Delaware Beachfront Private Getaway on the Bay

Welcoming serene Delaware Beachfront cottage located in the heart of the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge (8000+acres). Beautiful natural beach with Delaware Bay and Atlantic Ocean views. Abundant wildlife, birds, and sea life. Property is sanitized and sparkling clean with basic amenities.
After years and years of study, we have come up with an all natural, eco friendly solution to common insects at the beach. We now have a new addition to our private beach paradise, a family of resident, Purple Martin’s to take care of all those pesky insects!
Free Wi-Fi! The Cottage has cold A/C and is heated during colder months. Enjoy surf fishing. Bring your own boat, jet skis, kayak, or Jon boat and beach chairs. Free Wi-Fi!

Fenced yard for dogs. Shower off the sand in the Bath(Shed)House. Laundry & bathroom are available in Bath(Shed)House. However, Shed House is Winterized during the months of, Dec, Jan, Feb & March. So no water usage, no second bathroom.

Awesome porch/great room, perfect for entertaining! Listen to the soothing waves or relax by the fire pit under a starlit night sky. Witness beautiful sunrises over the Atlantic Ocean and in the evening, see stunning sunsets over the refuge wetlands.

Go back in time in this quaint 1960's beach cottage. Enjoy the simple life! No crowds, no boardwalks, no shopping or restaurants on the beach. No stress, no worries. Private and quiet. Perfect artist retreat.

Located within 115 miles of Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington DC. Located 20 miles north of Rehoboth Beach. 10miles from Lewes Beach....

Off-Season discounts are available. ***Weekend rentals available in October, November-December and March-April***

Great spot for a relaxing week with the dogs

We had a wonderful week here. We loved the big room with windows on the beach and the swooping and calling gulls. We saw a pod of dolphins going by once. It's a calm, quiet beach, great for walking and exploring. The fenced yard was a gift for our dogs, who love being outside whenever possible.Prime Hook Beach is a small residential community -- I walked every inch of it several times with the dogs. :-) We've stayed in Lewes in the past, and so drove there a couple times to visit our favorite restaurants. Groceries are about a 12 minute drive away.

Adorable House on a Quiet Beach

We really enjoyed our stay and absolutely loved the beach. The house met all of our expectations and was a perfect size for 3 adults, a toddler, and a dog. The beach was delightfully dog welcoming! Milton, DE is the cutest little town with so many cute businesses, restaurants, breweries and a sweet little playground.

Perfect relaxing getaway

This charming cottage is ideal for a peaceful getaway. If you’re looking to avoid crowds and noise, this is the perfect spot. It’s conveniently situated near Rehoboth and other beaches, offering a balance of accessibility and tranquility. We thoroughly enjoyed strolls along the beach and discovered fascinating information about the horseshoe crabs that inhabit the area. Highly recommended!

Peaceful Place for Rest & Relaxation

This place was perfect for us. The sunroom facing the dunes and ocean was idyllic. We had tremendous views and enjoyed sunrise every morning. We appreciated the cleanliness of the home and thoughtfulness of the host with things like coffee filters, etc. We look forward to booking there again. Thank you for sharing your lovely seaside home.

Absolutely perfect

Cleanist place we have ever rented. It was so quiet there. Loved the fact that there was a fenced in area for my dog. The beds were comfortable. Having a hose right by the door to wash the sand of our feet was a plus. Highly recommend this house. Owner always got back to me quickly with any questions I had.

Delaware Beach Vacation 2024

This is our 3rd time renting this beach front cottage. It is perfect for our family! We like that it is one story and has a fence for our dogs. We can go back and forth from the beach to the house in a few steps. The fishing was fun as was the 4th of July celebrations with the neighbors, the parade and ice cream social. We hope to be back again!
