About this property

Rustic Cottage at Broadkill Beach

Looking for the perfect beach location - quiet, secluded and where you can enjoy nature and time with your family? Our Family Tides Cottage is just that - it is quiet, secluded, yet close to major attractions (shopping, restaurants, theaters, golf, etc).

The space

No hustle, no bustle, no traffic lights, no crowded beaches. In the mornings, relish the beautiful sunrises over the Delaware Bay, and in the evenings, the gorgeous sunsets over the Primehook wildlife refuge behind you. During the day, stroll back to Deep Hole Creek via our private walkway.

Relax on the beach, read that book you have been putting off, take a walk along the sandy shore, swim in the bay, comb for seashells and sea glass or enjoy a bonfire on the beach with family and friends.

Pamper yourself with high speed internet, cable TV and comfortable beds. We also provide guests with access to a beach cart, beach chairs, an umbrella and a beach blanket to save room in the car!

For the days you want more social interaction, it is only a fifteen to twenty minute drive to the following places: touring the Dogfish Head Brewery, shopping at the outlets in Rehoboth, taking in a movie at the Movies of Midway, walking the historic district of Lewes, Delaware’s first settlement, or strolling the boardwalk at Rehoboth (the younger ones will definitely want to tour Funland).

We believe you will enjoy the relaxing atmosphere as much as we do. Furnishings were recently updated! Our home has one queen bed, a bunk bed set, and a sleeper sofa which will accommodate 6 guests. Bringing bed linens, towels, beach towels are the responsibility of renters.

The bathroom has a standing shower with an additional outdoor shower and there is plenty of parking on the lot.

We are glad to assist in making your stay a 5-star visit.
We learned a long time ago that family & friend vacations were worth the investment; a small price to pay for wonderful memories and great personal connections.

About the area

Milton

Located in Milton, this cottage is on the waterfront. While the natural beauty of Lewes Beach and Cape Henlopen State Park can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can check out Cape May - Lewes Ferry. Midway Speedway and Lightship Overfalls are also worth visiting. Be sure to check out the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.

Our first visit to Broadkill
But definitely not our last. We wanted a beach getaway without the traffic and crowds you find further south and Broadkill fit the bill. This cottage is perfect for a couple a family or small group. The beds are comfy and the kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook meals. We loved hanging out on the screened porch playing cards and a couple of the board games provided. The beach is just a 2 minute walk and my husband is still talking about the pizza he had from the Broadkill store just down the road. The host were quick to respond to any questions i had and gave clear instructions for the check in and out process. I will definitely be booking this cottage again and recommending to friends.

Broadkill Cottage
The cottage is in an excellent location right by the beach, and easy access to Rehoboth and Lewes. The property manager provided us all the info we need in advance, and included things that we may want to see in the area. Would absolutely stay again!
