About this house rental
Bayside Home with water views from every room!
Our beach house “Searenity” is nestled in Prime Hook Beach along the Delaware Bay and Prime Hook National Wildlife Preserve located off Rt. 1 north of Lewes & Rehoboth.
If you’re looking to get away from the traffic, hustle and bustle of the beach crowds, this is your place to relax and embrace all that mother nature has to offer. Step back in time and discover our private, quiet beach community. The moment you enter Prime Hook all your stress and worries will immediately disappear.
Just imagine starting your morning with a breathtaking sunrise from the beach while sitting on the front porch and ending the day with stunning sunsets from the rear and side deck overlooking the preserve. This is where you will capture sightings of eagles, blue herons, egrets, and other migratory birds.
The beach is as natural as it gets. Enjoy the day just relaxing on the beach, kayaking, fishing, combing for sea glass/shells, watching the dolphins swim by and at night building a beach bonfire, so don’t forget to bring your marshmallows! You may capture a glimpse of the ghost crab that pops its head out of the sand or the horseshoe crab that may need some help getting back into the water. Keep in mind there are no lifeguards on the beach, but as you can see from the pictures the water is relatively calm.
Home has 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, with unobstructed views of the beach and preserve in every room. 30 second walk to the beach with direct beach access in front of the home. Kitchen is completely fully stocked with utensils/pots/pans/dishes, washer & dryer, outside shower, gas grill, hammock and some beach chairs. There is plenty of storage under the home and guests are welcome to bring their kayaks, fishing gear, bikes, umbrella and additional beach chairs.
There is also plenty to do in the surrounding area. Visit the historic town of Lewes, plenty of duty free outlet shopping, Junction Breakwater walk/bike Trail, Lewes/Cape May Ferry, Dogfish Head Brewery in the quaint town of Milton, Rehoboth restaurants and Funland boardwalk, Midway Speedway Park, Dupont Mansion Tour, nearby golf course, Cape Henlopen State Park, Cape Water Tours & Taxi, Delmarva Discovery Tours and Dover Downs Casino.
NOTE: 2 exterior cameras installed. Front camera faces the driveway simply to confirm there are no dogs as this is not a pet friendly property. The back camera faces the water for weather purposes whenever the house is vacant.
Guests to provide linens, towels, blankets, paper and soap products. Guest to sign an agreement to follow rules & policies.

The calm bay waters are perfect for children. The neighborhood is very quiet with little to no traffic. The house has many outdoor areas for the family to spread out. Eating crabs on the picnic table under the house was perfect. You could just hose everything down. Lots of great restaurants in Milton and Lewes.

We enjoyed the week at this beautiful home! Pretty beach, steps away & our favorite, the nature preserve! We loved sitting on the deck watching the wonderful birds!

What a wonderful place to recharge and reconnect with our family. Direct beach access allowed us to come and go between the house and the beach. Home was well appointed and kitchen was fully stocked with the tools that we needed. We enjoyed surf fishing, catching a variety of fish, shark, and even a sting ray. The surf is calm and shells abound. There are many horseshoe crabs that wash up due to this area being a horseshoe crab sanctuary. Flies can be an issue.
We particularly enjoyed the 3 decks on the home including the large screened front deck. The hammock was a great place to relax with the breeze from the bay keeping you cool. We look forward to visiting again soon!

Property was clean and cozy. No issues at all. Grocery store is close by. Definitely planning to book again!

This place was amazing! The house very clean and kept well. Kitchen fully stocked with everything needed to cook with coffee pot, kcup machine and toaster. All dishes for cooking and serving.
Master bedroom on 2nd floor had a very comfortable bed and served great as a room for a couple and a small child (as it had a queen and single bed w/ loveseat too). Twin beds in 2nd bedroom upstairs were good. The bedrooms on the lower level (queen in one and full in other) were very firm mattresses, the kind where you dont feel your partner move. Bathrooms were nice and love that the bathroom on the lower level had access from back deck so you could go from rinsing off sand in outside shower right into the bathroom to take a shower and/or change.
The residents were very friendly! The beach was great. beautiful sunrises. Quiet all day with only a few families out at a time. Great change from the crowded beaches and was great for our family with having little ones and not having to worry about losing them in the crowd.
Our only disappointment (but not really) was the area behind the house. We thought we would be able to kayak back there but it is all a beautiful wildlife preserve. So our misunderstanding was our fault but we were still able to enjoy the view with great sunsets and all the birds!

Nice breach home
Very nice house at a natural beach. Only thing was the bugs were horrible so bring lots of spray! Also some of the mosquitoes got into the rooms through the window air units. Nice place for a quiet relaxing trip.

Reset to state if tranquillity
This property was perfectly situated. Far from the madding crowd of beach towns, the site built against the edge of the wildlife preserve made it possible to view unimaginable sunsets. The dawn on this quiet stretch of the Delaware bay allowed my family and I to relax and hear the bird songs. I loved it.

