Description of the Area and Activities:
The guarded beach is about 100 yards away from the house and there is off street parking for 6 cars. And if you need it, we supply parking passes for on street parking. There is also access to a large state park beach right up the road with plenty of parking. The park has lifeguard, showers, restrooms, snack bar, and umbrella rentals and the beach was replenished in the Fall of 2005 so it is very wide.
Fenwick’s beach is guarded, quiet and not at all crowed as you need to have a resident pass to park which restricts the number of beach goers. We supply 2 Wonder Wheel Beach Caddies that holds Full 48 qt. Cooler and up to 4 chairs, plus sturdy mesh bag storing tons of gear.

I have been renting my beach vacation rental homes since 1985 when I rented my 1985 new 7 bedroom oceanfront home in N Bethany for $26,000 for a season. Which I didn't sell it in 1989!
You can see another of my homes at this site and from there also see my Sunset and Indian homes. The three sleep three families comfortably in 3500 to 4000 sq ft.

This is definately a YaYa kind of place! Lots of "get together" room and lots of "get away from everybody" room too. We found it to be so big we'd forget which floor we were on!! It was great having internet access to keep in touch with our families, email and local news too. It's big enough that a few more twin beds could be added in some of the rooms because the house is certainly big enough to accommodate more sleeping space. Beware....we YaYa's will be back.

It was not a good week weather wise with high winds on the beach so hanging around the pool with the kids splashing and the adults reading and laughing many an hour really made the week great. At night we'd sit in the hot tub with our wine and the stars above us. What a life! The home could not have been better.
Owner response:Thanks for renting our home hope to see you again.

My immediate family and my extended family really enjoyed this spacious home and the fact it could fit our large group well and have two dens and 4 decks for the teens to go to and hang out, leaving us to have a somewhat quiet great room to occupy. We all had a blast -- the kids especially loved the pool, as well as the adults. The kids could swim and we sat out of the sun. The walk to the beach was just a minute or two and that was great compared to our 10 min walk last year. the kitchen was amazing especially the beach scene built into the counter top
Owner response:I am sorry that you were unhappy and did not understand that our cleaner fell ill that day and we could not get a cleaner there till the next day.

Was skeptical when I read this was a Wow! house. However, as has happened lots in my life I was wrong to not believe it. The interior is to die for; bright beachy colors, incredibly designed columns and other touches and many places to sleep. The walk to the beach is just a few steps which we loved as we had good weather and went to the beach each day. It was impeccably neat and clean inside. This is a Wow home
Owner response:Wow! Thanks for the glowing review. This is my 12th beach vacation rental home since 1985 and getting feedback on my guests experience in the homes has enabled me to build homes that support great friends and family vacations. My team works damn hard to be sure the home supports you in having one of the best vacations you have had.

My kids called this the skiddle house-a wonderful collage of bright, playful and beach colors. The kids and we adults just had a crazy time in the home, pool and beach. The home had everything we needed. We are coming back.

A group of friends wanted to find a place to relax and enjoy each other's company before the start of the school year. The Canon House was a perfect fit. There was plenty to do within walking distance including the beach. The house was immaculate and well maintained. My friends and I had a great time hanging out all together. Loved it!
Owner response:When I built my three rental homes, all with many sleeping areas, I designed them to provide a great beach experience for my guests. Getting reviews like this one are very satisfying. Ralph

We stayed at the Red House for a long weekend in May 2011 and while the property was very large and easily accomodated our group we found the house to be run down and ill-maintaned. There was pasta sauce (or some other red food) stuck on the dining room ceiling, sticky patches on the floor throughout, cobwebs and visibly dirty bathtubs. While we found the property manager helpful and responsive prior to our trip we emailed her about our concerns regarding the cleanliness of the house and a few days later we're still waiting for her response. On a posiive note: I will say that the house is really spacious and well equiped. Additionally, having a heated pool was spectacular for our party which consisted of several small children. The location is also fantastic as it's a short 2 minute walk to a great beach and only a quick drive to Bethany and Rehoboth. I hope the Red House owners and managers respond to our commens by improving the maintenance and condition of the house so that future renters don't encounter the same issues we did.
Owner response:Since this review we have changed cleaning companies and addressed these issues. As the renter stated the house is great for family get together, reunions, church retreats and is only a minute walk to the beach. In all the years we have rented there have been very few complaints. All in all you will find this a great vacation home with a private hot tub and pool

My friends and I were looking to get away from the city and enjoy some time together without getting on an airplane. The Cannon House was perfect. The rooms were large enough for everyone and the amount of space was incredible. We were all able to sit and watch movies in the spacious living room and still have a conversation with someone in the kitchen. The set up was perfect. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and we went to the beach during the day and came home to "our" house and were able just to hang out all together laugh and relax. It was exactly what we were looking for. Thank you.

This is a Wow Home. My Sister-in-Law found this house for our family vacation rental. She said it was perfect, but I had no idea. The attention to detail in the décor and amenities could not be outdone. We are a rather large family with a lot of young/teenage children. The house offered something for everyone. Unfortunately the weather was not that great during our stay, but the house still managed to keep everyone happy. I would recommend this property to anyone for a great vacation stay. I almost hated to leave. It is definitely on our list for next year if we decide to return to Fenwick.

We so enjoyed our week there. We planned the week for us and our children and families to celebrate my husband and myself retiring. Everyone was thrilled with the house, location and Delaware. We will definitely rent this house in coming years - it was perfect. Thanks again.
