This was perfect for our group of 7 adults. The bathroom updates are beautiful. We ate all our meals in the screened in porch and had sunset cocktails on the deck. The kitchen is very well appointed. It was a short walk to the beach which is not crowded at all on weekdays as it is south of the boardwalk area. The kayaks were fun to take out on the canal through the waterways. I highly recommend this rental!

Close to the beach Close to things to do Great activities at the house Kayak. Ping pong etc Amazingly few to zero bugs at the beach Great house no issues whatsoever

Two weeks in this private, waterfront home could not have been more enjoyable. Sunsets, kayaking, bird-watching from the porch ……all within a few minutes from the beach.

Great rental for the week, we will definitely be renting here again

This is a very nice property in South Bethany. This area is very quiet and away from the hustle and bustle. We've stayed here twice and the house has had some updates in 2022, including nice new bathrooms. Last I checked these were not shown in the photos for this listing. All furnishings are comfortable and there are many different spaces to use, inside and out. We very much enjoyed sitting out on the deck and using the screened portion of the deck - very relaxing space to hang out. A couple things to note- It's not easy to get in and out of the kayaks onto the dock if you have any agility or strength issues. There are no handles to grab or steps on the dock to assist. We always drove up to the community parking area to walk across to the beach, we found the walk from the house to be a bit too long/ far for us. The walk from the parking area is fine.

Great house. Great location. We had a blast. House is well appointed and very comfortable for our family.

Good property in need of some TLC. The dock should be replaced. The decking is loose in multiple locations and is dangerous. The screen room is nice. The screen door needs some work to open and close. bikes and kayaks were great addition. A nice place to stay, good location, nice quite neighborhood.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was tastefully decorated in beach decor and well equipped. After a wonderful day at the beach (only a 10-min walk away), we loved coming home to the relaxing view by the canal. We were amazed at the variety of wildlife we saw everyday. The screened in porch was well loved by the entire family from breakfasts to evening games. The local management was very quick to remedy the air conditioning situation in the master bedroom. In less than 2 hours, we were 100% taken care of.

Spent a week with family; having the kayaks was awesome! We had a great time and can't wait to stay here again.

It was a great time staying in this beautiful home

Great house, nice community. Thanks for use of bikes and kayaks, very nice. The walk to the beach is a bit challenging, even when using the neighborhood parking area, especially for those not in those young adult years! The upstairs sitting room that doubled as a bedroom for our young adult sons was not very cool, it could stand its own air conditioner unit like the one in the master bedroom which is wonderful! Kitchen is very well stocked with the exception of enough forks and spoons. Nice remodel to the kitchen and bathrooms. Overall a great place to stay!

Two complaints: basement bathroom wasn't clean and the central air for upstairs didn't work properly. The upstairs was quite warm the whole time. The ac issue is the reason for 3 stars. Outside deck area was very nice and peaceful. Spent quite a bit of time on the deck.

Doors were broken, gas grill didn’t work properly and it looks like the back porch area was going to be enclosed at one point but it was never finished.

Well maintained house in a quiet neighborhood with great sunsets and peaceful views. Beach access could be a little better (my sister in law was staying in another house in the same neighborhood and they had some permits to park close to Rt. 1?) but the stretch of beach... once you hiked to it, was great, practically private. Well equipped kitchen (wine fridge and real glassware is a nice touch) and a good selection of beachware. Also the kayaks were great. Our issues: The house definitely needs some mosquito/bug control. Made the outside areas hard to enjoy, and they constantly swarmed the cars and back deck. We also had a few maintenance problems during our stay (Glen took care of the major one pretty quickly). Another thing to note. Don't forget to bring your own sheets and towels. YES, it's in the contract. I suggest that the owners/Glen include this as a reminder in the "welcome" e-mail OR offer to coordinate a linen package for an additional fee. We made do thanks to the generosity of the owners who dropped off some towels and the Rehoboth Bed Bath & Beyond.

Our family had a very enjoyable stay at this home. The location was terrific being in South Bethany and right on the canals. The view from the deck across to the wetlands area was beautiful, especially at sunrise. A favorite spot was sitting out in the comfortable chairs on the deck with morning coffee or evening glass of wine. Access to the state park beach is a walk across route 1 and through the dunes. Perfect for our family, but something to consider if you tend to bring a lot of gear to the beach with you. Amenities were much appreciated, especially the kayaks and bicycles which are all in excellent condition. The ping pong table was fun too! The house was clean and well cared for. The layout was great, allowing for comfortable sleeping (comfortable beds!) and spaces for people to be together or find a little private time. The kitchen is large and well appointed, making meal prep and dining easy. You have options to eat inside or outdoors - which is great. Screens would have been nice on the outdoor deck, to make sure people don't get eaten while eating. The mosquitoes were busy. The only reason we left off one star is that a few things in disrepair which caused some inconvenience. The dishwasher and grill were not working properly, and there were some nail pops on the decks that had the potential to injure little feet. Those inconveniences aside, our experience was excellent and we highly recommend this home if you want to have a lovely vacation in a beautiful spot. The owners of this property obviously love their home - and are extremely thoughtful and gracious in sharing their space through VRBO.

We had a wonderful week in this comfortable house. Everything we needed was available -- including bikes and kayaks. We enjoyed walking and biking to the beach, but our favorite activity was kayaking in the marshes to watch the birds. We also took some amazing photos of the egrets and a great blue heron right from the deck. The house is older, but well maintained. The new kitchen is beautiful and functional and includes a wine fridge! One bathroom has been renovated and the upstairs bathroom is partially renovated. We had some minor issues when we arrived (incorrect code, broken toaster) but the property maintenance person, Glen, was very nice and helpful. We hope to return.

Comfortable, well appointed, convenient to beach Enjoyed kayaks, and crabbing from the deck. Quiet area. But easy to bike for basics

Very comfortable house. Great location for a quiet weekend. Enjoyed relaxing on the back porches on the canal. Easy access to the beach.

We loved staying at this house. More than spacious, well kept, outdoor patio is great for meals outside. The king bed was soooooo comfortable!!! And minutes from the beach. Went kayaking for the first time and it was great! Will definitely return in the future!

I rented this property last summer with friends. Very comfortable and spacious in a quiet neighborhood. Fun bike riding and easy access to the beach. Really great space for a family or group of friends. The deck is a highlight, with kayaks available to use, right on the bay. Kitchen and baths all newly renovated. Very relaxing. Wouldn't hesitate to rent it again!

I've rented this house twice, once with a group of 6 friends and once with my family. Both times, it was perfect for us. The location is ideal, right on the bay, with ocean views from the top floor, and less than a 10 min walk (2-3 min bike ride) to the beach. It's in a quieter neighborhood away from the craziness of Bethany Beach. It's also plenty spacious. 1 king, 1 queen, 2 twins, and a comfortable queen sized pull out couch. Sizable and new kitchen great for cooking with an outdoor grill. Deck is a great hangout space overlooking the water. Fun activities, too - kayaks, ping pong table, TVs in most rooms. Highly recommended!
