- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:No
- Wheel chair accessible:No
Already taking reservations for Summer 2013!! Bring your boat, or just simply Crab and Fish on the pier in the backyard of this 4 story sandcastle. Just 3/4 mile to beach, and a short walk to Harpoon Hanna's for a happening Happy Hour or exceptional meal!! Don't worry about the weather, the fourth floor game room has Fuse Ball, Air Hockey, Pool Table and TV with DVD Player, fun for kids and adults of all ages!
This 5 bedroom sandcastle has a bath and TV in every bedroom. Three huge decks for sunbathing to BBQ'ing. Available for use in garage are some bikes, some beach chairs and beach toys, and an umbrella and blanket for the beach. Plenty of off-street parking for at least 6 cars (or more depending on size). Reserve early for this house books fast.
As you enter the house on the first floor, you will find a living room room with a pull-out couch as well as two bedrooms. The purple bedroom has a queen size bed and the 'pirate' room has three twin beds (one set of bunk beds); each room has its own private bath and TV. Both of these rooms face the canal and have sliders out to the deck that wraps around three sides of the house. The outside shower for rinsing off sand from beach is located around to the side of house.
The second floor is the main living area, dining room, kitchen, and spare room that can be used as a bedroom. There are two sliders out to a covered deck with a BBQ grill and plenty of seating overlooking the canal. When you sit out here at Happy Hour, you can just hear the music from Harpoon Hannah's across the canal. The kitchen/dining/living room is an open floor plan with plenty of seating. In the living room you will find a couch and loveseat, as well as an additional pull-out couch, with a large TV. The kitchen and dining room will seat plenty of people between the two, (don't forget all the seating out on the deck!). At the front of the house there is an office/den equipped with wireless internet. It also can provide an additional semi-private bedroom. This room has a daybed with a twin trundle, a desk, and a utility closet containing the washer/dryer. Additional bathroom with shower next to spare room.
The Master Bedroom is on the third floor and faces the street. There is a King size bed and private bath with a separate shower, and jacuzzi tub. There is be Port-a-crib available in closet. Two other bedrooms are on this floor and each have queen size beds and private bath. These two rooms each have sliders to a large sunbathing deck that overlooks canal (as well as Harpoon Hanna's across the canal) with a wonderful view from the Little Assawoman Bay all the way to Ocean City.
And finally, on the fourth floor, is the rainy day room. It contains a pool table, fusball, and air hockey, a large TV/DVD and a couch and loveseat. There are two window seats that could be used for sleeping, big enough for children but not adults.

Celebrated a Birthday & Thanksgiving (all-in-one) and could not have done so at a more appropriate location there is nothing that wasn't available for a family to do together; biking, fishing, smores over firepit, games and because each bedroom has it's own bathroom and all but the Master have waterviews & balcony/deck, you have privacy too! I would recommend this property and the attentive Owners to anyone looking for the perfect family/group get-away.Recommended for: Girls getaway, families with young children, sightseeing, age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers.

Thank you, again, for allowing us to stay at your house in Fenwick Island this weekend. We had a wonderful time and the weather could not have been better. We've stayed at several beach homes in Bethany, Fenwick and the Outer Banks. None have been as thoughtfully supplied as your home! We really appreciated everything from extra beach chairs, to sand toys for our daughter, to the well-stocked with all the basics kitchen. And the fourth floor game room made a great place for everyone to gather before bed and shoot pool and watch the Ryder Cup highlights. Thank you for going the extra mile and providing everything one might need, from can openers, to laundry detergent to spare coffee filters.Did you find this review helpful?

We had a group of 12 guys for a couple days of golf. The Sandcastle was as listed and had plenty of space. Having a private bath for each bedroom was great. The canal side decks provided a nice view and a glimpse of Harpoon Hannah's across the water. Judy was always very responsive and nice to work with offering to help in any way she could. This would be a great house for a family vacation, girls weekend, golf outing...nearly anything! I will definitely check on the availability of The Sandcastle for my next trip to the OC area. Thanks Judy!Recommended for: Girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.

House is exactly as listed and well maintained. Judy was such a pleasure working with, always got prompt response to emails/phone calls. Location was perfect- everything a short walk or quick ride away. Almost preferred being on the canal then on the actual beach because we did a lot of crabbing and fishing! We had 8 adults and 6 kids ranging from 5months to 5years and there was more then enough room and plenty to do. Was sad to cut the week short because of Hurricane Irene, hopefully this sandcastle on the canal didnt sustain too much damage because we hope to come back next year!Recommended for: Girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.
Owner response: Thank you Erin. We also can't thank you enough for your help with getting our outdoor furniture in before you left, and for leaving our house in such nice condition. Turns out Irene didn't hit us too hard. We were lucky. We would look forward to having you back next year! Thanks again, Judy & Chuck

We have rented this home for two (2) years in a row for our family weekend. The house has a great layout, we have tweens & teenages who all love the 4th floor game room! The adults hang out on the 2nd floor in the kitchen/dining/living room area. We do alot of cooking and the kitchen has plenty of counter space. Four of the rooms have a direct walkout deck & waterview, the master bedroom doesn't, but it's perk is the jacuzzi tub! You can walk to Harpoon Hannah's, go around the corner to the movies or a short ride you can go ice skating (year round) at the Carousel Hotel, of course there are plenty of outlets to shop at in Rehobeth. The owner is super easy to work with and we never had any problems at the house either time we rented.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers.

This is a great house. We had 9 ladies and we all had room and loved it. A wonderful view of the canal and close to restaurants and shopping. Spacious great room nicely decorated. The only draw back was Harpoon Hannahs across the canal but they were not loud very late into the night. All and all wonderful and I would rent again. The owner was great to work with as well !!!!Recommended for: Girls getaway, families with young children, sightseeing, families with teenagers.
