Location: Waterside, Bethany Beach, Delaware, USA (2 mile drive or 1.5 mile bike ride to the beach)
Accommodations: Townhouse, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 7-8)
This Bethany Beach rental townhouse was just completed in October 2004 as part of the new Waterside community. When we first saw this two-level home with its three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, we were immediately attracted by the wonderful location and features that make it an ideal vacation spot:
- End unit with wooded lots on the side and back for privacy and quiet,
- Faces a pond with tadpoles and frogs for the young ones to explore,
- Fountain in the pond provides a pleasant sound and sight as you leave the house,
- Last unit in the courtyard so no traffic at this site.
Once we got inside the house, we were further impressed by the quality standards and many features including:
- Welcoming entry with high vaulted ceilings,
- Gas fireplace, zoned cooling and heating for a comfortable visit,
- Expansive windows on the side facing the woods,
- Sunroom with a large, fenced deck off the back,
- Gas grill hook-up on the deck (and we have the grill),
- Three bedrooms with full baths off both of the back bedrooms (upstairs and downstairs),
- Ceiling fans in every room
- Convenient nook upstairs between the bedrooms for a TV and wrap-around sofa (with hide-away bed),
- Upstairs loft provides additional sitting area,
- Fully equipped kitchen including dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator (with ice maker and filtered water dispenser), stove, and lots of storage along with a large coffee maker, toaster oven, and a variety of pots, pans, utensils, glasses, mugs, silverware and glasses,
- Half bath near the front door and garage,
- Stacking full-sized washer and dryer.
We've since been busy making improvements and adding those additional touches for a pleasant stay:
- TVs with DVD/VCR players and a selection of tapes on both levels (downstairs TV is on a cart to allow breakfast in bed or watching around the sitting areas),
- Queen beds in both master bedrooms,
- Twin beds with a trundle bed in the front bedroom sleeps 3,
- Labeled wall light switches to make it easy to get the lights and fans on,
- Safety items like child-proofed sockets, fire extinguishers, and carbon monoxide detector,
- Games, books. and puzzles for all ages,
- Coordinated decorating in each room,
- Dining room table expands to accomodate visitors easily,
- Added a fence to the back deck along with the large picnic table,
- Assortment of bikes for trips to the beach (an easy ride)
The Waterside community provides a wonderful location to Bethany Beach and surrounding areas with:
- Convenient access to the beach (less than 1.5 miles) and main thoroughfares,
- Community outdoor pool,
- Safe walking with side walk and no through traffic,
- Access to nearby boat launch that leads to the ocean.
