About this property

beachfront on the Delaware Bay- beautiful Prime Hook Beach

  • We are located beachfront on the Delaware Bay in amazing Prime Hook Beach. We are a little north of Lewes and Rehoboth. The cottage is a comfortably furnished, relaxing, 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home that sleeps 8 people. The home has amazing water views from almost every room. Two bedrooms have a queen sized bed, dresser and closet. The third bedroom is a much larger family sleeping room with a queen bed, 2 twin beds and a very comfortable couch that converts into a queen sized bed. There is a pac-n-play available. The area is perfect for nature enthusiasts with so much nature all around. This is the perfect place to hike, bike, fish, kayak or just enjoy the very quiet, mostly private beach right out your back door. (There are two kayaks at the house - a single and a double as well as two stand up paddleboards). The beach on the Delaware Bay is generally much calmer than the ocean beaches a little south. If you are looking for more intense waves the beaches of Cape Henlopen and Rehoboth are about a 25-30 minute drive. The restaurants/bars of Rehoboth, Lewes, Milton and Milford are close by as are the Rehoboth boardwalk and outlet shops. Golf, charter fishing and water sports available in several close locations. Several restaurants, a library, a theater, grocery store, liquor store and some other closer shops are available in the nearby town of Milton- approximately 8 miles away. Please feel free to contact us with any questions. We love the area and hope you will too.

    This home has been a very popular rental with excellent reviews (The Yellow Cottage) and is now under new ownership. *We did add an outdoor flood light/security camera at the front of the house which covers the parking area to the street. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Just what we needed

We were looking for a quiet beach getaway and found this gem. Lots of activities in the house and outside exploring opportunities for our family. The kids loved being steps away from the beach. Can’t wait to stay again.

The stay was absolutely perfect. The second we walked in and saw the view of the water from the porch and house windows we booked our next family trip. There is tons of stuff to occupy your time without having to bring it with you. The private beach was perfect and the hummingbirds and crabs were fun to watch! The hosts even thought of my son and left a small gift for his first birthday!

This was a great place for a quiet weekend getaway. We are lifelong friends and just wanted to be able to catch up and visit. Just far enough away from commercial tourist stuff but close enough to participate if we wanted to.

A great, clean cottage nestled in the Prime Hook Refuge right on the beach. We loved driving Prime Hook beach road enjoying the scenery and birds. Beautiful views from the living room and large deck! Easy access to local attractions. We can’t wait to come back!

Million dollar view

The property has some quirks and could use some updating. Ultimately it served are needs and there were all sorts of great things on site like kayaks. The view is what makes the property. There is nothing like watching the sun rise over the beach with your coffee. We had a great time and would recommend this place for a getaway.

Wonderful stay

This was our 3rd time at Prime Hook and this location was by far the best in all aspects...number one being the view from the deck. Was surprised at the amenities we found at the house. Could really just take your clothing, drinks and food and almost everything else was surprisingly there! Would highly recommend Anne & Jim and their wonderful home!

Family Bliss

Prime Hook bay front so beautiful and property has many great beach amenities. Plenty of room for 6 adults and 2 children. Close to Rehoboth, Cape Henlopin and Lewis but great to return to Prime Hook and relax on quiet beach. Deer swimming in bay, a rainbow and rocket launch viewed at night. What more could you ask for

Cottage by the sea

This place was perfect for our family of 4. Our 8 and 10 year olds had a great time on the beach and parents could sit on the deck and supervise. The house is fully stocked with all you need, not a single expired condiment! The view is unbeatable, check in and out was super easy, and close enough to the boardwalk to go, but far enough away that you dont have the crowds. It was clean and well maintained.

Fabulous views!

Another perfectly relaxing trip- third year in a row for our family! You can’t beat the views. Plenty of space to relax, work on puzzles, and eat and a well stocked kitchen. Our kids love “their” room which has plenty of toys, books, and dvds to keep them occupied. We took lots of walks along the water and relaxed on the deck. Highly recommend, and we will be back!

Very enjoyable vacation lication.

The location and view are amazing. We had a lot of wind while we were their, but still had a very nice stay. The house was cleen and very well accommodating. The open space of the house while still having separate spaces was very nice. All the extras were very nice also. My family enjoyed a nice bike ride around to see Prime Hook. The beach access is also very convenient. Comunication with property manager was quick and easy. We will definitely be back.

3rd Year Straight, Always Satisfied!!

Just the overall perfect cozy cottage to stay in to get away from it all, while enjoying the right on the never crowded beach with up close views of the bay!! It was exceptionally refreshing to walk in and smell the cleanliness of the cottage so A+++ to the cleaners!! We got to enjoy the breath taking sunrises over the bay, watch the dolphins swim by and even spotted a fox on the beach right in front of the cottage.Kayaks provided to take a ride on the bay makes for an even more exceptional experience!! All I can advise is to Book this place as often and for as long as you can as the time fly's by ever so quickly during your stay!!

Beachfront perks at a fair price

My family and I had an amazing stay at the Yellow Cottage. The house isn’t packed with the most modern design but my family actually preferred the look and layout to other places. The view is incredible from almost the entire house, including the inside and the great new deck. But the greatest perk was the ability to walk right out on to what almost felt like a private beach. The water was great to swim in, especially with younger kids. And it wasn’t too far to get to some of the local attractions. You just need to traverse a beautiful wildlife refuge to get to the main road! We rarely book the same place twice, but this might make that list soon!
