About this property
Gorgeous pano views, Beach Front Access and hot tub! Your peaceful escape!
Enjoy the most beautiful views in slaughter beach overlooking both the Delaware Bay and Prime Hook Marsh, preached atop the tallest deck in town you can enjoy your coffee or evening cocktail with spectacular panoramic views! Slaughter Beach is a gem of a town that is peaceful and quiet, nature abounds with ospreys, eagles, shore birds, and a walk along the dog friendly beach is sure to provide some treasures to find. The beach almost feels exclusive, few passers by who like you are making the most of the salt air and beautiful scenery. Sunsets on the westward facing decks are unimpeded and spectacular. Relax on the porch swing with someone you love with plenty of room for others situated in their Adirondack chairs simply enjoying what matters most. In the evenings you can take in the stars. With very low light pollution the stars can be unreal some nights, sit in the hot tub with the people of your choice and soak it all in. Slaughter Beach provides the balance and peace a real vacation requires, only a short drive into the hub-bub but perfectly removed. Close by Rehoboth and Lewes beaches can be great for an evening out or a trip to the boardwalk with family. The town provides access to tennis, basketball, pavilion, boat launch, and DuPont Nature Center. Take a family bike ride down Bay Ave or a active jog with few cars passing you by. The home has 5 bedrooms total and 4 full bathrooms. Two King Master Bedrooms, a Queen, dual twins in bedroom four and a bunk bed in the 5th. bedroom.

The house was very clean, the views were beautiful, and the access to nature was outstanding. Katie was very communicative and helpful with local recommendations. It felt like staying at a friend’s house! We definitely recommend this place!
This house was perfect for our multi generational family. The house is lovely, modern, and clean. The kitchen is very, very well stocked, we cooked many meals easily for the 10 of us, the beds are comfortable, and the 3 porches plus the screened in one provide wonderful peaceful views complete with a breeze. We would definitely book again.
The house and its hosts are spectacular. The views are very beautiful; however, you can't swim in front of the property. There are other beaches you can travel to.
I hope all hosts are as nice as these!
This home is so amazing!! Just can’t say enough great things about it. The kitchen is awesome- it has everything you need for family feasts! So many different areas to nap or read a book, as well as room to work on a jigsaw puzzle, play games, or just relax in the many comfy outside areas. The private entrance to the beach was perfect for our dogs, and we spent many hours just walking the beach picking up shells. You never have to leave the property to enjoy your stay!
We were thrilled with our vacation. The pictures are accurate but the house is so well layed out and so beautifully appointed you will be pleasantly surprised. Beach access is 50 feet from the front door and it is a peaceful beautiful place with views in the distance of Cape May and the Ships. This was beyond our usual price range but we all agreed it was worth every penny and the layout etc enhanced the ability of Mimi and families of 2 adult children to enjoy it thoroughly! Btw Rehoboth etc is about 40 min away for those who want boardwalk and vibrancy vibes. Can not recommend more highly.
This is our second stay in this beautiful home with such gracious hosts. It is such a fabulous place to have everyone in our family gather. Our grandkids (we have 6) ages 1-10 had such fun together. Since they only get to see one another a couple times of year the older ones were excited to come back remembering all the fun times they had last year. We explored the special things unique to Slaughter Beach, wandering out at low tide, flipping horseshoe crabs, etc. We also had fun with the excitement of various attractions in Rehoboth Beach and Cape Henlopen. Katie and Ed's home is perfect for playing games together, cooking and enjoying meals together and just a breathtaking view of the Delaware Bay. Thank you for another wonderful year at the beach to relax and connect!
This is an excellent vacation property! The owners responded quickly to any questions we had. Having access to the house through the garage to the elevator of this four story home made unloading suitcases, beach gear and groceries a breeze. The multiple decks offered quiet spots to relax. My favorite was the view over the Marvel Salt Marsh each evening to watch the sunset. When we wanted to get out, Milford, Lewes and busy Rehobeth were available. The house is super equipped from the kitchen to the beach equipment. We unloaded but didn’t use many things we brought because they were already at the house. The neighbors at Slaughter Beach were friendly and helpful. Our whole family (ages 7 to 83) enjoyed this property.
We absolutely loved this beautiful house and we felt right at home for the week. It had everything we could ever think we might need- from beach chairs, to a beach wagon, fire wood, and even a fridge stocked with condiments! The beach was quiet and we barely saw any other people. My family had a great time looking for seashells and rescuing horseshoe crabs who were a little too slow when the tide went out. We did have a small issue with the hot tub, but the owners were quick to respond to our messages and we were able to work out a solution. We absolutely loved that the house had actual grass! That's rare at the beach but our pups were very appreciative of it. The elevator was a life savor when we unpacked our cars and for those who had trouble with the stairs. We loved sitting on the top deck at night with the fire pit and watching the stars while the family enjoyed the hot tub. Our only suggestion would be that the two front twin bedrooms need curtains on the front windows. The lack of privacy was a small inconvenience for the teenagers when they were changing. We loved our stay at this house and hated to leave at the end of week. We would stay at this house again.
