Crabbing is also permitted on the dock with a valid fishing license.

The location of this beach house was perfect- a short walk to Broadkill beach! Close drive to restaurants. The house had a lovely outdoor shower, plenty of deck space and fully stocked kitchen dishes, etc. We found the living space small for that many bedrooms, but we were on the beach, so was not a huge deal. The house was not too clean, but overall was a good spot for a quick getaway.

Nice quiet house, great location

It was a nice house in a quiet area and great location, with the Broadkill sound on one side and the beach nearby on the other. The public beach access was just across the street and a short walk in to the sand and water!

It was smooth sailing all the way, from check in and throughout our entire stay. The neighborhood was quiet with lots of access to water. It was almost like having the beach to ourselves and the kids loved it! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

Broadkill Beach

Had a great family week with lots of room to spread out. Wish the jellyfish weren't so thick, after a couple of stings we had to drive to Lewes or Rehobeth to get in the water. Very well equipped kitchen, but could use a deep clean and some TLC. Excellent host, quick to respond and very helpful.

Fantastic space

The views are spectacular, the house has plenty of bedrooms, it is well stocked with puzzles, games, and books. The grill and kitchen are all wonderful with everything you need and there is plenty of porch space to entertain. They provided kayaks and have their own dock to launch from. Super convenient to the ocean - 2 minute walk and is nice and quiet. Would definitely go back

The 3 levels of this house provided plenty of space and privacy for each family unit. My husband and I loved the screened back porch for morning coffee and bird songs. Our granddaughter loved the spiral stairs! Beautiful, quiet beach and calm water.

Perfect Family Vacation Spot

Our first trip to Broadkill Beach and it won’t be our last!! So convenient to the beach and we loved the privacy! Bedrooms on 3 different floors worked well for us. Owner very responsive to any questions we had. Our 3-year old grandson said this morning as we were leaving “Can we all come back to this house next year?”!! That says it all!!
