About this house rental
Our home is a classic beach house just a short walk (3 blocks, 7 minutes) to the beach and boardwalk and near the trolley stop. Oakwood Street is a wide, open and private street; our lot is large, open parking (5+vehicles/grass is OK). Guests enjoy the expansive front porch and huge backyard deck. They tell us it feels like a home away from home.
We bought the home from the ex-mayor of Bethany who designed and built the home in the 1980's. We remodeled and expanded the house in 2019... It is known as "the cedar house".
Our house is ideal for family a summer beach vacation and non-summer get-away. Minimum age to rent is 25...this is a family home and family beach town. Please no senior week requests.
Our home is right near the beach and town yet still has a private, uncrowded atmosphere that makes for a wonderfully relaxing vacation.
Sheets and towels are not provided.
Welcome!

The house was HUGE and recently remodeled, clean and well-stocked. Lots of space for two families with four young kids. The owner was easily reachable via the VRBO app, but would have been nice to be able to reach the property manager quickly by cell phone/text. We would definitely stay here again!

The house was great with plenty of room for our group.

In an area that is being overrun with huge houses it's harder and harder to find a good house that is still affordable for 2 families but also functional. The amenities on hand were great and the place was very clean.

We truly enjoyed our trip to Bethany this year. The house was close to the beach and town. It was spacious and very comfortable. We were a party of 7, I would recommend the "cedar house" for any family vacation.

Third year staying here. Never disappointed

Multi-generation beach trip and the house met all our needs. It is updated and well equipped. The beach is a .4 mile walk but the resident parking tag allowed us to have one vehicle take all the “stuff” and park very close to beach access. We are an active family that didn’t mind the walk.
We had a great week!

We had a great stay at this lovely home! Gail was incredibly easy to communicate with and very responsive. We had an issue with the AC and she sent someone over right away and had it fixed quickly.
The home is lovely, and though we wished it was just a tiny bit closer to the beach, the walk was manageable and the distance to the town center was also great.
Beautiful and well-stocked home!

The house was a perfect layout for our family with bunk beds and twin beds for the children and king or queen for the adults.
Plenty of room in the open kitchen-dining table and sitting area with another large room for tv, sitting area and another table.
Although it was very warm outside the front porch was an inviting place to sit. The house was wonderfully cooled by central air conditioning.
Gail responded quickly to any correspondence both before and during our stay. The entry process was very simple.
Definitely recommend this home!

Spacious and very comfortable, very responsive owner. Loved having the wagon and beach chairs for the short walk to the beach. Especially liked the updated areas.

The house itself is beautiful but the best part was all of the different sitting spaces. We had multiple families for vacation and it never felt like we were on top of each other. Gail was very responsive and helpful! Highly recommend !!

Beautiful well-appointed house in Bethany
From the beginning, the house was well appointed and had more than everything we needed to have a wonderful time at the beach - beach chairs, bikes, beach toys. The owner was very responsive and provided very good details about check-in, etc.
The only thing I will say is that we were 3 families so it would have been nice to have a bathroom in both of the king bed rooms.

Beautiful week at Bethany Beach!
We absolutely loved staying at Gail’s beautiful house. It has the perfect amount of bedrooms and bathrooms so all 9 of us were very comfortable. The living space also offered amble room to hang out and eat together. The house itself is very updated with a great screened in porch in the front.
The only negative (there was one!) was that the house is on a corner and the Main Street can be pretty noisy in the morning. The walk to the beach took us about 7-10 minutes or so each way but they had a cart to easily bring all of our gear. The walk into Bethany’s little downtown was also very pleasant and quick!
When we return to Bethany Beach we would definitely stay here again!

We had a 2nd great stay here
We love the location, it’s close but not too close, and the house is filled with all you can possibly need for a beach trip. Strongly recommend this house.

Lovely home near the beach!
Property is newly renovated and lots of space to gather for our family! Really enjoyed the screened front porch for dining and not too far from the beach. Home away from home and very clean!

2nd year
We’ve come two years in a row now and love staying here. It’s a wonderful layout for family and friends. They have everything you need for the beach in the way of chairs, boogie boards, etc. and the home is nicely appointed with plenty of room and outdoor space.

Great place for all
This was a great property. Easy to get to, great location. The space was beautiful, open, and very accommodating for all of us. We spent much of our time on the screened-in porch and truly enjoyed every moment of the stay

Absolutely perfect
We loved the location, not too close, and definitely not too far, from the beach and boardwalk. The house itself is beautiful and very new inside and out. There is lots of beach stuff in the garage. Lots of room for everyone in our group. I will definitely try to stay here again.

Great Vacation
Gail was very easy to communicate with and super responsive. Their house was perfect for our families. A lot of living space, open kitchen and a great front porch. It’s on a nice street and a great part of the beach. The walk was a little long just because we had toddlers with us but VERY easy 3min drive with ample parking!! We had a great trip.

Week in Bethany Pines
We had not stayed on this side of Bethany before but were very pleasantly surprised with how much we like it. The walk to her house is easy and with a parking pass it is great to drive chairs down as there is residential parking next to beach. The house is well stocked with beach chairs and umbrellas. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. Highly recommend the house. It is spacious and recently renovated.

Perfect size home walkable to the beach
My family of 4 adults and 1 two-year old stayed here for a week in July and had a great time. The screened in porch was fantastic (especially on rainy days). The house was fully stocked with backpack beach chairs and beach toys. The house was very spacious and we never felt cramped. You do have to cross route 1 to get to the beach but it was never an issue for us..it was either a 5 minute drive or 10-15 minute walk to both the beach and downtown bethany. The location was perfect other than the fact that the house resides on Kent Ave which I would consider to be a busy street. You do hear cars driving by when you are inside of the house (mostly from the bedrooms upstairs unfortunately). We did get used to this but it was definitely noticable. Despite this, the owner was very responsive with a few other concerns we had initially and I would recommend this property.

We had a great vacation. House for comfortable and we had plenty of room for everyone.
We loved Bethany Beach and we will more than likely return someday. The house was very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We also appreciated the beach equipment in the garage. The only thing that we would have liked better is if we were a little closer to the beach.

Great time
The house was clean, well laid out and close to the beach. We were there with my son, his wife and my two grandchildren and there were lots of books and games. The kitchen was large and well equipped. There were also lots of beach chairs, boards and a bicycle which we used. In all it was very close to the shops in Bethany, to restaurants and to the beach so we had a very good time.

Great family vacation
Overall the house is in great shape and well maintained. Convenient location, easy walk to the beach and boardwalk. Quick drive to food store. Nice family atmosphere to the town. All my kids had a blast.

A good family vacation choice
We had a wonderful week with our family. The house is very spacious, and an easy walk to a beautiful beach. We enjoyed the biking and beach (especially the 4th of July fireworks).
Everything we needed was right there, and in good condition. I especially appreciated the lack of "personal clutter" in the house. It felt more like our own home during our stay.

Good value for the money
We enjoyed our stay at this rental. It was a good value for the price. We had nine adults staying in the house and would have had trouble fitting any more people. It was a short walk to the beach and close enough to downtown Bethany, the trolley and local stores to make them accessible. We enjoyed many dinners on the large shaded deck in the back.
