A Dream House In The Heart Of Lewes - Just a few steps to the beach!

Relaxing

We enjoyed our stay at Lewes and the owner of the property was responsive and very nice. However, the house was a little funky and could use some attention. The AC system worked well, which was good because many of the windows didn't open due to broken handles. There were five of us, but only one bedside had a light for reading.There were few items for cooking at home - no bowls for salad or making pancakes - and I ended up buying a skillet and leaving it there. Also no soap, dishwashing detergent, toilet paper, or other basic supplies. Some of the screens were held on with duct tape. There was a screened-in porch which would have been lovely for eating but only furnished with a tiny table and a couple of plastic chairs. If none of this would bother you, it is still a lovely beach across the street.

RENTERS BEWARE! When you are looking to rent this property make sure that you are aware that this is a duplex and the pictures shown on the site are for the lower unit, which has recently been updated. The uppper unit, while it has beautiful views, (but no outside furniture to sit on) has not been updated since 1970! The furniture was not comfortable, there was no cable TV and the kitchen was sparsely furnished. The unit was clean and the beds were comfortable. Also, the owner was very prompt in responding to our needs. Overall, we had a great vacation because the weather was gorgeous and we didn’t spend much time a the house.

Fantastic wrap around deck with great views, especially of beautiful sunsets. Thirty second walk to the beach is wonderful. And location is great for bike rides especially to Cape Henlopen. Beds are comfortable, the sofa is new and very nice. Great to have Netflix and Amazon Prime on a large screen. Enjoyed cooking a lot but a little more light would be nice in the kitchen. Enjoyed the screened porch, too, but chairs could be a bit sturdier for the more robust of us! (I am not of the robust nature so the chairs were fine!!!) One request (for vanity sake!)--a full length mirror anywhere in house would be great. And yes, shower is excellent. We plan to return with our bikes. And the owner of the house is available and very helpful! We felt welcomed.

The location could not have been better for us. We had the lazy beach vacation we were looking for. We had the top floor of a house with two units. Nice view of salt marsh and sunset from back deck. No bay view but could hear water on quiet night. Beach less than block away, easy access. Very quiet beach. Very clean space. Kitchen could use updating but functional. Gas grill made cooking at home easy. Screened in porch would have been even better with more comfortable seatting. Owner was very easy to reach and quick to respond. We hope to stay here again.

We had great time at the beach house. The house needs some upgrade, like for example, the bathroom, the fridge, the dishwasher, and need more dishes, like plates. Other wise, it was a great place to stay and it was very convenient to get to the beach. Laure

We stayed on the upper level of the property. We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The location was ideal. It was right across the street from the beach, and the area was residential, so there was not much traffic and was very quiet at night. Plenty of space for our group (5 adults, 1 child). Very comfortable with AC. One day, though, was cool enough that we turned off the AC, had the screens in the doors and windows and the door to the screen porch open, and we had a wonderful sea breeze all day!! We went across the street to the beach often. This beach is lovely! Not very crowded, even in mid-July!! Our 2 1/2 year-old really enjoyed the water with the gentle waves here. (Some days we also drove to Cape Henlopen for bigger waves.) We had a few meals out on the screen porch. (We had brought our own card table from home, though, for enough table space to do this. I would recommend having a larger table for eating meals out on the porch.) The owner, Ryan, and his parents were readily available if we had any questions. We would highly recommend this location, and are hoping we can book here again next year!

Three bedrooms, two baths and nice living area were very comfortable for a family of four adults. Lovely views, easy walk to very, very nice beach. The town of Lewes is charming and quiet, relative to Rehoboth. Ryan is wonderful to work with. And, the ice cream at Two Scoops nearby is great!

Upper unit beautiful to sit out on deck and enjoy the breeze! Plenty of space to relax indoors. New hanging chair was perfect! Beach perfect for younger kids. The waves are friendly.

The place was clean but with enough wear to it that any family with little ones won't be on edge. So close to the beach (1 minute walk), and an owner who was super easy to work with -- very prompt. The Roku was nice to have (sorry if I bumped all the nerdy channels to the top -- WSJ, Ted Talks, etc.) -- and the swinging chair received a prodigious amount of love from my daughter -- pretty sure her stuffed animals are still sea-sick. Can't say enough about the proximity to the beach and how uncrowded it was. Great place for families!
