Excellent vacation

The house was comfy and had lots of space for our two families and 5 kids. It was close to the beach, ice cream and all the things we wanted to do. It also had an outdoor shower so we could rinse off the sand before entering. The property manager quickly answered some questions we had. Overall a wonderful house to relax in.

The neighborhood was excellent. Swimming pools were well kept. A couple were very crowded with kids but the one closest to our house was not crowded and never any issues. Convenience to groceries, beverages, and food places was very nice. My daughter and her boyfriend actually hooked up with a realtor to see a couple houses in the neighborhood that were for sale. Golf courses were nice as well.

Delaware beaches

We had a great stay at this very comfortable property. The pool was just a short distance away and very large, The area is quiet with views of the ponds and wading birds from the back yard. The owner was very responsive when we had questions. Great location, close to many restaurants, groceries, and the beaches.

This is our fourth year staying at this property and each year we have the best vacation. This property accommodates our large family comfortably.

Nice rental in Fenwick

Great house and owners were great to deal with. The only issue we had was my elderly mother was traveling with us and it was not safe for her to do steps. There is only one bedroom on the main floor ( beautiful master) which we gave to her for safety reasons. Wish there was one other bedroom ( besides a pull out couch ) on first level that we could have been close to her at night. It’s a great house for a family with no concerns of elderly care. We had a lovely time.
