PRIVATE BEACH ACCESS! CEMENT BOAT RAMP & LARGEST DOCK AT BROADKILL BEACH!

DOUBLE WATER ACCESS! A PRIVATE BEACH PATH & BEACH GEAR CORRAL IN FRONT TO THE SANDY BEACH; & PRIVATE CEMENT BOAT RAMP & LARGEST DOCK AT BROADKILL BEACH IN THE BACK YARD. PRIVATE PATHWAY TO BEACH WITH A BEACH GEAR CORRAL! The property across the street was purchased & is maintained by the homeowner who also provides you with an exclusive private pathway as part of your rental agreement. It does not get any better than this!

Located on the south end of Broadkill Beach, in Sussex County, DE, this spacious four-bedroom property faces the sandy beach at the mouth of the Delaware Bay, just a few steps from your front door & your private pathway to the beach. In the rear of the property is your own private dock & boat ramp giving you access to the Broadkill River, Delaware Bay & the Atlantic Ocean.

NEAR LEWES & HENLOPEN!
NEAR FREDERICA & BETHANY! (No sports teams please)

Instead of parking problems, heavy traffic & crowded beaches, a typical day could look something like this:
In the early morning, from your master bedroom’s private sundeck; view the eastern sky & large ships that appear small, moving effortlessly through a vast body of water while you are enjoying your first cup of coffee. Walk over your small dune that reveals the shoreline of the Delaware Bay; soothe your soul by feeling the calmness of a new day.
As you watch the pink, orange, & gold sunrise over the water, the calm changes, you feel a breeze coming from the salty sea, you see & hear the waves begin to lap onto the beach, birds appear, start chirping, & move toward the one-foot surf; you now know why Broadkill Beach is the best-kept secret in all of Delaware.

Linger & watch the Cape May/Lewes Ferry travel across the mouth of the Delaware Bay to its destination. Watch dolphins playing, splashing & catching fish just in front of you. Walk north toward the Broadkill Store, turn over stranded horseshoe crabs & stop to investigate the life on & around the rock jetty.

At low tide look for hermit crabs, starfish, conchs & other sea life in the shallow water around these rocks. Read, relax, swim & take a nap at the water’s edge & refresh yourself with lunch in the cool air conditioning of your retreat just behind the small dune you crossed over earlier in the day.

Walk south from your private beach path toward Beach Plum Island State Park & ask the fishermen if they are catching anything. Look south & identify the Roosevelt Inlet, historic Lewes, Henlopen Point & the breakwater lighthouse.

Return to your resting place, take an outdoor shower & plan your evening by making sure you are back home to sit on the bench seats of your private observation deck to watch a spectacular sunset over a Federal Wildlife Refuge & waterway adjoining your own backyard.

This open-concept home, built in the perfect location, was designed for comfort, convenience, & enjoyment to be shared with family, friends, & now with you. It consists of two living areas that are included in the weekly rental fee; a three-bedroom house & a one-room efficiency that sleeps 3. The two areas are connected by an enclosed staircase & access to an outdoor shower, changing area, & privacy space.

Imagine the convenience of bringing your own boat to launch & dock in back, giving you access to limitless activities & adventures that few people are fortunate enough to discover or experience. Spend the day fishing & crabbing from the dock, exploring winding tributaries in the backwaters, drifting on the Broadkill River, charging through the Roosevelt Inlet into the open expanse of the Delaware Bay & Atlantic Ocean waiting for you to experience all it has to offer.

BRING YOUR TOYS, IF YOU DON'T, YOU'LL WISH YOU HAD!
Launch your boat, jet skis, canoes, kayaks & other flotation vessels into the backwaters. Navigate south on the Broadkill River to Lewes for a cocktail & meal at the waterside restaurants. Go out the Roosevelt Inlet for bay fishing or jet skiing. Come around on the bay to your home at Broadkill & take the family for a ride on the jet skis, go tubing & wakeboarding, or load everyone up on the pontoon boat for a day trip & picnic lunch.
Head back in the Inlet & get a gasoline fill-up on the water in Lewes. Your dock is long enough to hold a 24-foot pontoon boat in the water for the week & still have plenty of room to crab, fish, catch minnows, sunbathe, put up a baby pool, fill with water, sit, & relax.

Replenish your mind & soul with the serenity of the environment, meditate, read, & experience the sunset from the dock of your private oasis.

Perfect Family Vacation Home
Wendy provides you with the most perfect home for a stay in Broadkill. The house is just steps away from the beach and the private beach path is a wonderful touch! The house had everything we needed for the week including a wide variety of kitchen appliances to use while cooking meals. We traveled with a 1 year old and there were even things in the house that benefitted him like a seated wagon and multiple pack n plays! Our family enjoyed having the options of being on the beach or fishing out back on the dock. Wendy also provides you with some outdoor games as well such as cornhole and frisbee. The house was very clean on arrival and Wendy even assisted with providing some tools we needed to go crabbing. We would definitely book with Wendy again for a relaxing stay in Broadkill beach.

