Top secret getaway
We had an event in Dover over the weeked and wanted to stay somewhere close but still have a little adventure and this place hit the spot. The house is spotless and beautifully decorated and made for a great getaway when added to the whole Bowers Beach experience. The history of this area is rich and though it's in the middle of everything it's almost untouched by time. We spent the day at Rehobeth, and nothing against driving in circles for a half hour looking for a parking place, but man coming back here and walking on the silent beach, watching the tiny bay waves lap the sand, seeing the sun turn the sky all the colors over the bay, watching the river flow the opposite direction as the tide comes back in, checking out the food truck and the new outdoor big screen at JP's, it just couldn't have been a better weekend. The house is wonderful, the porch is perfect, it's tremendously clean, and it's a just a stroll across the parking lot for a cold beer and fresh fish. We would absolutely stay here again, next time though we'll skip the boardwalk at RB and just stay here the whole time.

Great sleepy town!!!
Great place. We had a blast!!! The town is small and quiet. Bay has a great beach for the kids just a walk down the quiet street, and great fishing for me! Restaurant was great. Good food and right on the water. Icecream parlor right nextdoor too! House was super clean and well stockedwith everything we needed. We wish we were staying longer!!! Thank you Scott for your help getting us started.

Excellent Stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at Scott and Rachel's Bowers beach retreat. The property is exactly as it looks in pictures- so clean, fresh, and comfortable! My mom kept insisting it must have been professionally decorated because it looked so nice lol. The check in process was quick and easy with key pad access, and Scott even let us know ahead of time that the property would be available an hour ahead of the listed check in time in case we arrived early which was not expected and really nice. We were already familiar with the area, so found the location as expected and as described. There were so many small extra touches at this property- beach chairs and supplies for use, sunscreen, an outdoor shower for rinsing off your feet after spending time in the sand, a drawer full of spices in the kitchen to name a few. I really have nothing negative to say about this property what so ever! We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely book again in the future. Thank you Scott and Rachel!
