House was perfectly set up for two couples and our dogs. We especially loved the large kitchen with eat-in dining area, the two lovely front decks, and the fenced-in yard. The neighborhood felt friendly and welcoming and the proximity to the park was wonderful for dog-walking. Easy walk into downtown Lewes through a charming residential area. Would love to come back next year!

Perfect beach getaway

Our stay in Lewes was fabulous - one of the best rentals we've ever stayed in. Close to the beach and near to town but still in a quiet area, walking distance to multiple playgrounds, a fenced-in back yard for the dog and outdoor play. The beds were comfortable and the house had everything we needed. A wonderful stay!

Best location for center of town and dogs

The property was located just a few blocks from the center of Lewes, making it a short walk to restaurants, shops, and cultural highlights. At the end of the block is a beautiful dog-friendly park with a small loop path (about 1/2 mile).The property itself has full bathrooms on both floors, a spacious and well-equipped kitchen, 2nd floor washer/dryer, great WiFi, a fenced backyard with patio furniture, 2 second floor balconies, several smart TVs, a fireplace, and off street parking.Easily the best vacation rental I’ve ever booked.

Magical week in Lewes

We have always loved Lewes so having a great house right near the center of town was a treat! The house is beautiful with special amenities — a great upstairs porch for lounging; an outdoor shower; a short walk to a park with a pond (our dog’s favorite spot); and a lovely bike ride into gorgeous Cape Henlopen State Patk - one of our favorite places! All in all a great place to be!

Beautiful Home in the Heart of Downtown Lewes

Would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat! This house was exactly as advertised right in downtown, Lewes. We came in for the weekend for a bike race and loved everything about this property, from the spacious, clean rooms to the outdoor porches. It was very accessible to everything you want to do, whether walking or biking to get there. Also, as a huge bonus it was pet friendly, which was great for our dog who was also staying with us :) Communication and expectations set with the owner was awesome!

Fall Lewes 2024

The location was great for walking to town and the local park. The house was roomy, comfortable and furnished nicely. The only drawbacks were the refrigerator ice maker did not work and the coffeemaker was missing the necessary basket required to make a pot. We were forced to go to Walmart to purchase a coffeemaker.

I booked this property for 3 weeks in July as my "home-away-from-home". The property location and bi-level living space accommodations are perfect for multi-generational family reunions in Lewes. A pleasant 10 minute walk down the street takes you to Canal Park and all that Second Street has to offer!

This place outdid itself! Pictures barely did it justice. For starters, having a bathroom for each bedroom was a game changer, and the showers were amazing. Every room was so cozy, even the bunk beds were extra comfy. Having a backyard for the dogs was our deciding factor in choosing this home for our vacation. Its so nice being able to bring them with us. The park at the end of the street was the perfect place to take them for strolls. There is an excellent farmers market at that park every Saturday, make sure to stop by. All of the restaurants in town were really good (especially Agave, Taste of Italy, and Irish Eyes) and Savannah Beach was only a few minutes away. Dogs are allowed on the beach after 6pm, so we spent a lot of sunsets splashing in the gentle surf with them. Cape Henlopen was also close enough to ride bike to, which was a bonus treat. If I had to find fault with anything about this place, I'd say the grill is worse for wear, but that would be reaching because everything here is pristine and designed for comfort and relaxation. So thankful for our time here. The whole family agreed we would love to return here someday. It was really hard to leave. Thank you!!!

Great location and A LOT of space

This is a beautiful home located within walkable distance to downtown Lewes. It was perfect for our family of five (kids 2-7 years old) and my 80 year old mom. My mom was able to stay comfortably in the first floor bedroom so she didn’t need to go up and down the stairs. Overall the house was clean and well stocked with supplies. I made an error in not renting linens so we didn’t have any towels, sheets etc. The host was quick to respond to my messages and tried to help me get the linens we needed. The area the house is located in was friendly and safe. There was a lot of nice outdoor areas as well. We didn’t bring our dog but if we had it would have been a very easy dog friendly experience. We would love to stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Katharene

Host profile image
We love Lewes! We first discovered Lewes in 2012 and have never looked back. We love everything about this town. Ocean, Bay, Bike trails, great restaurants and shopping--it's all right here. This is our second rental property in Lewes. We have another at the beach ( vrbo.com/411503) but love the in-town vibe so much we purchased this home in 2020. We love to walk to the restaurants on 2nd street and our kids love the park down the street with a fishing pond and large playground. We ride our bikes or walk to the beach in a matter of minutes and love the bike trails. Lewes is just the best town for a relaxing, fun get away any time of year.

Why they chose this property

House is so comfortable and cozy. Layout easily accommodates two families. Great bunk bed room with 3 beds. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. Fully appointed kitchen is great for cooking and entertaining. Porches are terrific to start your day with coffee and a book--or for happy hour after day at the beach. House is located on a beautiful and quiet street. Oh, and pet friendly!

What makes this property unique

Incredible location, fenced yard, fireplace, gourmet kitchen, porches. Pet friendly.