We could have stayed all summer!
I have nothing but great things to say about this place. The owners were easy to communicate with and quick to respond to all the questions I had before booking and before we arrived. Check-in was a snap, and the house was spotless when we arrived. Best of all, there were no surprises; the house and amenities were exactly as advertised. Every night we enjoyed an absolutely gorgeous sunset from the dock, and every morning we were on the beach, via the private path, watching the sunrise. We also had a great view of both the sunrise and sunset from the balconies off the master bedroom; one on either side of the house. You really couldn't ask for a better view. If you have a large family that wants to hit the beach often and you're looking for a nice, quiet, neighborhood, you really can't beat this home. We had seven people in the house, and we fit very comfortably. We never once felt as if we were tripping over each other or were in each other's way. My kids are already asking if we're going back to the same house next summer!

Very Nice Property in Gorgeous, Quiet Beach Location
The house is in good shape with plenty of room for a full family. The beach across the street is beautiful, as is the river in the backyard. The owners are lovely, friendly and helpful; the house means a lot to them and it shows. Plenty of amenities. Quite a few stairs, which is endemic to the area which can be subject to rare hurricane water damage. Overall a terrific experience, unique for its conveniences combined with quiet, off-the-path location.

Abundant entertainment, hospitality, and crabs
We had a 10/10 vacation. The dock was a huge hit with our group. Crabbing was fun. The beach trail & private access was nice. The Bay waters are usually very calm & low tide is about 3ft deep for 100 yards so basically a huge baby pool. Plan around tides; go after high tide or get washed out. We liked the multiple entry points with double doors & screens for keeping bugs out. The trundles in every room were helpful as older children sorted out sleeping configurations. The sunken living room was helpful for containing our toddlers. I actually forgot a pack and play and they had 2 upstairs so that was very helpful! We enjoyed the outdoor shower, grill, efficiency room, the fish cutting table, the hose locations. Overall, many good memories were made. tips: Bullfrog sunscreen is also bug repellent- get a good deal of it for your group as well as regular 40% deet bug spray (mosquitoes and greenheads from the marsh mean always wear some repellent; you won’t always need sunscreen though), they have 2 pack and plays upstairs, check the efficiency room kitchenette cabinets for plates/bowls/cups for the kids. Had a great time! Thanks Wendy and Brandon!

Perfect Beach! Great House!
We had 6 adults and 7 children between 3 and 12. The kids LOVED the house and the beach. We loved that it was not a prodution to go to the beach. No packing up and hauling your life for an afternoon.No torture finding parking. The older kids enjoyed the bike cruisers. The outdoor shower is perfect. Everyone wanted to stay longer. Overall a great week and a beautiful location.

Just got back from our mini vacation on Broadkill Beach. The access to both the beach in front and the dock and wetlands in back was the main draw for us. The kids (and even the teens!!) had fun crabbing off the dock and kayaking through the canals. Two thumbs up!

Broadkill Beach Getaway
For those who seek wonderful salt marsh views and sunsets; fishing, crabbing, and boating at the back door, and easy access to beaches with calm surf and few people - this home offers all. Located near end of lane on spit dividing Broadkill beach and a branch of Old Mill Creek, the location is relatively secluded, with little road traffic. Milton is about 15 minutes' drive, has large grocery store and pharmacy, and a good bakery/casual restaurant (The Backyard). It takes 30 or so minutes to drive to Lewes and Cape Henlopen State Park. It was August, and depending on wind direction and strength, the beach was sometimes buggy. House was well-equipped, and we especially welcomed the two kayaks and excellent creek-side dock. Wendy and her family were super friendly and responsive to the few questions we had during our stay.

Family Vacation
My family (adult children and my grandchildren) are making the beach our annual vacation. This year was extra special as my oldest son is deploying overseas next week :( We had a total of 13 people; 6 of them being children aged 9 and under. There was never a dull moment from crabbing to swimming to heading to Rehobeth for a boardwalk day. The beach and wildlife are nothing we had ever experienced before, as we typically are at a more resort type beach, The campfire in the evenings, the AMAZING sunsets and swimming in the bay with the children is the BEST. There is not one bad thing to say about our entire stay, We enjoyed every second and the only negative was the fact that we had to leave. We would rate more stars if we could! Forever thankful......The Carrollls...

Celebrating 40 years
The house was exactly what we were looking for to celebrate together with our kids and grandkids. There was never a moment of boredom. We fished, went crabbing, played on the beach, cooked and ate delicious meals together. Our regrets were not having time to bike and kayak, not forcing our kids to quit their jobs so we could stay longer and watching our 7-year old grandson cry when we made him turn his “pet” crab loose,

Best Private beach! Beautiful property!
I had a surprise bday party for my mother on the beach. Me, my wife and son all stayed for a few days and had the party that Saturday. A couple people stayed that night before they went home. There is more than enough space and amenities to satisfy all needs. There are plenty of fans along with central air to keep cool. We even used the grill on site. The views are amazing. Perfect for family photos. If I could give 6 starts I would!!

One of the cleanest places I've stayed at from this site. Private dock and beach access were really nice. Beach was clean and not crowded at all. Kayaks and bikes were also a plus! Perfect place for a quiet family vacation. I would reccomend bringing a few baby gates if you have infants/toddlers though as there is a lot of steps in the house.
