This home was exactly as describe on the site. We had 8 adult women in our group and the home was comfortable and we had plenty of room. The home is located in a great area. It's within walking distance to the beach and private pier. Cape Henlopen State park and the ferry to Cape May were close to the home.

The great spring escape!

My coaching staff and I rented this beautiful home for a long weekend while we were coaching a tournament in Milford, DE. It was a short 30-min ride to the event complex and an amazing place for us to retreat in the evening with restaurants just a short drive away. The space was more than adequate for the 7 of us – almost everyone had their own room. Pros: big open kitchen, living room, dining area on the top floor, perfect for eating and gathering together; 2 large decks with outdoor seating, and 1 smaller deck with chairs for tanning (it was too cold to take advantage of these, but hopefully we'll be back another time!); check-in was easy, just a quick stop at the rental offices 5 minutes from the house, packet and keys were ready to be picked up when we arrived; Cons: the only complaint we had is that some of the mattresses were a bit hard. Still an overall great stay and great price.
