We love the house and location. Well stock kitchen and supplies for our stay. A quiet, friendly neighborhood. We walked the beach and area everyday. My husband shore fished and had a blast. The Prime Point Refuge is just up the road. It is a special place.

Cute cottage right on the beach with wrap around deck. Sun all day, or shade when you want it. Comfortable, cozy building with amenities and linens. There is nothing fancy about this spot, but it has the comforts needed. Plenty of deck seating, and just a few steps to the beach. Watch the sunrise or see the moonlight from the house. If a few dust bunnies, crumbs or squishy beds don't phase you, this is great!

Can't beat the location of this house - truly just steps from the beach! We all loved the low-key vibe of Broadkill. The house itself was well stocked with everything we needed. The wraparound deck was perfect for containing our two dogs or allowing the humans to spread out and enjoy the outdoors. John and Cathy were friendly and helpful without being intrusive. A fabulous week all around!!

The beach house is literally on the sand of the Delaware Bay. The house had everything we needed and more. It’s not fancy but I don’t ever need fancy. We had perfect weather and a wonderful week! 🏖

When I walked into the home, I felt like I was home. It was clean, stocked with everything you need ie. toilet paper, cleaning supplies, all cooking utensils, blankets, sheets and towels. They supply a list of restaurants and other things to do in the area. There are games, movies and books for rainy days or family night. They have 3 beach chairs and beach toys, bring your own umbrella. The house has a fenced in deck around the entire house which my dog loved, he was able to run around or just play ball on. The view to the bay was amazing and the sunrise could not get better. The beach is a short walk over the dune and it is stunning, we never saw more than 5 families on the beach. We saw dolphins, crab, horseshoe crabs and jelly fish. Yes, there are jelly fish but just stay away from them and you are fine. We did have a few days with bugs that stung us, I used my deep woods off and they stayed away. The beach is dog friendly, and I was able to bring him in the mornings and late afternoon, he loved playing with other dogs. I absolutely love the location, the homeyness of the house. I really can't say anything bad about it. It is a treasure.

Never been to Broadkill Beach before. Didn't know what to expect. Friendly little community, quiet, secluded but close to great local stores. The best surprise was the easy beach access, the fact there were almost no other people near us, like having a private beach. Water with little waves perfect for little grandchildren. The owners were nice and friendly and long time regular visitors and property owners. So they could make knowing recommendations. Also provided a lot of very helpful items: beach toys for kids; koozies for grown up drinks; and necessities like plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, trash bags, hand soap, dish towels, propane for grill. Much more than other summer rentals we've had. Great memories for us and our grandkids. Thanks.

This was a perfect house for our week at the beach. Short walk over the dunes to the bay, and we loved being able to see the water from the deck and house. House had everything we needed and owners were great.

Hosts were just great. Size of house is very accommodating and location is awesome. Portions of the deck and the gates need repaired. Ideal for our dogs! Enjoyed our stay very much.

Had a amazing trip, so very peaceful. Beautiful sunrises. House was very nice. John and Kathy supplied lots of stuff for us, which was very kind and are always willing to help with anything you need. There is 5 steps to the sand and a short walk over sand dune to get to beach. I do have a suggestion for anyone visiting, when you go to the beach take sandals for the walk back. The sand gets really hot between 2-5 on the dune area, or run really fast. lol. Husband loved the fishing, caught 7 sharks, some sea bass and other stuff. The wrap around porch is wonderful. Our dog patrolled it constantly. My son and his wife enjoyed all the restaurants, movies, and shopping. about 15 miles from the house. Lots of pretty birds came to visit too. Hope to return soon. Very peaceful.

Location , beach and surroundings are perfect. If you are looking for place to unload the stress this beach is the right one. Private, not many people around and you get to enjoy the peace, bird songs and long walks in the nature. House is OK depending on what your standards are. It is outdated but you can see it on the pictures with the listing. I am giving 2 stars only because we had a mouse. We even did the video of the rascal. The problem with rodents is outstanding since 2020 as per old reviews. Also we saw trap in the linen closet and this lead us to think the hosts were aware of the issue previously. We didn't leave for couple of reasons mainly financial since we paid load of money - just proceeded with caution.

Nice quiet beach. You can see the water from the deck of the house. A short walk over the dune brings the beach into view. House has great a/c and ceiling fans for those hot days. Kitchen well stocked. Internet super fast. Owners very responsive to questions from renter. Saw ospreys fishing every day. Nearby Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge and Cape Henlopen State Park are great for hiking and birding. Nearby Milton has grocery store and restaurants. The owner-provided bed sheets and towels cut down on what renter has to bring. Thanks for sharing the beach house!!!

If you like a quiet walk on the beach, away from the maddening crowds, then this is the place to stay. The wrap around porch let's you enjoy the shore. The home includes a gas grill, which we used several times.

