Quaint Home/Relaxing Stay

Great property in a quiet neighborhood. A quick two block walk to the beach. The walk to the main part of the broad walk was a bit far but this allowed for a less crowded and quieter beach experience.

Norfolk Road

What a perfect location for a fall stay. We stayed for 6 weeks and everything was perfect. We walked to the boardwalk, the lake, and downtown. The house is a quaint old Rehoboth original cottage with many charming touches. An older but pleasant home.

Great Stay

Great stay in this Rehoboth Beach Cottage. New comfortable beds and cold AC downstairs. Upstairs rooms with 5 twin beds was warmer but a portable A/C and fan helped a lot. Maybe bring an additional fan. Cleanliness in a few areas could be better and the cottage is showing some wear. Old coffee filter was moldy, dirty wet laundry was in wash and not started, dishes were wet and not put up. Minor things. Book needs updating of local contact, but message via VRBO worked great and was responded to promptly. Kitchen is well equipped, almost too much ‘stuff’ and careful much isn’t microwave safe. Screened front porch was an awesome hang out spot all week.

60th Birthday

The location was great. The beds were pretty comfortable. The rest of the furniture was acceptable. If I had one complaint, it would be the general maintenance of the property. There were light fixtures, hanging from the ceiling, that needed to be reattached. There is no handrail to get into or out of the house, and several people commented on that. There are a couple of holes in the boards on the front steps. Overall, we had a wonderful time, but I would agree it is the quintessential rustic beach house. We had a pull several bikes out of the garage in order to find two that were rideable. The interior of the house was much better than exterior. We are Exterior just needs a little Lovin.

Whimsy Beach House

A very charming and whimsy beach house to say the least! We loved the location which was walkable to everything. Comfortable beds too! We had an issue with the heat not working but the owner was quick to resolve it. We had heaters to get us through until then so the heating system must be quirky. We were toasty warm after that. I would have given this rental 5 stars but it was not clean when we got there. We had to sweep the walkway in to the house which was covered with leaves and twigs. Same with the back patio. We also had to vacuum the black dog hair off of the furniture and empty what was missed in the bathroom trash baskets. Yes it is dog friendly but we have doodles and they do not shed. We were a little annoyed to see black hairs everywhere. Once we cleaned it up to our liking we were comfortable. We recommend this cute and cozy place and we would return despite the few issues.

Lovely historic cottage, perfect location, would stay there again in a heartbeat. Junior library upstairs is amazing. Missed the disclaimer about BYO towels and sheets, be good to place that more prominently (or better yet start providing them). But we did find washing some left behind by previous guests.

This place was perfect for young families, grandparents, and pets. We absolutely loved the screened in porch. We spent most of our time out on it telling stories, carving pumpkins, and planing our day. It is a great location to the beach and away from the noise of main shop street. Not time we stayed one road off of it and hated all the garbage trucks and deliveries to the restaurants. This street is peaceful and my 3 and 6 year old grandkids had no trouble walking to the beach and/or to the arcade/restaurant/shops. It rained all day our last day and the place is big enough we didn't go stir crazy. The beds were comfortable and cleaned throughout. We made memories and that is what it's all about! Thanks!

Great location!! When at the rental, spent most of our time on the spacious screened in porch. Appreciated the bikes and beach wagon. House has a king and queen size bed, not two queens. When asked to bring own sheets, need to be precise. Premises could have been cleaner.

Cottage was in a good location. Kitchen had ants. Toaster was broken. Parking permits were not there. Listed WiFi password was incorrect. I wouldn’t even write this review but when I wrote to owner at the end of stay, he didn’t respond. So wouldn’t choose this property again.

Great Beach House

Location is great, about a 10 minute walk to the beach and to the Main Street with many bars, restaurants, and shops! Home is as expected, nice little backyard for our pups to run around. Everything was clean, kitchen has everything you would need to cook! Beach chairs, bikes, and wagon in the garage which is a nice perk. Overall, great experience!

Beach Vacation

Two families stayed at the home between lacrosse tournaments in MD and DE. The location is great you can walk to the beach. There are many bikes to ride, and wagons to take your gear to the beach provided. The house is clean and was big enough to 4 adults and full sized teens. The host was responsive, and the experience was great.

All the charm and convince of Rehoboth!

I grew up going to Rehoboth 40 some years. We come back every year to continue the tradition for our child. This home is a short walk to the beach and great restaurants. It has everything you need for the trip to the beach or for a great dinner party staying in. Charming and cozy. The perfect setup up for a relaxing beach stay with family and friends. The house is historic which is part of what I loved it reminded my of the Renoboth I knew as a kid.

Lovely cottage, great location

Absolutely charming "Old Rehoboth" cottage. Loved that the owner kept many period details and furnished it with period appropriate pieces and decor. The lot is private with a nice rear garden. We walked everywhere we wanted to go in downtown Rehoboth. It was March, but we still enjoyed the fabulous wrap-around screened porch. Well equipped kitchen, and altogether a comfortable place to stay. The online description is mostly accurate, but one of the downstairs bedrooms has a king bed, not a queen as described online, so we did have to go out and buy some king size sheets. Would absolutely stay here again!
