Kayaking in Delaware:
Delaware has only 2,000 square miles, but with 117 miles of coastline, it has much to offer kayakers. In addition to beautiful launches at Cape Henlopen and Delaware Seashore state parks, there’s a lesser-known gem near South Bethany Beach. The three-mile-long Assawoman Canal, connecting the Indian River Bay (to the north) with the Little Assawoman Bay (to the south) is a charming, serene canal.
The canal is a 35-foot-wide no-wake zone. Many sections have a lovely tree canopy that makes a green arch over the canal. It feels remote, offers shade and shelters paddlers from strong wind. There’s a primitive, free launch site by the Jefferson Bridge off Kent Avenue. It is on Guy Street, an unmarked dirt road, 5 minutes from house.
YOU WILL NOT WANT TO LEAVE THIS HOUSE OR THE SCREENED PORCH!!! Don't miss out on reserving this one.

The rental was perfect for celebrating Thanksgiving with family. The home is lovely....beautifully decorated, plenty of room to spread out, lots of seating, large well stocked kitchen, and nice size yard for our fur babies. Located in a gated community with a beautiful view of pond and fountain. Location was very close to many restaurants, shops, and, of course, the beach : ) . Grocery store conveniently located right across the street. Property manager was friendly, communicative and responded very promptly to questions.
My family of ten, ages 9 - 83, stayed at this lovely home. Everything was great.
Our family had a wonderful time in this beautiful and spacious home not far from the beach! We really enjoyed the screened in porch and the view of the pond and fountain. Having a gym, swimming pool and playground within the gated community to use was a plus. We look forward to making more memories in this beautiful home.
With 6 adults and 6 young children we were in the perfect location. The pool was a very easy, lovely walk away and delightful. It was never crowed and allowed for evening swimming. The closeness of the grocery store was a definite advantage for a large group, who seemed to need grocery trips on a daily basis. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
I absolutely had NO issues with anything for this family trip! The property owners were amazing, and the home was large enough to accommodate my family of 15.
Family from across the country travelled to this fantastic gem of a home for our annual vacation. The house is spacious, the screen room and decks were perfect to sit out and drink coffee on in the mornings or wine in the evening and the kitchen was very well stocked. Speaking of stocked, everyone from our four year old paw patrol rod wielding little guy to our seasoned pros caught fish right off the dock out back. There were really nice sized blue gills and other sunfish and some bass. We were happy with our catches and so were the many Osprey and Herons that we saw. The location of the house is super convenient, close to stores, pharmacies and the beaches. Beaches were super clean and not overly crowded and we went on the 4th of July. You can't go wrong with this house! We will return.
Great time in Bethany Beach
Wonderful big home with great amenities in a safe and picture perfect location.
We were able to get away with our kids and pups for a few night during the holiday season. It was exactly what we needed. We played games and visited the town of Bethany and Rehoboth. The house was super cozy and spacious. We loved the view of the water and really enjoyed the pool table. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Everything was clean. Definitely book this beautiful place.
This is a great place to stay for a family vacation. It was a wonderful location to make wonderful memories together. It was centrally located to different things that we did together. We totally enjoyed staying here & would like to stay here again.
Large house with room for everyone. The family room, kitchen and covered porch are just perfect for a large group to gather together. Everyone was comfortable in the house and had space to be both together and separate. We made good use of the sands chairs and beach toys provided by the owners. The house is about an 8 minute drive from the Bethany Beach beach boardwalk area and 25 minutes from the Rehoboth Beach boardwalk. The gated community is nice and safe to walk around and the younger kids really enjoyed the community pool. We would love to come back again next year.
Nice home in a great neighborhood
Lovely home. Spacious. Beautiful neighborhood. Wonderful time with my sons and their awesome families. Easy access to beach, bike trails, golf course, fishing, and Bethany Center. The pool and other amenities were great, too. Thanks to the owners for their quick response to questions prior to arrival...and for sharing their lovely home.
Would love to return if schedule permits!
Property in serious need of updating - I had to place my mattress on floor (removing box spring) to get a quiet sleeping experience), kitchen pans old & grungy. Garage disorganized with fishing poles with hooks on them too easily accessible to young children - one of my children got wrapped up in fishing wire with hook on the end. “Shared” boogie boards broken & unusable. We were there Friday afternoon till Monday morning. Owners came by both Saturday (@ dinner time) & Sunday - texted prior to coming BUT didn’t ask when would be convenient…..just showed up. Entrance key replaced in lock box per instructions & pool passes (which I had to make request for) were placed in bowl on counter (per instructions) YET I received, call, text & VBRO message demanding to know where they were! Cleaners had used key & moved passes - no apology offered. Owner sent VBRO message 5 days after departure stating pool room needed to be repainted due to pool cue streaks & crayon marks on wall but admitted she hadn’t seen the wall - said she had pictures but said pictures not shared with me. Several wall marks noted all over house! Grill was great (used once). Very disappointing experience!
Beautiful property where we were relaxed and enjoyed every minute of our stay.
This house and property are one of the nicest we have stayed at and the host was quick to respond to all our questions. The water fountain in the pond made for relaxing times on the screened porch and helped make all our cares and worries disappear. The house was super clean and the trails through the woods, which were a five minute bike ride from the house are very easy to ride on, even for the children. The location of the house was close to the beach but was in a gated community which made it a quiet oasis from all the crowds. Love this place!
Outstanding property. We had 8 adults, 4 children and 2 dogs, there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out comfortably. The house is centrally located and in a great neighborhood. The outdoor screened porch and the pool table were big hits. The hosts are very responsive and accommodating. The house shows a little wear but has everything you’ll need for a comfortable stay.
