Kitchen is fully stocked with the exception of a conventional oven and dishwasher.

Conservation Wildlife Refuge view from front of the house and a quick walk out back to the beach. Quiet, quaint small town with corner store for your convenience. (Closed during winter months). Entire place is freshly painted and renovated as of Oct 2021.
The constant question I get is "how close to the beach" is the house located. Well it is literally 60 sec walk out the back door. I thought the pics might have made that clear, but apparently it isn't. No there are no busy roads to cross (in fact no roads at all) Just walk outside.
What more could you want or ask for while on vaca ! ! Come visit!!!
If there is an amenity that has been offered and available for your use, and when you arrive it is not working - I will call the appropriate person to fix. You MUST be responsive and available (if necessary) for the technician to come in and fix the problem.
Great location. Good Time!
The condo was a very short walk to beach which was not crowded and really nice.. The condo itself would probably best be described as economy grade. The facilities are clean and useable but dated. Bigger concern was that it lacks common amenities which are generally expected in a vacation beach rental. The listing is honest.. but we made assumptions which were not correct. On the 2nd floor unit there is no washer/dryer. No dishwasher. And the only oven, is a countertop unit which is basically a large toaster oven. There is a range. For a very short stay 2-3d, this was not a huge inconvenience.. for anything more.. not having ability to wash towels at a beach would be a burden. The isolation of this beach and house from restaurants is appealing, but makes the kitchen deficiencies more problematic.
I had stayed at this rental a few times in the past and it still does not disappoint!!! It is very peaceful and quiet and the view of the ocean from the balcony and the kitchen nook is exceptional! Check in was easy, communication with the owner was great, and it's only a short ride to shops, restaurants, grocery store, and other beaches. I highly recommend!!! :)
The building is kept. Things are clean and tidy. Location is good. View is good. Cannot walk to the beach due to large 10' sand dune in front. Had to use access to public beach. Kind of tough for older people. So, 1 day at beach. Manager was responsive. Did use the elevator which works.
This property is a window into nature with its views of the bay and the marsh. The space was well suited to having my pet along. Town wasn't too far away. Very relaxing experience!
The second floor unit was comfortable to stay at but unfortunately due to the pet friendly status there is no carpeting and having guest staying in the unit above was so noisy. We were forced to live by their wake up schedule of 6:30 am. Dogs running back and forth barking and kids pounding toys on the floor. It would be best to carpet the 3rd floor and just clean them when needed. I feel guests would have a better stay. Unfortunately two buildings were also being built on both sides of the house. I wish that information was disclosed so I could have made an informed decision about where to spend my summer of 22 vacation. The owner was accommadating and easy to communicate with.
Our host listed the property accurately. She gave very detailed instructions for accessing the property and what we needed to bring. She was also quick to respond to any questions we had. We had great access to the beach and it was not crowded, something we like when going to the beach. Make sure you bring bug spray, though! An added bonus is the nature preserve! Definitely would stay again.
The property was great, just as expected. The communication with the Host was easy and she got back very quickly. I would recommend people to stay here if you are looking for great views of the bay or a place to stay if you are going to go do other things in the area. However, the beach was absolutely terrible. The water had a ton of Jellyfish in it, which our group got stung multiple times. The beach had so many Horse flies it was next to impossible to avoid getting bit. Even bug spray didnt help! We left with a ton of bites on all of us. There is also alot of regular flies that tend to get into the house each time you open the door. There are sharks, which one can expect. A group near us were fishing and kept catching baby sharks. After the first two days of our 7 night stay we decided to go to Rehoboth Beach on the Ocean side of Delaware and that was amazing. No Horse flies or Jellyfish and the boardwalk was fun. It is a 40 minute drive or more depending on traffic. We were hoping to just have a nice relaxing time not having to leave the property or the beach because we were right on the water, however as stated above we were not able to do that and that's why we would not stay here again.
We fit perfectly in this house with me and my 4 kids and my girlfriend and her daughter…so 2 adults and 5 kids. The location was beautiful and close to the beach that has no real waves (ideal with kids). It was quiet and beautiful. Not far from downtown when we wanted to go swim in the waves or shop/get dinner. Close enough to everything but far enough that we got great family time and quiet in the evenings. Property had everything we needed and the owner was available if I needed anything. Also- note that the property has an elevator, which is amazing if you are planning to bring an older adult or someone with a disability. We are planning to bring grandma for the next trip.
Pictures do not due this property justice! The sliding glass door opens to a long outdoor deck which overlooks the bay allowing gorgeous sunrise views. The amenities were off the chart - every type of utinsel, dish, pot, pan, cup and cooking device you could ever need. The gas grill on the outdoor deck was a great addition. Clean, comfortable, cold A/C and very pet friendly. The bay was great for calm water swimming. If you want bigger waves (my son did) Rehoboth is a short 20 minute jaunt down the road. What's not to like?
We had a lovely time at Broadkill beach. The owner was very accommodating and we had everything that we needed. It was the best location as we were right on the beach!
