A Great Rental Home in a Friendly Town

This was our first trip to Delaware and we couldn’t have stayed in a better rental for our weeklong vacation. The home was quiet and comfortable and we loved being able to walk (or bike) to so many places including the beach, village shops, and parks. Between the Saturday Farmers’ Market and Lloyd’s little, very well-stocked, grocery store (both within walking distance) we were able to get all the food we needed for our stay. Lastly, we found Lewes to be a very friendly town that we’ll definitely want to come back to.

A Great Choice in Lewes

Clean and well-equipped. In a beautiful neighborhood walking distance from Front Street. Very convenient for visiting Cape Henlopen State Park. Might be a little small for a family of 4 but perfect for us 2. This is the second time we have stayed there!

Sweet place in great location

My first vrbo experience. Cute, clean place in historic Lewes. Close to the 2nd (main) street and canal. Nice having outdoor shower to avoid sand inside. Has parking spot. Great place for a getaway!

Great stay walking distance to historic Lewes

The house was small, but was perfect for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 young children). We spent most of our time on the beach (convenient drive to both Lewes Public Beach and Savannah Beach), so having an outdoor shower in the backyard to rinse off the sand at the end of the day was great. Walking into town took a bit more time with 2 small children, but even so it would take us no more than 10 min - essential for ice cream/coffee breaks! Also, walking distance to two great playgrounds (Lewes CanalFront Park and another closer to the house at the George HP Smith Memorial Park). We had a great time :)

Great location, older cottage

This little cottage is dated and smells like moth balls. On two days of our stay, we came home after the beach to the cottage smelling like cigarette smoke. It does air our quickly if you open the windows and back door. The location is great - on a quiet street in the historic Lewes village. Safe and comfortable. I e rode our bikes to the bay with our kids and could walk to the village.

Cozy, quiet, central!

Spent a great week in Lewes at end of summer. Perfect for a low key couple’s getaway It was a quick last minute booking so there was some confusion about getting the key code but owner was quick to respond. (Key entry info comes into email box looking like a lot of other VRBO promotional emails so that could be improved). Very quiet, safe area near downtow…great walking and biking into throughout the week to shop, dine. Kitchen could benefit from an upgrade and more amenities and supplies (just 2 dishwasher tabs left for the entire week.) Not fancy, but clean and adequate. Location can’t be beat if you’re looking for a walkable, bikeable quiet location in Lewes.

Clean, well-supplied, great location. It is located just outside the busy center of Lewes. It’s quiet and restful but conveniently close to restaurants and the beach. Dishes, lots of towels, linens, soaps, etc. were all available. My only minor complaint is a weak WIFI signal. It didn’t interfere with our enjoyment of our vacation.

Quiet and comfy for 2

This petite cottage had a very quiet location, but an easy stroll or bike ride into town (a few blocks). Clean and well equipped kitchen and comfy bed. It sleeps four, but is a good fit for two. We enjoyed sitting in the back yard patio (watching hawks fly overhead). You may want to bring beach chairs to use, but there was a nice beach umbrella. We love Cape Henlopen's bike trails and deep beach on the ocean side. And restaurant Striper Bites was great once again. So much better an experience than a hotel room, and a better bargain.

Perfect weekend getaway

We were here for a lacrosse tournament and this was a great value for the money, much better than a hotel for the same price. The house is cozy with all amenities and conveniences of home. We were able to walk to the Farmer's market, playground, and Second St. shops. Very quiet street! While there, the air conditioning gave out and the owner immediately purchased a unit while waiting for repairs. Charlene is terrific - thank you, super service! We will be back next year!

Perfect beach house

Cute, comfortable, homey beach house. The house was very well-equipped with plenty of sheets, towels, dishes, plates etc. Having a dishwasher and washer/dryer in the home was a huge plus. Excellent location in-town in Lewes. An easy 15 minute walk to shops and restaurants around 2nd Street. And a very easy drive to beaches and Cape Henlopen. Owners are wonderful! We accidentally left an item outside when packing the car and leaving and the cleaners called the owners and the owners called us immediately. Would definitely stay again when visiting Lewes.
