Occupancy time for weekends can be as early as 12:00 Noon and departure as late as 7:00 PM so as to avoid traffic and enjoy another day at the beach.

For weekly renters, occupancy time on Saturdays is 4:00 PM and departure time is 11:00 AM. Renters may ask for a late departure and owner will check schedule.

This large house is waterfront on a lagoon with a fenced-in, gated back deck and boat dock and an upper-level front porch with lagoon-front views. The back deck is new and has comfortable deck furniture and umbrellas.

Parking for 8 cars in front driveway

For the use of renters, we have two sit-on-top 2-seater kayaks (with room for a dog or child) and one sit-on-top 1-seater kayak with paddles and life preservers of all sizes (toddler to XXL)

There are no steps at all to enter lower level of house, helpful for disabled persons, where there is a kitchen, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, outdoor shower, and laundry room. Each level of the house has a kitchen and a washer/dryer set.

You can kayak right off your back deck dock onto the Little Assawoman Bay wildlife preserve. Motorboats and pontoon boats may also be rented and docked at the back dock.

The ocean beach is three blocks away - 500 yards from the house - a 10-minute walk, or you can park along the street across from the beach using the 2 neighborhood beach parking permits. We have a neighborhood path that leads between the dunes to the ocean.

If you prefer to go to Fenwick Island State Park Beach, it is a 5-minute drive south and has parking, restrooms, showers, lifeguards, umbrella and chair rentals, and a snack bar with grilled chicken and hamburgers. There is a ramp to the beach and you can rent beach wheelchairs. Across the highway is a bay beach with calm waters that can be enjoyable for children, and it has wind surfing rentals.

Our beach is a state park beach and has beautiful dunes with no houses on the beach. Again, across from the entrance to our community, Bay View Park, there is a neighborhood path through the dunes to the ocean. Dogs are allowed on our beaches with leashes.

There are water views of the lagoon from three sides of the house.
Crabbing is available off the back deck. Nearby at York Beach Mall you get your bait and crab nets.
The back deck is fenced in and has two gates that can be closed securely.
There is an outdoor shower at the lower-level entrance of the house.

Upper level of house has kitchen, living room, dining area, 2 full bathrooms, and 3 bedrooms.
Upper-level dining table seats 10 people comfortably
There are 2 more seats at the kitchen bar area.
Lower-level dining table seats 6 people.
The house has a pest-control mosquito service so that people can sit out on the back deck and enjoy the view without having to worry about mosquitoes.

The house is located at the end of Belle Road in the neighborhood of Bay View Park in Bethany Beach, a 10-minute drive north of Ocean City, Maryland

There is an upper-level smoking front porch with water views that has comfortable chairs and a dining table for serving meals and enjoying the breeze and bay views.

Both kitchens are stocked with fine china dishes, silverware, glasses, wine glasses, plastic dishes for picnics, cookware, crab pot, serving platters, blenders, coffee makers, Keurigs, knife sets, microwave, and toasters...everything you need to serve formal or casual dinners to large groups of people.

There is a large back deck with large Weber gas grills, four large dining tables, and 5 comfortable lounge chairs for a large family waterfront dinner. There are enough tables and chairs to seat 22 people for an outdoor dinner. There are 18 straight-back dining chairs. The back lower deck is fenced-in and gated.

The house is decorated in bright beach colors and nautical fabrics with nice quilts and bedspreads and has rattan furniture and many oil paintings of wetlands and beach scenes.

This neighborhood of Bay View Park backs onto Little Assawoman Bay, a wildlife preserve, where there are many wild waterfowl and is a lovely area for biking, hiking, and kayaking.
The house has 2 central air-conditioning units, one for each level of the house and the units do very well at cooling down the house in hot weather.
The beds are very comfortable with 2- or 3-inch memory foam mattresses on the queen-sized beds and decorative quilts and blankets.

    Beautifully decorated home. Amazing location, well stocked with basic need in every room and bathroom. Tons of towels and linens all organized. Plenty of dishes and kitchen wares/cooking supplies, full kitchens with everything you could need. Location was great, really nice furniture in and outdoor with the beach house aesthetic evident throughout. My family and I had plenty of space and were comfortable for the duration of the stay. Beds were comfy, rugs everywhere, seating was ample, and bathrooms were clean. Communication was good and owner very pleasant.

    The location was perfect. The host was very nice, available and very responsive when answering questions, the house was fully stocked with necessities, the bathrooms could have been a little cleaner, the furniture in the rooms were a quite dusty, the trash cans needed lids to keep the crows and other critters out, we had to go out several times to clean up outside property, because the crows were tearing into the trash bags. After a few days going up and down the steps to eat together and to cook a full meal got to be a bit much, but overall the property was big enough and spacious enough accommodate our needs, the location couldn't have been any better. We agreeded that we would rent again, providing the cleaning was done better, if there were screen doors and lids for the trashcans. The location and property was on point, it was easy access to everywhere we needed or wanted to go.

    Great gathering for a LARGE family especially if a few of the younger ones can share a bedroom or sleep in a couple bunks.The HIGH MARKS beside the roominess of house are 2 separate full kitchens; location of house on a canal that connects to the bay and is close to South Bethany Beach; three high quality kayaks and docking for your boat; big parking lot; great big deck on the canal with kingsize dining/serving table with many chairs and a highly responsive/communicative owner. AREAS of IMPROVEMENT would be dryers that take triple time to dry things and, if it bothers you, dated-looking feel of the house interior. The plusses FAR OUTWAY any negatives…and I can't underscore the HUGE benefit of the two full kitchens.

    This property worked great to get our adult children and their significant others all together. The kitchens were well stocked which made cooking easy. They enjoyed the kayaks. The beach, shops, and stores were easily accessed. We had lots of room for 17 adults. It was great to hang out on the back deck. I would definitely recommend for a large group.

    Place has lots of bedrooms for large gathering. Kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes, glasses, pots and kitchen accessories. Description should mention there is only access between the levels outside. We didn't bother locking the doors as the sliding glass doors could not be locked. Place needs renovated but good for a large family. Place also provided kayaks which was great..

    We so enjoyed our stay on this property! All 7 of our children, spouses, significant others and 6 grandbabies all fit with room to spare. The layout seemed odd when we first viewed the property but turned out to work just fine with plenty of ways to access both levels. The beach was beautiful, the neighborhood lovely and the weather cooperated during our stay. We so enjoyed the outside space and the use of kayaks was a treat. Our host was accommodating and very nice as we had the pleasure of meeting her upon checkin. Thank you Nancie for a wonderful week with our family!

    We had a great time staying at this location. The home (although a little dated) was perfect. Plenty of room, close to the beach, right on the canal, and centrally located both to Bethany and Fenwick.

    Could be better. For this kind of money it needs updating. Very hard to wash/dry/pack all linen before morning check out. Bedrooms not conducive to adult couples planning get away from kids.
