There are access points every 3-4 properties. We have immediate access at our property eliminating a 200 ft walk before getting to the beach! There is a $45.00 dog fee per night for each dog. The great thing is the beach is semi private where you do not have other visitors parking in front of our home to access the beach. Enjoy the best month of the year, warm days, cool nights-hear the waves with your windows open! 'JUST PACK YOUR BAGS- WE'VE GOT THE REST!!' We help you in your vacation planning by providing the following items: all kitchen needs including dishwashing supplies, laundry detergent, laundry softener, toilet tissue, paper towels, trashbags, We updated our kitchen and updated primary bath.

Enjoy the 360 degree view from an all-sided wrap around gated porch. Face the beautiful Delaware Bay from one side, and simply turn around to view Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge on the other. Bring your binoculars to enjoy many, many species of migrating birds and various wildlife present in the refuge. Come out at dusk for the gorgeous sunset or later at night to see all the stars in the dark sky. Also visible from the porch are the lights of Cape May, NJ and those of Lewes, DE. Take a few steps to the sandy beach and collect such treasures as seashells, seaglass, sharks teeth and beautiful stones.
Broadkill offers a quiet, relaxing setting to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Kick back and read a great book on the private beach without the crowds of the public beaches to disturb you. Dogs are permitted on the beach year around and you can have a bonfire on the beach too! Kids will enjoy the small waves of the Delaware Bay as you sit in the water nearby. Visit the Broadkill Store which offers fishing tackle, an assortment of grocery items, sandwiches and great milkshakes to order, a small gift area, and don't miss the homemade donuts on Sunday!
Just five miles away enjoy the historic ship building town of Milton. Home of Dog Fish Brewery (tours available), casual dining, grocery stores, pharmacy, antiquing and seasonal festivals. Just down the road is Lewes, the first settlement in DE, with a great deal of shops, museums and fine dining.

Very nice vacation right on the beach. We were able to do a fire on the beach at night. Owners were present across the street from the property and very nice.
This property is lovely, impeccably clean and fully stocked for a comfortable and relaxing stay. It is a described and the hosts were great! We will definitely stay again!!
Such a relaxing vacation - Hosts were warm and gracious and made sure we did not want for anything - great location to sit back and unwind without the hustle and bustle of typical beach vacations. Would highly recommend!!!
Perfect location to see sunrise and sunsets. The proximity to the beach is exceptional. Nice, quiet neighborhood with a charming Broadkill store. We will definitely stay there again.
A great stay in one of the prettiest, private beaches. Extremely clean property, easy check in and check out, right on the water and perfect for a long weekend or a week stay. We brought our dog and the owners were more than accommodating. The home has everything you need. We look forward to our next stay!
4th time staying at Broadkill beach but 1st in this house. Location great, house had everything we need. Huge deck and short walk to beach. Hosts were terrific!
Hosts are very attentive, welcoming, and gracious. The property is located in a perfect spot with easy beach access, beautiful views, and everything you need for an effortless stay. Great mattresses and everything you need in the kitchen. Gates on the deck keep the dogs in. It's quiet, restful, and just wonderful. We hope to return very soon.
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.
The bay area is quiet, and nature surrounds you on the private beach. You're not far from anything but you do feel like you have escaped to a secret place.
Terrific! Comfortable and home-like. The photos don't do the house justice. Well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, very clean. The hosts are very thoughtful. Our dog loved the beach. We really enjoyed ourselves and hope to return.
We loved our stay. Perfect location, with an outstanding deck that went all the way around the house. John was friendly and responsive without being intrusive. We’ll be back.
Excellent experience. Relaxing environment on quiet street of beach homes. Rental house has wraparound deck with great ocean views and all required amenities, including comfortable beds. Private beach is just a short walk.
Our vacation was wonderful! We had beautiful weather, the location was perfect, and John and Cathy were such a help! The house is very nice and had everything you might need for cooking and relaxing. The wrap-around deck was great! It kept our dogs contained and still able to run around and exercise while we were grilling and enjoying the views. And to top it off, a beautiful double rainbow after a rain shower!
The house was spotless and exactly as it appears in the pictures, with everything that you need supplied. But it is all about the beach, which is right outside your back door, beautiful, quiet and dog friendly. And if you want an evening out, Milton is 10 minutes away, charming and has dog friendly restaurants with talented entertainment. I highly recommend this house.
The house is comfortable and not so large that two people and two dogs get lost in it. I appreciated that it was all on one level, with a wraparound deck having gates to keep our dogs safe while outside. It is beach front, a view of the water from the deck and a short walk over the dune to the water. The area is quiet and the traffic on the road travels at an appropriate speed. Only one loud vehicle went by all week. It's a good mix of rental and owner-occupied houses, from smaller cottages to big 3 story mansions. We enjoyed spending time in the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge, which surrounds the neighborhood.
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!!
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!
This was the perfect beach getaway! The home was clean, cozy, comfortable, and so well stocked. Everything we needed or wanted was provided, including all the bedding and towels, so we did not have to bring all of these things with us. It was great sitting out on the wraparound deck and enjoying the stunning views of the bay. It was just a short, easy walk to the beach. So glad to have found this great, pet-friendly beach house. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed the beach as well as the large spacious, gated deck which gave him plenty of room of roam when not on the beach. We were extremely pleased with all the amenities this house had to offer.
My husband and I have now stayed at this property 3-4 times over the last decade, both before and with kids. This trip was woth our 8, 6, 4, and 2 year olds and 2 dogs. The proximity to the beach is a huge plus to the property and the large wrap around deck is great to be able to leave the dogs outside for a bit when the sand starts to get too hot for their paws. The kitchen is well stocked which is important to us as we cook most of our own meals on vacations. The hosts have always been quick to check in and responsive if we need them, but are respectful of our space as well. We will absolutely continue to return!
