We had a wonderful stay within walking distance of downtown Lewes. We regularly walked the few blocks to take advantage of the shops and excellent restaurants in town. The beach itself was just a short drive away. We appreciated the beach chairs and umbrellas that were made available with the rental. We did encounter a minor issue with the washer/dryer unit during our stay, but the host was very responsive and resolved the issue the same day. Great customer service - thank you!

A Great Choice in Lewes

Clean and well-equipped. In a beautiful neighborhood walking distance from Front Street. Very convenient for visiting Cape Henlopen State Park. Might be a little small for a family of 4 but perfect for us 2. This is the second time we have stayed there!

A Great Rental Home in a Friendly Town

This was our first trip to Delaware and we couldn’t have stayed in a better rental for our weeklong vacation. The home was quiet and comfortable and we loved being able to walk (or bike) to so many places including the beach, village shops, and parks. Between the Saturday Farmers’ Market and Lloyd’s little, very well-stocked, grocery store (both within walking distance) we were able to get all the food we needed for our stay. Lastly, we found Lewes to be a very friendly town that we’ll definitely want to come back to.

Great location, older cottage

This little cottage is dated and smells like moth balls. On two days of our stay, we came home after the beach to the cottage smelling like cigarette smoke. It does air our quickly if you open the windows and back door. The location is great - on a quiet street in the historic Lewes village. Safe and comfortable. I e rode our bikes to the bay with our kids and could walk to the village.

Great stay walking distance to historic Lewes

The house was small, but was perfect for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 young children). We spent most of our time on the beach (convenient drive to both Lewes Public Beach and Savannah Beach), so having an outdoor shower in the backyard to rinse off the sand at the end of the day was great. Walking into town took a bit more time with 2 small children, but even so it would take us no more than 10 min - essential for ice cream/coffee breaks! Also, walking distance to two great playgrounds (Lewes CanalFront Park and another closer to the house at the George HP Smith Memorial Park). We had a great time :)

Cozy, quiet, central!

Spent a great week in Lewes at end of summer. Perfect for a low key couple’s getaway It was a quick last minute booking so there was some confusion about getting the key code but owner was quick to respond. (Key entry info comes into email box looking like a lot of other VRBO promotional emails so that could be improved). Very quiet, safe area near downtow…great walking and biking into throughout the week to shop, dine. Kitchen could benefit from an upgrade and more amenities and supplies (just 2 dishwasher tabs left for the entire week.) Not fancy, but clean and adequate. Location can’t be beat if you’re looking for a walkable, bikeable quiet location in Lewes.

Clean, well-supplied, great location. It is located just outside the busy center of Lewes. It’s quiet and restful but conveniently close to restaurants and the beach. Dishes, lots of towels, linens, soaps, etc. were all available. My only minor complaint is a weak WIFI signal. It didn’t interfere with our enjoyment of our vacation.

Perfect weekend getaway

We were here for a lacrosse tournament and this was a great value for the money, much better than a hotel for the same price. The house is cozy with all amenities and conveniences of home. We were able to walk to the Farmer's market, playground, and Second St. shops. Very quiet street! While there, the air conditioning gave out and the owner immediately purchased a unit while waiting for repairs. Charlene is terrific - thank you, super service! We will be back next year!

Perfect beach house

Cute, comfortable, homey beach house. The house was very well-equipped with plenty of sheets, towels, dishes, plates etc. Having a dishwasher and washer/dryer in the home was a huge plus. Excellent location in-town in Lewes. An easy 15 minute walk to shops and restaurants around 2nd Street. And a very easy drive to beaches and Cape Henlopen. Owners are wonderful! We accidentally left an item outside when packing the car and leaving and the cleaners called the owners and the owners called us immediately. Would definitely stay again when visiting Lewes.

Little oasis

We booked this property for a long get away weekend. We never visited Lewes before so weren't sure what to expect. The VRBO is perfect for a weekend for a couple or family with up to 2 young children. The space is small but efficient and clean. Perfect for a couple looking to explore the area. Town was a short walk. The biking trails in this area are outstanding and the Cape Henlopen State Park is a treasure. We had so much fun getting away from it all with bike rides each day and visits to nearby establishments for tasting of spirits, wine and, most famously, Dogfish Head beer. Lots of fun. Highly recommend this property