Beautiful home
My family and I typically vacation at OBX. This year we wanted to try a different beach that wasn't as far as OBX from where we are located. We found this property and booked it immediately.
The house and communication with the property manager was outstanding. The house had everything we needed. The kitchen was stocked with cooking utensils and pots/pans.
It's 25 minutes from Rehoboth so we visited the board walk, which was a blast for the kids. They loved FunLand, the arcades, and shops located at the boardwalk. We also visited the town of Lewes which was such a cute town.
The nearest grocery store is 15 mins away. No pizza place would deliver due to the location. So the closest we found was 15-20 mins depending on traffic which wasn't horrible.
The beach is directly across the street which was amazing! The street is a deadens road so there was so traffic and safe enough for our kids to walk across without us. We are used to OBX where there is so much traffic so it's not safe to cross the road without an adult.
The only downfall, which I should have researched with the area was the amount of horseshoe crabs on the beach. I'm not sure if it was because of the storm that passed through before we got there but the beach has so many washed up. There was a ton of seaweed on the beach also. To the right of where we sat there was big rocks so we had to just make sure the kids didn't get to close and hurt themselves on it.
All in all, the property was amazing and we would book again if we ever visited that same area again.

The property was well maintained and adequately furnished
The area is quiet and after a long day visiting the tourist stops it was nice to return to unwind and relax with our family. Our grandson named the home the "Fun House".

House was perfect size for three families with kids. Had pretty much everything we needed. Decks were amazing and on each side of the house so you could see the sun rise by the Ocean and set on the bay. We loved having the screened porch because the mosquitoes were out. The ocean was right across the street which made it easy to transport the kids and equipment. Beds were so comfy! Everyone got great night sleep. Will be coming back!

We had a great time at this comfortable place. We slept 6 adults easily, enjoyed the well laid-out and stocked kitchen & had plenty of space to lounge either on the couch, screened-in porch or hammock in the shade.
This house is situated perfectly for a view of the wildlife refuge and the dunes to the beach. We watched the sunsets out on the back porch, and the sunrise from the screened porch.
There are two bedrooms up and two down, with shared bathrooms on each level. There is a picnic table on the side porch from which you can see both views.
We were a little chilly when the weather finally turned Fall-like and could not locate the thermostat, but the house warmed up quickly when we cooked dinner.
The beach is narrow at high-tide but ample and quiet at other times. There are biting flies when the breeze comes from the land-side, but bug spray helped.
We would highly recommend this house & Primehook for a quiet gathering of friends and family. We stayed put and were quite content to enjoy the house, beach, views and each other's company.

We enjoyed our yearly fall weekend trek to the shore. The community and location did not disappoint!

Beautiful property in a quiet, private development. There was never more than 2 families within sight while on the beach. Gentle waves, they are not knocking you over. Great for children to play in the water! We found some great shells. Beach is not manicured as a public beach is. There is seagrasses, sand coral, and toppled horseshoe crabs at the high tide lines. But, still plenty of clean, soft sand to play in and set up your beach chairs and umbrellas. Overall....Great stay and will definetly return if we are ever in the area again.

This was the first time that we stayed in Prime Hook. The house fit all our needs, the outdoor shower is very rustic but it served its purpose, It was such a relaxing, quite simple place. We loved the perks of being right across from the bay beach.
We also enjoyed the ghost crabs being busy all day, saw dolphins, a sea turtle, and saved a few horseshoe crabs by flipping them over.
We made sure to have a few campfires on the beach which was a perfect way to end our lazy days.
It was an exceptionally good vacation.

We had a great time, there were a couple days when the jellyfish were bad but other than that no complaints.

This is a cozy quiet cottage for a slow and relaxing vacation. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach and the numerous birds throughout the sound. Beach had a few unique characteristics: numerous horseshoe crabs, calm small waves, and several nettles(jellyfish) after a very hot and dry week. We had a great time but sharing so no one is surprised by this. We wanted a quiet beach for our small kids to play on and really enjoyed this last week. If you want to be around people, play loud music, or walk on a boardwalk, choose a beach 30 minutes south of here or more.

We were very happy with our stay. The property was clean and well cared for. The view off the back deck was amazing, from the birds feeding and flying to the beautiful sunsets every night of our stay. The memory foam bed was comfortable and there were varying firmness of pillows to choose from. There is plenty of outdoor gathering space but not a large indoor gathering space, so if you're looking to gather around the TV as a large group, this isn't the place for you. Each bedroom has its own TV. The kitchen was well stocked and appliances are clean. The bay beach is natural and quiet--this isn't a groomed beach. It is 100% residential area with very friendly people, but don't come expecting stores, restaurants, etc. The rental agency was very responsive and easy to contact. Our only complaint would be the sticky/tricky door locks! We hope to come again sometime! Thanks so much!
