. We enjoy lounging at the lake side deck, going out in the canoe, and a little fishing. It is a quite restful getaway. It is near Dover AFB and I recommend a visit to the Air Mobility Command Museum.

This was a very clean and nice place to stay. I would love to come back during the summer to take advantage of its location on the lake. There was a good amount of storage space if you like to unpack - more than I have seen in many short term rentals of this size.

Birding stay in Delaware

The Carriage House was a wonderfully cosy place to stay. Everything was comfortable - bed, chairs, sofa; the kitchen was well-equipped and easy to use; and the shower was fabulous. It was lovely to come back to warm, welcoming accommodation after a day out birding at Bombay Hook and along the coast. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
