About this property

Prime Hook Retreat - Amazing View of the Refuge - Beach Access Across the Street

  • Newly available in 2023. See our other Prime Hook property at I.D.#1460435.

    Prime Hook Retreat is a spacious four bedroom two bathroom house that sits directly on the Prime Hook Wildlife Refuge. The house is open and bright with views of the Refuge from the second story living room, balcony, and all four bedrooms. From the front of the house, enjoy the view of the Delaware Bay in the fully enclosed sun room.

    This house has plenty of space to spread out! The large sunroom has comfortable couches to enjoy the view of the bay or an afternoon nap. A game table with an assortment of board games and puzzles for fun with family or friends. Or just sit back in one of the chairs and read a good book. The living room has a beautiful view of the marsh with plenty of seating to socialize or watch a movie. Seat the whole family at the large dining table for dinner or games. Or if you like, enjoy that meal on the front patio under the sunroom.

    A laundry and full bathroom are on the ground level along with an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach.

    Located in the Prime Hook Wildlife Refuge, this quiet community is away from the hustle and bustle of crowds and traffic. Enjoy the wildlife, star filled night sky, and wide open sandy beach.

    Get the best of all that Prime Hook Has to offer from this house sitting directly on the wildlife refuge and beach access directly across the street. Watch the sun rise over the bay and set across the marsh.


    Only 2 1/2 hours from Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington DC, and 25 - 30 minutes to the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk, beautiful ocean front Cape Henlopen state park, and historic Lewes. Outlet shopping, fabulous restaurants, and amusements are all a short drive away.

    Sleeps 8 (or more with owner approval) people on two full beds, 1 queen, and two singles. Linens and towels included.

    This is a pet friendly house allowing one pet with additional cleaning fee. Additional pets may be allowed with owner approval.

Property was exactly as described in the listing. Super clean, amazing views, and great spaces for relaxing! Location was great - quiet private beach but less than an hour from the more commercial beach towns and historic areas. My husband and I loved our stay.

You’re never sure renting a place based off pictures, this place was exactly like the pictures. Very clean and welcoming. I was a little worried about being so far from everything, but I worried for nothing! There was everything we needed in either direction for a short 20-30 minute ride. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. The sunset over the preserve was absolutely beautiful. The area was quiet with very little to no traffic. I will definitely rent again.

Retreat is an accurate description of this property. It's very spacious and is adjacent to a wild life refuge. It was very quiet. One thing that really impressed us was how many stars we could see in the night sky. Across the street is what I would describe as a natural beach. We walked over 5 miles one day on the beach without encountering any other people. The house was clean and features many amenities including a full size air hockey table in the game room.

The hosts were great, the place was very clean, the location was great. We had a lovely Thanksgiving weekend there. The only surprise was that the second bathroom was not located on the "living floor" where all 4 bedrooms are located, but on the lower level. With 6 people, this was not very convenient.

Fun, family stay at the beach

The house was a great size and nicely laid out with many open spaces for all of us. We loved the sun room and spent a lot of time there working on puzzles and playing games and just relaxing. It also had all the tools and items we needed for daily use. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Slice of heaven!

Such a beautiful spot between the wildlife refuge and the Bay! Very comfortable house with everything we needed, spectacular sunsets and quick walk across the quiet road to the beach. Owners were responsive and helpful. So nice to be able to have our dog with us. We’ve stayed in several houses on this stretch of Prime Hook and this was our favorite.

Beautiful and Dog Friendly

Prime Hook is a beautiful place to stay. The sunsets are stunning and the wildlife refuge is peaceful. The beach is unspoiled and dog friendly. Nearby restaurants are dog friendly too. The location of this house is perfect with gorgeous views both of the refuge and the bay, and the beach is a minute away. The house is large, comfortable, and exceptionally clean. So nice to have linens included and beds made. Our family had a great stay.