The house was great, a little dated but the location can’t be better!a 1minute walk to the dog friendly beach … it was just perfect

Was wonderful to be able to bring our dog to the beach. This was her first beach experience and she loved it. Location makes it easy to bring your kayaks down to the beach. Very quiet beach which we absolutely loved. Come prepared for the biting black flies. If the wind comes from the marsh side they can ruin your day on the beach. We knew about this ahead of time and brought an easy up with netting. This saved the day! The host are wonderful people and so easy to work with. Thank you for opening your family home to allow pets. This was a vacation the whole family could share!

We stayed here for five restful days. Quiet and relaxing area. All we heard were the waves. Just what I needed. The wrap around deck was great. The house has everything you’ll need. We read previous reviews that mentioned a fly problem, we had zero issues with bugs of any kind. My husband was able to surf fish everyday, twice a day. We will get back as soon as we can.

John and Cathy were great hosts. They checked in on us to see if we needed anything and asked for our feedback on how to make things better. They really want to make sure their guests have an enjoyable experience. Our house was even better than the pictures. We noticed the deck had been redone and new deck furniture had been added. Very clean, nice furnishings and right on the beach. What more could you ask for! Don't hesitate to book this house, you won't be disappointed.

Highly recommended

My family loved this trip. John and Cathy were great, the house was as expected and had everything we needed, we only had to get groceries. It was our first time at Broadkill and we loved it. Super quiet, gentle water and lots of wildlife. A short 15-30 minute beautiful drive to so many places. Absolutely recommend this place. Honestly we always end up near Ocean city and hate the crowds, Broadkill is so peaceful and relaxing!!!!

This property is located in a quiet area where we were often the only ones on the beach. The house has all of the basic amenities that guests would need but the location is really the best selling point. John and Cathy are responsive owners and accomodating of guests needs.

We had such a great time at this property. House was well stocked, owners very accommodating and available for assistance. There were times we were the only family on the beach for several hundred yards. We spent time looking for shells, playing on the beach, learned about horseshoe crabs and was in close proximity to Rehoboth, Lewes, and other tourist attractions. Just sorry our week went by so fast.

Such a lovely spot if you’re looking for a relaxing, low key beach vacation. The wraparound deck was perfect for catching up on reading and daydreaming. Beach is easily accessible right off the deck, over the dunes. A dog friendly house and beach was perfect for this family! Easy access to Lewes, Rehoboth, Bethany Beach and other spots.

First time visiting and we were not disappointed. The beach was right behind the dunes and we had it to ourselves some of the time. Other times it was almost deserted. The home was clean and comfortable with plenty of space! Wrap around deck was very nice, plenty of seating. Owners go out of their way to make sure you have all you need and are interested in opinions to better their guest’s experience. We found them delightful.

This was our first stay at Broadkill Beach. The house has direct access and great views of the beach. The deck is wonderful and I spent hours reading, catching up with family and viewing sunrises with my coffee. My lab also loved this wonderful deck that goes all the way around the house and he could see what was going on but the locked gates kept him and young kids safe. The property owners were great and it is really helpful not to have to pack sheets, towels and paper goods - all were furnished. This is a well stocked kitchen - even a small mixer that I used to make mashed potatoes to go with the salmon and steaks we grilled on the deck. We found a nice range of restaurants within 20 minutes into Lewes or Milton including Creole, Mexican, great seafood and steamed crabs.Close by was the refugee which had great walks in the marshes filled with the sounds of birds which we alternated with beach walks and the sounds of the waves. We had a wonderful beach vacation without all the traffic and crowds. We made day trips to nearby Assateague Island and the O.C. Boardwalk. I highly recommend this place and will return.

This was the perfect property for a quick getaway for us and my elderly mother-in law. The rooms are spacious and clean, the kitchen is well-equipped, and the furniture and beds are very comfortable (much newer than in the photos.) The walk-in showers and large rooms made it easy for Mom to move around with her walker. We all enjoyed the wrap-around deck, although the flies were a little annoying. The host is very friendly, respectful and responsive.

The Yosts are perfect hosts - very responsive and available but never intrusive. Their beach-front property preserves the clean and bright simplicity of a beach cottage, while providing many conveniences and supplies that are not available in most vacation properties. All three of the avid cooks on this trip were happy with the kitchen facilities. The beds were comfortable and the access to the beach unbeatable. A fantastic value!

Property was as described, wrap around deck was great for tracking the sun, super dog-friendly. Beautiful sunrises, quiet beach, preserves and state parks to walk nearby, fun to explore Lewes' shops and restaurants. John and Cathy were only a phone call away, stopped by to greet us and to check on our stay. They are looking to replace the master bedroom mattress, curtains in the livingroom, and add a few smaller amenities. This was our first visit to Delaware...we look forward to coming back!!

We met the owners as we pulled in. They live almost across the street. John bent over backwards to make sure we had a great week. As with most VRBO rentals, we were not disappointed in any way with this rental. We plan on coming back in the near future !!

It was a beautiful area. The owners were accessible and seemed nice. Unfortunately, it had not been cleaned for sometime. We found Cheerios and pretzels on the floor, when I swept up sand by the sliding glass doors I also found dust balls and hair balls, there were cobwebs in the corners, and there was a mouse in the unit all week.

Right off the water, easy walk to the beach. Kids had a blast
