About this property

Parklike Setting With Bay View Steps From Lewes Beach

Contemporary Lewes Beach home located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac adjacent to green space/canal within short walk to downtown (there is a even a trail through the woods leading to the marina area and Irish Eyes). Pet-friendly with fenced yard and great dog running space close by. The house can accommodate anywhere from 8 - 12 guests by combining the first floor apartment with the rest of the house. See below for details.
The main house is located on a the second level and features a generous master bedroom (king) with ensuite bath and direct access to the rear Charleston porch and rooftop widow's walk. The second bedroom (queen) has an ensuite bath and deck with sitting area with wooded views. The third bedroom (queen) is directly across from a full hallway bath, and the fourth bedroom is an open room with two bunks and a full sleeper sofa. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and is open to a sunroom, dining area and living room with large screen TV as well as direct access to a covered outdoor dining porch and grilling area. A second, private nautical styled rear living/family room with bar/sink/microwave, beverage fridge and fireplace with TV has direct access to the Charleston-styled porch with two-person hot tub and access to the rooftop widow's walk with incredible views of the bay. Perfect for sunset cocktails or sunrise yoga. This second living area makes this house ideal for groups and families.

There is also a newly renovated beautiful 2 bedroom/1 bath apartment downstairs with a screened-in porch, brand-new kitchen and generous living and dining area available for an additional $250/night. We do not rent the apartment out separately, but do use it on occasional weekends if it is not rented to the upstairs guests. A separate entrance makes this a great space for grandparents or for a family with 1-2 kids, or those desiring a bit more privacy.

The house features a three-bay garage with kayaks, bikes and beach gear and plenty of driveway and off-street parking - easily 5 - 6 cars. The irrigated yard has a nice large lawn for croquet, frisbee and relaxing by the picnic table for after-beach fun. There is a ping pong table in the garage as well. There is a great outdoor shower adjacent to the garage with a garden hose for rinsing off dogs, feet and gear!

Third Time Is A Charm!
What a great place! Our third visit in three years and there will be a fourth. Nice location, peaceful and quiet. A short walk to Lewes which is loaded with shops and food. Don't hesitate to book this place, you won't be sorry.

Terrific Place
The owner and his assistant were great. Both were friendly, courteous and helpful. The house is terrific. It was well stocked and included many extras for various needs. The house is conveniently located in a super quiet location with deer and turkeys being frequent visitors. My family agreed we would love to stay there again. We all cannot say enough good things about this place. For large groups or multi-generation families, I recommend renting both upstairs and downstairs units.

Everything you need in a great location
Perfect spot for our multigenerational group of six. Quiet, 3-min walk to beach, bike to state park or to town, plus a yard and small fenced area for our dog. The house has everything you could possibly need or want - just bring clothes and toiletries!

About the host

Hosted by Richard Smith

Host profile image
We love Lewes. After visiting Rehoboth for many years, we discovered Lewes and have been spending time here for the past 15 years. Its natural beauty and incredible history make it a perfect getaway anytime of the year.

Why they chose this property

The house is a great blend of modern convenience, private location, and access to the beautiful beaches.

What makes this property unique

Nice size for families, with unique floor plan including separate living and family rooms allowing separated social groupings, movies, etc.
The vast outdoor space is an incredible benefit and very unusual in a location so close to the beach!

Add the downstairs unit with separate kitchen and bath and lovely screened porch for additional capacity and flexibility (downstairs sleeps 4).
