About this property

Welcome to our Summer House. We are in the quaint water front community of Slaughter Beach; located at the south side of the Delaware Bay. Our hope is that you will make wonderful, lasting family memories as we have done over the years. Come and enjoy the lazy days of times past with the backdrop of beautiful, color filled sunrises and quiet sun drenched evenings. The water’s edge is only 70 feet from our cottage and the gentle waves are perfect for children and grandparents alike.

From our living room savor the 180 degree view of the vast Delaware Bay. The summer house is fully furnished; complete with two bedrooms including queen size beds, one queen size pullout sofa, two full bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer and outside shower. If you want more adventure bring along your kayak. During high tide enjoy swimming and fishing from the shore. During low tide wander the flats, exploring all the bay has to offer up close.

The recently renovated Cedar Creek Marina is only 5 minutes away. Here you will find beautiful boat ramps, easy on/off boat launch spaces and parking to accommodate large trucks and trailers. Spend the day or week boating on the bay, sunbathing, fishing or both. There is a small, one time fee for boating on the bay and may be purchased at Cedar Creek Marina.

The Summer House is close to many Delaware activities and popular hot spots. Only 35 minutes south on Rt 1 you can enjoy the historic Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk with its popular shopping and hip dining. Or visit the historic town of Lewes with it’s small, old town atmosphere, unique shopping and restaurants. Lewes is home to the Cape May-Lewes Ferry. Explore the southern tip of the Cape May, NJ peninsula with its boutique shopping and signature restaurants for wonderful day trip. Only 35 minutes north on Rt 1 you can enjoy the Dover Air Force Base & Museum, Dover Downs Casino or Dover International Speedway. Then return to Slaughter Beach to slow down and relax.

So grab your swimsuit, sunglasses, a good book and enjoy making new memories in Slaughter Beach at The Summer House.

Beautiful & clean stay

Very beautiful property and extremely clean! The host was very nice and helpful. This house is about a half an hour from the Dover Motor Speedway. We had tickets for the race, but wanted to stay somewhere outside of Dover with a nice beach vibe. This beach house exceeded our expectations. We especially enjoyed the walk way in the back of the house for immediate access to the sand and water. My fiancé, his farher, and I would all recommend this property!

Perfect getaway!

Clean, well maintained, well equipped, all the comforts of home, plus the beautiful view of the bay. Quiet, yet not far from the hustle and bustle of tourist places and great dining. We had a great time and plan on returning.
