8.0 / 10.0
We were surprised and delighted how nice this property was including its convenient location to the nearby towns and other ocean beaches. We had a great and fun time here, good memories! Very comfortable space, furniture and beds were all very comfortable. Our group consisted of 5 adults and a 2-1/2 year old, plenty of room for everyone, house layout worked perfectly for us. Beautiful, private, clean beachfront that was so easy to access, just walk right out to it! Low tide teems with marine life and tidal pools, quite awesome to experience that. The large deck has stunning views of the water and plenty of comfortable deck chairs. Dining room table was more than big enough for all of us, we had great meals here. Appliances all worked great. I would absolutely recommend staying here, and we would be glad to rent this property again.
The only complaint was the place needs a good scrubbing. There was a nasty, grimy ring around the tub and the bathroom wasn't that clean overall. Dusty and dirty corners and windowsills. Our bedspread had stains so we didn't use it but the mattress pads and beds were clean. I would recommend a more diligent cleaning crew as rooms seemed to just get a basic wipe down; the silverware and utensil drawers all had crumbs in them, and the fridge had fingerprints all over it on our arrival. But we did an easy clean-up and really enjoyed our stay here.

This was our third year in this home and it was another wonderful time! We love how quiet this beach is—we set up our tent and chairs when we arrive and don't have to move them all week. The locals have become people we look forward to seeing again year after year--so kind and welcoming. You can't beach the nature you see here either ... this year we enjoyed observing sea cucumbers, a variety of jellyfish, hermit crabs, spider crabs, ghost crabs, horseshoe crabs, blue crabs, brown pelicans, great blue herons, seagulls, and sandpipers. We caught and released tons of croakers, and our neighbor caught and released a dogfish shark, which absolutely delighted the kids. We can't wait to come back next year!

This was our first visit to Slaughter Beach. We were ready to get away from "commercialism" and made the perfect choice when we chose this location. The house was wonderful! The furnishings and all the personal touches were so welcoming. We especially enjoyed the owner's original artwork! The mattresses were amazing! The other couple that vacationed with us as well as the friends that visited for a couple of nights during the week all remarked at how comfortable they were. The home was quite spacious. It was the most well laid out floor plan of any home we have vacationed in. With 2 living rooms and an expansive deck, there is ample room for multiple adults and/or children to have their own space. The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed. The wine/beverage fridge was a wonderful addition and was put to good use during our stay. We had no problems with internet connectivity and streaming.
As for Slaughter Beach and the Marvel Salt Marsh, they are beautiful! What incredible natural resources are encompassed in such a small & quiet community! We were completely relaxed from the moment we arrived and enjoyed every minute of our stay. We had a wonderful week and will no doubt visit again. The owner, Lesley, deserves AAA rating!

We've rented several houses in Slaughter beach over the years and this one fitted our needs well. Everything was good, communication was great and all very easy.
Thanks for making our stay so good.

The pictures of this property do not do it justice. It's was beautiful, comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners have thought of everything down to the smallest detail. The proximity to the beach and ease of using the walking path were so convenient. We were blessed with beautiful weather and shared some wonderful times with family. I cannot wait to return!
8.0 / 10.0
Nice, family place on a quiet uncrowded bay beach. Old school seashore decor. Nicer than the photos portray. Only downside — late check in (4pm) and early check out (10am), adjusting to the norms of 3pm and 11am would be sweet. Feedback to vrbo (not the owner) — hate the add-on fees, transparency in pricing during searches would be appreciated.

This was our second time staying in this home and it was just as wonderful as we remembered! Love having bedrooms on two floors so we can put the kids to bed downstairs (they sleep in one downstairs bedroom, we sleep in another downstairs, grandparents sleep upstairs, had one more upstairs room empty) then hang out upstairs for adult time. Can’t beat the beach view from the porch. House is clean, comfy, and lovely. Locals, especially the owners of closeby houses on either side, are so kind and welcoming. Love this beach and house for relaxing time for all ages.

This was our second stay at this property and we had a great time once again. We had three generations of family with kids (age 3 & 5) and we made life lasting memories. The property has amazing views of the bay, it is great place for young children as the the Bay has less waves and is flat at times like a lake; we will be back some time in the near future

This property had everything we wanted for our vacation. Great location right on the beach. The sunrises are so beautiful here. We saw porpoises, turtles, cranes, and horseshoe crabs etc. and the beach was never crowded. Our communication with the owner was always fast and pleasant! I hope to bring my family here one day. VRBO should be proud of this rental and owner!

