This property is located inside a very well kept community. All the homes, including this one have manicured lawns and landscaping. The home is not only much larger than we had expected, but also well stocked and organized. The rules of the community are strict, as they should be, to support its reputation for a well maintained area and to promote the well-being of the residents. My children and grandchildren found multiple ways to stay entertained while inside and on the screened-in porch. The kitchen is quite large with an open concept, which makes for a comfortable setting for a family. The beach and virtually all entertainment and food places are within 1-5 miles. The parking is an issue at the beach as one might expect so on a return trip, we would find a way to be dropped off to avoid so much walking and loss of time. Nothing out of the ordinary for a beach area. Good times. Great place. Thank you.

We’re also glad you enjoyed the beautifully maintained community and convenient location close to the beach, restaurants, and local activities. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us and for sharing your experience. We would love to welcome your family back for another beach getaway.

Bear Trap Dunes Vacation

The house was very nice and clean and in a great location. My only complaint is that I was staying 5 days but had to pay 260 for a full week of pool passes for 4 people and only used the pool once. I would hope in the future that Bear Trap Dunes allows people to pay for daily pool passes.

Beautiful and comfortable; quiet neighborhood. Hope to stay again

I loved being there. Was joined by family or friends for a couple of different nights. We sang hymns around the piano one night which was really special. The gift card for groceries was a very nice surprise.

Lovely, spacious home

Well appointed home with everything we needed to enjoy our end-of-summer beach vacation. The gas fireplace added to the ambiance and took the chill away from the cool nights. We're hoping to rent again next year!

Bethany Beach vacation

The neighborhood was beautiful. We pulled up to the house and were pleasantly surprised at the curb appeal. When we went in the house, it was so much bigger and spacious than we thought! There was room for everyone and it was very neat and clean. The kitchen had everything we needed. It was a great location, we could easily go to Bethany Beach or it was an easy drive to Ocean City.

Great Location for Golf

The house was spacious and the dinning table was a large size to accommodate 8 people. The kitchen and bathrooms were well appointed with a lots of attention to details if a bit dated. People were friendly in the community and the community amenities were great but pricey. It would be nice to have beach chairs or umbrellas for your use. It was a challenge to wash off the sand. PS: bring a fly swatter.

Great place

Loved the area and property. Pool passes do cost extra. The piano was a great touch, as well as the screened in porch and deck. Since it was near the fourth there was a few houses down, where they set off fireworks. I think either because of the management or another neighbor, they were over within an hour. Would recommend, especially if you have a dog.

Absolutely wonderful week at this home! Bear Trap Dunes is a quaint, quintessential neighborhood with flat, tree lined streets and picture perfect homes. The one-level home is spacious and dog friendly - I expected some residual pet odors but each and every time we walked into the home it smelled clean. The linen package provided all sheets and towels which was a bonus. The kitchen was fully equipped with anything and everything. The master sits right off the living room and the other two bedrooms are in the front of the home with their own full bath. We were surprised with bicycles, beach chairs, boogie boards, etc. that made our trip more fun. The screened in back porch was the highlight of our mornings. It’s about an 8 minute drive to the beach - away from the hustle and bustle but just close enough. The pools are nice, as well!A couple things to note (nothing that would keep us from returning): There were no blackout blinds or curtains in any of the bedrooms so my young children were waking with the sun every morning (if you have a child in a pack n play, the master closet is large enough and very dark!). The master bed was super soft (fine for me, not my husband!). The living room lacks seating compared to all the beds available in the home. You have to pay to access the pools. Thank you for a great week!
