Primehaven- A wonderful retreat in this unique bayside village!

Welcome to paradise! Primehaven, in Primehook Beach, DE is back to nature with all the comforts of home. Out the back door you have an open deck with beautiful views of Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge, great for bird watching and relaxing as the evening sun sets in the west. Out front you enjoy a beautiful sunrise and are just steps away from two entrances to a dog-friendly, not crowded beach on the Delaware Bay. Yes, our house is pet friendly with a pet fee (please make sure you count your pet on your search for open dates)!

Primehaven is the perfect place to unwind, relax and enjoy time with family and friends. The house is a recently built (2012), open and airy, sanctuary that sleeps 6-7 people. The 1st floor of the house has an open living area which includes a large living room with cathedral ceiling, the deck, and a large kitchen, all with views of the wildlife refuge. This level also includes a queen bedroom suite with a full bath, a laundry room and powder room.

The second bedroom is actually a large second floor loft overlooking the ground floor as well as the wildlife refuge. It has an open architecture as well, has a queen and two single beds and a trundle bed, and an office area (but who wants to work?), and of course, a full bath. Windows on the east side provide an overview of the bay and the community and to the west look over the beautiful refuge.

Family meals? The house has a well equipped kitchen and a dining area. We do not have a dish washing machine but do provide paper places if you don't want to wash the dishes! Beach toys? The house has many beach chairs to choose from, kites, boogie boards and large floats/boogie boards.

We hope you enjoy the time to unwind and escape the beach crowds to spend quiet time with family and friends. Please keep in mind that this is a private beach and is not a groomed beach.

Notes-
1. The TV in the cottage is a smart TV. Should you desire, you may use your Netflix, Hulu (etc) account on that TV. Please make sure you sign out of your account before you leave!

2. We do not provide linens. Please bring 2 sets of queen sheets, 3 twin sets for beds and a queen-ish set if you plan to use the pull out couch and towels for the bath and beach. If you prefer to rent them please visit 227rent.com and they can drop off and pick up anything you will need.

This was our second stay at this property. It is Clean, a 1 min walk to the beach and we had great communication with the host. The 4th of July parade is always a good time. Husband and kids love to fish from the beach. Even the dog had a great time! We will keep coming back.

This home is very nice and inviting. The views of the marsh are spectacular and there is even a view of the bay from the upstairs loft area! We loved watching the sunsets on the porch and taking walks on the beach. The owners of this property were great and responded very quickly to our questions. My husband and I had a wonderful time.

This is a beautiful comfortable house with a fantastic kitchen next to a pretty quiet beach. We got several gorge sunsets on the back deck over the view of the marsh. We loved staying there. The open plan bedroom on the second floor makes the place feel spacious.

The house was amazing. The views were so pretty. Watching the sunset was so relaxing. The beach... just couldn't get enough. My son absolutely loved the horseshoe crabs! Restaurants and shopping only a 15- 20 minutes drive. To be surrounded by the wildlife refuge was the best part!
