Great location

My family and I loved staying here. Perfect location on the canal and a 5 min walk to a beautiful beach. Since it’s in south Bethany you’re away from the crowds but only a 5 min drive to the main Bethany strip. We would definitely stay here again.

Great location!

First time visit to South Bethany and we had a great time. The house was as expected. Great having the dock in the back and a very short walk to the beach. Owner was very responsive and we had no issues during our stay.

Great Vacation Spot

The location is located on a quiet residential beach and it was a bonus to have a parking pass to be able to unload right at the beach entrance. Easy walk to the beach and the house was perfect and exactly as described. We enjoyed breakfast on the back deck every morning on the bay. Patrick was very responsive and helpful where needed. Beds were super comfortable and loved that we didn’t have to bring our bedding. We rented our towels from Gale Force Rentals and it was simple and easy process. Thanks for sharing Patrick!

Thank you so much for the review and stay. We've since replaced the gas stove with a new induction-based appliance -- apologies, again, for the inconvenience.

Amazing Location and Cozy Accommodations

We were within walking distance of the beach as well as a shopping plaza. The boardwalk and additional shopping was just a short drive away. The house was perfectly cozy and the outdoor spaces were our favorite. The patio with fire pit and seating along the canal was great for evening gatherings. Dining out in the sun room was amazing, especially with the ocean breeze coming through the large windows.

Multi family vacation location

Lovely location in S Bethany. Easy to get to Bethany, Dewey, Ocean City and Rehobeth. Grocery stores and great restaurants near by. House on canal with all needed amenities. Owner extremely responsive and very helpful. Kitchen is a little dated, but very functional.

The house was nice and the outside amenities were great

Overall, the place met our needs. There were a few hiccups - second floor shower leaked and the sink in each bathroom drained slowly...and then the dryer broke but was repaired in time for the next tenant. All is all, everything worked out ok for our group.

Relaxing Off Season Stay

My wife and I returned to this nice space in November. Bethany is quiet in the off season, which is what we were looking for. Very relaxing. The outdoor space and firepit is great and the living space in the house is also good.

Great outdoor space and convenient location!

Loved the outdoor space and convenient location to the beach. We enjoyed the large screened in porch and fire pit. I would recommend mounting the TV above the fireplace and adding a couch/chair for additional living room seating. Also, an additional set of dishes would be helpful since our group of 7 went through the plates at every meal. A beautiful week, great weather, and a lovely place to stay!

Relaxing and great location!

We were very impressed at the responsiveness of our host and the sweet location of the house. The dock and walking distance to the beach are both hits and I plan on coming back. The house was clean, exactly as presented online and the perfect getaway to relax! We appreciate all of the questions Patrick answered before and during our stay!
