Cool Little Cottage Minutes forFrom Beaches, Shopping and Dining

800 Sq. Ft. cottage on the edge of Red Mill Pond near Lewes. Pond view and plenty of privacy. Located on a one lane development with quick access to Coastal Hwy which is the main artery to beach

Just minutes from downtown Lewes, seven miles from Rehoboth Beach and tax-free shopping at the outlets, and over 100 restaurants.

Relax on the front porch after your day in the sun or in the Adirondack chairs in the back yard sand. This light and airy retreat comfortably sleeps two, Fully furnished large upstairs bedroom has a queen size bed, dresser and armoire. Downstairs consists of the living area, kitchen, dining area, bathroom and closet space. Kitchen is completely stocked with coffee pot, microwave, stove and all dishes and pans needed to cook your own meal. Sheets and bath towels are supplied.

Escape the confines of condo living and hotel rooms for the freedom of your own cottage near the beach.

"At this house on Pond View Drive we have salt in our hair, sun-kissed skin, sand in our toes, drinks on the porch and summer in our souls."

Ferry Goers locale, near shopping and short jaunt to Beach

What a cute cottage and wonderfully decorated! The expanding table to serve as both a desk and a dining table was a genius space saver/multitasker. Another great addition was the Bluetooth tower speaker to enjoy your own playlists. Again...a well thought out cottage, and kudos for the little touches like the makeup area complete with a hook for hanging a hairdryer (brought my own, but there is a hair dryer here for your use) and the bedside sound machine. Fantastic a.m. coffee sitting on the front porch rockers with the cool breeze and lake view!

Cozy Cottage

I highly recommend this property and location. The cottage is gorgeous and has all the amenities of home. We went to Cape Henelopen during the day enjoyed both the ocean and the bay views. Spent time on the boardwalk in Rehoboth as well. We also enjoyed sitting out on the front porch and enjoying morning time together.

Absolutely Beautiful!

We had a fabulous stay in the cottage! Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Location was amazing and within minutes of everything in town. On a quiet street with peace and tranquility. We came to Lewes for our Honeymoon and loved it so much - We plan on making it our yearly vacation spot!

Great cottage for vacation. We stayed here with four people and enjoyed everything about this house. It's Easy to get to as it is just off route 1. Very clean, comfortable and quiet. I recommend this for any family of four or smaller.

Perfect size for two people. Traffic noise is definitely an issue if you want to sit outside. We had to turn the fan on upstairs to drown out the traffic noise in order to sleep. Location is convenient to downtown Lewes. Cute cottage.

Always an amazing stay!

I have stayed at this house with my boys going on 4 years now and we have never been disappointed. The house is super cute and has been immaculately clean every time. Lewes Beach is a really short drive, as is Rehoboth Beach. Joanne has always been a great host and is very responsive. I have to say, it's the best place I have stayed at by far. We can't wait to return again next year!

Beautiful Cottage, Great Getaway!

The cottage is beautiful and so cozy! We loved our stay in Lewes. The cottage is super clean (I'm very particular) and it is a great location if you want to visit several of the beaches. We especially liked Cape Henlopen. Our favorite restaurant was Salt Air in Rehoboth, but there are a lot of options in the area. Joanne is great to work with and makes sure you have a smooth stay. Recommend, recommend, recommend!

Just enough

This cottage was super easy to get to ( although the address is Pondview Drive and the street you turn off of is Red Mill Manor). Once we realized this, its right off of route 1, close to route 9 , town of Lewes and close to Rehoboth . The house is just right for a couple. The bed was comfortable, the house had everything we needed for our stay. We enjoyed the little touches the owner provider ( like a lighted makeup mirror). We would definitely consider staying here again!

Cozy Cottage

Our second visit to the Cool Little Cottage exceeded all expectations, just like our first time. We were instantly captivated by its charm and beauty. The accurate description and vivid pictures truly reflect what awaits you. The cottage's prime location, mere minutes away from the beach and local restaurants, added to our overall enjoyment. We spent our mornings spent on the front porch and evening around the fire in the backyard. The host's delightful nature and prompt responsiveness to our inquiries only enhanced our experience. Without a doubt, we are already eagerly planning our return for another unforgettable weekend getaway next year.

Fall Vacation

The cottage was just as I expected it to be - quaint, cozy, close to the beach and everything a person could want for a Fall getaway. I had cancer last year and the first 6 months of this year were very stressful and I just needed to get away from everyone and everything. I walked on the Lewes beach every morning and evening, enjoyed the front porch for relaxing in the evenings and basically was able to de-stress and enjoy my own company. I lived in Lewes during the summers I was in college so I am very familiar with the area. If I decide to do this again next year and the cottage is available, I'll be back.

Lovely cottage!

The cottage is lovely for a stay in the Lewes/Rehoboth Beach area. We loved the porch and sitting outside in the rocking chairs watching the birds. There is a nice back yard with a fire pit, tiki torches, and a grill. Bed is small but comfortable. Nicely designed and beachy-like. All you need for cooking. Only negative is it’s very close to the highway so you hear the roar of the constant traffic. If you are looking for perfect silence, this isn’t the spot. We placed our speaker towards the road and turned up the music which helped. Overall great though and we would stay there again.

Bright, well kept ,cheery cottage. Easy access to old town Lewes and highway to beach

Comfortable , clean, light , cheery. Although caveat: if visitor is older or physically impaired the bedroom is upstairs. Bathroom is on main level, and may be difficult to navigate at night considering stair risers are out of code and too high and difficult to walk down and kind of steep. Also bed mattress is extremely high. I had to jump on or lay flat and roll on. 5’2” tall. Yard is immaculate. Driveway convenient . Porch is charming. Hostess contacted us of a potential tornado , very thoughtful . You’ll have a good stay
