Beautiful Back Bay, End Unit Villa with 3 Large Bedrooms and Ample Natural Light

Welcome to the award-winning community of Bay Forest! This well-appointed, coastal-style villa features 3 large bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a fully equipped kitchen along with everything you will need for an enjoyable week at the beach. This property is ~5 miles from Bethany Beach and only steps away from first-class amenities.

LAYOUT
The first floor has a large, open kitchen with a breakfast bar and a spacious sunroom with a view of a pond, where you will often see deer, egrets, and herons. There is a comfortable living room, powder room, dining table for six, and a laundry room with washer and dryer.

Also located on the first floor is the office/den, which has a large desk and a cozy loveseat. Catch up on your email (~500Mbps download speed!) while you keep an eye on the pond for wildlife!

The master bedroom is located on the first floor and has a king bed, private bath with double vanity, large walk-in closet, smart TV, ceiling fan, and views of the pond.
Bedroom 2 (queen bed) and Bedroom 3 (two twins) are both located upstairs. These two bedrooms share a full bath.

The patio features outdoor dining for six, along with four Adirondack chairs so you can relax with a book during the calm of the morning or a enjoy a drink at the end of the day while listening to the sounds of birds, frogs, and other wildlife.

All indoor and outdoor furniture, mattresses, and the quartz kitchen counter are new in 2022.

In the two-car garage you will find four new beach cruiser bikes (one bike is slightly smaller and ideal for a young tween or teenager), six Tommy Bahama beach chairs, and beach toys. Villa rental includes access to a two-person kayak, which is stored at the Bay Forest Marina, a short bike ride away. Four life vests of varying sizes and a kayak cart to help you launch the kayak are provided. Also located in the garage is a putter and golf balls for the community putting green and a basketball for the nearby courts.


COMMUNITY
Bay Forest amenities are amazing! The closest pool (~100 yards away) offers water slides, fountains, and a lazy river, as well as a separate pool with lap lanes. Inside the adjacent clubhouse, you will find a game room featuring skee ball, air hockey, foosball, and ping pong for when you need a break from swimming. Located near the clubhouse are tennis courts, pickleball courts, bocce ball courts, a tot lot, and a putting green. There is also an air-conditioned beach shuttle available to and from Bay Forest during the summer months.

At the second pool, you will find an exercise studio and a well-equipped fitness center with a combination of free weights and machines (treadmills, elliptical, stair climbers, and rowing machines). Next to the pool is a recreational barn that houses a full indoor basketball court which converts into indoor pickleball throughout the week. Bay Forest also offers a newly improved marina where you can launch kayaks, fish, crab, or simply gather for spectacular bay view sunsets at the community hangout area. Over 3 miles of picturesque walking and biking trails wind around and throughout the community, where you will find wildlife, friendly neighbors, and a community herb garden.

Less than two miles from Bay Forest, there are grocery stores, restaurants, mini-golf, golf, ice cream, and liquor stores.

Please note that the Bay Forest community charges $50/person for use of the community amenities. This payment will be paid directly to the Owner with the final payment two weeks prior to arrival.

All rentals during the summer months are Saturday to Saturday rentals only. Monthly rentals available, please contact for rates.

    We had a great trip! We loved both the house and the community. My 4 year-old really loved the pool with the lazy river and the slides and it was so easy to walk right over there. Stacey was also very easy to communicate with.

    Perfect house for our family of four. Bay Forest has so many amenities to take advantage of! The pools with a lazy river, gym, walking paths and marina for kayaking and paddle boarding. Bethany and the DE beaches are a short drive away. Stacey has been a gracious host and we are so happy we found this place.

    Beautiful, incredibly clean home. Owner left thoughtful gifts and card for our stay. The community is beautifully designed with natural forests and ponds preserved throughout that attract wildlife such as deer, birds, frogs, lizards, crabs, and even jellyfish! Paths throughout the development were perfect for evening bike rides which our family loved. The pool with slides and lazy river were great for the kids, as well as the game room! We visited Bethany Beach with the community shuttle bus and Rehoboth Beach on our own. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Stacey's communication and information throughout the home was wonderful and very helpful to our stay!

    They told us to start a load of laundry no problem but get charged anyways because they said there wasn’t a load of laundry! I know I should have took a picture before leaving and you can’t have any sand in the house whatsoever even though we kept everything in the garage. Stripped down in the garage and everything! Will not be staying here again! You can’t be that picky about NO sand can be in the house!

    My husband and children (ages 9 and 12) had a relaxing and fun week at this well-appointed home. We enjoyed being so close to the pool and game room, and made the short walk at least once a day. My husband and son went fishing off the pier (also within walking distance) and my son was thrilled to catch his first flounder. The home was very clean and had lots of space for everyone, and the bed in the master suite was very comfortable (I usually have trouble sleeping when traveling, but I had no issues on this trip). There were lots of options for local dining, and it is an easy drive to Lewes, Rehoboth, or Dewey Beaches. Stacey was very responsive and easy to deal with, and we had no problems with our trip. Would definitely stay again!

    We loved everything about our stay! The house is very well set up with everything you need, from cooking utensils to beach paraphernalia. You can see the life-guarded pool, game room, and playground from the patio at the back of the house, making them an easy walk. The house was immaculate. We used the four bikes daily to ride the trails that meander through the community. The rest of our family was staying in Lewes so we went up there to the beach rather than going into Bethany, but it would have been an easy 5-minute ride and on Friday through Monday you can ride the shuttle. We'd definitely stay there again and highly recommend it for others.

    We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during our summer vacation. The house was spacious, comfortable and clean. Bay Forest is a great community with awesome pools, amenities, walking paths and great views. We can’t wait to return next year!
