Perfect location!

My husband and I and our puppies thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The location was the perfect balance of quiet, but short walk to everything and all of the bike trails. We will love to be back and explore even more.

Cozy House

This property was great for my family over the Christmas holiday. We were in town visiting other family and so we mostly slept here and spent our days at their place. The house is very cozy and well kept. The backyard space is great for kids and the dog.

Great house. Great Location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My wife and I and our adult daughter with our 2 dogs had a great time. The fenced in yard is perfect for the dogs to play. Then the Salt Shack was a great spot to cool off from the heat with a drink and the 75 inch tv. Can’t think of anything that the owner/ property manager didn’t furnish or offer. We will definitely keep this house on our preferred list!👍👍👍👍

Cozy home in Lewes

The property was cozy and comfortable. There are several spaces to enjoy. The front porch, the deck and the salt shack provide plenty of room for family to spread out. Due to illness, several of our family members weren’t able to come with us so there were only two of us and our dog on this trip. We didn’t get to share all the house had to offer. The neighborhood was peaceful and we could easily walk into town. I would highly recommend this home.

Family Gathering

The house met all our needs. It was comfortable and close to other family we were meeting with. The neighborhood was quiet. The big hit was the Salt Shack. It is simply beautiful! We spent every evening there watching tv on the 75” tv. Don’t hesitate to stay there. You won’t be disappointed!!

Quaint home in perfect location

We had a wonderful stay in this quaint home! Neat as a pin and had everything we needed; kitchen was well equipped, enjoyed the screened front porch for early morning coffee or evening glass of wine. Back deck with grill was perfect for a dinner al fresco. The window units kept the house very comfortable. Easy bike ride and short walk to museum, shops, & restaurants on 2nd Street, State Park was about 3 miles.. Brenda was quick to respond and very accessible. Can’t thank you enough!! Would love to rent again!

Charming cottage

Home was clean and comfortable with a beach theme theme throughout. Second floor bedrooms each had their own AC unit and were very comfortable. Our kids stayed downstairs and their bedrooms were a bit warm for sleeping (could have been helped if they slept with doors open as the rest of downstairs was nicely cooled). The fenced in yard was very nice, and the newly constructed salt shack was a great place to eat al fresco, then head into the AC for a movie night. The beach is walkable, but we chose to drive as it is a bit far to cart chairs, etc. The historic downtown is an easy walk, and there is also a park with pond nearby. Note - there is no longer a screened outdoor space - bring bug spray if you enjoy eating outdoors! Our family of four and dog had a great stay!

Adorable Beach Cottage

Property was very sweet, a real beach cottage vibe. Had everything we needed. Especially enjoyed the screened porch and the easy walk or bike ride to center of town and beach. The pretty plantings in front of house added to our enjoyment. We cooked a lot and kitchen was well stocked w items. There are no condiments though but we bought what we needed. Only thing I would change is window air conditioners which are loud and blow directly on beds and dining table. Our weather was pretty nice so for most part we had windows open and enjoyed ceiling fans. I would definitely go back.

Charming "vintage" house in historic Lewes

This 1920s-era house has a wonderful front porch to sit and drink coffee (and other beverages). It was everyone's favorite place to gather. The excellent family-owned Lloyd's Market is a short stroll away (get the rotisserie chicken and local produce) and so is the downtown area. Another plus is you're very close to Lewes' terrific bike trails and the must-visit Saturday farmers market. While this is a dollhouse, it's comfortable, very clean, well-maintained, and has a great and larger-than-expected fenced-in backyard for a dog. The staircase to the second floor and the deep, first-floor bathtub might be a little tricky for seniors. It doesn't have central air, but the wall units, as well as ceiling fans in bedrooms, kept the rooms cool. I'd rent again.

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Hazzard

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Lewes DE. This home was my childhood home. My roots are here and I loved every minute of Lewes and growing up in this small town. Upon inherited this home, wanted to share this home with others as they experience Lewes.

What makes this property unique

This home is small but comfortable and cozy. Hard to believe growing up here there were at one time 6 of us. We recently added the outside Salt Shack hangout to expand the features of the home and to provide a fun area to sit, relax, cook out, play corn hole, listen to music, etc... The hang out offers a place to be outside enjoying fresh air and sunshine. The Salt Shack has a mini split therefore the right temperature is not a problem. The Salt shack has a comfortable sofa and chair as well as large screen TV with streaming. There is also a retro fridge & microwave along with a separate keurig to make a cup of coffee while sitting outside. The grill is propane with an extra tank in the side storage to the left of the building.
