We do reccomend bringing bug spray. \*The Cedar Creek Marina, with access to the Mispillion River leading to the Delaware Bay, is just minutes away and can be contacted for fishing trips.

You can marvel at the hundreds of bird species including the endangered Red Knot as they stop to feed on horseshoe crab eggs on their way north. Most people thrill at the spectacle while others are a little horrified by the crab's primitive looks. They are completely harmless but can cause the water's edge to be littered with their shells. \*Watch for the just-hatched baby turtles headed to the Marvel Preserve just behind us in early summer. Slaughter Beach is surrounded by wildlife preserves on all three non-water sides. Eagles and Ospreys can be seen nesting at the south end. \*\*\*Please note: Slaughter Beach is perfect for nature lovers and anyone that is looking for beauty and a place for peace and quiet.

Has just about evderything you need while on vacation. Hosts were easy to communicate with. Be ready for double beds in the bedrooms and queenish size out on the porch area. AC worked great. Nicely decorated with the mermaid/sea/beach theme. TV channel selection is very limited, but hey you are on vacation at the beach. Why are you even watching TV! LOL. The beach is not in the host's control but was almost always desolate for hundreds of yards in either direction, which was fantastic. Lots of horeshoe crabs! If you don't like busy, want some peace and quiet, and want to be a short drive to Rehoboth but dont want the 24x7 bussle, this palceis for you. Loved the surrounding farming land and adjacent homes with little to no signs of life while we were there. We are definitely thinking of booking again next year. Thank you, Nora! ##### Adam L.
