Wonderful relaxing getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved everything about the rental. The home itself with the big raised porch. The beautiful neighborhood with the blooming flowers. The short walk into town and the beach so close by. We really enjoyed the bay beach more than the ocean. The only thing that could of made it better was to replace the mattresses on the beds and the cushions on the porch. They were very hard.

We will be back - this place had everything PLUS location!

We have stayed a few places in Lewes, and we all agree that this one is the best! The location is key - teen nephews were able to walk to ice cream and a toy store for a basketball (for the surprise hoop out back), our 3yo was able to go on walks to ice cream and shopping without a stroller, the beach was a five minute drive away (particularly key if you only have an hour for a quick beach trip), and the adults finally visited the shops we'd driven by for years and wanted to see! The property is amazing. From the time we walked in, all three adults were immediately impressed by the size and layout - the photos 100% do not do it justice! The living room was comfortably large for our party of 6; the fenced back yard was a great, safe option for the 3yo, 13yo, and 17yo; and the outdoor shower is so much better than we were expecting with an enclosed, lockable changing area - you can take a not-just-rinse-off shower out there and be completely private and still have room to move. The house has everything you need and don't expect with a rental. You know how you always buy too much good food while on vacation? There are leftover containers so you can bring that extra chocolate cake to the beach the next day! Forgot kitchen towels? They're in the closet. Bought awesome bread from Station on Kings and want jam for your toast? It's by the door. Don't want to purchase a huge olive oil or salt or onion powder just for a week? Don't worry - those kitchen basics are there, too

Well-stocked house in great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was great - clean, well stocked and in good shape. Enjoyed the fire pit and the grill. Location was excellent - a 5-minute walk into town. 10/10 would stay again. Only thing this place needs is a screened-in porch!

Perfect Lewes Birthday Trip

We came to Lewes for a friend's birthday and it could not have been a more comfortable or better equipped home away from home. Cozy, situated just a couple blocks from restaurants and shops, this house was everything we needed. The hosts were courteous and easy to get in touch with if we needed. The house was clean and well maintained. We will be coming back again next spring.

Charming Lewes Home

This three bedroom house has been recently upgraded and has lots of great features including granite countertops, new bathrooms, very comfortable furniture and great conversation areas. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the accoutrements one needs to do meals there. We enjoyed a fire in the back yard, some sunshine on the back deck and watching the world go by from the front porch. The home is located in an Historical District and is within easy walking distance to downtown where there are restaurants, a charming bakery, and lots of fun shops to pick up something to remember your time there. This was our first trip to Lewes but it won't be our last and we will definitely stay here again at this home. It is perfect for a getaway weekend or a family vacation. The owners have clearly put a lot of work into making this a great rental choice.

Lovely house, terrific host, unbeatable location.

The perfect spot for a getaway! I've been visiting Lewes for more than 20 years, since I was a small child, and this is one of my top favorite houses I've stayed in. It's clean, both charming and functional, with an all new kitchen and a great puzzle selection. You won't feel crammed in, there's plenty of well-designed living space. The hosts Caitlin and Alex are super friendly and happy to help you with anything you need. The location is ideal - a very short walk to town, a slightly longer walk or bike ride to the beach. And very close to some of Lewes' underrated attractions, like the park (just walk down 4th st and turn left on park Ave) and the bike trail. If I had one complaint, it would be that Kings Hwy is a little less quiet than it used to be, but that's true of the whole town - and the noise doesn't really get into the house at all. 10/10 would stay again.
