This is a cottage in the private beach community in the Primehook National Wildlife Refuge which has over 8,000 acres of untouched beauty. The community is 5 miles off Route 1 and is small and relaxed!

As mentioned previously, we have a new patio where you can grill, eat and view the beach as well as enjoy the late afternoon breeze.

The cottage has three bedrooms but can accommodate additional sleepers via couch, sofa bed (full mattress), and air mattress (queen).

15 minutes to Milton for grocery and shopping center; 15 minutes to Lewes; 25 minutes to Rehoboth and Dewey beaches if you want shopping (outlets and small, unique stores), movies, restaurants, jet ski, bike rentals, etc.

Keywords: 3Br/1Ba Beach cottage, refurbished bedrooms, new AC/Heat, new windows, new bathroom, w/d, new septic. Right on beach. Can have bonfires on beach, sleep on beach, etc. Dogs can be off-leash.

The house and location were excellent and host was very accommodating. You do need to bring your own linens for the whole house which isn’t in the description . The washer/dryer is extremely loud and takes a long time and indoor shower is hard to get a “normal” temp. Outdoor shower worked great.

Beautiful Beach Cottage

We had such a great stay. The cottage’s back yard is the beach, it’s so close and peaceful. The house itself is super cute and bigger than we expected. The remodeled kitchen is gorgeous with a lot of counter space and cabinets for storage. We hope to come again next summer 😊

Paradise!!!

Our stay was absolutely perfect in every way. The beach house is so pretty and clean. If you love to cook, the kitchen has EVERYTHING you’ll need. The beach is your backyard and we made fires on the beach every night. Everyone we talked to was super friendly! We already booked for next year and can’t wait to go back.

awesome, quiet location

Just got back from an amazing week at Sandy's cottage - it was great! The home was just as advertised and very clean. The new kitchen is great and having laundry right in the home was very convenient! The big TV was great when we all needed some downtime, and the location was very quiet. We enjoyed the beach out front, as well as easy excursions to Lewes, Cape Henlopen and Rehobeth. Highly recommend!

Updated and nice location

The house worked out perfect for our dogs and was located in a nice location to walk out the door to the beach. It takes a little time to get to the bigger beaches but if you want less hassle and quiet it is perfect. The house set up was perfect and everything was updated and well thought out. I highly recommend this rental.

Cozy Cottage

We enjoyed our stay! The cottage is well kept and cozy with great upgrades and a lovely new kitchen. Beach access is incredibly convenient. The patio area is perfect for outside meals and the rockers on the porch are a great place to unwind. Definitely dog friendly! Also, the host communicated clearly and responded immediately when we encountered a minor issue with an appliance.Overall a terrific place!
