A 5 star experience. Great house, location, and amenities. Would definitely stay there again. Karen is extremely accommodative and accessible to answer any questions.Don’t forget to bring toiletries, paper towels and napkins. We used “sheets on the beach” to rent linens. Otherwise house was fully furnished. Bring your own beach towels but there were plenty of bath towels that you need to wash before you leave. All in all a comfortable and attractive property.

Happinest was a great place for our family of 6. Rented our sheets and towels so we didn’t have to wash the ones from the house. Plenty of space to spread out. Short walk to very nice beach and great restaurants. Close to TOT Lot.

Our vacation house.

We all enjoyed our vacation at this house. It was just as described and very clean and very comfortable! The outside patio was very nice and was very private because of the wooden fence, Everything was in good working order and well maintained. Short walk to the beach. I hope to rent it again next summer!! I would recommend this house to friends/family We had a great family vacation!

Great home for a family or couples and pet friendly.

We rented this property for two weeks in the summer for our children and grands and our two dogs. Perfect for families, kids and dogs. Love the fenced yard and this property has a fully equipped kitchen! We returned in the fall with two other couples and our dogs and got to experience The Sea Witch Festival. Great fun. Five bedrooms and three baths!

Well-equipped and kid-friendly.

This kitchen was the best-equipped of any beach rental we've experienced. Since 2 of our 6 grandkids have dietary restrictions, we were cooking all of their meals. There were enough dishes, glasses, and cutlery that we did not have to use paper plates. The living space is actually larger than we judged from the photos, and we found it a very kid-friendly environment. We would definitely rent this home again.

Comfortable and Spacious

When I walked through the gate, I was surprised the house was so spacious! We instantly felt comfortable there. We brought our German Shepherd who was also comfortable. It was nice having the privacy fence around the perimeter of the house so my dog could walk around without being confined. There were five of us who stayed for the week and we didn't have to worry about being on top of each other, so to speak. The house had all the amenities of home. Karen was great to deal with and is easily accessible if you have any issues. I would definitely stay here again and hope to next year!

Great house!

This was our 2nd stay at this house and I know we will be back again. It was very comfortable for our family of 8 adults and 2 children plus 1 dog. The kitchen has everything you might need and plenty of plates/cups/silverware. The rooms are all a good size and we loved being able to eat our meals out on the patio. Our dog was very happy to sun himself on the patio and we didn't have to worry about him because of the fence. There were lots of beach toys and chairs for us to use, and we really appreciated the cart to haul all of the stuff. It's a short walk to the beach and boardwalk, and we even drove a few times and were able to find parking close to the beach and use the parking pass provided. Thanks for a wonderful week, and can't wait to book with you again!

Great Room Layout and Fenced Yard

The location is great in a quiet and safe neighborhood, 15 minute walk to the beach/boardwalk/Rehoboth Ave. Cute playground is only 5 minute walk. Easy to jump on/off Route 1. Room layout plus bathrooms are great and we loved the 1st floor living. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. Lots of beach chairs, toys, carts, etc. For dog owners - the fenced patio is great, but no grass. My only complaint about the house was that the pictures show grass in the back and a well maintained patio garden - and it was just pavers, overgrown plants, and bugs. Still a nice secure yard which was important to us, but not much of a hang out spot. Overall a great rental and would recommend.

