Pet-Friendly Bayside retreat with amazing view! Steps to the beach!

Come see these amazing sunsets for yourself! Prime Hook Beach is on the Delaware Bay located off Rt. 1. Close to towns like Rehoboth and Lewes, but away from all the crowds! The bay has a natural beach with gentle waves and a gradual slope. Perfect for kids and dogs! Great place to hunt for seashells or see horseshoe crabs. Our house backs to the wildlife refuge with the sandy beach access right across the residential street.

Our house is 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths with an open floor plan and water views from every window. Two bedrooms with queen sized beds and one bedroom with full sized bunks. Sleeps 6. Full kitchen including large fridge, gas stove and large toaster oven that can fit a casserole dish and pizza. *We do not have a full oven. All pots, pans, dishes and servingware is included! We have a drip coffee maker as well as a Keurig. Coffee, creamer and sugar is provided!

Bring your dog! Both our house and the beach are pet friendly. Just make sure to clean up after your pet both in the home and on the beach and they must remain on a leash outside.

Fully stocked including all bed linens and bath towels, paper towels, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, kitchen essentials and some beach supplies you are welcome to use. We even have baby items such as a pack n play, high chair, bouncer, play mats and toys! Gas grill on the side deck waiting for you to cook out. *The supply can change periodically. We cannot guarantee the condition of any of these items.

Work with a view! We have excellent wifi in the main living areas, and a wifi extender for the back bedrooms.

Enjoy the beautiful sunsets on the new sectional on our large back deck or sunrises from the front sun room. Come experience all of the peacefulness our house has to offer!

Big updates in February 2023! You asked, we listened! New paint, new hardwood flooring in the bedrooms, new furniture, new lighting, new kitchenware, updated storage and more! We take our reviews very seriously and are committed to giving everyone a 5 star stay!

Please note: We have an outdoor security camera facing the driveway to monitor the property.

Best DE beach experience
My family has been going to the DE beaches every year for 6 years now. We have been to various beaches and stayed in very nice VRBO properties. But everyone agrees that this is by far the best experience we have had! I would highly recommend this property to everyone, including families with young children or a romantic retreat for a couple.

Wild and Wonderful
We happened to stay at the beach house during a wind and flood advisory, and we still loved it. We can't wait to go back. It was a beautiful and peaceful off-season retreat. The beaches and wildlife sanctuary make this a particular spot for wildlife lovers, but beautiful restaurants are just a drive away. I appreciate that the owners have bikes and kayaks available and that our fur babies were welcome! This is a GEM!!

Great location with spectacular views
My family, my fur baby and I had a wonderful and relaxing trip. The home is in a quiet neighborhood with access to a private beach. The beach was lovely and did not disappoint in any way. The views from the back deck were a sight to behold. The home had everything we needed, and the owner, Christine, was very responsive and helpful. The home was just as described and highly recommended.

Great family getaway!
We had such a nice time at Chris and Nick’s bayside retreat! The home was so clean and welcoming. The minute we walked in we felt instantly rejuvenated. Being on the nature preserve and right across the street from the bay made it such a perfect and peaceful spot. The kids loved morning walks on the beach, and bird watching from the back. We hope to go back!

Relaxing trip
Chris & Nick’s home was exactly what we needed…a break from the hustle & bustle of every day life. Myself, my husband, 2 children & our fur baby stayed here for a long Thanksgiving weekend. It was quiet & peaceful. The home had everything we could’ve needed, plus more! My toddler loved all of the fun toys she discovered in the bunk bed room! There were loads of board games & puzzles too! The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed also. We enjoyed the very short walk to the beach, where we went for daily walks, did seashell hunting, flipped a bunch of horseshoe crabs (there were TONS of them) and my son enjoyed fishing & discovering the wildlife. It was chilly while we were there, but that didn’t stop us. We bundled up and had the best family time. It was a wonderful weekend, we would absolutely love to stay here again.

Peaceful Location - So Happy To Return to This Special Place!
We have stayed here several times over the years. We were blessed with great, unusually warm weather this visit and enjoyed many a beautiful sunrise over the ocean and sunsets over the bay. Our dog was so happy to be included in our vacation. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

Lovely place to unwind.
Nicely located on a quiet and picturesque strip of land between the bay and a creek (that looked more like a lake). Cottage was very clean, very comfortable and had eveything we needed. Plenty of indoor seating as well as a nice outdoor couch for sunset viewing. Kitchen well appointed. Lots of information supplied by hosts. We thank Chris and Nick for sharing their place with us.
