Bethany Beach off season

We really enjoyed the property. It was tastefully and comfortably decorated and clean. The kitchen had all appliances and tableware in great condition. The property is ideally located in easy walking distance of the beach and the town. We will definitely rebook this one again.

A wonderful beach vacation

The house was perfect for our family. The location is incredibly convenient to the beach and all of our favorite Bethany spots…only a couple couples from everything we needed. The house is clean and comfortable and the screened porch and back yard are wonderful as well.

Great original beach cottage in Bethany

We are returning guests to Keith’s cottage. We appreciate that fact that when renovated, the original integrity was saved and the modern conveniences on the interior are great for today’s needs. The cottage was clean, well-equipped and a comfortable stay. We would surely recommend Keith’s cottage if you are looking to stay in town in Bethany.

Three generations

The cottage accommodated all of us beautifully and provided wonderful spaces for family time: screened porch for relaxing and play, back deck with picnic table and other seating, living room for puzzles and Magnatiles, and dining table for drawing and chatting. We enjoyed the lovely lawn and garden, too. A perfect beach vacation spot!

Perfect location

This was our second stay at the property, which looks small in the pictures but is actually quite spacious and very comfortable. It’s very easy to leave the car and walk everywhere and the house has everything we needed. Our host was quick to answer the one minor question we had. We look forward to our next visit.

About the host

Hosted by Keith Brothers

Host profile image
Amy grew up less than five miles away from Bethany and spent her summers as a beach chair and umbrella girl. I grew up in the mountains of Vermont, but for some reason I loved the beach, so when I came to Washington DC, I had to go to the beach. The beach is where we met, fell in love and plan to spend the rest of our time watching our son Hudson, now 6, become a beach lover like us.

Why they chose this property

Location is everything, park your car at the beginning of your stay and never have to use it again. Just around the corner is the family friendly downtown area of Bethany Beach. Kids will enjoy the ice cream parlors, DB boardwalk fries, putt putt golf, the old fashioned five and dime and Grottos Pizza, all within two blocks from the house. Adults will enjoy the great restaurants and boutique shopping right in town. A ten mile drive in either direction and you'll find water parks, golfing, outlet shopping and other great summer fun activities.
