I’ll preface my review by saying we booked it as a last resort after original host cancelled on us because they were selling their house. Not a great place to stay for a group of adults traveling from other states for a wedding. Having to bring our own sheets and towels on the airplane, and having to provide all hand soap, dish soap, and paper products was honestly such a pain. Would have been nice to at least have bath mats and a couple rolls of toilet paper provided. The upstairs is definitely more suited for children with a tiny shower and the slanted ceilings. We kept hitting our heads while brushing our teeth! Also, there was hardly any mirror space for the ladies to get ready. I didn’t trust the cleanliness of the place, as there were open bags of food left from previous guests, we found multiple ants and other bugs, and we were instructed to wash all dishes by hand before departure. The upstairs was also uncomfortably hot even with the AC and all fans on. For a place to stay out of necessity, it worked and was pretty much as advertised, but our group is not planning to stay here again. Would be a good house for a family or two with small children looking for a more basic place for a casual weekend. With a few updates and ramping up the cleaning and amenities this could be an amazing place to stay for all types of groups!

Nice house, bad location.

The location ruined our vacation and caused up to go home early. The house is nice enough, but it is far away from everything and on a noisy and busy street. There are no sidewalks or bike paths, so we were stuck having to drive everywhere (not what we had planned).

Cute Hideaway

My family and I have been enjoy summers at the Delaware beaches for the past 13 years. This year my brother, sister-in-law, and their two little girls (5 and 3) stayed with us. This house was perfect. The four kids stayed upstairs in their own space. The couples each had their own bedroom. We loved the outdoor space (just pack the bug spray). We found the location perfect to enjoy lots of restaurants and activities. The host were super helpful prior to our trip and during. They provided everything we asked for and even more!

About the host

Hosted by Brad and Lauren Speakman

We purchased this home as a vacation home in 2017. We started spending more time there than our regular home and decided to make the move to Lewes permanent. We moved in September of 2020 to a local neighborhood.

Why they chose this property

We loved this property the minute we found it due to the large property size and private backyard. The amazing location and proximity of so many things was an added bonus!
