This property surpassed our expectations! We stayed here with our four teenagers and two dogs. The property owner provided us with all the information we needed for check in/out several days in advance which helped us with last minute plans. The house was so convenient to reach the beach and the beach was so pleasant that we opted to skip making the drive to the ocean. We enjoyed some beautiful sunsets and even saw an amazing rainbow. The neighborhood was so peaceful and it was just a quick drive to reach other activities like dining and trails in the nature reserve. The garage/basement of the house held so many items that we could use. My only regret is that we didn't book a longer stay!

Amazing location

This was our first stay in Prime Hook and we will most definitely be back. It was so wonderful to stay away from the hustle of the main beach towns. The deck was perfection and we loved walks on the beach with the dogs. It was great that all the extras were included and Chris graciously checked in to be sure our needs were met. 5 stars!

Relaxing and peaceful getaway

Loved our trip to Primehook beach. This property has such a beautiful view from the back deck and is so close to the beach access. Loved how quiet and peaceful it was and that we could bring our dogs with us! Close enough to Rehoboth that we spent some time there as well to play mini golf and take the dogs for ice cream.

Peaceful, clean and comfortable

All the positive reviews are spot on - this place is a gem! Easy check in with key code. Very clean and comfortable, with so many household items available it feels like actually being hosted rather than just renting a room; which so many short term rentals feel like now. So nice to not have to pack your whole house for vacation. Enjoyed sunrise at the bay and sunsets on the deck. AC was nice and cold on a super hot week but added plus were the ceiling fans throughout the house - lovely touch! We made most meals at the house - kitchen has everything you could need. Owner was easy to chat with and helpful! Thank you for sharing your home & for accepting pets! We brought our foster dog and he saw the beach for the first time! The beach is not crowded - with people at least - bring bug spray! Enjoyed exploring the area down to Lewes/Cape Henlopen as well. Will be back!

Peaceful Retreat

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. There are beautiful views of the national wildlife refuge, and sunsets over it, from the back deck. Then a one minute walk over to the beach for the sunrises over the bay. The owners were also very friendly and responsive to any questions or issues we had. We would definately love to rent this home again, when we take another vacation down to Deleware!

Our family loved our stay at this property! It was so nice to enjoy the beach without massive crowds. The location is surrounded with natural beauty and you're really *in* nature. The bay waves were very calm and not intimidating for our young kids. It was an easy drive over to Lewes when we wanted to get out/find some more stuff to do. Christine was a great host- very responsive and helpful. Thank you! We can't wait to come back.

Great Getaway

My family loved our stay at this cottage at the beach. Can't beat the views and beach access. The cottage was clean and very well-stocked with basics (and more). For those traveling with young children, there was a nice selection of toys, games, and beach toys. It's also a great home base for exploring all the surrounding towns and beaches.

Perfect for families!

Do not hesitate to book a stay here! We traveled without 4 kids (ages 5-12) and had a wonderful stay. The location is beautiful- the kids loved watching the birds on the back deck. We had the beach to ourselves (just a short walk across the street). It’s a quiet neighborhood without traffic so we felt comfortable with our kids walking back and forth to the beach alone. The house has everything you could possibly need. Our youngest enjoyed the toys and the older kids enjoyed the bunks and the games. Not having an oven was not an issue even with our large family. They have a large convection oven and we used the grill. The location can’t be beat for families- a quiet, safe beach but close enough to other activities if you get tired of the beach. We hope to visit again soon! Thank you to the hosts for sharing your home!

Christmas getaway

Our family spent 2 christmas's here after my father passed and we needed a new tradition. The layout is perfect for a small family. Everything is on one level. The views out the back - spectacular sunsets. Quick walk to the beach to see the snow geese and a brisk walk. We've had to move on to a larger home with more bedrooms, otherwise, we'd still be booking here. The host provides excellent amenities and a stocked pantry (helpful for quick stays) and linens. Host goes above and beyond - my mom left her iPod there one year and we asked them to keep a lookout for it...months later they found it and mailed it back to us.

My parents and I came to Delaware to visit my son at the Airforce Base. We enjoyed our stay! The sunsets from the deck were beautiful. The beach was a short walk right across the street. The sand is soft and full of treasures. The cattage was just as advertised. Fully stocked with everything you could need. They supply outdoor toys as well! We would stay again!

Very Comfortable Home!

Our first trip to Prime Hook in the Fall and first time renting this house. It was exactly as described online which is always a relief! Prime Hook is spectacular in the Fall. The house has beautiful views in the back over the Marsh and the Preserve. The stars were just spectacular at night. A bonus is that you also have a pretty good view of the Delaware Bay out the front especially off the little deck on side of house. It's very well appointed and decorated. Christine, the owner, is extremely responsive to any questions and issues. All in all a very good experience!

Beautiful rental and amazing hosts

We chose October to stay at this beautiful rental for a couple of reasons- Black flies are usually fewer and the beaches are less crowded. The hosts are wonderful at communicating if needed, cupboards are stocked with many of the basics, all linens and towels are provided. We used the porta crib for my 9 month old grandson. The Bay behind the house is amazing, we watched the sunset from the deck and the beach and ocean is right across the street. All in all, we definitely recommend this property!!
