This house is exactly what we needed for a short weekend getaway with friends. Andrew, the point of contact, was spectacular. He gave us restaurant ideas, parking spots for the beach, got us an early check-in, and was always able to communicate easily with.The house itself was perfect. Enough space for small kids to play and the adults to relax in the spacious and air conditioned sunroom.House was equipped with the basics (linens, towels, etc.).It was only a short drive to the beach and with the help of Andrew we got there just in time for parking.I would highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing time just a few miles off the beach.

We're so glad this house was the perfect fit for your weekend getaway with friends. It's wonderful to hear the space worked well for both the kids to play and the adults to unwind in the air conditioned sunroom, and that communication and early check-in made things smooth from the start. Being just a short drive to the beach is one of our favorite things about this home, and we love that you found parking and made it there in time. Thank you for such a thoughtful review and for recommending this quiet, relaxing spot to future guests. We hope to see you again soon!

Nice home at the end of a quiet residential street. Easy access to the Atlantic Ave main road to Bethany Beach Boardwalk, restaurants such as Northeast Seafood Kitchen, DiFebo’s, Off the Hook, and Sea Colony area (east), and Giant food, Weis Markets, and many other restaurants to the west. Bethany Beach Boardwalk is about 10 min by car or 15 minutes by bike. The house has been nicely remodeled with a new kitchen, sunroom, and appliances. The beds are very comfortable, every room is clean, and space for storage. Outdoor space has a new grill and furniture for enjoying the evening. A great place to stay.

Spacious Home With Everything You Need

We had a great stay. The house is very spacious, exceptionally clean, and packed with amenities. There is plenty of room for large families or groups, with a great kitchen, large living space, excellent bedrooms and bathrooms, and a lovely sunroom that was one of our favorite spaces.The house really has everything you need for a weekend getaway. The kitchen is well equipped, the living areas are comfortable, and everything was clean and well maintained. The host also provides two e-bikes, which was a fantastic bonus and made exploring the area even more enjoyable.Another great touch was the beach accessories provided by the host. Having those available was extremely convenient and something you don’t often see at rental properties. Everything felt thoughtfully set up for a beach weekend.The location is also very good. It’s in a quiet area about 25 minutes from Ocean City and very close to Bethany Beach, which is a great alternative for spending the day. The house itself is very peaceful, making it easy to relax after a day at the beach.Communication with the host was excellent throughout. They were responsive and helpful whenever we needed anything. Pets are also allowed for an additional fee, which is a nice option for families traveling with pets.The only minor issue was the bedroom setup with the two queen bunk beds. We would have preferred two standard queen beds next to each other, but this was a small point compared with everything else the property offers.Overall, this is a spacious, clean, quiet, and very well-equipped property, with thoughtful amenities, great outdoor/beach extras, and plenty of room for a large group. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back.

Thank you so much for the wonderful and detailed review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the house, especially the sunroom, e-bikes, and beach amenities. We’ve tried to make the property as comfortable and well-equipped as possible so our guests can simply relax and enjoy their time at the beach. We also appreciate your feedback on the bedroom configuration, we were definitely tight in each room but wanted to have queen beds everywhere so the bunk queen was the only way to go in that room. I’m sure sleeping on the top bunk is not ideal except if you like that type thing 😉. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Our first trip to Delaware and we had a wonderful time! The property and host had a lot to do with that! The house is very clean, modern and spacious, with plenty of room for 5 of us to spread out. (We had family staying close by and ours was the place where everyone wanted to gather.) It’s located at the end of a dead end street, surrounded by plenty of trees so you also have some privacy. It comes with anything you could possibly need, including plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap etc so be sure you read the listing first before packing unnecessary items. Plenty of beach equipment that’s in great condition so no need to bring your own and that includes beach chairs and towels. If you’ve never been, Bethany beach also has umbrella rentals and though the house does come with two we found the umbrellas at the beach convenient! E-bikes looked brand new and were charged and ready. Property also has a nice outdoor area with plenty of furniture and a grill. Our first day was a rainy one and we spent most of our time in the enclosed sunroom playing games!! It’s even air conditioned!!The host was extremely helpful with lots of great suggestions before we arrived and during our stay!! The listing itself has plenty of great information but he went above and beyond. He even offered us an early checkin! He really thought of everything you may need and made us feel very welcome!! It felt like home and we hope to be back!

What a wonderful review to read, thank you so much! We're so glad this was the gathering spot for your whole family and that the layout gave everyone room to relax. It's great to hear the beach equipment was helpful to have available. We put a lot of thought into stocking the essentials and sharing helpful tips so guests can just settle in and enjoy the area surrounding Bethany Beach, and we're happy that came through. It truly means a lot that it felt like home for your first Delaware trip. It was great chatting with you.

Location:Beautiful wooded lot in a quiet street. We saw deer most mornings and a fox numerous times. It was the perfect blend of away from the hustle/bustle of Bethany but easily accessible by bike (and provided e-bikes) to the beach. Under 3 mile bike ride was part of the charm and didn’t have to pay to park as a result. Just up the street is a great produce stand with fresh caught fish and wonderful avocados for guac. Also rode bike to grocery and liquor stores. Everything was well within biking distance. Also, would highly recommend Bonkey’s ice cream just down the road. Longish walk, but walkable. Or easy drive/bike. The House:The 3 bedrooms accommodated our varying guest list. We had as little as 2 people and as many as 9 on our 3 week trip and it always felt comfortable. Great living room area with large comfortable couch. The spacious back patio became a great second living area for games, reading, and working. That’s also where we saw a majority of the wildlife. The master bathroom has a great walk in shower and the second bathroom was nice as well. The Host:Super friendly, helpful, and timely in communication. He dropped off a Bonkey’s gift card for the family and was on top of any little question we had. They also stocked the house with everything you could need for cooking and a nice touch with a drawer full of plastic bags for making lunches for the beach. Dog friendly was also a big selling point.Absolutely fantastic stay and would love to come back.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful and detailed review! It means a lot that you took the time to share your experience. We’re so happy you enjoyed the peaceful setting, the wildlife, and being able to explore the area by bike. One of our favorite things about the house is that it feels tucked away while still being just minutes from the beach, restaurants, and local favorites. It was our pleasure hosting you, and we’re glad the home worked well for your group throughout your stay. Thank you for enjoying your time away at our place! Hearing that you had a great time and appreciated the little touches makes all the effort worthwhile. We’d be delighted to welcome you and your family back anytime, and we hope to host you again on your next trip to Bethany Beach!

Our family had an exceptional stay! The home was impeccably clean, comfortable, and luxurious, with thoughtful amenities that made our vacation even better. We especially loved the e-bikes for exploring the area, the beach essentials were incredibly helpful, and the private road with a shaded driveway was a nice bonus. Andrew was a fantastic host who provided wonderful local recommendations and clearly cares about both his property and his guests’ experience. We made so many great family memories here and can’t wait to return. We highly recommend this beautiful home!
