About this property

Delaware Beachfront Private Getaway on the Bay

Welcoming serene Delaware Beachfront cottage located in the heart of the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge (8000+acres). Beautiful natural beach with Delaware Bay and Atlantic Ocean views. Abundant wildlife, birds, and sea life. Property is sanitized and sparkling clean with basic amenities.
After years and years of study, we have come up with an all natural, eco friendly solution to common insects at the beach. We now have a new addition to our private beach paradise, a family of resident, Purple Martin’s to take care of all those pesky insects!
Free Wi-Fi! The Cottage has cold A/C and is heated during colder months. Enjoy surf fishing. Bring your own boat, jet skis, kayak, or Jon boat and beach chairs. Free Wi-Fi!

Fenced yard for dogs. Shower off the sand in the Bath(Shed)House. Laundry & bathroom are available in Bath(Shed)House. However, Shed House is Winterized during the months of, Dec, Jan, Feb & March. So no water usage, no second bathroom.

Awesome porch/great room, perfect for entertaining! Listen to the soothing waves or relax by the fire pit under a starlit night sky. Witness beautiful sunrises over the Atlantic Ocean and in the evening, see stunning sunsets over the refuge wetlands.

Go back in time in this quaint 1960's beach cottage. Enjoy the simple life! No crowds, no boardwalks, no shopping or restaurants on the beach. No stress, no worries. Private and quiet. Perfect artist retreat.

Located within 115 miles of Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington DC. Located 20 miles north of Rehoboth Beach. 10miles from Lewes Beach....

We had a wonderful stay for our anniversary weekend! Suzy is an incredible host, was so on top of communication. This cozy beach house was clean in a wonderful quiet area away from all of the tourist areas where you can really just enjoy nature. We feel so recharged! Still close enough to get quickly into town and enjoy restaurants, shops and mini golf. Our sweet old dog got to enjoy the very dog friendly beach. We can’t wait to come back with the kids!

Perfect getaway

My dog and I had a great time here. The beach is right in the backyard, and we didn't bump into any other people. The home is one of the cleanest rentals I've ever stayed in, and Suzy was very communicative. Would definitely come back again!

Overall - very nice- comfy beds- easy layout and great location. We are building in PH- and have stayed in several homes there- as we watch our dream come to fruition. If someone is renting this in the colder months- the main sitting area is definitely chillier- the electric fireplace helps- but just a heads up that it’s cold in that room- we also only had use of Keurig - but I believe a coffee maker and grinder are coming soon according to the host - but just double check before you start your drive:) We hope to rent again once or twice - before we can sleep in our own house! Thanks for having us! PH is such a special place! Oh- fenced yard was perfect for our older dogs who struggle with steps and seeing and hearing too :)

About the host

Hosted by Suzy Schurman

My family loves Prime Hook Beach. We have many fond memories of our visits and exploring the area. The kids are now grown, and their busy schedules keep us from returning to the beach each summer. We hope you will make this your home away from home each summer!
I have a new operations manager, Suzy Schurman who loves this property as much as I do. She has a lot of energy and is great with working with people. I’ve asked her to include a little about herself.

I am an Olympian, Mother, Wife & Animal lover. Just like many of you, life gets very hectic & challenging. My family & I vacationed at Ed’s cottage in Prime Hook and didn’t want to leave. We loved this secluded area & cottage so much we decided to purchase it. We want to carry on Ed,s tradition of hassle free, pet friendly & honesty. Ed & I will jointly share this transition so that I can get to know you all and make your vacation memorable. I look forward in seeing you here soon.😊

“Prime Hook, the best kept secret”

Why they chose this property

This is a natural preserved beach with no retail, hustle or bustle. We have a private secluded beach and a completely new fenced in yard for our animal lovers. There are farm stands, antique stores minutes away. We are close to all of the tourist resorts such as Lewes, Rehoboth, Bethany, Dewey, Fenwick Island, and Ocean City. We are about a 20-minute drive from the Cape May Ferry (you watch the ferry cross to Cape May from Delaware on the beach), and about 20 minutes to the Casino in Harrington. The best part of our beach when you are here is nothing seems close until you leave the property.

What makes this property unique

Our cottage is located steps from the beach. You can watch the abundance of wildlife as nature intended. There are no crowds...just wildlife and the natural world at its best! Go back in time in this quaint 1960's beach cottage. Enjoy the simple life! No boardwalks, no shopping or restaurants on the beach. No stress, no worries. Private and quiet. A Perfect retreat for families & animal lovers.
