Beach Lodge: 3 Bedroom - Pet Friendly - Game Room - Great for Multi Families

Welcome to the Slaughter Beach Lodge. We are pet friendly, kid friendly, sanctuary away from it all. This house offers a multitude of amenities. Downstairs is the original fishing cottage that has been transformed into the game room and hangout space. You will find darts, shuffle board, foosball, poker table and air hockey as well as a chest full of board games. The downstairs kitchenette has a retro dining booth, a working sink, microwave and mini fridge. (rest assured the main kitchen upstairs has everything you need). Also downstairs just off the kitchen is 1 of the 3 bedrooms. This bedroom has a queen bed and a full bed. Just off the game room you'll find a bathroom with a shower plus a full size washer and dryer. The downstairs is the perfect drop zone for all your beach essentials as well as a perfect drop zone for the kids after a long hot day at the beach. Head upstairs by way of the winding spiral staircase or head outside and take the much wider deck stairs to the second story. Upon entering the second story you may think you've entered a different house in the beach lodge's newest addition. You will find a full kitchen, two bedrooms (1 king bed and 1 queen bed), a full bathroom, an expansive living room, and a great dining area with breakfast bar. The views upstairs range from the gorgeous marsh sunsets to glimpses of the bay so you can tell if it's high or low tide. In the living room is a large comfy couch and 2 futons that pull out to full beds. The vaulted ceilings and the endless windows truly make for a beautiful space upstairs.
The beach lodge is conveniently located just two houses down from the Beach Access road. (less than a 5 min walk to the sand)
2020 is our first season hosting our home as a rental property. We are not a large property management company, this a family working hard to bring the Slaughter Beach that we love to you(except for the weeks that we are there!)

About Slaughter Beach:
Slaughter Beach is located on the Delaware Bay. The Beach has small waves and tiny pebbles along the tide lines. The water is great for young children since the waves are small however big kids enjoy it too! Just don't forget your water shoes. We love to search for heart shaped rocks along the sand. During low tide you can walk out into the bay and see what lies beneath.
Slaughter Beach is located in a nature preserve. It is home to ospreys and eagles and many other beautiful shore birds as well as migratory birds. You can walk along the new marvel salt marsh boardwalk and use the stationary binoculars to take a look at the nest and the birds that are nesting. Slaughter beach is most famously known as a home to horseshoe crabs. Every year in spring the horseshoe crabs spawn at the shoreline. You're sure to see tons during springtime, however during the summer you will see them sparingly along the shoreline waiting for you to flip them over so they can scurry back into the water. A few miles down the road is DuPont Nature Center, kids (and adults) love this hands-on showcase of all the local wildlife. If you enjoy bicycling, just down the street across from the saltwater boardwalk you'll find a DIY bike repair station. The majority of the beach town is one single street of homes. This keeps the beach quiet with plenty of room for you spread out your towel. Slaughter Beach draws attention due to it's interesting town name. But upon arrival you are sure to find your newest favorite hidden gem.

This was a great stay for my family and I. We stayed while attending a lacrosse tournament at the Delaware Turf Complex. The atmosphere of the house and the neighborhood is very relaxing. It was a nice change from staying at a hotel. We all agreed that the vibe of the house made you feel relaxed and refreshed. The host is very responsive, kind and accessible. The game room was fun for my husband and son after a long day of lacrosse. We only had a chance to glimpse at the beach but it is just across the street and VERY close. Check in and out were easy! All boxes ticked for us! Thank you to Sarah for allowing us to use the home. Will stay again next year if it's available.

Wonderful Getaway!
The house was great! Plenty of room for us to spread out and plenty of activities to do inside and outside. Sarah was an amazing host and very accommodating. Our dogs had a blast! I would highly recommend The Slaughter Beach Lodge.

Great house for family gathering
The Beach Lodge exceeded our expectations. It was super clean and well- organized. The game room was lots of fun, not only having shuffle board and air hockey, but also lots of board games and building toys for children of all ages. The main floor was open with a large table that accommodated our group of nine. The kitchen was equipped with everything you might need to prepare a good dinner. We liked the Dupont Nature Center about 2 miles away and the sunsets over the salt marsh. The horseshoe crabs on the beach were interesting. Our three-year-old granddaughter enjoyed riding her bike on the quiet road in front of the building. A nice place for a family getaway.

Great house, great host, perfect location
Maybe Slaughter Beach doesn't sound like idyllic location however in May when the crabs spawn and the shorebirds arrive it's a great location to see one of the bird migration capitals of the world. The house is superbly presented with everything where you would expect and easy beach access along with a short drive to route 1. Sarah, the host, has made our stay so easy with nothing being too much trouble. It's by far the best house I've stayed in on Slaughter Beach.

Awesome home in Slaughter Beach
House was clean and well stocked for a relaxing stay. The bed was very comfortable and the view from the large deck was beautiful. We plan to return with friends and family to make use of the fun game room and great access to the quiet beach.

Fabulous house for spring getaway
We spent 3 nights with 2 adults and 3 teens. The setup of the house was perfect for us. Upstairs is spacious, bright and airy. View over the marsh is lovely; we saw a variety of birds. Kitchen is well-equipped. Beds are comfortable. Downstairs was a dream come true for the teens. TV, video games, air hockey, foosball, and a completely separate hangout space. We lucked out with the weather- 70s and sunny. Beach access is right across the street. The teens took the kayaks out everyday when the tide was high enough and spent time hanging on the sand. We only saw a few other people on the beach, from a distance, the entire time. I hope we’ll have the opportunity to return!

Nice property
The property was excellent for our needs. Family traveled DE for a wedding in Maryland. It was the perfect place for the women in the wedding party, with tons of space to get ready. The downtime from the wedding was spent on the beach which is just down the street. Well equipped for everyday living. Great selection of entertainment. Wonderful deck where we were entertained nightly by wildlife in the back yard. Deer, birds, and a fox! Delightfully quiet area! I will stay here again if traveling with my whole family again!
