Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful and peaceful time staying at Nicki and Brian’s cottage. It’s very clean and comfortable while being away from home. The location is so quiet, loved taking walks in the area. Very convenient to grocery stores and restaurants. This is our second time staying here and will be returning in the future.

Delaware U College Visit
We were only staying one night, as we were touring Delaware University for my 16 YO the next day. The property, inside and out, was spotless, well equipped, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable. Super safe neighborhood! We also greatly appreciated the restaurant delivery fliers in the kitchen, as we were all pooped from our drive up from Virginia.

I love that I am able to share this beautiful cottage with you! I am a wife and mom of 4. We love to travel and can be found at the beach most of the summer. Don't threaten us with a good time because we will be there! I am a born and raised Delaware resident so any requests for local recommendations I can certainly provide.

Why they chose this property

This property has been fully renovated to feel at home yet uncluttered. It has character and is inviting for anyone passing through, visiting friends & family or looking for a getaway.

What makes this property unique

This property sits on about an acre of land. It is on a quiet road but keeps you close to where you need to be. It is uniquely centrally located to so many wonderful aspects of Delaware. There is a funny saying around here that everything is 20 minutes away and it is so true!
