Amazing location!

Awesome location only a 3 minute walk to a guarded beach. Away from the craziness of downtown but close enough to enjoy on foot if that’s your thing. Our dog LOVED being able to play in the beach each morning and evening - it’s like a giant dog park! We will be back!

Beach getaway

We (myself, wife, 1 y/o daughter, in-laws, and dog) stayed here for a week this August. The house was as listed, and made for a very comfortable home base for us to enjoy the beach (a ~5 minute walk away) and other activities. Check in and check out were smooth, and we encountered no issues during our stay. We would absolutely consider staying here again in the future.

Nice beach cottage

Exactly as advertised, homey and clean cottage 1 block from the beach. Beautiful back patio, nice kitchen, king beds in two of the bedrooms, clean and nice bathrooms. Beach chairs and outdoor shower on property. Good location in a quiet neighborhood but only a couple block walk to plenty of restaurants and mini-golf and so forth. All in all, very satisfactory and would gladly stay there again.

Perfect hidden gem!

The house was amazing! Perfect location, one block of the beach. In the pines so you feel like you’re miles from the action but yet everything is just around the block. Breezeway is so cute and the kitchen was stocked with literally everything! The 3 year olds to my almost 70 year old uncle loved this house!

Family vacation

We really enjoyed our vacation stay at this house. The house was spacious and yet still felt private for Zoom meetings and those that had to work from "home". The house had great seating and we all loved the outdoor areas as well. The house was very well equipped. The wall air conditioning units worked great . We'd love to stay again!

Great beach cottage in Rehoboth by the Sea

We have always wanted to stay in one of the "Windswept" cottages that were built all over this area in the 60s and 70s. This was a great example with the living and bedrooms off of the open hall. Such a unique house and a window to the time when beach cottages were small and simple. Check-in, our stay, and check-out were all smooth and a great experience. We would absolutely return to this house.

Dewey Beach Beach House

This house was perfect for 4 adults and 2 dogs! All necessary amenities were available to cook meals each night. The backyard was open and spacious for the dogs to play. The location was great-just a quick 2 block walk. It was also a great location to let the dogs play on the beach in the evening, and the outside showers were a great addition to clean sand off people and dogs each day!

Loved our stay on Jersey Street

We've been renting in this neighborhood for the past 6 summers and loved this house on Jersey. For us, having a dog friendly home is key - as part of the joy of coming to Dewey is our dogs can be on the beach in the mornings and evenings. This house was spacious and well appointed with a huge backyard deck and 2 outdoor showers - which we loved. We hope to return to this home in future summers.

Great choice!

This house is perfectly located on a quiet street just a two block stroll to the beach. The house is well stocked with everything you need whether you intend to eat in or eat out. So many spots to sit and enjoy, even if there are those looking to have some alone time. Beach chairs, umbrella, float board all there to use. This house really was a big factor in the wonderful week we had at Dewey. Thanks!

115 Jersey Street

As described, the house is a short walk to a nice stretch of Dewey Beach. We were able to fit 3 small cars in the driveway. The kitchen was well equipped and clean. The shared bath is quite small, so that a large person will find it inconvenient. We would have enjoyed the fireplace on our first, cold night. Lots of outdoor patio space. TV works fine. Overall, a good property. We would rent it again.

Start with the location

Park your car and forget it. Easily walk to the beach and Dewey. only a mile from Rehobeth and the main entrance to the boardwalk. Walk to kayaking and if you bike it's an easy ride to Cape Henlopen. Great outdoor space in back and fenced in for our small dog. Comfortable accommodations and a modern kitchen. Definitely recommended. But, if you want the linen rental, double check with the property manager. We did have to scramble on that.

Reasonable gem

The location is very good. Close to a remote and relaxing beach. Easy walk. Close to boardwalk area with the chaos.The back patio area is lovely - large and nicely landscaped. The linen service is pretty substandard. I flew in from Colorado so I could not bring decent ones. The place is pretty good - some of the furnishings are dated and could use a refresh - front porch furniture is rusted and stained. I think someone should do a good walk through to test things. Ice maker threw ice all over the floor and jammed, the washer and bathroom smelled of mold. Some of the ceiling fans would not turn off. I know it is a dog friendly house which is good but I didn't want to sit on the couches - they looked pretty cruddy. For a 300 pet fee, you could wash the cushions occasionally. Overall a good value except for 300 pet fee.
