Cozy Waterfront Retreat – Dog Friendly & Fully Stocked!

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, spotting 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!

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

Wonderful weekend getaway
Loved our stay at this pretty house. Location is perfect. Tranquil bay on one side and short walk to the beach on the other. Lewes and Rehoboth within 15 minutes. The house had all the amenities we needed . We slept well on the beds and the showers had wall units of shampoo, conditioner and body wash. I'm already planning our next stay !

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.

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.

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!

Adorable Bay Getaway
Chris and Nick’s home is so sweet! The perfect size and location for a family with young kids. We appreciated the well supplied kitchen (all the tools you need for cooking at home), the proximity to the beach and the gorgeous view from the back deck. We had a wonderful stay and hope to book again soon!

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.

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!!

Absolutely everything was perfect! Super cozy beach house in the perfect location only steps away from the beach. We enjoyed sunrises on the beach, sunsets and birdwatching on the deck, and everything in between. We loved that the house was stocked with everything you could possible need and we especially appreciated that it was dog friendly!
