The property was clean and had everything our family of 5 needed. I especially enjoyed the good quality appliances and well-stocked kitchen. David and Irena were readily available to help us solve any issues that arose. We plan to stay here again.
The house is great for a family trip. Well appointed kitchen and grill, laundry facilities, good communication with owners on check in and out. We enjoyed our stay.
Dave was a very good host and responded to every text promptly. The house and area were very beautiful and peaceful. I definitely look forward to staying here again.
I love everything about this place. The location, the decor, the amenities...Definitely great for family and friends. We love having bikes and beach equipment available for us. It is such a lovely touch. The only thing I noticed is the house moves a little bit since it is a stilt house. I am not used to it and thought there is an earthquake, haha. Otherwise, we have all amazing things to say, and the owner of the house is awesome and very helpful.
The house was clean and quiet. The bikes were rusted beyond use and the kayaks were full of spiders, mosquitoes and not near the water. So we were unable to use either.
We were happy to find this property for a few nights. My husband, my daughter, a few college friends, and me found plenty of room in this three bedroom home. And having a master suite downstairs and the additional two rooms upstairs gave us all the privacy we needed. The kitchen is well stocked with everything, including pots, pans, a blender, and cookie sheets. Pretty easy to get to the beach: my husband would drop the beach stuff off with me in the morning and he (and later the girls) biked over. If you're a walker like me, there's a walkable neighborhood across the street from the property's entrance (Black Gum Dr.). Having canoes, as well as access to the canal steps away, was a bonus -- something different to do on vacation. I recommend this property to families with kids of all ages.
Excellent communication from owner. He was very responsive and helpful. House appeared to be very clean. Neighborhood is quiet and well kept. Bikes/Kayaks are readily acceptable, but the kayaks will need to be rinsed off and we needed to put air in a couple of bike tires. Pump was in the closet. Kayak ramp entrance is in neighborhood, so it was easily accessible. You can definitely bike to beach from here, but it is a longer walk. We were able to find parking easily at different beach entrance points, but best to get there before 10am. Porta potties were by each beach entrance.House was definitely clean, but a bit more dated than we expected. Kitchen area could use an update with better cabinets and supplies/dishes/pans. Updating the sinks/mirrors in the bathrooms would be a worthwhile improvement. Maybe rugs by or under the beds in the bedrooms. I hate stepping onto a bare floor, but that's just me. The house is on stilts, and you can occasionally feel house movement when someone is walking around. You mainly feel it when you are lying in bed, but once you know it's there and what it is, it's not a major deal. It initially startled my daughters who slept upstairs, so just be aware. Not a ton of room for a lot of people in the living room/kitchen area, but the house sleeps a lot of people and has many beds at a good price.
This was my second stay at the property and enjoyed my stay once again. The location is quiet and close to the beach. The house has everything you need. Great communication with the owners .
Great house, amenities and location! The house was exactly as described and perfect for a beach vacation. Plenty of room and very clean in a quiet community. Bethany Boardwalk and beach were a short (5 min) drive away. Bikes were enjoyed by kids and adults - thank you for the wonderful stay!
The house was very clean and well stocked.The location was excellent,enjoyed kayaking on the canal and crabbing!!Short drive to many of the beach areas.Enjoyed the bikes as well!
This is a lovely cottage, and we had a wonderful weekend. The house is very well supplied and very pleasant to stay in. The owners are very helpful and accessible. Highly recommended.
The property had EVERYTHING you could possibly need. The owners reached out on check-in day to make sure everything was acceptable, then again on the day of check-out to make sure we had a great stay. No complaints at all from us regarding this property or the owners! Thank you!

The house was in a great community, filled with friendly guests and residents.
The property was clean and had everything needed for a stay. The assawoman canal was close enough to walk to. The kids enjoyed nature and fishing. With a five minute drive to the beach, eats, shoppes, and games...

We rented this lovely home for a wedding week end and stayed for a whole week!! The house was immaculate , equipped very well and included toiletries, cleaning supplies and other items (linens, towels) not typically included in other beach rentals. LOVED the bikes, neighborhood was quiet and provided shade during the warmest part of the day. To be redundant, Dave, the owner, was responsive, always available and extremely helpful
There was a problem with the air conditioning. I contacted the owner and he handled it immediately! That was more impressive since he was in France! The place was clean, quiet and close enough to everything to be fun and away enough to be relaxing!
This was our first time at Bethany Beach and overall this property made for a comfortable stay. The house was clean and we made use of the deck and grill daily. It was also convenient to have use of bikes and kayaks. We only biked the small development which sits off a busier road with no bike lane. The walk to the beach was too far for use so we drove most days. Thanks for a great stay Dave!
