What a gem! This cottage is just beautiful, beautiful setting, just watching the water from the porch. And just after a casual mention that it was our 40th anniversary, we entered the cottage to a card/gift and bottle of wine-made me tear up- what an incredibly thoughtful gesture!We just loved it and we will be back!

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!

Traffic noise

It is a very cute little place and very nice for two. The only bad thing is the traffic getting out of the road or even returning. Heading out you have to go right and returning you need to go past and make a u turn and slide over one lane to make the turn to the road. I was honked at many times for doing this. As well the home is very close to the road RT 1 and the traffic noise is unreal. I'm an outdoor type person and love sitting on a porch, but did only twice in the time we were there. Wanted to use the fire pit but noise was to much. Also no more cable there, but owner did keep it there till we left, but tried to log into it since we have cable, but would not work. Tried to get a news channel MSNBC on her new site and it would not at all show up. So again it's a very nice place and we did enjoy the time inside the home, but we live in the country and on a dirt road, so the noise was the biggest issue. But if your a city folks or from an area with lots of traffic and noise from it, I'm sure you will love it.

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.

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.

Disappointing

No towels, no dishwasher, no washer/dryer, no privacy. The highway sound from route 1 is constant. Very difficult to get in and out due to poor visibility and no turning lane. 1 friend visited, stayed 1 night and we had to move her car so i I could drive. I was emailed by the owner to get back to her ASAP as the people monitoring the house found there was too much coming and going, suspicious for too many people staying in the home. It was me, one friend who stayed one night. Completely creepy and inaccurate. Choose another place.

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.

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.
