About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
At the intersection of waterfront and luxury, your vacation home awaits. Perfect 3,300 sq. ft. bay front home with fantastic water views from every room nestled in gated, 21 home community. Two master suites, upgraded finishes. Enjoy gas grill, multiple decks, whirlpool tubs, commercial grade wireless internet and lots of flat screens. Please go to "Amenities" tab, click and scroll down to: "360 Degree Virtual Video Tour" & "Interactive Floor Plan" to get best perspective of this extraordinary property.
This is home base for those who languish by the pool, want steps to the unspoiled beach or seek a water oriented setting. Come with high expectations.
The house is offered on a limited basis, primarily during the peak season and select holiday periods. It is maintained to the standards of a second home, not a public vacation rental. We not only maintain, but return a large portion of rental income each year to improve the home and our client's experience stay.
Start your day in the bay front, screened in porch area, enjoying your beverage while watching the waterfowl play in the bay.
A large kitchen with island creates not only an easy stop for breakfast, but a gathering place - coupled with the open floor plan, every seat in the public areas of the first floor enjoy the unspoiled bayfront view through four sliding glass doors.
A new composite deck system spans the entire rear of the home, making for the perfect barbeque lunch - of course, gas grill and propane furnished and ready.
Chaise lounges and bistro tables supplement the outside seating for everyone's use throughout the day.
Not one, but two oversized master bedrooms each with king sized beds and walk in closets are available to the guests - each with their own private bathroom.
Second floor, front bedrooms enjoy the tranquility of a natural lagoon within 50 feet of the home. Throughout the day, birds and other wildlife are seen in their natural habitat.
We hope we have thought of everything ... So our guests never have a disappointment, a beach buggy, complete with cooler, large storage area and rack with five beach chairs are available for guest use. While only 250 steps from the home to the unspoiled beach, you may also concede to the large, uncrowded pool located within a one-minute walk of the home. Plenty of chaise lounges, tables and sunbrellas along with professional landscaping offer a lazy oasis from reality.
The community supports only 21 luxury homes, so amenities are never crowded. Our home sits on nearly a one-half acre parcel, with large, professionally manicured rear year - perfect for volleyball or any family oriented game.
The proximity to the towns of Bethany, Dewey and Rehoboth are reachable by bike or by vehicle and support the lifelines of McDonalds as well as one of a kind bistros and casual, fine dining venues.
Delaware is home to tax free shopping and the three large outlet malls offer plenty of upscale furnishings, designer clothing (Michael Kors, Coach, Underarmor to name a few).
The Indian River inlet marina offers: - charter boat fishing - launch for private vessels and watercraft - a marina store where you can choose the catch coming off the boat, have it filleted and bring it home for dinner with minutes.
Expect more when you are our guests. We provide all paper products (paper towels and t-paper) as well as hand soap, dishwasher and detergent.
While we do not generally greet our Guests, we are personally onsite during turnover between Guests to supervise cleaning, make repairs as reported by departing Guests and deal with any unique matters so you begin your stay problem and care free.

We enjoyed a long weekend at this property with pretty close access to the beach and easy access to a quiet community pool. The house has a great deck with a large table for pleasant outdoor dining together.
We enjoyed our stay very much, everyone had a good time. The house is well located between Dewey Beach and Bethany Beach. It was great condition and a minor problem with an appliance was quickly addressed by the owner. The screened in porch was wonderful.
The house is spacious with lots of common living space, outdoor deck seating, and screened in porch seating, all of which we used at different times of our stay. Each bedroom has a bathroom which is also a big plus. The kitchen is stocked with the basics and the big kitchen table is terrific for eating as well as for just gathering. The property manager was accessible, responsive, and helpful both before and during our stay. We lucked out with great weather which added to us all enjoying our stay. What you see is what you get and this is a fabulous place to stay for a fun and enjoyable visit to Bethany Beach. Thank you!
The house was perfect for our family (7 of us which included 2 children ages 3 and 4). Everyone was able to have their own bedroom and bathroom and there were plenty of spaces to hang out if you wanted some quiet time. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need. The deck went around the entire house and the views were great from all sides. The beach was on the other side of Rte 1, so you had to be cautious crossing, but we never had a problem. The beach itself was very quiet and clean. We even were supplied with a wagon to carry both the kids and the beach chairs (also supplied) which made the trek much easier. The pool was very close to the house and was great. We pretty much had it to ourselves most times we were there. All in all, a wonderful place to stay. I would highly recommend staying here!
The house was nicely maintained, a well stocked and had quality appliances. We especially liked the generous amount of common area space inside and outside (deck & screened in porch) to accommodate our large group. The community facilities were also very nice, especially the pool. Views of the bay were wonderful. It was much nicer than any previous rental properties we have used. Bob was quickly responsive to any questions or issues that arose. The only drawback was the highway crossing to get to the beach was quite busy at times without a crossing light though it might have been worse during the July 4th week. Overall we were very happy with the vacation rental.
Home is beautiful, well maintained and has many high end touches. The owners were great to work with. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Bethany Beach!

