Great place for our group of families and kids. Close proximity to the beach. Responsive ownership. Would stay again.

Seven of my friends and I have been staying at the Nolan residence each November for the past several years for our annual golf trip. Accommodations are perfect for our group. Location puts us within 30 minutes of an array of outstanding golf courses in Delaware and Ocean City, MD. Full kitchen and outside grill make for huge cost savings on food. Always look forward to sipping cabernet and enjoying a Cuban cigar dockside each night. We can always count on a visit from the resident Blue Heron who patrols the lagoon.

Our first time staying in South Bethany (always Bethany Beach). The house was perfect for our crew. We could spread out and not be under each others feet. It was very much like home for the week. We didn’t even use all the sleep space upstairs and there is a lot of room. The house was very clean and tidy. The outdoor space is fantastic. Absolutely loved being on the canal and being able to sit out there and relax. The neighborhood is peaceful and serene.
4.0
Great location in South Bethany, a half mile to the beach. Bikes at the property and the two parking tags were awesome, making it easy to take beach stuff over or head back home midday and relax. Canoe at the house was great to use on the canals!
Plenty of separate spaces on the first floor to have your own space after too much family time. Upstairs bathroom was very nicely updated and outdoor shower was great after the beach. No issues with hot water or water pressure even with two concurrent showers.
Kitchen is dated, but serviceable. Tons of pots and pans and utensils, but we would have preferred 3 nice pans instead of 25 old/scratched pans. The "hallway" bedroom was a little tough to manage with little kids and adults with different bed (and wake up) times, although the kids loved the bunk beds.
Overall amazing location and excellent "extras" beyond the house.
Thanks to Patrick for all the communication, directions etc. If we had had a problem, I have no doubt that he would have handled it quickly.

This is one of the best rentals we have stayed in through VRBO. The house was immaculate when we arrived. The owner answered all of our questions immediately and was always very responsive. The house is in a great location where you can walk to the beach (or short drive with the parking pass) and a few restaurants/deli. The house is spacious, and we love the layout and the fact that there are two separate living spaces so some of us could work remotely in a quiet room while others watched TV or played games. The screened-in porch is an added bonus and a perfect place to hang out and watch some of the boats go by along the canal. I can't wait to go back!

This is the 12th year my friends and I have been coming to the Delaware/Ocean City area for a five-day golf trip. Back in 2011, we contemplated a trip Myrtle Beach, SC. Instead, my friend made arrangements for us to play several courses in this area. We quickly learned that there was no need to spend all that extra money when there are so many great courses in Delaware/Ocean City area. We discovered the Nolan property in 2019. It is prefect in so many ways for our group of eight. To save money, we bring food and cook breakfast and dinner each day. Nothing better than filet mignon prepared on the outside grill. Nights are capped off with a cocktail and a cigar by the lagoon. Already looking forward to next year's trip. Will most definitely staying at the Nolan property.
PS Golfers, save money by doing your own bookings at the courses. Allows you to also pick your own courses, rather than have a service add in a few so-so courses. Rum Pointe, Glen Riddle (Man O' War) and Eagles Landing in MD; Baywood Greens and Plantation Lakes (DE), all are Five Star courses.

very comfortable house, quiet location.
5.0
We enjoyed our family vacation at this property. There was plenty of space for our 3 generational family: 3-4 living spaces and eating areas, 2 bathrooms plus outdoor shower made it comfortable. Reasonable walk to the beach and shopping strip. Bethany Beach is our favorite vacation location because it is so family friendly.
5.0
Fun house for a small family. My kids loved the big bedroom on the second floor and watching the boats in the bay.

Lovely home, well cared for, and just what you need for a week away. Nice having little extras in the house for entertaining and enjoying the beach as well.

We had a wonderful time at your home! It was a perfect location and we had beautiful weather all week! Everything went pretty smoothly and with the couple issues/questions that did arise, the owner was very quick to respond! Definitely recommend! Thanks again for sharing your beach home with us! :)

My family and I stayed at this home for the week. The location is perfect! It’s quiet and beautiful! We easily walked to the beach every day. The home is very well taken care and feels like a loving-home. The updated bathroom upstairs is beautiful and luxurious. The home owner is great and very responsive. We were sad to leave! Highly recommend this home!

