Classic Lewes Beach Cottage

Our goal was to have a quiet offseason getaway for a small family with one spoiled dog and this house was perfect for that. Clean and well-maintained property. Overall, a good place to stay.The photos show a bay view but you can't actually see the water from the property due to the other houses and dunes. The pics were taken from beach access points just across the street. Calm water and very dog friendly area, lots of dog owners out and about.We didn't actually communicate with the owner, everything was handled through the Jack Lingo Dewey office. They were great. We've rented through Lingo many times, all good experiences.There's nothing in walking distance except the bay, however plenty of restaurants and shopping are a short drive away. We especially enjoyed Roundhouse and Irish Eyes, which are both about 10 min away just before you cross over the canal bridge into the center of Dewey. Great outdoor patios and dog-friendly.We'd recommend this property for anyone looking for a peaceful home base from which to explore Dewey/Rehoboth area, or take the Cape May Ferry.

So easy to pop down to the bay to swim, walk, and play. Lots of space in house to hang out and visit. Decent kitchen for cooking meals together.

The cottage like property is very cute and the beach access is what makes this a great choice for your family vacation. The master bedroom headboard was broken and made noises with every turn. Hopefully that will be fixed for future guests. The house is attached to a larger home. When guests arrived there you could hear them clearly from the master bedroom. The main problems we encountered were related to property management. For instance, the property was generally clean. However it was obvious not thoroughly cleaned. In particular the bathrooms. The shower shelves and hanging caddies were dirty. Small area rugs were not clean. The air conditioner did not provide good circulation to each room and oddly every single vent was closed upon arrival. Took awhile to figure that out! We also booked a linen package, but it was not provided. The company made it right, but the staff member that took care of it was clearly annoyed that we did not realize it until the evening when we went to shower and go to bed. Overall, wonderful little place in a beautiful quiet beach town!

The cottage had lots of light and we enjoyed the various sitting areas for coffee, drinks and conversation. The beds were comfy. You can't beat the location with the beach access right across the little lane. We would have likd the outside shower to be hooked up and working, but since it wasn't super hot beach weather it wasn't too big a problem. The rental agency planned to have it addressed right away. We appreciated being able to bring our sweet doggo.
