Welcome to your Prime Hook Beach retreat — a fully remodeled cottage where the Delaware Bay is just steps away and the wildlife refuge is right outside your back door.
Cross the street and you're on a beautiful, serene private beach. Spend your days sunbathing, swimming, fishing, or strolling the shoreline. When you're ready to come in from the sun, the real showstopper awaits: brand-new sliding glass doors in each bedroom open directly onto a huge screened-in deck overlooking the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge. Nature lovers and birders will be in heaven — settle into one of the comfortable chairs and watch migratory birds and wildlife pass through. When the weather is perfect, leave the doors open and fall asleep to the sounds of nature drifting in.

Sleeping:

The main bedroom has a king mattress and the second bedroom has two twin beds — both dressed in premium Boll & Branch sheets. The living room sleeper sofa (queen, with sheets provided) comfortably fits additional guests.

Kitchen:

The full kitchen has everything you need, including a Ninja Foodie Instant Pot, Nutribullet blender, coffee maker, toaster, and a full set of dishes, glasses, utensils, and cookware. The large refrigerator comes with an automatic ice maker. Step out to the small side deck just off the kitchen for a morning coffee or to rinse sandy feet after the beach.

Extras:

Beach chairs and umbrellas are provided. High-speed internet and a 55 Samsung Smart TV with Bose audio round out the living room. Lewes, Rehoboth, Dewey, Bethany, and Ocean City MD are all a short drive away. Milton (10 minutes) has restaurants, a grocery store, and two excellent breweries — Dogfish Head and Dewey-Harbeson.

Pets:

We welcome up to 2 dogs per stay (pet fee: $20/night). Note: beach towels and dog towels are not provided.

Pricing & minimums:

Peak season (Memorial Day through Labor Day) requires a 7-night minimum with Saturday check-in and check-out.

    We had a wonderful stay at this property. The location was very private and super close to the beach (basically had the beach to ourselves everyday). The location is in a nature preserve area so there are bugs but overall it wasn’t too bad and we loved being off the beaten path. Would absolutely recommend staying here!

    We enjoyed our stay at the charming beach cottage at Primehook. Its in a great location, close to a scenic bay. We are animal lovers and enjoyed watching the abundance of wildlife nearby. The only thing that was not so nice are the bugs but they were not around the whole trip. It was a worthwhile stay and the house met our expectations.

    The cottage was exactly described in the listing - very clean and well maintained. The screened-in porch is an absolutely fantastic amenity and faces the wildlife refuge. The property is a very short walk to the beach. We've been to Prime Hook several times and it is a perfect destination for a relaxing getaway. We definitely recommend this property!

    My daughter and I throughly enjoyed our stay. The house was well-cared for, clean and comfortable. The screened in deck off the deck was our favorite place to relax, listen to the birds and watch the sunset over the marsh. We walked across the street to the beach access and saw lots of horseshoe crabs and even spotted two bald eagles one morning perched on a piece of driftwood in the inlet. We went into the town of Lewes for dinner both evenings and loved the quaint feel. The beds were comfortable and both slept well. The communication with our host was excellent and they were very friendly and attentive. I would book again for our next visit to the area. Thank you!

    This was my favorite VRBO location hands down! We love being by the bay, but absolutely loved being by the marshlands watching native birds (snowgeese) and just watching the sunsets with our dogs Chase and Dexter. It was simply beautiful and perfect and very clean. Daniella was great and answered any questions we had promptly. We will be back!

    The house was exactly as described in the listing, was clean and easy to check in to. Also right by beach, and not too far from Rehoboth and Lewes.

    A lovely, clean beach house, with bed and bathroom linens conveniently provided. Lovely views of Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge. Happily, little problem with insects. A good place for folks who would prefer to be away from beach hustle and noise.
