About this property

Tiny Bay House on Delaware Bay / 2 min walk to the beach / Sleeps 5

Tiny Bay House on Delaware Bay – Serene Coastal Retreat

Nestled among tall pines, this home feels like a treehouse with views of Delaware Bay. Surrounded by nature and birdlife, it’s perfect for slowing down and unwinding.

2-minute walk to the beach. This natural shoreline—home to horseshoe crabs and bay life—is not for swimming. The shallow, brackish, tide-influenced water is ideal for wildlife watching. Bring bug spray and sunscreen.

Loft: Queen bed (2 guests) + foam fold-out twin (1 guest)
Living Room: Twin air mattress (1 guest) + sofa bed (1 guest)

Bathrooms: One full bathroom + one powder room
Heating and AC keep you comfortable year-round.

Our time here was an attraction in itself. There were so many small details. I won't mention all of them as I don't want to spoil the surprise but one of our favorites was a telescope pointed towards an ocean piling where birds frequently perch. The house felt interactive and playful. There were snacks and beverage options (including tea, coffee, water, and even other surprises) available. Very clean. One consideration is the stairscase. I would advise caution for those with mobility issues (bad hips, knees, etc) as the steps are somewhat narrow and steep. Owner is kind and responsive, yet nonintrusive. Overall, it was a nice respite from a day of busy vacationing.

About the host

Host profile image
California girl...Born and raised, I’ve always been drawn to the coastal vibe—a place where I can walk barefoot in the sand, tend to the garden, and feel at home. I enjoy farming, gardening, raising chickens for fresh eggs, going to farmers markets, and painting. I love hosting because it gives me the opportunity to share a space I’ve created where people feel truly welcome—a place to unwind, experience peace and healing, and feel fully immersed in nature. A place to be in awe of your surroundings and to fall back in love with the beauty around us when we take a moment to stop and truly see what’s been created for us. PEACE !

Why they chose this property

My love for nature drew me to this location—the birds, the sound of water, the sky, the sunrises and sunsets—and the simple, slow-paced life. Being around peaceful, amazing people who share a common appreciation for simplicity.

What makes this property unique

You’re close enough to the shore to see and hear the waves, with that soothing ocean soundtrack always in the background—while being tucked among pine trees full of chirping birds. It kind of feels like your own little treehouse at the beach
