Starfish Cottage - a hidden gem
My stay at Starfish Cottage was everything I could want and more. The cottage was clean, comfortable and welcoming. The location is ideal with regard to proximity of the beach, good food and accessibility to surrounding activities, while providing a quiet place to relax and recharge. My interactions with the owner were warm and friendly. My questions and/or concerns were answered promptly. Every aspect of my vacation was a positive experience. I would highly recommend Starfish Cottage.

Starfish Cottage was just perfect!!!
Starfish Cottage was just perfect!! Very cute! Just the right size and well equipped with things you just might need!!! I really enjoyed the fenced in outdoor patio for morning coffee or night time cocktails! Talk about location, location, location!!! Steps away from the beach, Dewey beer, starboards, etc! We enjoyed riding our bikes to Rehoboth!! We are already planning on our next year’s trip back!!! Gary & Pat were awesome hosts and great to work with!!! ❤️🏖️

So Close to the Beach
This is a lovely compact property. Ideal for us since the beach was a stones throw away, and front fenced patio ideal for our small dog. Its is also ideally located to many eateries. Gary very easy to reach as well if there are any questions.

Adorable Beach Cottage
Love the location just a few feet from the beach. Easy to park the other renters and us got along very well. But if there was ever an issue the parking pass worked out great. Loved the front, fenced in area. Great for relaxing and watch the people go to and from the beach. Our pup, Max loved it as well. It was his BEST vacation ever ! ....and our as well. We already booked this cottage again for next April.

Grateful for the getaway
Adorable storybook cottage with excellent proximity to beach, restaurants, shops. The Jolly Trolley to Rehoboth stops right at the end of the street. Plenty of privacy and shade from established crepe myrtles surrounding the property. I noted the toaster was broken on the first day (not a big deal) and let the owner know. The silverware in the kitchen was sparse, I imagine some has disappeared over years of renting. They could use another set. We improvised with a lot of plastic utensils saved from takeout meals. There’s an outdoor foot rinsing spigot on the far end of the spacious, newly-paved patio out front. It would be an amazing upgrade to convert it to a standup outdoor shower with privacy fence enclosing it and hooks to hang towels - then I would have opted to take all my showers outside instead of the indoor bathroom which is quite small. Overall a darling little place with charming coastal decor. Many thanks for the escape!

Cute, clean dog friendly cottage in great location
Loved being close to the beach! For a place that allows dogs (which is great) it was very clean and well cared for. Communication was good too. If I could ask for anything, it would be better lighting in the bedrooms. I highly recommend this rental for any couple or small family.

Perfect cottage for a small family and dog
Our family enjoyed our week at Dewey Beach. The cottage is perfect for a family of 4 and a dog. A great spot to go to and from the beach each day. Having a fenced in area allowed us to sit outside with our dog and enjoy the mornings and evenings. We are looking forward to our trip next summer.