The property had plenty of room and bedrooms for a large group. Well stocked kitchen, some entertainments, and great view of the water. The path from the beach toward an outdoor shower & then into the house with a bathroom and laundry was a helpful plus. Flies can be a bit of a problem at Slaughter Beach in the summer, but there were swatters available to help out when needed. Quick drive to many other locations and a peaceful place to stay. Thank you!

Stayed for an amazing week with my wife two kids (4 and 2 years old) and friends and their two kids of same age. The house is right on a quiet and beautiful peaceful beach and it is very kids friendly and safe. Perfect place for a family vacation. The house has everything you will need and is well equipped. We will be returning next year.

My family enjoyed this little slice of heaven right on the quiet beach. They were most happy with catching sharks at high tide right from the shore and building sandcastles. Rehoboth beach and Boardwalk were very easily accessible.
The kitchen was very well stocked and felt just like home.

We had a marvelous week. House is very nice and comfortable. It’s right on the beach, which is the Bay and that was great for the kids. I highly recommend this house to any family looking for peace and quiet along with beautiful views.

Slaughter Beach House
We had a great time! The kitchen was well stocked and the house was very clean. We walked out the back door to the beach and went kayaking and used our paddleboards. Convenient location for shopping and nearby beaches. The property has a great assortment of plants and trees. We will be going again!

Quiet beautiful spot on the DE shore
Overall everything was clean, organized, and handy; communications were clear, timely and helpful! Such a quiet and beautiful spot to relax. The four bedrooms and shared spaces provided so many places to be in the house as well as outside on the wraparound porch with big picnic table and chairs, bench inset front beach as well as the beach right there! Two minor things needing to be addressed - ugly pile of wood scraps and other debris next to wooden walkway to beach and knob on dryer didn’t work. We hope to return again!

Nice Quiet Get Away
The house was bigger and nicer than expected, and it was very nice to be right on the water and see it from the huge deck. The beach has lots of pebbles and horse shoe crabs, to be expected in Slaughter beach. It wasn't swimmable but made for nice walks. The upstairs furniture could use some love and updating but overall we were happy. It's a great quiet location and an easy drive to Rehobeth, Dewey, Bethany, etc.

Best Chick Trip Ever
Just a few friends on our yearly (13th) respite from work, husbands, kids, and grandkids…We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Slaughter Beach. The house was just what we were looking for. Close enough to take in the local sites (Rehoboth and Lewes) but just right for quiet days of walking on the beach, sunning on the deck, reading in the sitting room with a fantastic view of the bay and cooking in a well appointed kitchen. Sunrise on one side, sunset on the other – perfect!

Glorious deck!
The house has plenty of room. 3 different sitting room areas helped us to have space to relax. Read to the kids. Watch TV. All at the same time. Lesley is super responsive.

Perfect relaxing beach vacation
Thank you so much for our wonderful week at the beach! The house is even nicer than it looks in pictures - lots of space, multiple common areas, everything very cozy and beautifully decorated. Can’t get any better than walking down the deck steps right to the beach. Beach was just right for our small kids playing in the sand and the grownups to read and sunbathe. Ocean does get mucky at low tide, but we didn’t mind - awesome time to put on our water shoes and find teeny hermit crabs. Over the week we got to know the neighbors along the beach, everyone so friendly and kind. It was nice to recognize people on our walks but still have tons of privacy. It was a busy day on the beach when we saw more than two other people at a time! House has all the amenities you can need. So nice to have a washer and dryer so we can pack minimal clothes. Deck does not have any umbrellas or shading but because it faces east it’s no problem, sun is mostly at the other side if the house by the time it’s really hot. Thank you so much for letting us stay, we’re already talking about coming back!

Happy with house and quiet location away from busy beach towns. Beach is very calm with lots of “sea creatures” for young children to find at low tide. Lesley was very communicative and helpful. Overall great experience.

Week in Delaware
We had an excellent stay at Lesley's property on Slaughter Beach. The house fit all of our needs well, and we had no issues with cleanliness or mechanics. The beach itself wasn't exactly swimmable due to the Horseshoe crabs, but it was nice for wildlife viewing, and Rehoboth is only a short drive away.

Leslie,
Thank you for sharing your home. The house was nicely decorated, clean, and welcoming. There was plenty of space for everyone. We enjoyed kayaking, watching sunsets and sunrises, playing foosball and corn hole.
Overall, we had a great time! We would definitely consider staying here again in the future.
Best, Natalya

Loved the location of this house and proximity to the beach. Very private! The drain in the tub was broken which made bathing children tough.

Great stay at unique Slaughter Beach
The house is large and was quite comfortable for our extended family of four adults and two children. Its location right on the bay can’t be beat. The kitchen is well appointed, and the home is recently renovated. Would recommend for a group looking for a quiet stay on the water.
