About the host

Hosted by Julie Derrick

Host profile image
We are a family of 5 that loves travel and the beach! We rent this home but also use it. Any day spent by the beach is a good day! My kids spent hours flipping over the horseshoe crabs or collecting shells. The expansive beach makes for a delightful sunset beach walk.

Why they chose this property

Broadkill beach has a variety homes and lots of personality. We love the serene calm beach atmosphere without all the hustle and bustle of the neighboring beach towns. But, great restaurants and activities for the kids are just a short drive away!

What makes this property unique

You can hear the ocean waves from the front porch. The short one block walk to the beach is delightfully beachy with a sandy road and houses on stilts. Truly relax and unwind on this getaway.

Our cozy beach cottage sleeps up to 6, but still feels comfortably spacious when some time in the kitchen or front porch. Front porch hanging is the quintessential Delaware beach past time.
