Perfect Beach Getaway

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The property offered great Wi-Fi, central air to keep us cool and comfortable, and plenty of privacy. The best part was being just steps away from the beach — it made our mornings and evenings so relaxing. Scott, our host, was extremely communicative and helpful, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Everything was exactly as described, and I would definitely stay here again.

My family came in for a wedding in Dover, so we thought it more convenient to rent a house for the weekend. The house is picturesque, comfortable and clean with lovely decor. A coffee bar and a bottle of wine were waiting for us! Such thoughtfulness. Rachel and Jim answered all questions promptly. Across the parking lot is an eatery with excellent seafood and a lively night life. Bowers Beach on the Delaware Bay is a short walk away. We had an enjoyable, relaxing weekend.

Great location and house

In town for a lacrosse tournament and being only 12 minutes from the fields was amazing! Owners over-communicated and were super accommodating. Able to walk across the street and grab a drink and dinner at JPs. Highly recommend!

Perfect rental for sports parents

Our family of 7 stayed in this beautiful home while attending my daughter’s field hockey tournament at DE Sports Turf. Everyone was blown away by how clean, spacious and well organized the house was. We had room to spread out, cook and relax between games, and everyone rested well in the peaceful rooms. We will absolutely be back again next year!

About the host

Hosted by Scott Rider

Host profile image
My wife and I love our Bowers Beach house and know you will too! If we can ever help with anything during your stay please don’t hesitate to reach out! There is so much to do and explore in our little town and we are excited to share it with you!

Why they chose this property

You will quickly discover the charm of this quiet, yet fun beach town you've probably never heard of! From the less crowded beaches, to the outdoor bar and food truck steps from the porch, to JPs fresh and famous seafood, to the bait shop and kayak rentals that you can walk right into the water, everything you could ever want is just a stone's throw from the front porch! Please reach out, we would be happy to share our favorite things about Bowers!

What makes this property unique

My wife and I often find it hard to leave our front porch, and we think you will too! Enjoy outdoor dining while listening to the waves crash onto the beach or just relax for evening cocktails on our comfy outdoor furniture while you watch the beautiful sunset. Bad weather outside? Fear not! Once you cuddle up on our oversized couch for a movie you will find that that is hard to leave too! We had our guests in mind when adding amenities to this house and you will find everything you'll need to feel right at home.
