How did you get a king size bed up. Spiral staircase???
Great location on the bay, walking distance to everything. The private beach was nice for watching the sunset A few things could be updated , like the beds and the sliding glass door out to the screened in porch is a bit sticky and an older version. The top floor primary bedroom is a like a little oasis with a beautiful view.

Great spot in Dewey
First time staying in Dewey and it was quieter than we thought. Great location and a quick walk to a lot of restaurants and bands. Easy for teen to hop on the Jolly Trolly at the end of the street and take it to Rehoboth. Couldn’t beat the views and just an overall wonderful family spot!

Best of both worlds
The property was ideally situated on the bay side with a private beach which made it great for our 6 1/2 year old granddaughter and my disa bled wife. It was only a few blocks down the street to the ocean and the beaches there. It was a really relaxing stay.

Beautiful spot!
The condo is very nice, all the beds were very comfortable and the kitchen is very updated and well stocked. The view is amazing and the bay beach out back is beautiful. We loved watching the sunsets! The master bedroom upstairs is gorgeous with lovely views and the bedroom with the twin beds is very spacious and bright. We especially loved that we could walk to Dewey Beach to see the ocean every morning and play in the waves. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Exactly what we were looking for
Had a wonderful impromptu getaway. We weren’t sure if we wanted to be closer to the ocean or on the bay. Hands down the screened in porch to hang out and watch the bay with our coffee and the sunset while playing games was absolutely what we wanted. The home had everything we were looking for/needed inside. Only thing that was awkward for us was having to bring towels and linens- I’ve never been requested to do that and had to find some xl twin sheets via friends. We are already making plans for our next trip ! The owner was fantastic and easy to work with!

Perfect beach getaway!
The view from the screened in porch is everything!! We stayed several nights with two other couples and had a lovely time. It’s close to the beach, on the bay with its own little beach, and the views are fantastic. It was clean and had two parking spaces (we got a third parking space from the “town of Dewey” kiosk for the third couples car and those spots (green spots) were right across from the condo. Walking distance to all restaurants in Dewey (we loved Starboard Raw the most) and just a great weekend!

Owner was great, very responsive which helped with planning. We stayed for a quick weekend getaway, which included grandparents, young adults and a teen. The location was great. It offered something for everyone to do (together or solo). The screened porch was a bonus as the view was breathtaking. Everyone jockeyed for a spot out there, lol. Good times for all and we hope to return for a longer stay in the near future.

Perfect location
Owner was very responsive & easy to communicate with, we had an issue with the stove breaker upon arrival, but it was an easy fix. Other than a few scuff marks on the wall behind the headboard in the master bedroom, the only item of concern was the smoke detectors have been taken out of the walls. We understand we were the 1st renters of 2023 & things can be overlooked. It was a great location, we would stay here again.

Perfect Location!
We stayed at Janie's place as two families with an infant and two 4 year olds. The location is perfect, just far enough off the main strip that it wasn't too loud but an easy walk to great restaurants and the beach, and then an easy trolley to Funland for the kids. The private beach within Snug Harbor also can't be beat - perfect spot for the kids to play after dinner while the parents enjoyed a glass of wine and watched the sunset! A few things to be mindful of are that the 4th "bedroom" is immediately off the living room/kitchen so, if you were planning to use that for a younger child, it may not work for you. There are also a lot of stairs (one of which is a spiral to the primary bedroom) and pack and plays will only fit in two of the three main bedrooms. Overall, Janie was an incredibly responsive and accommodating host and the place was clean, neighbors were respectful, and we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you, Janie!

A special place // a true gem
Somehow lucked into a late booking for this special place. Was told it was a place for family and a great place for kids. Not only was it great for our family but we felt like family for the way the owners welcomed and helped us. It’s a truly unique spot with a private beach on the bay. Our kids were able to explore and play — practically alone — for hours on end. The location is central in Dewey so we barely needed to get in the car. And the walk to the ocean is mere minutes. My only hesitation booking this place is that it may make it harder for us to get dates for next year! Do yourself a favor - book some time here. And make sure to be home for sunsets over the Bay. If you put on the 1812 Overture just at the right time, you may weep as my father and I did — watching the big red ball give itself over to the other half of the world, but sprinkling magic pinks and orange dust across the Bay as it does. “Again” my children yelled together.
