"What a tremendous destiny for our family summer vacation! The spacious living/bedroom quarters, the well-stocked kitchen, the amazing basement game room and the welcoming pool all provided for a comfortable and enjoyable week for our family.We also visited 2 fun beaches which were short drives from the house. And although there are plenty of activities for entertainment nearby, the highlight of our trip was definitely the beautiful home that we returned to afterwards. We will plan to return!"

10/10 Excellent
"From the moment we stepped into Footbridge Hideaway we knew our family found the perfect place to spend our 2 week vacation in Lewes. It is comfortable and inviting. We started every day with coffee on the screened porch listening to the frogs and birds on the pond. The area is convenient to everything we love about the Delaware beaches... Cape Henlopen State Park, Downtown Lewes and Rehobeth. Our Grandchildren enjoyed fishing at the pond, watching a family of ducks come through each day and exploring the nature of the community. Comming back to this home each day after an adventure was a pure joy. Cocktails on the porch and dancing to vinyl records is something we will all remember. Very comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchen, Our Host was wonderful.. much love went into their home"

When is the best time to go to Lewes?
The best time to go to Lewes is during the shoulder seasons of spring (late April to early June) and autumn (September to October) for pleasant weather and fewer crowds.During these months, the weather is generally mild and comfortable, ideal for exploring the town's historic sites, cycling the scenic trails, or enjoying the beaches without the peak summer heat and crowds. You'll find most shops and restaurants open, but with a more relaxed pace.For those looking to experience the full beach holiday atmosphere, July and August offer the warmest weather for swimming and sunbathing. However, these are also the busiest months, with higher prices and larger crowds at popular spots like Lewes Beach and Cape Henlopen State Park. Bookings for accommodation and popular restaurants are essential well in advance if you plan to visit during this period.If you're interested in quieter visits focused on nature and birdwatching, the winter months (November to March) can be appealing, particularly for exploring Cape Henlopen State Park.
