The house was as shown and described in the listing. Had all the needed and wanted amenities and was impeccably clean. The location was a perfect jumping off point to the places we wanted to see, Rehoboth, Bethany and Ocean City Beaches. Highly recommend this property.

Beautiful, peaceful bayside stay

My friends and I had a wonderful stay at this property! The host, Sara, was extremely communicative and went above and beyond to accommodate us and ensure we had an enjoyable stay. The house was well-equipped with basic staples- pantry items, paper towels, toilet paper, and even cleaning supplies, which all came in handy as was appreciated. This is a great house to rent if you have a large family or want to stay at the beach with friends. So many floors with decks, large living spaces, and spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. We were very fortunate to rent on a low humidity weekend, and enjoyed morning coffee and snacks on the screened-in porch. It was also very quiet as not many neighbors were home! Highly recommend renting here!

This home had amazing water views, was very well stocked with all that we needed for a large family to feel at home and enjoy a family beach vacay! The owner was great to work with and always responsive if we had a question. We used the elevator for our daughter and master bedroom shower was accessible enough to bathe her easily. Thank you, Sara! We hope to return!

This is an excellent house and Sara is an excellent, communicative, responsive and gracious host. A perfect home for a large family. Beautiful, well-appointed, near everything but still quiet. So many wonderful spaces for contemplating the gorgeous water and landscape, reading, bird watching or family game playing. Kayaking in the salt pond was a private tour of nature. We loved it!!
