Serene beach cottage a short walk from beautiful Broadkill Beach. Pet friendly!

Welcome to The Retreat! An adorable and comfortable cottage just steps from the beach. This two bed + loft, two full bath, free standing home is in a private setting on a culda sac street. It sleeps 8 and is your perfect getaway for peace and relaxation.

The Retreat is located on popular Broadkill Beach - a charming place to relax, unwind, and renew. The space is simple and serene, yet has everything one needs.

Steps to the beach with a large deck, outdoor shower, and fenced backyard, this house welcomes pets! Main Floor living with a bright open floor plan with skylights and hardwood floors makes getting around easy. The main bedroom has a private bath with a beautiful large walk in shower.

Broadkill beach is away from the hustle and bustle of Rehoboth and Lewes Beach. Play board games on the all seasons screened in front porch, or grill out on the spacious front deck. Walk down to the Broadkill beach country store for some ice cream or legendary cheese steaks.

The Retreat is just 20 minutes from the charming and historic town of Lewes and Lewes Beach. Cape Henlopen State Park in Lewes is stunning-make sure you check out the historic Army Base and Fort Miles. Also within short driving distance is Delaware Turf Sports Complex.

Property was a convenient location and very well-kept. Had a nice warm shower and a very comfortable sleep and stay. Short walk to the beach, which made for a nice morning walk. Full kitchen available for use. Experienced a glitch with the keypad code at check-in but host was very responsive to our reaching out for help, and they were able to remotely reset the keypad to help us gain entry to the property. Would stay there again if in the area in the future.

Two families staying together for father's day weekend and we had a really lovely time. The house was great with a surprisingly well-equipped kitchen and the host was super helpful and the instructions were all clear. Beach was a short walk away and the neighborhood is nice as could be. Thumbs up, do recommend.

Communication was excellent. We spent two nights visiting family on our way to Florida. The accommodations were outstanding. The block and a half to walk to the beach was fabulous. As we were visiting in late November we had the beach all to ourselves. We will definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay at Broadkill Beach. The house was great. Just as described on the listing. The master shower is huge and it's very welcome after a day out on the beach. Only 20 minutes from DE Turf fields, which is the reason we were in DE. Would definitely stay here again!

Enjoyed this house, very comfortable for four of us and a dog. Appliances are new and worked as they should. The front living room is a great place to gather, watch tv, and play games. The area is great for walks, and the beach isn’t far. Very quiet in early June. This was our first time staying in Broadkill. We would definitely book this house again if we come back to the area.

We stayed here for four nights in the middle of the week in mid-October. Highly recommend! It was very comfortable for us. I loved being able to walk to the beach, but then also being among the trees when sitting on the porch. We cooked all of our meals at the cottage, enjoyed sitting in the sunroom, and slept well in the comfortable bed. It is not too far of a drive to the grocery store in Milton, and also not far to drive to Lewes and Rehoboth for a day trip. We would definitely stay again!

Spring beach vacation

Property was comfortable and clean. Well furnished with small appliances, linens. Lighting was good. Perfect for two couples to enjoy reading and conversation. Neighborhood is very quiet.Kitchen cookware, prep dishes and utensils could stand to be replaced. Some minor repairs needed. BBQ needs to be cleaned. Seem to need an account to watch most TV programs.

easy walk to the beach - no bugs - nice relaxing

The house was very comfortable - well equipped kitchen was appreciated - easy walk to the beach - no bugs - nice relaxing weekend. we appreciated that it was pet friendly and not a dump - nice house - one suggestion for improving would be to add or move a gate to the front steps of the porch so that pets could be let out into the back yard more easily and they could hang out on the porch with their people. Thanks for sharing your house and beach with us.

Lovely stay at the beach!

We had a great time staying in this house on Broadkill Beach. The house was nicely located a block from the beach, had a great kitchen, comfortable beds, a large assortment of games (which my kids loved), and really everything you could need! The host was very responsive when there was an issue with the water (not their fault! A work crew had shut off water to the area) even calling the utility company to follow up on when the water would be turned on. We really enjoyed Broadkill Beach area -- nice a quiet and a lovely getaway!

Great beach retreat

Great location just a short walk to the beach. The house had lots of fun games, cards, books, kitchen items, and a very peaceful vibe. Perfect for our group of 6. Sheets, towels, and beach chairs made it very convenient. The owner responded quickly to questions and was very helpful. Look for dolphins on the beach and a grey fox in the neighborhood. We had not been to Broadkill Beach before and really enjoyed the natural, laid back atmosphere. We did not want to leave.
