Serene View

The house is very comfortable and in immaculate condition. The best feature is the relaxing view from the decks. Plenty of space for us and our adult children to be together and find our own space too.

Seaside beauty

This property was beautiful: design; artwork; furniture and natural beauty. I cannot imagine how it could be better. Everything worked, the host was involved and helpful. Lots of birds.

We had a lovely week with our two teenagers and parents at the bay house. Everything was as shown in the ad. The house is incredibly clean! You cannot beat the bay view, the hot tub, the screened in porch, or the "in law suite" (second floor) that comes with the property. The use of the washer and dryer was a major bonus, as well. If you're looking for cleanliness, space, a unique view, and the opportunity for family dinners, and game nights - this is your place!

First off Chris is a great host, he stayed in touch and we did have one odd thing happen with a mirror while we were sleeping, we called Chris and within an hour or so Chris had someone there to fix the issue.The house is very spacious, plenty of spaces to have solo time and group time, most of the vacation while at the house was spent in the kitchen, screen porch/sunroom, outdoor decks and hot tub. Everyone was happy with their sleeping accommodations. The master bedroom takes up the entire top floor and is super spacious. The upstairs bathroom has a stand up shower with dual sinks and another door leading to the toilet and an additional tub with shower. The animals are everywhere, from deer to herons to raccoons and a whole bunch of squirrels and birds especially Cardinals. The view from the back is gorgeous, you can watch some fantastic storms roll by, we say fireworks from a distance on 2 nights. This house was perfection, and if we travel to Delaware again, we will certainly look to rebook here!This house, host, and location are great! The location also feels like you're in a different world and is nothing like what you drive through before 9th st. It feels so private and special.

Bay Vista is a perfect name!

My children and I couldn't have been happier with the house and location. The view of the bay is truly amazing We preferred being a little secluded and private yet a bike ride away from beaches and the town of Rehoboth. The owner Chris was very helpful and welcoming.
