About this property

♦︎ Waterfront ♦︎ Pet Friendly ♦︎ Broadkill Beach ♦︎

“I have, as it were, my own sun and moon and stars, and a little world all to myself.” ― Henry David Thoreau, Walden

Clear your mind and relax in all that nature has to offer, welcome to Snow Goose, a bright open bungalow. Nestled among the evergreens and beach plums, just steps from the sandy dunes of Broadkill Beach. Two bedrooms and one bath, we have queen beds in each bedroom and a twin daybed in the main living area.


Broadkill Beach is located on the Delaware Bay, just north of Cape Henlopen and Lewes Beach. Broadkill offers public beach access for swimming, surf fishing, and boating and kayaking in the gentle waters. As a natural beach, there are no lifeguards. The community is surrounded by Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge and Beach Plumb Island Nature Preserve, making it a haven for nature lovers and bird watchers and other wildlife. Broadkill Beach is an official sanctuary for horseshoe crabs, the state marine animal of Delaware and a "signature species" of the Delaware Bay Estuary. Truly a magical place.

Rehoboth Beach is approximately 20 minutes south of Broadkill Beach.
The only business located in Broadkill Beach is The Broadkill Store, a general store sometimes referred to by locals as the "Broadkill Mall," which sells sandwiches, grocery items, bait & tackle, beach toys, souvenirs and homemade donuts on the weekends.

Historic Milton offers shopping, dining and Night life. The Milton Theatre, restored local venue offers comedy, music and eclectic performances. Dogfish Head Brewery always has a party, tastings, mammoth grill always cooking something tasty.

Broadkill Beach is a wonderful, quiet and charming residential beach community. This aIs a beautiful little house with a wraparound deck, dog friendly, with a few hundred feet walk through the dunes to the beach. The house is clean, easily cleanable floors and a basic but full kitchen, comfortable beds and easy access to the beach. There are beach chairs and a grill which we did not use

Wonderful

We had a wonderful stay with our family of four. The house was clean and as advertised. The deck and home looked like it had been newly renovated. It was a short walk to the water, straight off the deck. Our family loved it!

This is our 2nd summer staying at this beautiful beach house, and we hope to go again next year! Bring your food and drinks and there's no reason to leave. As a beach lover with a dog who loves the same, this place is a gem. Quiet beach, easy swimming, and beach access right from property. Something we didnt take advantage of last year but LOVED this year, was the ourdoor shower! Thank you Terry!

The house is adorable and in a great location . The beds were super comfy but supplying my own bedding was a hard task since i came from WA state. The kitchen could use some small additions to make cooking easier. A cutting board, basting brush, tongs,plastic pitcher, carrot peeler all availabe at the dollar store. The beach was great even if mother nature did not cooperate. Oh the outdoor shower was great but no light?

This home looks just like the pictures. It was clean and welcoming. The care that the host has put into the home shows. I love that it is pet friendly. My dogs enjoyed their vacation at Snow Goose and I think they were a little sad to be leaving the beach (they are labs). Kitchen was well stocked and there were a few spices, sugar, coffee,k-cups and plenty of cleaning supplies. The pots and pans were fine for what little cooking we did. The biting flies are real and there were several fly swatters in the home. We had the beach pretty much to ourselves the entire week. We will definitely be back.

Great little beach house

Excellent place for a couple or a small family who are just looking for relaxing days at the beach. The little house has just about everything you need including a great deck for evening sitting. TIP - Bring lots of bug spray, Broadkill is know for it biting flies.