Fabulous house, wonderful vacation

It's taken me far too long to write this review -- in part because of my extremely busy life, with four teenagers, three dogs, a boyfriend to manage and a business to run. ALL of which fit comfortably into this fabulous home away from home in Rehoboth Beach (two out of the three dogs, at least. I left the puppy at the kennel for his own vacation.) This house was PERFECT for my end-of-the-summer vacation at the Delaware Shore. In previous years, we have stayed in Bethany Beach at Sea Colony, because of the comprehensive nature of the property. This past summer, however, my kids wanted a different experience -- one that offered more choice and opportunity to do what they wanted to do on their own, rather than just going to beach or hanging out in a condo. This house offered plenty of space for everyone -- all of my kids had a bedroom that suited them, including my teenaged son, who retreated into the bedroom in the back off the kitchen and made it his "man-cave." The set up of the house was perfect -- all on one floor, with a great kitchen (fully stocked with everything we needed) and dining room and living space. The walk to the beach was a little longer than the kids wanted but I was perfectly happy with my daily walk to and from the beach, and we walked to dinner (and for ice cream) in town most nights. My dogs LOVED the local beach where they could run and play every morning, and the gated yard at the house was an fantastic added bonus. My dogs were able to hang out in the yard, drying in the sunshine every day, after their "shower." The owner was fantastic to deal with -- very accommodating to our calls and requests. Shortly after we arrived, we encountered issues with the internet and network in the house -- a major issue with FOUR teenagers who need to be connected constantly and the need for me to keep tabs on my business. The owner was immediately responsive, even offering to order and have delivered a new router. Thankfully, one of my kids was able to reboot the network and get us up and running. The only other issue we encountered was that the previous tenants had not put the trash and recycling out at the required time, leaving a pile of trash in the trash area that was smelly, blocked access to the beach chairs, and became our chore to deal with. I also recommended that the owner invest in new beach chairs for this season -- the existing one were looking a little worn. This was a perfect house for my family. I hope to visit again.

Terrific South Rehoboth Retreat

This is a lovely, spacious ranch located in a quiet and well-maintained neighborhood in South Rehoboth. The house was clean and well-appointed. It has a large front patio that is very private for entertaining or just hanging outside any time of day. The owners were very responsive and pleasant to work with. All around, great rental.

Great house and location for a large family

Our family of 7 adults and 3 little kids (an infant and two toddlers) had a wonderful experience at this house and Rehobeth beach. The house looks deceptively small from the front but it has 5 bedrooms and 3 baths with an open living space so there's plenty of room to sprawl and hang out. The kitchen is well supplied with utensils and plates, and small appliances (blenders for frozen drinks, Keurig and drip coffee maker). Although we didn't grill, there's one on the lovely stone patio. There were plenty of beach towels, chairs and a new beach cart to haul our stuff. It was a lovely walk to the downtown area which our two toddlers were able to easily to do and only a mile to the beach. The neighborhood was quiet, clean and guests were friendly. The semi-circular driveway was able to easily accommodate our 3 cars and we even squeezed in a 4th car by parking two on each side (and off the sidewalk!) and one in the middle when we had unexpected visitors for the day. We would highly recommend this house because it was comfortable, well stocked, and close enough to the fun and beach for us to walk. Thank you to Karen and Rebecca for sharing their home with us!!

Roomy and lovely

Stayed in this 5-bedroom ranch with 7 people with plenty of room inside and outside to hang. House is fully equipped with all essentials, especially in the kitchen. Housekeeping did a good job upon our arrival. Neighborhood is quiet and lovely, and a short bike ride, drive or walk to the beach. Helpful to have two parking spots and one pass for the street. AC works like a dream! Privacy of the property is great. We did not bring our dog, but nice to have the option. Also, the couches have pet covers, so if you don't have a pet, they can be removed during your stay.

About the host

Hosted by Karen Howland

We have owned our beloved beach house for 20+ years and have been Rehoboth Beach goers all our lives. Our goal has been to equip it and care for it as if we lived in it full-time. Keeping it maintained and comfortably furnished is important. We want our guests to feel at home.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property after many years of renting others in Rehoboth. Having stayed in many parts of Rehoboth, we particularly liked South Rehoboth. It has trees, but is not overly shady. It doesn't get any more convenient in terms of walking to all the amenities. It is ideal for a nice relaxed beach visit.

What makes this property unique

Our house has some unique benefits that make it desirable over others. First, we are pretty much the only property that has been allowed to have a six foot privacy fence facing the frontage. Dinners and drinks on the patio do not endure the scrutiny of those strolling the neighborhood. Second - I believe we are also pretty much the only house that is all one level and does not require any steps to enter the property. Although not a main concern when we purchased the house, it has been a blessing as we and our family members have aged.
