♦︎ Waterfront ♦︎ Pet Friendly ♦︎ Broadkill Beach ♦︎

“I have, as it were, my own sun and moon and stars, and a little world all to myself.” ― Henry David Thoreau, Walden

Clear your mind and relax in all that nature has to offer, welcome to Snow Goose, a bright open bungalow. Nestled among the evergreens and beach plums, just steps from the sandy dunes of Broadkill Beach. Two bedrooms and one bath, we have queen beds in each bedroom and a twin daybed in the main living area.


Broadkill Beach is located on the Delaware Bay, just north of Cape Henlopen and Lewes Beach. Broadkill offers public beach access for swimming, surf fishing, and boating and kayaking in the gentle waters. As a natural beach, there are no lifeguards. The community is surrounded by Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge and Beach Plumb Island Nature Preserve, making it a haven for nature lovers and bird watchers and other wildlife. Broadkill Beach is an official sanctuary for horseshoe crabs, the state marine animal of Delaware and a "signature species" of the Delaware Bay Estuary. Truly a magical place.

Rehoboth Beach is approximately 20 minutes south of Broadkill Beach.
The only business located in Broadkill Beach is The Broadkill Store, a general store sometimes referred to by locals as the "Broadkill Mall," which sells sandwiches, grocery items, bait & tackle, beach toys, souvenirs and homemade donuts on the weekends.

Historic Milton offers shopping, dining and Night life. The Milton Theatre, restored local venue offers comedy, music and eclectic performances. Dogfish Head Brewery always has a party, tastings, mammoth grill always cooking something tasty.

Great little beach house
Excellent place for a couple or a small family who are just looking for relaxing days at the beach. The little house has just about everything you need including a great deck for evening sitting. TIP - Bring lots of bug spray, Broadkill is know for it biting flies.

Peaceful, relaxing weekend
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Snow Goose property on Broadkill Beach. The property was very clean and well maintained. We were just steps away from a quiet, non-crowded beach. We are already planning our next stay. I highly recommend this property if you're looking for a relaxing getaway in a charming location.

At the beach
The location is awesome. One step from a year round dog friendly beach. A rare find. This is a location to come to to get away and relax / away from the crowds as it is off the beaten trail. With that thought in mind the kitchen area becomes more important. While it served its purpose we are excited to see what Terry does to make even better when we return!

Quiet getaway
This is our second time staying here and the house fits our needs perfectly. From the short walk to the beach or the close proximity to golf or Lewes for dinner. The house is starting to show its age but would not stop me from renting again. Power washing the house and getting a 5th chair for the table would go a long way. I would give the house a 10 out of 10

Great house
Perfect place for two people and a dog. Great beach access - some houses to the north do not due to some erosion. Owner was quick to accommodate an additional day. This is our third time renting this house and it won’t be our last.

Snow Goose Delivers!
Snow Goose, right on Broadkill Beach, was just perfect for a quiet friends' week for me and two girlfriends. The house is small and very nicely kept, and the location is a dream: on a quiet street, right down the way from the Broadkill Store and literally facing the bay, with easy access to a super-quiet sand beach. Plus, it's a really short, easy drive to Milton town center (with a small restaurants and cafes, Walgreens, a full-sized grocery and liquor store, etc.) and just a drive up the highway from the busier Lewes. Owner Terry was great, answering questions and making our stay easy. Recommend for anyone wanting a chill Delaware oasis outside of the more tourist-centric beaches!

Wonderful Spot for a Family Vacation with Littles
Snow Goose is an amazing spot for a low key family vacation with toddlers and a small dog. We'd walk onto the beach every morning and play for several hours. Then in the afternoon, we'd check out Prime Hook, Henlopen State Park, or Lewes. Super relaxing, perfect location.

Very nice place to stay for a family vacation.
Overall my family had a very nice vacation here. We would come back again. The location is nice. The house is nice and spacious for the amount of people we had. The deck was very nice for outside relaxing. We had to cleen some cooking utensils and plates before using them. The path to the beach was very grown in and we had to break off some branches of the bushes to walk through. Also the head to the outside showe came off while my wife was using it and almost hit her. It went back on, but i don't think it is very secure. Aside from the small things, it it a very nice.place to stay.
