Lovely property, in nice convenient locale to main part of Lewes, but one twin-bedded room had windows painted shut that would not open. I would get property manager to ensure that this has been fixed before booking again. AC is mostly downstairs seeping to upward floor. In hot weather, this might be a bit awkward whether to have windows upstairs open or closed. Thankfully we had nice cool weather for our stay.

Perfect house for a family vacation
What a lovely house! The house is perfectly situated near the main street and is just a short drive or walk to the beach. The space was very clean, nicely furnished, and comfortably fit my whole family. My kids loved playing in the back yard and exploring the Zwaanendael Park just down the street. We can't wait to go back!

Amazing vacation spot to reunite with friends
The perfect spot to gather with close friends and all of our children. Plenty of space for eight. Walkable to the beach (but about .5 miles) and just blocks from downtown, this home is convenient to everything Lewes has to offer. Best of all, it is a wonderful place to just hang out, especially the back yard. The enclosed gazebo kept the bugs away, and the fenced in yard kept the kids in. We lucked out with weather, but had it been rainy, the home would have still accommodated a successful stay. Kitchen was fully stocked and suitable for a week of elaborate cooking. Highly recommended and we will be back!

Fantastic property!
The house and property were great! Awesome location if you are visiting Lewes. It is away from the traffic madness of Rehoboth, but also convenient to that area if you are interested in visiting (we had to go back to the Purple Parrot in Rehoboth because their crab cake sandwich is worth the traffic and parking!!)
We enjoyed walking to the stores and restaurants in downtown historic Lewes and took a sunset cruise from the canal! Also enjoyed the Tuesday concert in the park (again, within walking distance). The bike rentals from Seagreen bicycles were great, convenient to the Junction Breakwater trail (all flat trail and diverse trail..and we are NOT bikers!)
The house itself is amazing. Very well maintained and updated, but great charm! We had everything we needed and more! Backyard with gazebo also impressive.
All positive, nothing negative at all.
We hope we get back to Lewes..if we do, we 100% would rent this house again! Had great communication with the property manager throughout the process.
