This lovingly restored property was beautifully appointed and very comfortable. The location is excellent. We enjoyed being located in the charming Lewes historic district and only a short drive away from Cape Henlopen State Park.

Fascinating house, fantastic location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A rare opportunity to stay in a historic house in downtown Lewes. The location cannot be beat, you have all the charms of 2nd St and the canal right outside your door with excellent dining, shopping and historical sites. Only caveat is I would not recommend to people with mobility challenges as the front step is rather high and the steps to the king bedroom on the second floor are steep.

Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the unique charm and historic character of this Lewes home. Its location right in the heart of downtown, with 2nd Street, the canal, dining, shopping, and historic sites just steps away, truly makes it a special place to stay. We also appreciate you pointing out the higher front step and steep stairs leading to the second-floor king bedroom. That is helpful information for future guests when considering the home and their individual mobility needs. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Lewes for another visit! Lewes Rental Team

This is a fabulous location for seeing all of Lewes. So easy to bike to the beaches and walk to the shops and restaurants. Such a wonderful retreat to come back to after a day out. It was a wonderful place to have a reunion with an old friend. The main room is very spacious and very comfortable. The kitchen was very usable. The historic aspects of the house were very charming really enjoyed being able to sit out on the porch and enjoy the garden in the shade. Great little shed for the bicycles. Highly recommend this as a retreat spot.

Everything was exactly what we were looking for from the location to the house! We absolutely loved the convenience of being right around the corner from the restaurants, fun running routes from the house, and biking down to Cape Henlopen. The beach was a quick walk too.

This beautiful historical property lovingly restored provided a wonderful stay for our vacation in Lewes. Lots to do and see. Several great restaurants within walking distance along with cute shops and an ice cream store that stays open until 11 pm. We definitely went for late night ice cream! Lewes beach and Cape Henlopen nearby were clean and not overcrowded. My only upgrade would be the TV. I don’t know why but it was glitchy making it hard to watch World Cup soccer. Other than that a perfect stay. We’ll be back!

Amazing historic property

We loved staying here. Location is amazing, right next to the historic downtown. Even nicer than the photos capture. This home is a registered historic site and has so much character with modern conveniences. We enjoyed the spacious living room and the screened in back patio area. Didn’t love renting sheets and having to get the key at another location but this seems to be typical of rentals in this area.

Great Location - Walking distance

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: Amazing historic home but with updated amenities. Loved the covered patio - we had coffee out there every morning. It was odd that you have to pay for linens separately and also no soap/shampoo products ---- but easy enough to buy locally.

Very well maintained with many historic details but modern amenities (tv, WD, DW). Checking in and out was fairly simple, company had lots of info about the area.

Not a place for two-year-olds

This two-level house is an 18th Century Methodist meeting house, meticulously restored and full of period furnishings. It has modern appliances and was quite comfortable. The property is managed by PenFed Realty in Lewes, and they can give you more details. It's really not a beach house, but the beaches are nearby, as are restaurants and a great ice cream shop.

Lovely if you enjoy former churches

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: The property is in the very heart of Lewes and had been meticulously restored. Staying there does put the burden of cleaning on the renter as before departure you are not only asked to do the dishes but also to vacuum the place. Also, paying an extra $450 for the privilege of bringing two dachshunds with us for three days was a bit of an overkill.

Just WOW!!

This historic property is perfectly located in downtown area with shopping, restaurants all within walking distance. The inside of the property does not look like a rental! Lots of antiques, which fits the home perfectly. Property has two full baths. One bedroom on main level - single bed - and king bed in the upstairs bedroom. There is one parking space off the street which is wonderful. Property is air conditioned. We loved it and would definitely book again.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a nicely appointed house very close to downtown. We were allowed (for a fee) to have our two dogs with us. It was a good space for the 4 of us. The second bedroom, which we didn’t use) is quite small. But the living space and second floor bedroom are very spacious! The kitchen and two bathrooms are adequate. There’s also a nice screened porch. (We would have used it more. But it was a bit too hot to be out there without the ceiling fan running. But it had only a high speed that was too much! We highly recommend this property.

4/10 Poor

An Interesting Experience

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cost of staying in Lewes for three nights was much too high, in our opinion. We had to pay for cleaning, for a place that had dust and cobwebs. It was like staying in a museum. Some people may like that. It's a historic property, very interesting. Had a weird smell that clung to our belongings and we had to wash everything when we got home. Lewes is a lovely town but I did not care for this property. For the amount of money we spent, we expected something much different. It was also quite dark inside, unless you turned on the overhead lights. We felt discouraged from moving lamps around to read.
Response from VrboOwner on 7 August 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the property didn’t meet your expectations, and we truly regret that your experience fell short of what we aim to provide. As you noted, this is a historic home with unique character, which some guests really enjoy—but we understand it’s not the right fit for everyone. We’re especially sorry to hear about the cleanliness concerns and the odor you experienced. That’s not the standard we strive for, and we’ll be reviewing these issues with our team to ensure they’re addressed moving forward. We appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us improve both the property and the overall guest experience. While we're disappointed to hear this home wasn’t a good match for your visit, we hope you'll consider staying with us again in a different property that better suits your preferences.

One car off street parking was nice too.The property is as described and it was very clean. That said, we loved it , but if you are looking for large cooking kitchen, outdoor showers, etc this probably wouldn’t suit your needs.
