Nestled into the Village of Bear Trap Dunes, this dog- and family-friendly home is surrounded by 27 holes of championship golf at Bear Trap Dunes Golf Club, and it’s just a short drive to Bethany Beach. On-site amenities include the Village Pavilion with indoor and outdoor pools, an exercise room, tennis and multi-sport courts, a seasonal beach shuttle, and more.
At home, start your day with a cup of coffee on the private back deck, enjoying the tree and water view. Inside, you’ll find a bright, spacious layout with hardwood floors and high ceilings. Whip up some breakfast in the full, well-equipped kitchen, then sit down as a family to eat together at the adjacent table. After breakfast, send the kids out to explore on the provided bikes while you clean up. Hop on the seasonal beach shuttle for a day at the sand or hit the community pool to stay closer to home.
At the end of the day, relax in the screened porch and fire up the gas grill for a family cookout. Watch a little TV or upload the day’s pics to social media with the free WiFi before calling it a night in one of three well-appointed bedrooms. Another perfect Bethany Beach day awaits tomorrow - all that’s left to do is book.

Very nice quite area, lots of amenities for all ages
When we arrived, the fridge was warm and didn’t cool down for 9 hours. The comforters upstairs had blood spots on them. The queen bed upstairs was falling apart (broken springs) and the bed smelled like musty urine. The one bathroom sink was clogged …and a bottle of drain cleaner was left under the sink (didn’t work). The spray nozzle on the kitchen sink was broken (sprayed everywhere), as was the coffee maker (we had to travel to Rehoboth to buy a new one…the only place open on a Sat eve). Drawers were filthy and, in some, things were left behind (pacifiers, pins, sunglasses). The upstairs walk-in closet had a huge raft inside of it when we arrived, which tells me housekeeping didn’t even open the door. There was also dog hair everywhere - while I understand it’s dog-friendly, it would have been nice not to have someone else’s pet hair all over my things. Upstairs bedroom blinds were broken. Half the lightbulbs are out in this home, as well as no working light in the garage. It’s understandable that there is a certain charm to an older beach house; however, for this price, the house should, at the very least, be well-maintained. On a positive note, we loved the neighborhood, neighbors and the quiet atmosphere. The location was nice.
The property was outdated and filthy. Every cushion was filthy- the carpets were pee stained as were the mattresses. The house smelled like smoke and mold. I left 4 days into a 2 week rental bc I am allergic to mold and dust which this unit was covered in. I paid a premium rate for 2 weeks and the house was not up to my standards. I was a homeowner and had a rental property in bear trap myself and this was the worst choice I could have made given all the other options.
The house and location was fine. However the house was definitely not clean. Dishes from the cabinets were dirty and the comforters had blood spots. Nothing like starting vacation with cleaning the house and doing laundry . When I contacted the agency they replied with I’m sorry the cleaning wasn’t up to your standards. Up to my standards ??? lol wonder how they would feel if they pulled back the covers and saw blood spots. Then the gas company came into the house while my husband was in the bathroom. Seriously who just walks into an occupied house? We had no notice and I feel this was unacceptable. Again I contacted the agent and received the same “I’m sorry “. I’m not sure who is managing this property but they should be fired. I know if I was the owner, I would be searching for a new company to manage my rental.
We had a great long weekend. The property is close to Bethany Beach Boardwalk. There was a concert there on Sunday night under the Harvest Full moon. Property was quiet, clean with linen and towel service. Recommend for a few days or longer!
Very nice place. Very clean. Per friendly. Good location that is a short drive to the beach. Very close to nearby restaurants and close drive to the other beaches. 3 bedrooms, lots of apace. Back porch and deck area as well.
The pictures are accurate and it’s based on full amenities community with two pools which was nice , you need to pay extra but it was worth it , close to the beach . We would stay here again
House was nice but in need of maintenance and updating. You can tell it is a rental unit but it was equipped with everything we needed. Refrigerator was hot when we arrived so our groceries had to wait for it to get cold. Our biggest complaint was that the unit was filthy. The beds were made and towels folded but that was it. Floors had not even been vacuumed or swept. Sinks, drains and bathrooms had not been cleaned. Mirrors were still covered in water and toothpaste splatter. Spills on cabinets and in refrigerator. Crumbs still on counters...I called vacasa and they sent a cleaner out many hours later, after 6pm, who told us we would have to leave for her to reclean...by then I had already bought supplies and cleaned it myself for almost 2 hours so my family could unpack and shower. Neighborhood was well kept and quite.
