For the second year in a row, a group of my friends and I (all 30-ish professionals) enjoyed a long holiday weekend here. The house is less than half a block to the beach and stocked with beach chairs, so it was easy for any of us to wander over to the beach whenever we liked, alone or in groups, and it didn't have to be a big production. We enjoyed the beautiful weather on the house's four decks (some sunny, some shaded, some breezy, some on the lee side), as well as the easy access to the network of bike routes (half a block away) and the convenient-for-bikes storage room. The house is in a quiet area a couple miles north of the Bethany Beach town center---that was perfect for us, because we had a blast cooking and grilling at the house. Several members of our group never left the vicinity of the house & beach, nor did they want to. It was extremely low-key and relaxing, and I think we all got a chance to catch up on our reading. A typical day: coffee on the deck, biking in the morning, afternoon at the beach, cocktail hour, grilling dinner, then games and drinks on the decks. The house made it easy to do all of that!
The seven of us fit comfortably into the 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, and the house was clean and as advertised. I would say that the house actually feels more open and airy than the photos indicate---we got a great cross-breeze. Because the owner was very flexible with regard to check-in and check-out times, we were able to leave after the worst of the holiday beach traffic. All in all, we thought that the house worked very well for us, and we had a great time. Well enough that we came back for a second year! We highly recommend it!