This home was an amazing fit for our family
We loved this house, equipped with everything we needed. We used the pool, tennis/basketball court, and kayaked in the bay. Great location for a peaceful family vacation.

Beautiful home on the bay - perfect for group getaways
We very much enjoyed our stay at this lovely bayfront home. The house worked out wonderfully for our annual weekend getaway with four couples. Each couple had their own room/bathroom, and the Great Room/Kitchen/Living area was perfect for the group. We didn't get to enjoy the outdoor patio/dining area due to rainy weather throughout the weekend, but it's a lovely set up!
We really enjoyed our stay at Waters Edge - the house was large enough for our entire family - the deck and screened in porch was beautiful - the kitchen was well equipped - each bedroom has a private bathroom which was great and the upstairs master suite bathroom was especially great - the pool was lovely - my only comment is about the 250 steps to the ocean - which is not an easy walk especially with children - you need to cross a very busy road without a crosswalk to get to the beach ... you really need to drive for safety purposes in my opinion.

Thumbs up!
This home wa lovely and welcoming. We had a great time during our week at the beach. We love having access to the pool as well as the beach. Had a great dinner at Matt's Fish camp almost across from us on Route 1. Otherwise the kitchen had everything we needed for preparing meals at the beach house.

Superb Property
I booked this property for a long three-day weekend with friends. The home is in a beautiful location on Rehobeth Bay- just a few minutes away from the ocean. Bob does a wonderful job communicating about details of the property and any logistics vacationers should know. I could not recommend this place more.
We took our sons, grandchildren and my elderly mom to the beach the week of May 20th and really had a great time. Lovely, well stocked house, with great views was very comfortable. The neighborhood is safe and was perfect for teaching our grandson to ride a bike. The beach is 1 minute drive with ample parking. The homeowner was responsive and helpful. We would go again.
Our rental was an excellent opportunity to get together with our family after being confined for so long. The neighborhood felt safe and expanded our world. We rented kayaks from Coastal Kayak for the week enjoying the bay and wildlife. Our only dissappointment was the pool not being open. Hopefully the neighborhood association figured out how to open safely.

Wonderful, pictures don't do it justice
My husband and I and several friends rented this house between Christmas and New Years. The pictures don't do it justice! It's well stocked with a beautiful view, and the "feel" of the house is spacious, yet informal. The perfect spot for us to "commune" or be solitary and just relax and read.

Fantastic Family Getaway!
Our family enjoyed a tremendous week at Water's Edge. The house was spacious and well accommodated for our family of 10 (plus the new baby). Beautiful views on both sides, but relaxing on the back deck after dinner, watching the bay go to sleep, was a favorite activity of the week.
The house was convenient to the beach, and the pool/tennis courts were never crowded and presented a great alternative for the little kids.
From start to finish, the owner was extremely helpful and a sincere pleasure to work with - we were able to focus on enjoying our vacation. Thanks, Bob!
The photos did not capture how spacious and open the home is. Truly, this is a beautiful property. Stunning views thought out.
It was very clean.
The location is perfect.
We were able to go down to Ocean City, Fenwick, and up to Rehoboth with no traffic issues and come back to the quiet retreat that is this area.
Having the use of beach gear was such a help and being a very short walk (doable with over 4 children all under the age of 10) from the beach was lovely. We would book this property again in a heartbeat. The owners take great care of it and it shows.

The Kopp Family Vacation
Our family has always vacationed at the beach, since I was a child and I must say this was the best location for our family. Our family vacation consisted of a total of 7, 2 adults and 5 children, ranging from 7-16. The bed and bath accommodations were perfect. The rooms are very spacious, the number of bathrooms were plentiful. The location is perfect, the water view was very serene, the deck allowed for extra space and additional space for dinner time, however the kitchen also had everything we needed, including a table large enough for our family. The home was meticulously cleaned and maintained, there were extra beach chairs and toys and an umbrella, which was very convenient. The pool was a nice size, not overly crowded and was very convenient. I would highly recommend this home to anyone considering a nice relaxing vacation, but wanting the comfort and convenience of feeling at home. I will be booking again this year and every year thereafter. The owners were very accessible for questions and very responsive to our needs. The towel service was just a nice added extra. Thank you for allowing us to make memories in your home and at your beach.