We chose Delaware for our family trip this year, our 5 adult children and their spouses all went! The house was perfect! There was plenty of bedrooms, several which had desks, which was great for our remote workers. The Kitchen was amazing. We are a family of cooks, so every night was another awesome meal. The kitchen is fully equipped, with everything you could possibly need, no matter what you are making. The island is the largest I have ever seen, which was great for our make your own pizza night with plenty of room for each couple to have a spot to work in. The kitchen table was also quite large, and accommodated our family of 11 for meals and games.
The beach is a horse shoe crab sanctuary, so be prepared for them being strewn across the beach. ( both dead and alive), so we did not use this beach. We drove to the beaches about 40 minutes, which worked out well. There is a lot to do in the vicinity, and we had a great week. The hot tub was popular. The house was great, made for a memorable vacation.
Amazing property. We had six adults, and seven children from ages 7-18. The home is wonderful. Huge table in the kitchen/living/dining room around which we ate and played games. I sipped coffee there every morning watching the sun rise. The master bedroom on the first floor has a wall window facing the Delaware bay. Watched the moon/sun rise there as the ships slowly proceeded by. One night thunderheads put on a lightning display there. It's an amazing room, with an oh-so-comfortable large bed. The claw deep deep bathtub, and the huge walk-in shower with the ceiling shower spray were both unbelievable.My wife and I were accustomed to staying in the Outer Banks region of N.C. This property in Delaware was about a 4 hour shorter drive for us, but it was a dart at the map trip. None of us had been to Delaware before. The area is rural, but centrally located. Various day trips were made to Washington D.C., Baltimore, and one family took the ferry to Cape May. My wife and I went twice to the Assateague Island National Seashore to see the wild horses.One very important feature, my wife has bad knees, so stairs or a long walk of soft sand or dunes to the beach are difficult for her. The elevator in the house was wonderful for her. The path to the beach was not very inclined, and for the most part hard packed sand. That worked out great!This is an amazing property. Everyone enjoyed themselves immensely. I could go on, but at the limit of the space allowed.
Great property, having an elevator was helpful with having 4 generations on vacation! Kitchen is equipped with everything you need!Owner is super responsive , check in was easy. Everything you need for a great family vacation.
This place was incredible. The views alone make it worth renting, so beautiful. But the house is spacious and spotless, with countless little touches added to make it feel like you’re at home. We loved every minute of our stay and can’t wait to come back!
We had a wonderful time on our family vacation.The house is beautiful and the views spectacular! It’s close to other beaches and Milford is close enough to find anything you may have forgotten.Thank you Katie and Ed!!
The house is beautiful, and very well appointed. The setting is amazing- just what we were looking for with two dogs in tow. The owners were generous and very responsive. We had a wonderful vacation!
This home was gorgeous and very well appointed, more beautiful than the photos! Kate was an amazing host…very informative and available. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
This is our 3rd summer staying in this lovely house with our kids and grandkids. It is the perfect place for a family vacation. The kids once again had a great time exploring the uniqueness of Slaughter Beach with horseshoe crabs, shells, etc. We had so many fun adventures, sand shark fishing, going to Funland in Rehoboth, exploring Lewes and Cape Henlopen, riding the ferry to Cape May. Probably the best was enjoying games and meals together at the house. Katie and Ed are always available for questions and give great suggestions on what the lower Delaware area has to offer. Lots of wonderful memories!
Beautiful property....well-appointed. Views (front and back) were awesome. The hosts were responsive and easy to work with. They even got dog-friendly birthday cake for my dog. Very relaxing!
This place is absolutely beautiful,The hostess was very helpful and attentive to our vacation needs. We enjoyed the walk up distance to the beach and the sunset and sunrise. Waking up in the morning watching the beach and feeling that cool beach breeze on the back porch was incredible with a cup of coffee. The home is absolutely beautiful and homey, my husband and I and our puppy definitely enjoyed it. Delaware is an amazing place to visit and to live. There was a lot of dog friendly places and the seafood was incredible. We are definitely going to visit again and definitely reserving with the same hostess . They were awesome.
This beach house is beautiful and nicely decorated. Everything you need at a beach house. Our entire small family spent a week there and it was wonderful. The sunrises were spectacular as well as the sunsets. It’s a quiet area. Close to restaurants, bakeries, and grocery stores. We played in the sand and water, rode bikes, played cards, and have many wonderful memories at this beautiful home. The owners are
always available and quickly respond. I highly recommend this beach house.
peaceful gorgeous and close to a great water park ,Cape Henlopen and a very quaint town with an excellent bakery. also convenient to a Walmart. And a Food Lion. And very important to the teenagers a Starbucks ! The owner could not have been more responsive. If I asked a question I received an almost immediate response. Thank you
