We had a great stay—it was the perfect location for us with young kids going back and forth from the beach to the house. The walls are thin, so we did hear our kids as soon as they woke up with the sun… Overall, the house more than met our needs, and we’d love to come back!

Hi Randianne, thank you for your review. We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback as a means to continually improve our homes for future guests.
We hope to host you for another truly carefree and great vacation in the future!
This property really is the perfect location. The outside "downstairs" was a great place for the kids to play, while the inside was comfortable and well-designed. The only downside were how thin the walls were and how much we could hear each other (especially coming from the kids room). We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning.
The beach is so close and the cottage is wonderful. Love the charm and having everybody on one level. Kitchen had everything we needed. Appreciated having a washer and dryer. Liked that there is an outdoor shower for coming back sandy from the beach. Such a wonderful place to get away with people who are near and dear to enjoy the beach.

Comfy & Relaxing Cottage- Great location!
We loved everything about this cute, comfy and relaxing cottage. It had a very homey feel, and was well stocked with everything we needed. The property is SO CLOSE to the beach, which was really nice and made it easy to go back and forth. The vibe in this house is different than other houses at the beach, and we liked it so much more!
We had a great stay at this cabin! It’s vintage, for sure, but overall was a very comfortable place to stay just 1 min walk to the beach and Matt’s fish camp. We have been staying in Tower Shores for the last several years and just love the location. The house was well stocked and had everything we needed. The local host was very responsive and immediately helped rectify an AC issue. Overall I would recommend this cabin for a family beach vacation!

Proximity to beach access is the only amenity
The beach access for this property is it's only convenience and amenity. When we booked this property we expected it to be rustic, not neglected. Efforts have been made to reach out to customer service, but over a week has passed and there has been no response. So, here are all of the issues that we experienced while staying at this property:
vomit on the bed frame, dirty clothes left under a bed, floors were filthy
Bedroom doors do not close properly, one door is falling apart
Bath water retention does not work, shower function is broken
Refrigerator leaks water, refrigerator door is broken
Stove burner does not work
This property should no longer be available for rent until some upkeep is undertaken.

We have provided your valuable feedback to our local manager to address. We hope to have the opportunity to better impress you in the future!
I feel so lucky that the owners of this property shared it with us! It is obviously somebody's special place, and it was very special to us as well. We loved how close it was to the beach. This is the one old house in a neighborhood of condos and it has so much charm! It has two doors on each side of the house that you can open up to get breezes. We didn't use the air conditioning at all. The interior is all wood and its very lovely. We appreciated the shower and hose below the house to wash the sand off after the beach. Despite the listing mentioning bikes, we didn't find any to use, but we also didn't reach out to find out if they were there someplace. We went into Bethany Beach for a couple of meals and liked how much lower-key it is than Rohoboth. DiFiebo's was delicious. Overall, it was a great beach house, nice size, nice everything.
