  Great location but inside not so great. Had a ton of ants and flies.

  • Manager Responded on 6/29/2026

    Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the location, but we're sorry to hear about the ants and flies during your stay. Because we're in a coastal area, ants can be a common seasonal issue despite our regular pest control treatments. Unfortunately, they can quickly find their way indoors, especially during periods of heat or rain. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention so we can have the property inspected and treated again if needed. Your feedback helps us improve the experience for future guests.

  A perfect place for a week long solitary retreat. Close to the Lewes Beach and everything else you could possibly want. Very quiet, probably because it was so late in the season, but this is my third year staying at this cottage and I have already reserved it for next year.

  • Manager Responded on 11/2/2025

    Thank you for sharing your experience! It means so much that the cottage is your go-to spot for a peaceful getaway. We love that you appreciate the quiet atmosphere and the convenience of being close to Lewes Beach and everything else. Knowing you’ve already secured your stay for a fourth year is the best review we could ask for. See you next season! Lewes Rental Team

  Very small place but has everything you need for a short stay in Lewes. The double bed was cozy 🥴. Location is awesome, just a couple blocks to the beach. Good place for a short stay as just a couple or single visitor.

  • Manager Responded on 10/9/2025

    Thanks so much for the wonderful review! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and found our place to be cozy and have everything you needed. The central location is definitely one of our favorite things about it, and we're happy to hear you took advantage of being so close to the beach. We hope to welcome you back to Lewes again soon!

  Charming cottage in a great location...easy walk to the beach and to town.
  There is an efficient kitchen, full size washer and dryer, and outdoor shower.
  The double bed is comfortable but I would suggest bringing your own pillows !
  Many good restaurants in Lewes, a great library, and lovely hiking at the State Park.

  • Manager Responded on 9/29/2025

    Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We are so glad you enjoyed the cottage's location and found the amenities like the kitchen and washer/dryer useful. We agree, Lewes has so much to offer, from the great restaurants to the beautiful State Park! We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Lewes Rental Team

  Property condition:

  Mike M from Baltimore, MD does not recommend this vacation rental.

  For the price, location is good. Two short blocks to beach. Close to bridge to town. Private, fenced in outdoor area was great and as much space as indoors or more. Trex deck, outdoor shower, table and chairs with umbrella.
  However, inside was cluttered, not clean, and had many ants and flies. Every horizontal surface had some kind of knick-knack so there was no place to put anything. Bedspread was dirty, and went into the washer immediately. The sinks were wiped, but kitchen counter was perpetually sticky, no matter how much we scrubbed, and the floor was filthy.
  Spent the first night killing hundreds of ants. The mgmt co was responsive to the complaint and dropped off some traps, but said ants were due to heavy rains and that the exterminator had been out the week before. With many traps and spray, the ants never went away all week so we ended up leaving early.

  • Manager Responded on 6/18/2025

    Thank you for your feedback, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your stay. We understand how frustrating it can be to deal with ants, and while we did respond promptly with traps, we regret that the issue persisted. Please know that we take this seriously and have already scheduled a more comprehensive pest control treatment to prevent this from happening in the future. Your comfort is our top priority, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention so we can improve for future guests. We hope you'll consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with a better experience.

  Elizabeth M from Kirtland, OH recommends this vacation rental

  Great location close to the Lewes public beach. Cottage is just the right size for one or two people. Plenty of things to do and see in Lewes and a short drive to Rehoboth Beach, but the traffic is sometimes heavy.
  Be sure to check out the Lewes Bakery Shop and the Antiques Mall in downtown Lewes. And check the Lewes Historical Society for the evening walking tour.
  I’m short so I had to use one of the footstools from the living room to reach the dishes and bowls in the cupboard above the stove, but everything else was great. Front porch with a rocker and large back porch if you want a little sun.
  Not sure if people are in the big house if the back porch is shared but I didn’t have to deal with that. The area was very quiet the week I was there, and I have reserved the cottage for the same week next year.

  Just enough for two people who wanted to get away for a week. Everything as advertised. Made good use of the small amount of space available. Had all of the necessary items we needed for a week's stay. Would like to see screens on all windows, rear screen door, and the bed off the floor to enhance the rental.

  Walter E from Danville, PA does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Minor issues: No toaster provided. No hair dryer provided. No wine glasses.
  Major issue. As you face the property from the street you will see a large tree whose branches are in contact with the roof of the property. The branches are directly over the bedroom. During a rain storm with high winds the branches continually dragged across the metal roof preventing me and my wife from getting any sleep. As the weather forecast showed continued wind for the next night as well we were forced to cut our stay and return home a day early.

  Glenn and Dorcas L from Leola, PA recommends this vacation rental

  Cozy cottage close to Cape Henlopen where other family members stayed. Enjoyed the well-stocked kitchen, walking to Lewes historic and canal sites, and the bayside beach. Loved the small, shaded side porch for morning coffee and mid-day rest. Comfort level of the bed was average. The addition of a screen door to the deck would be a lovely improvement.
