The Poe house was exactly as advertised. The house was most definitely spooky and the Poe theme was fun. Be aware that the “kitchenette “ has no sink (the only sink in the place is in the bathroom) and bring ear plugs because it is loud outside at night!

All was good. Kat was easy to communicate with and would get back to me quickly. I hadn’t seen that there wasn’t a sink in the kitchenette; that was on me for not looking at the pics more carefully. The Poe house is very quaint and comfortable. We were happy with our stay.

Theme decor was awesome. Location was a quick stroll downtown. Very busy street so use a white noise app on your phone if street noise is an issue.

Good for what we needed. House was a little too themey but served the purpose for us.

Should understand the theme of Edgar Alan Poe. Borderline spooky but not scary. Lends itself to Gothic. Clean comfortable beds. Old building in good condition. Great location.

Loved the Poe themed quirky charm. Convenient parking. We were attending a soccer tournament and it was a super easy 11 minute drive to DE Turf. We love old houses and it felt like our previous home in New Orleans. Cat was very responsive after an initial problem with the Vrbo app. Would stay again!

Worth it!

Comfortable beds, meticulous details of EA Poe throughout, walking distance to adorable Dolce’ for coffee and pastries, and lovely Milford charm are a few of the outstanding qualities of this home away from home.

The house is cute, very clean, and well situated. The town is also very cute with a great little river walk.Has your basics so don't expect to cook a big meal - no real kitchen, which is clearly stated in the description.The code didn't work for us to get into the house. Cat communicated almost immediately but it took an hour to get the code to go in. I understand access to streaming services are not included in most rentals but codes for local channels should be given or that information should be added to the description. Poe Themed is an understatement. Poe's work is interesting and good but all three of us felt a bit overwhelmed by the amount of Poe paraphernalia.

In general the property needs updating. We had some safety concerns as follows. First the front porch and bench is in need of repair and hand rails. Living room carpet need tacked down on the corners currently a tripping hazard. Staircase to upstairs could use another hand rail being the steps are steep. Second floor smoke alarms were in need of being secured to ceiling and in working condition. Better lighting outside the house in front. Concerns with structural deficiencies in bathroom flooring. We had difficulty sleeping at night due to the excessive gunning of motorcycles engines and trucks all through the night. We stayed Monday through Friday so this was not weekend traffic. The overall flair of the Poe house was underwhelming. However the neighbors were excellent.The home was very clean and the furniture was in good condition.

This was a great place to stay while we were dropping our daughter off for her sr. year at DSU! The location was central to her house in Camden, the beaches in Rehoboth and nature/marsh/beaches of southern Delaware Bay. We really enjoyed getting ice cream and walking the riverwalk. The house itself was fantastic!! It is an old house so be aware of that. We actually appreciated the character and charm that the history added to the experience over a 'new' property. The water pressure in the shower was average and not having running water on the main level wasn't too inconvenient since we were only the a few days but a longer stay (or with children) it might be an issue. The Poe theme was tasteful and not overdone. The owner responded quickly and professionally. Parking is one building over but it is well lit, plenty of space and free!Overall, this is a great place to stay, highly recommend it and we're hoping to book again for Equestrian ECACs and graduation.

The house was clean. It was an old house but that was clear on the Vrbo website. No driveway but close parking. Our interaction with host was great!
