Dewey Beach, Delaware
NOTE: This home is a Friday-Friday rental in the summer months.
This 1950's duplex in the north end of Dewey Beach was 100% remodeled in the spring of 2021, and converted into a single family home. We retained as much of the historic charm as possible, but gutted the entire interior and updated every inch of the house, including the electrical and plumbing.
The house features 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and 2 outside showers, an eat-in kitchen with oversized island, two porches, including covered and open air decks, firepit w/wood provided, and an in-ground pool with heat/chill options. In keeping with the historic nature of the home, it features a variety of items for kids to play with, including old phones, encyclopedias, an old viewmaster, and more. A short 2 block walk to the dune entrance.

We enjoyed the neighborhood setting, closeness to the beach and of course the pool.
I took my family and dog with us to Dewey beach. This was the best place that we have rented in a long time! The house is beautiful and bright. the curtains and blinds keep light out when needed. the house has been lovingly renovated. There were plenty of rooms. the kitchen is lovely and bright and overlooks the backyard pool. Both front and back porches are amazing for reading, having coffee and visiting. Just a quick walk to the beach, we were loving the convenience. I am a walker so I would walk to Rehoboth beach shops every morning for coffee. I highly recommend. Lyn was always just a text or phone call away and very accommodating, an excellent host. We hope to revisit next fall with the family and pups. I forgot to mention the backyard. An amazing spot with a pool, grill and two outdoor showers and plenty of seating to lunch or dine al fresco as well. It was a bit warm to take advantage of the fire pit , but there is a nice fire pit for a fun campfire in the evening. If I could give 6 stars if I would!
Great house. Pool really made it for my 2 grandsons. Couldn’t get them out. House was updated in 2021 and was very well appointed. Close to beach. Property manager was extremely responsive and attentive. Would consider again!
Exactly as advertised! We were a 3 generation family and this home suited our needs perfectly. We used the outdoor grill and ate outside a few nights in the back pool area - just a perfect setting. The kitchen is well equipped, the outdoor pool area is spacious, and the owners have very clearly and thoughtfully furnished this unit with attention to detail - nothing is overlooked. The beach is two blocks away - a short 5-7 minute walk. We rented chairs/umbrellas for the week from the staff on the beach as suggested by the owner, and it was a smart idea. The owners were available by text or phone immediately, and were incredibly kind when we had an illness during the week - even offering to go to the grocery store or drug store for us if needed! We will rent from them again, either this home or others that they own. We spent more time in Rehobeth (five minute car ride) than Dewey, but that’s because we had grandchildren with us who wanted to go to the boardwalk/Fun Land. There is a little store just a two minute walk away which has fruits/vegetables/water/milk/cider donuts/coffee/breakfast sandwiches and is open breakfast-lunch hours. Very convenient! Five stars!
We have rented many houses over the years in Rehoboth & Dewey but none as wonderful as this one! The location was ideal - a short walk to the beach and a quick trip by car or bike or a nice walk by foot into downtown Rehoboth or Dewey. Lovely, quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Very clean & well-decorated home with fun touches and decor. Very comfortable bedrooms with every convenience, including charging stations on each bedside table. Lovely bathrooms with good water pressure in all showers. Great common spaces indoors and out - including the back porch overlooking the pool, which we made good use of and was heated to the perfect temperature, as well as the hanging bed on the front porch- a lovely spot to read a book. A perfectly outfitted and nice size kitchen - every appliance or utensil we needed was there and in very good shape. Great A/C - we have stayed in houses before where we could not get it cool enough, but even on the hottest days, the A/C units kept up with the heat outside and made it possible to sleep so well. We especially liked that each bedroom could control its own temperature. Lyn was incredibly easy to work with - so friendly and knowledgeable and responsive - she answered every question we had ahead of time, as well as during our stay. The guide to the house and the area she prepared was so helpful - including restaurant suggestions for dining out and take in, nearby markets, and suggested activities and shops. We will be back! Can't wait!
A great house in a great spot. Great backyard with a lovely little pool. It’s nicely furnished with cute touches. Very comfortable for our family!
Great place to stay.
House is uber clean, pool and backyard was a hit for everyone, facilities are updated with good water pressure, in unit laundry/dryer, and kitchen was well stocked with al you can need for cooking. However location was the best part: quiet but easy walk to beach and we biked everyday to the boardwalk. We would defo otwly stay again
Met all my expectations. Love the beach.
Perfect little house for our family of 12! With 5 children, 4 under 7 yrs, having a pool was a Godsend! We spent mornings at the beach and afternoons in the pool, which kept the children very busy. The handbook asks to keep the noise down in the pool because there’s an ‘anti pool sentiment amongst the neighbors’. We seemed to be the only house with one! Truth be told, it is SUPER hard keeping the noise down with 5 crazy kids swimming, so it was a bit stressful. There were 2 outdoor showers to rinse off the beach sand before we jumped in, which were 100% necessary! The kitchen was super clean and was stocked with everything we needed! One bedroom did not have a TV, which didn’t thrill those staying there, but it wasn’t a dealbreaker: they lived! The proximity to the beach and restaurants was great with everything within walking distance. We would totally come back!
This was our 3rd stay and 2nd property with Lyn, and it was excellent as always. The properties are consistently very nice with a ton of character and ambiance. And the pool is a game changer! Great experience all around.
This house checks all the boxes if you are looking for a great place to stay. Short walk to the beach and downtown Dewey and wonderful pool. House was clean and well organized. Don't hesitate booking this one....we had a great time.
Everything here is top notch! Our family had a great experience-from the pool, Smores by the fire, games on the deck, short walk to the beach and lovely kitchen. By far the best property we've ever stayed in. We loved riding the trolley into Rehoboth Boardwalk and the stop was very close by. Great choices to eat out in Dewey as well. The owners were excellent - very responsive to any questions we had. I almost want to keep this gem to myself, but wanted to share so everyone can enjoy!
Beautiful place for our family to meet and spend time together. Close to the ocean, shopping and Restaurants. We walked to all! Backyard pool area is truly a relaxing oasis.
Something for everyone at this property. Great fun at the fire pit making s’mores. Pool was refreshing. With kids be sure to bring your favorite pool toys. Great little deli/farm market close by. Trolley was an easy ride into Rehobeth boardwalk. House guide book was very helpful. Beach was an easy walk and both house and beach are dog friendly. If you book early in the season be sure to bring your beach umbrella snd chairs the beach shack wasn’t open early in the week. We’d book again if returning to this beach for vacation.
I would certainly recommend this property to anyone looking to rent in Dewey Beach! It was clean, well decorated, and great location. Walking distance to many things and just a couple of blocks to the beach. We loved the pool especially for the couple of days with less than great weather and in the evenings!
Owner was of property was great to work with! The house we rented had renters leaving the same day we were arriving. They had a sick child and couldn’t leave so she set us up in her other home making up all the beds! Family was happy with location being the perfect place being near the ocean and a great place for fishing
I stayed with a bunch of girlfriends and we had a wonderful time! The house was the perfect size for us and the heated pool was a lifesaver since our weekend weather was sub par. Kitchen was great, plenty of seating, plenty of beds, and great location. Thanks, Lyn!
