Cozy Waterfront Cottage– Dog Friendly & Fully Stocked! Incredible View!

Experience Stunning Sunsets at Prime Hook Beach!

Escape the crowds and unwind at Prime Hook Beach, a hidden gem on the Delaware Bay just off Route 1. Conveniently located near Rehoboth and Lewes, this peaceful retreat offers a natural beach with gentle waves and a gradual slope—perfect for kids and dogs to swim safely. Spend your days searching for seashells, flipping horseshoe crabs, or simply relaxing by the water.

Our home backs onto a beautiful wildlife refuge, providing a serene backdrop for your stay, with sandy beach access just steps away across the quiet residential street.
Our home offers the perfect blend of comfort and coastal charm, featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and an open-concept floor plan with water views from every window. The sleeping arrangements include two bedrooms with queen sized beds and one bedroom with full over full bunk beds. The house sleeps 6 total.

The fully equipped kitchen includes a large fridge, gas stove, full dishwasher and a spacious toaster oven (fits a casserole dish or pizza). Please note: we do not have a full oven. We provide all pots, pans, dishes, and serving ware, along with a drip coffee maker and Keurig—plus coffee, creamer, and sugar to get you started! You may even fire up the gas grill on the side deck and enjoy a cookout!

Bring your furry friend—our home and the beach are dog-friendly! We kindly ask that you clean up after your pet and keep them on a leash when outside.

Thoughtfully Stocked for Your Convenience

We’ve taken care of the details, so you can relax! Your stay includes:
✔ All bed linens & bath towels
✔ Paper products & cleaning supplies
✔ Shampoo, conditioner, body wash & hair dryer
✔ Kitchen essentials & some beach gear (availability may vary)
✔ Baby items (pack ‘n play, high chair, bouncer, play mats & toys)

Need to stay connected? We offer WiFi in the main living areas, plus a WiFi extender for the back bedrooms.

Unwind on our large back deck with a new sectional, perfect for taking in the breathtaking sunsets. Or, sip your morning coffee in the front sunroom while watching the sunrise.

Come experience the peaceful beauty of Prime Hook Beach—you won’t want to leave!

IMPORTANT NOTICE
As of September 1st, 2026, we will no longer be renting out our beloved bayside retreat. Over the past 10 years, we've been incredibly fortunate to share our home with so many wonderful guests-families making memories, couples celebrating honeymoons, babies enjoying their first beach days, and even dogs experiencing their first (and sometimes last) adventures by the sea.
This was not an easy decision, but we remain committed to providing a five-star experience for every guest until our final rental day.
Thank you again for a decade of memories.
With gratitude,
Chris and Nick

Our time at this cozy cottage was truly delightful! The house just sparkled when we walked in! The vistas from the back porch as well as all of the windows gave us wonderful scenery to enjoy. The walk across the street to the beach kept us going back for more!The well organized kitchen allowed us to prepare our meals efficiently and quickly. The beds were very comfortable and extra blankets and pillows were readily available. We also enjoyed excellent communication with our hosts. My grandson captured all of our thoughts about our the stay the best when he said, "It's so hard to leave! Can we come back?" We appreciate all the efforts that have gone into making our time at Prime Hook Beach so welcoming and so comfortable!

An absolute beautiful, clean, and peaceful sanctuary. We couldn’t believe how extremely well stocked the home was, from beach towels, bath towels, every paper product, cooking needs, tons of fresh linens. The view from the deck is absolute bliss. The beach is a short walk across the street. Beds are very comfortable, nice furniture to fit everyone. We enjoyed every moment of everyday, even when it wasn’t beach weather, we could still enjoy being on the spacious deck. We can’t wait to return to this gem.

Lovely beach house!! Best of both worlds with it being about 1 min walk across the street to the bay “beach” side and amazing views from the back deck of the bay. We had no issues with bugs biting on beach or bay side. You can hear the waves when in the living/dining room when you open the windows in the morning and the sunsets off the back deck are amazing. The house is fully stocked with anything you could need including paper products, coffee, towels, beach chairs/toys etc. It’s 15 min drive to town of Milton for groceries/pizza etc. and 20ish min drive to Lewes for a more beach town tourist vibe. The house has great vibes with it being so bright and airy. We used the outdoor shower all week! Loved walking the dogs in the neighborhood and friendly neighbors everywhere. We will be back soon! Thank you!

What a wonderful cottage on a peaceful and quiet location. Sunsets were amazing while we watched the birds fly around. Property was perfect size of family of 4 with a dog. Place was well stocked with everyday essentials along with cookware, coffee maker, etc. Christine was an amazing host! Great communication and responded quickly to any questions. If you are looking to get away from the crowds and noise of the beaches to the south, this is a great location and property!

This property surpassed our expectations! We stayed here with our four teenagers and two dogs. The property owner provided us with all the information we needed for check in/out several days in advance which helped us with last minute plans. The house was so convenient to reach the beach and the beach was so pleasant that we opted to skip making the drive to the ocean. We enjoyed some beautiful sunsets and even saw an amazing rainbow. The neighborhood was so peaceful and it was just a quick drive to reach other activities like dining and trails in the nature reserve. The garage/basement of the house held so many items that we could use. My only regret is that we didn't book a longer stay!

Amazing location

This was our first stay in Prime Hook and we will most definitely be back. It was so wonderful to stay away from the hustle of the main beach towns. The deck was perfection and we loved walks on the beach with the dogs. It was great that all the extras were included and Chris graciously checked in to be sure our needs were met. 5 stars!

Relaxing and peaceful getaway

Loved our trip to Primehook beach. This property has such a beautiful view from the back deck and is so close to the beach access. Loved how quiet and peaceful it was and that we could bring our dogs with us! Close enough to Rehoboth that we spent some time there as well to play mini golf and take the dogs for ice cream.

Peaceful, clean and comfortable

All the positive reviews are spot on - this place is a gem! Easy check in with key code. Very clean and comfortable, with so many household items available it feels like actually being hosted rather than just renting a room; which so many short term rentals feel like now. So nice to not have to pack your whole house for vacation. Enjoyed sunrise at the bay and sunsets on the deck. AC was nice and cold on a super hot week but added plus were the ceiling fans throughout the house - lovely touch! We made most meals at the house - kitchen has everything you could need. Owner was easy to chat with and helpful! Thank you for sharing your home & for accepting pets! We brought our foster dog and he saw the beach for the first time! The beach is not crowded - with people at least - bring bug spray! Enjoyed exploring the area down to Lewes/Cape Henlopen as well. Will be back!

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. There are beautiful views of the national wildlife refuge, and sunsets over it, from the back deck. Then a one minute walk over to the beach for the sunrises over the bay. The owners were also very friendly and responsive to any questions or issues we had.

Our family loved our stay at this property! It was so nice to enjoy the beach without massive crowds. The location is surrounded with natural beauty and you're really *in* nature. The bay waves were very calm and not intimidating for our young kids. It was an easy drive over to Lewes when we wanted to get out/find some more stuff to do. Christine was a great host- very responsive and helpful. Thank you! We can't wait to come back.
