Prime Hook

The property was clean and in good condition. There were no issues with flies, as I’ve experienced with other rental properties in Prime Hook.

Beach visit with grandbaby

Very open and spacious house. Perfect for our needs with a toddling 1 year old. The bed was comfortable. The neighborhood was nice. We took a long walk with the baby. We played in the sand. Loved the sun room. A very nice time.

Serene setting

My family of 4 really enjoyed our stay in this cottage at Prime Hook Beach. The sunroom was the perfect setting to relax with a book, and the wall of windows made it feel like we were imbedded in the sand dunes. We watched the sunrise a few mornings. My family loved having our golden retriever with us, and the neighborhood was very pet friendly. The kitchen was well appointed and the entire home was pleasantly decorated. It's a great location if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle, fyi the closest grocery store is 15 minutes away, and further for a restaurant. Overall, we were very happy with the cottage and highly recommend this property.

Cottage by the bay

we did have a nice stay. Location was great. The pictures of the property are out of date. There were some things wrong with it, that I contacted the property manager about. Broken towel bar in the bathroom, the door to the outside shower was broken right off and missing but the hinges were there. Someone moving our garbage cans around the property everyday which seemed a bit strange.

Beach house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was nice and quiet. Great view of the sunrise. There was a lot of mosquitoes when there is no wind. We could not get any deliveries due to how secluded it was. There is a picnic table but it was falling a part and weeds were overgrown. The pathway to the beach could have been maintained better.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Rental unit was dated and dirty. We ended up leaving a night early due to the conditions of the unit. However, it’s in a great location and has a lot of potential but needs some work put into it.

Beautiful location

If you are just looking to chill and feel at home this is your place. The only complaint is the cigarette butts left behind and the cleaning company is not thorough, found lots of dog hair under pillows, sand and animal hair under furniture and clothes. This is nothing against the owner or the property. The cleaning people and other tenants need to be responsible. Smoking should not be allowed if those who smoke will not be clean especially when the agreement states it is allowed outside in a designated area.

Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great place to stay for a family of 4. House is located beachfront on prime hook beach. Just walk out the back door and you are on the beach! Our two kids loved playing in the sand, shallow water, and seeing all the wildlife.In general, the house had a good layout and provided most of the amenities. The kitchen was very nice. It had a great view of the ocean just beyond the sand dunes. It was missing a few things like a dust pan and laundry detergent. It also could have used a better vacuuming as well. (We didn't have any pets, but there was a lot of dog hair on the rugs and furniture from previous tenants.) They did tell us to bring linens, towels, soap, etc, so we were prepared. However, this did seemed unusual to us. We've rented in the area for multiple summers, and most other houses have everything you could think of and beyond. The property did just change owners, so maybe they are just getting up to speed. The real estate company owning the property seemed very professional and responsive. There is a very large security deposit. It did seem to miss a bit of a personal touch (we didn't interact with anyone at check in or out), but that is just my own preference.Overall I would definitely recommend staying here.

Terrible

Terrible experience. Third party realty firm managing property, incurring additional fees and requirements, contracts and arrangements to be made AFTER booking through VRBO and paying those fees. They require a mandatory “damage protection insurance “ which is laughable considering the state of the place. The pictures are deceptive, not representative of the quality of accommodations. We arrived to a hot, cramped, run down space with a stained mattress and no direct view of the ocean. It was filled with dead and live flies. Management was not responsive, air conditioning didn’t work, we ended up leaving the same night and finding a different rental to save our vacation. After phone tag through a front office who were confused about the situation and uninterested in helping, a contact from Penfed realty responded late Saturday morning stating that even though the temperature at the place had not changed, they could feel air coming from the vent and therefore the air conditioning was working; also, we were informed that flies are to be expected at this part of the shore and “there’s nothing that can be done”. We felt at a bare minimum the addition of a fly strip or two would have been very helpful We informed them the place was unacceptable, we had left, and wanted to be checked out early. I didn’t receive emailed confirmation we had been checked out until Sunday. They retained our entire payment. Very dissatisfied, strongly recommend people find look elsewhere.