Lovely house in a great location - better than the photos!
This house was perfect for an extended working vacation for my husband, adult kids, and me. It is much larger than the photos. There are two separate living areas so my husband and I could work remotely in a quiet location while our older kids could hang out in the open kitchen/family room. Plenty of room upstairs for everyone to sleep. We loved hanging out every evening on the screened-in porch overlooking the canal. I've stayed in a number of VRBOs and the owner was more responsive and accommodating than any other I have rented from. Great location and easy walk/bike-ride to beach!

Perfect Property in Perfect Location for a golf Trip
We have stayed at the Nolan property in South Bethany Beach for our annual golf trip on several occasions. Home is neat, clean with all the conveniences of home. This year we enjoyed the recently renovated bathroom on the sevens floor. Shower was outstanding. There were eight of us. We played neighboring high-end golf courses in Delaware and Ocean City. No need to go to Myrtle Beach. The home sits on a lagoon, which is patrolled by a Blue Heron; very cool. We we will be back next year and the year after that...etc. Thank you Patrick.

Relaxing weekend on the water
We were a group of four adults and three kids under 5 and had a wonderful, relaxing weekend in South Bethany. The kids were thrilled with the backyard on the canal and enjoyed crabbing, canoeing, and playing with the pebbles. We rode bikes every day to the beach which was a short, easily walkable distance. The bathroom has recently been renovated and it's beautiful. We will definitely be back to South Bethany.

Love this house
Great location, quiet but close enough to the beach to hear the ocean. Very comfortable house with lots of room to spread out. We love the screened in porch.

Perfect weekend getaway
We needed a change of pace and this house gave us just that. Plenty of space for a large group, a beautiful canal view and everything we needed. Communication with the owner was fast and friendly.

Fine
We enjoyed our stay in South Bethany. The house was well located for walking and beach access. It seemed as though a family with kids must have visited right before us as chocolate ice cream was on kitchen chairs and wall. The counters needed wiping down and toys in back picked up. It hadn’t been dusted which really wasn’t a biggie for us. Other than that it was fine. Glad we were able to stay there.

Fun weekend at the beach
We enjoyed our stay. Plenty of room for our family of four. Super fast drive to the beach was easier than walking for us with little kids, but would have been a very easy walk without them.

Outdoor Relaxation with Sunrise and Sunset on the Water
John and Diane's place is wonderful!! They have a great outdoor setting in the back with Adirondack chairs and a picnic table overlooking the water from a channel that connects to the bay side. You can even use their canoe. You get the best of both worlds!! It's an easy 8 min walk or so to the beach or a 2 minute drive with parking permits provided free of charge so that you can park on street sides next to the beach. Absolute convenience! So therefore sunrise on the beach and beach day with the family and then head back for a beautiful sunset on the channel and bay side as you unwind and relax from a full day. It's also totally walking distance to McCabes which offers fresh baked bread, croissants etc, and cold cuts and so much more. Then you've got the fish and bait shop next door with plenty of ice for sale for your cooler. I would totally stay there again.

Fun vacation!
We really enjoyed the house. Plenty to do between fishing, crabbing and going to beach with the family. The outside shower was a great bonus. There are great restaurants near by and a market. The owner was very nice to work with. I would consider staying here again!

Great location
The house was great, the bathrooms didn’t quite fit the newly renovated description, but they were clean and functional. The access to the canal was great for kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing and crabbing.
One suggestion would be to update the mattress on the main floor queen bed, it was not terrible, but did cause some unexpected tossing and turning.

Fun family getaway
Our family enjoyed this cheerfully decorated house on the canal. We were able to walk to the beach in about 10 minute. Also, we were able to have a "grillin' and chillin'" party with extended family one evening. Twenty people attended and there was enough space for all even in though it was raining and we had to stay inside. All in all, a good time was had despite the excitement of Tropical Storm Isaias.

Great space
Great property with lots of maximized space. Especially loved having a big room for the kids to sleep together and 2 living areas right next to each other.

location!
We loved being close to things, yet not too close to the busy commercial traffic. South Bethany beach is the best and not crowded. The house could be cleaner and our grill didn't work.

This our third year staying at the Nolan property. Perfect set up for group of seven golfers, w several upscale golf courses a short distance away. Clean, comfortable with several TV’s to keep everybody happy. Weber grill a real plus. Capped off each night w a cigar and a cocktail lagoon-side. Blue Heron was on nightly patrol.

Grannies college getaway
This is a very nice house on the canal.it is great for family groups. It was a little quirky to get in and out but fine after you got the hang of it. It. Was extremely clean and the view was great.
We would have liked more places in kitchen to store food.
Our group of 5 would also have liked more chairs around the kitchen table. Hoping to return next year.
