About this house rental

A classic beach house updated without losing its soul. Two short blocks from the beach on New Orleans Street in the heart of Dewey Beach.

The best features, in the owner's opinion, are the screened front porch and the kitchen. You get ocean and bay breezes...and the mosquitoes don't bother you while you're cocktailing. French doors open from the kitchen and dining areas onto the screened porch, thereby bringing the outdoors in. The kitchen is big and modern and fully equipped. Great for entertaining.

This isn’t a rental full of cheap furnishings. The owner's philosophy is to provide a nice place and expect people to take care of it. This means no party groups, especially graduation parties (college or high school). The neighbors will call the cops. Violation of this house rule is ground for immediate eviction with no refund.

Please note: Owner doesn't provide bed sheets or bath towels for this rental. Each bed comes with a clean mattress pad, pillows and bedspread. Owner can provide info on how you can rent them and have them delivered.

Please note: Check-in is 3pm and Check-out is 10am. These times provide sufficient time to clean/turn over the house and ensure everything is ready for guests.

Please note: Off street driveway parking is available for 3-4 car, depending on size. On street parking in Dewey Beach is tough during weekends and is by meter/app or parking pass (can be purchased at Dewey Beach town hall).

Our family enjoyed our stay at the Porch House. The owner was easy to contact and helpful. The house is located in a fantastic location, a short walk to the beach and restaurants. We had a lovely time!

We had a lovely family vacation in this beautiful home. The interior of the house is exactly as pictured- clean, comfortable, brightly lit. There's one bedroom on the first floor, and four bedrooms on the second floor (double bed, and three rooms with twin beds). Note that one of the twin bed rooms is only accessible through another bedroom or through a bathroom. The house is very convenient to a main street, and walkable to restaurants, bars, and 2 blocks from the ocean. It can get a little loud out night with rowdy neighbors, but otherwise it was a perfect stay!

We have nine ladies staying over a weekend to celebrate a milestone birthday, and we all thoroughly LOVED this home! Beautifully furnished; very open floor plan on main level; LOVED the screened in porch; well equipped kitchen with LOADS of pots and pans, cutting boards, knives, serving utensils, etc. - you won't need to bring anything. Large driveway easily accommodated four cars. Only wish (1) the bathrooms had hooks or bar for hand towels by the sinks, (2) main level bath medicine cabinet so high some of the shorter ladies (5'3") couldn't even see the top of their head in the mirror (lol) and (3) a full length mirror or two somewhere in the house. Other than that, a wonderfully, relaxing and enjoyable home, which we all plan to try and rent again this fall! :)

Two straight years staying here and will be booking again. Within walking distance of the beach and the best food/drink spot, Dewey Beer Co. Attentive property owner. Clean home. Comfortable beds. GREAT porch. What more could you ask for!

Traffic on rte 1 was terrible on our approach to dewey. Property was very well equipped - a little cluttered. We walked to the beach and enjoyed our stay. Could have been a little cleaner and there was an occasional odor outside..we saw a cat go under the house - not sure if it was from this.

The house was too cool. The front porch is shielded from the street by bushes and trees. It’s great for privacy but even better for getting into vacation mode. It’s large, chairs and tables galore. The blue ceiling is quaint touch. The first floor is wide open, except for the second floor stairway. Again chairs and tables abound. One couple in our group was in their 70’s. This first floor bedroom was better than perfect for them. It was made better by a first floor full bath/shower.

Our stay was awesome! The porch was comfortable, huge eating table, kitchen amenities we needed and much more! Spacious laundry room to store our extra stuff as well. We loved the short walk to the beach. Lots of restaurants and bars close and the Jolly Trolly running to Rehobeth boardwalk. You also feel like you’re secluded and peaceful at the house! Four good sized bedrooms upstairs with one downstairs worked well for our girls weekend.