nice place

prime hook is an awesome location! the property was nice. the booking is through a realtor company, which was fine but unexpected and without the same pizzazz. we paid X amount of dollars just for the per day rate, but the fees on top of that were really expensive. the fees cost almost as much as the per day rate total. and i dont believe the fees were justified. the property was really great, and i would definitely recommend it. but for a non refundable pet deposit, plus cleaning fees, plus insurance, plus, plus, plus, etc. i would have expected to not need to bring our own linens and have to take out the trash. the location is so good, the house could have been awful and i still would give it 5 stars. amazing for kids and a dog! all of the neighbors are super friendly (though they all did mention how much the would like for the owner to care for the property better, specifically the very tall, unruly grass). there are no trash bins for the property, or dish washer tabs (even though you have to run the dish washer and take out the trash upon check out). it was very clean and tidy when we arrived, washer/dryer are new and clean, kitchen is fully stocked with all the dishes/cookware you need, and bring mosquito repellent! the drive in and out is awesome, the closest store is 12m away (grocery, beer, wallgreens). the beach behind the house is quiet with not many people. the kids loved seeing dolphins, and flipping horseshoe crabs in the morning. our dog had a blast running up and down the beach making friends with everyone.

Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of the house was great. It’s right in the beach and it’s a very short walk over the dune to get to the beach. I’d like to see the tall grass trimmed back some along the path you walk and maybe update the stones and wooden walkway at the beginning of the path. It’s definitely getting worn out. The house size was perfect for myself, my husband, two children and one dog. When we arrived, I did my initial inspection and found sand all over topper blankets on the two twin beds in the one bedroom and there was sand all over the floor throughout the rest of the house. I spoke with the agent renting the home and she offered to have someone come clean it all up, but I declined because I didn’t want to have to take more time out of my vacation to have someone else coming in when it should have been cleaned before we arrived.There are no extra trash bags or swifter replacements here. When I sat down in the rocking chair the first day, a had a flea jump on me. I know it’s a pet friendly house, just be aware and have your pet treated before staying. The house could use a lot of updates. The pictures that are posted make it seem brand new and clean, but that’s not the current state it’s in. The rugs are stained up, the floors not piecing together as they should and being scuffed up, the whole shower system isn’t fastened behind the wall and wiggles around, and just an overall look of just slapping things together for the sake of getting the job done. For the amount of money we spent to rent this for 7 days, I’d imagine having a clean and updated place. The couches, chair and beds are comfortable and cute and the decorations are visually appealing. The appliances throughout seemed new and worked well. The stay itself was fine and secured, but I wouldn’t stay here again. The bones of the house need to be fixed and updated thoroughly and correctly, which would make the

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A very peaceful quiet location approximately a 20 minute drive to grocery supplies etc. Stock up before you check in. The “cottage” interior was cozy for the 2 of us plus our lab Beau. The exterior surely needs a lot of TLC. Overgrown grass by bench and picnic table..

Fun stay

We really enjoyed our four day stay. We appreciated the gas grill that enabled us to grilll on the 4th of July. Please provide a grill brush to facilitate easier cleaning of the grill. The neighbors and neighborhood celebrations on the 4th were incredible! Check out at 10am is tight, if possible extending check out to 11am would be great. Milford restaurants were great (My Sister’s Fault, Medings Seafood, Aunt Mary’s Spulfoof for takeout). Overall wonderful experience and memories.

Great for families with small children

This house/private beach is great for small children in regards to direct access to private beach and the shallowness of the Bay water. For 5 out of 7 days we did not have any issues with mosquitos but for the last 2 days they were horrible and I wish the owners would look into possible spray for the grass areas around the house. The house itself was sufficient for a small group, not really enough space if you have a larger family but great for 1-4 ppl total. The only downside is that there is no local grocery store so you do have to travel into Lewes (min of 20-30 min with traffic) each way each time you needed something wish there was something a bit closer. Overall a nice area/house/beach :)
