Not as nice as pictured.
We had a difficult time sleeping there the first night and upon waking decided to move out and find a hotel. The property management company kept talking about the age of the property but that was not the problem, it was the organization and cleanliness of the interior. The carpet had a strong mildew smell and urine in areas. When we went to make beds, one of the mattress pads had a urine stain. We found silverfish on the baby portacrib. This place was not even as nice as a cheap motel, and literally gave me the creeps.

Great location in South Bethany!
This property is in a wonderful location - right on the canals and super easy access to beach. Win-Le (the property management co. does a great job with everything (communication, etc). A short walk to the end of the street and it's an easy cross to the ocean side, with safe crosswalk and traffic control. After you cross the street, a short block to the beach. South Bethany is fairly quiet and always a nice relaxing getaway. Staying on the canal side allows for easy boating or kayaking. We rented kayaks and had them delivered and it worked out great. The house is well cared for - furniture is a bit dated and some of it is not super comfortable. Bedrooms were nice. The kitchen is equipped, but if you're doing a lot of cooking it is the bare basics, and also some fairly dated/ well used items. Coffee maker uses coffee pods only!! There is a very nice sunroom at the back, along the canal. No outside seating (deck/patio) out back by the water.

Great location
The the house was welcoming, and a great place to wake up before any family adventures. The location is a short walk from the beach for a quick sunrise walk or long stay with family and friends. I highly recommend a stay here with your family for a relaxing vacation you all deserve!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The rooms are a good size and the sunroom was an added bonus. We bought our boat and used the dock. Any issues we had were taken care of immediately by the property manager. We would highly recommend this property to others. Thank you for a great stay!!!

Perfect for a relaxing beach getaway
This cottage property was absolutely perfect for our family trip to Bethany Beach. It was only a short drive from Bethany Beach proper, but with the wonderful added benefit of a quiet neighborhood and short walk to the beach. We drove to Bethany daily for different restaurants and visiting the boardwalk. It was also a nice property for our 7month and 2 year old - 1 floor/no steps, spacious living room area and enclosed porch were safe areas for the kids to play. Some items in the kitchen were a bit dated, but it was added character that we didn’t mind at all. New washer and dryer were a great asset to us! The property doesn’t have ‘baby’ gear but we used a local rental company to drop off and pick up for our stay and it worked great for us! We are already excited to plan a trip next year and if we return to Bethany we would absolutely stay here again.

Great Stay. Perfect Property
We loved this house. Great location, very clean, wish there was some type of outdoor furniture or patio area so you could enjoy the view of the canals, other than that perfect.

Perfect family house
Cute 3 bedroom house just a few minutes walk to the beach. Water access in back was a bonus. Perfect amount of space for our family of 5 and very easy to get to everything in Bethany.
