3 Bedrooms + Loft, 2.5 Baths, Sleeps 9

''We couldn't stop taking pictures of the view...''

''...the many ocean views and sensation of really being at the beach every moment of our stay - that was what made it extraordinary...''

''No one wanted to leave your amazing home. I can't tell you how much we loved staying there...''

-- From our guest reviewers on Homeaway & VRBO.

If you vacation at the shore to enjoy the beach, then you've just found the perfect spot in a private, timeless beach home that's been a favorite getaway since the summer of '68....

LOCATION - This northernmost oceanfront home in Bethany Beach literally sits on the sand with the beach at your door and 2800 preserved acres of oceanfront and dunes to the north. Tucked away on one of the most tranquil and scenic spots along the mid-Atlantic with a wide sandy beach and natural, preserved setting, this beach home offers the opportunity to truly relax and immerse yourself in the beach experience 24/7 while on vacation.

FIVE PORCHES/DECKS & ENDLESS VIEWS - Beach views, ocean views, Delaware State Seashore views... Watch your family play on the beach just outside, have dinner oceanfront on the screened porch or take in a sunrise over the Atlantic and see what the fishermen at the State Seashore reel in as the day begins - all without leaving your house!

DIRECT OCEANFRONT - Step off your deck DIRECTLY onto a private beach! No dragging chairs, coolers or kids for blocks or even over a dune crossing and no worries about finding a bathroom, packing up for lunch, or what to do with bored kids who want to go back to the house.

IDEAL LAYOUT INCLUDING TWO OCEANFRONT BEDROOMS EACH WITH THEIR OWN PRIVATE DECK - A spiral staircase leads to two oceanfront bedrooms letting you enjoy unobstructed ocean views and the sounds of surf crashing just outside your door. A great layout for families or two couples since each enjoys their own oceanfront room with beachfront deck or porch and separate bathrooms. The third bedroom is ideal for adults or kids with two additional double beds and the third floor loft offers extra living or sleeping space with a twin daybed plus a pull-out twin trundle. A queen sleep sofa on the first floor provides additional sleeping options.

ACTIVITIES - Beach and Delaware State Seashore just outside your door offering swimming, fishing, jogging and biking, kayaking and surfing plus beach volleyball at our oceanfront community court, private tennis courts, large playground and a private pavilion. Fantastic seafood restaurant right in the community with a great happy hour and even a walk up window for those nights when you don't feel like cooking! And don't forget to grab a snowcone as the Jeep rolls down Ocean Road in the late afternoon...

OR JUST RELAX - Life truly is a little slower here. If crowds, beach contests and loud parties are your thing, you'll likely find better choices. If you want to slow down a little, relax and make some great memories, you're in the right place and we look forward to hearing from you.

Beds: 1 Queen, 2 doubles, 4 twins (including twin (xlong) daybed & twin trundle), 1 Queen Sleep Sofa.

Ordinarily, we try to keep the rental periods beginning and ending on Sundays, but exceptions are possible, depending on rental demand.

About Tim

A family owned property purchased by three siblings and their spouses whose families have been vacationing at Atlantic Watergate properties for many years, often for the same week renting multiple houses in the complex.

We feel fortunate to be the stewards of this unique and special beach home and to be able to share it with others.

Tim purchased this townhome in 2011
Why Tim chose Bethany Beach

In the summer of 2010 our family rented this house for a week. We have rented many beach houses over many summers, but for the entire week we were here I said to my wife, 'If we ever were to buy a vacation house, this would be the perfect place.' Amazingly it came on the market in the winter of 2011, and here we are.....

Although all of the Atlantic Watergate properties are terrific, this is a one of a kind end unit that not only sits directly on the beach but has the added benefit and views of the dunes of the Delaware State Seashore directly north. In our opinion this is an unbeatable location with some of the best views along the Atlantic.

Car: recommended

Our property directly borders the unspoiled Delaware Seashore State Park, with preserved oceanfront and dunes stretching from our house northward for 6 miles all the way to Dewey Beach. The dunes have their own unique ecosystem of interesting plants, birds and other wildlife on constant view. Additionally the oceanfront park offers fishing, surfing, hiking, and all the activities a state park has to offer - see the link below. Beach volleyball, playground, tennis courts, pavilion and regular visits from the snow cone truck!

This is the place that you want to rent, if you want the perfect vacation! We would definitely go again. The location cannot be beat. We drove up to Rehoboth and down to Ocean City. The boardwalk at Bethany Beach is really nice too, but watch out for parking tickets:) The house has everything you will need and it is clean. The views can't be beat and the sand is beautiful. Of course, we had not a cloud in our sky and didn't run the A/C all week! We had plenty of room for nine people. The spiral stairs to the top floor were a challenge at first. You must be able to do serious stair climbing to get in. WOW, we had more than enough stuff to use on the beach, chairs and umbrellas. The whole place is really nice. It's homey and decorated like a beach house. The kitchen is very well equipped. It even had the cheese grater that we needed. We cooked in each day and every other night. The grocery stores are hard to find. They are in Rehoboth with four on the same block. We found unique eggs on the beach (gave them to the park ranger) and watched fishermen catch skate (it's a fish). Two of us were actually up at dawn on the right day and watched the dolphins swim by from OUR PORCH. It was fun that our neighbors were from the same state as us. It was worth the 10 hour drive. We felt very special to have the end unit on the building. We couldn't stop taking pictures of the view. This was a treat for our group...we blew our gs cookie money on a whopper final trip together. We talked of bringing our husbands next time, maybe?! ;)
You won't be disappointed. Just do it!
Owner's Response: Thank you for the kind review. Just for clarification and future reference, please note that there is a brand new Harris Teeter supermarket less than 3 miles from the house on Fred Hudson Rd plus two other Hocker's Markets that are much closer than Rehoboth!

Perfect location

The proximity and easy access of the beautiful beach made this a perfect choice for our family. The interior accommodations were basic and just met our needs, but the many ocean views and sensation of really being at the beach every moment of our stay - that was what made it extraordinary. I will comment that the narrow winding stairs may not be the best for very young children, elderly, or anyone with physical limitations. Lugging our suitcases up and down those was no easy task, but otherwise they were no problem and actually sort of a fun element connecting the 3 stories. Our 6 and 8 year olds handled them fine. Thank you for letting us share your home, we will remember it fondly.

Great home, great great location. Couldn't get any better. This is an end unit so extra privacy and perfect views! Views from 3 balconies are awesome. Direct oceanfront, doesn't get any better. Very quiet, peaceful area of Bethany. Planning on staying many more times if they'll let us! Even has a new restaurant on the street where you turn into the complex, short short walking distance from home that has great food to boot! There were 4 adults in our stay and a 2 1/2 year old child. There would've been plenty of room for more guests and my son had a blast as well. Great family memories. We had a fabulous stay and you would too!

As soon as you walk in you will be amazed at the view of the ocean! The charm of this house makes you feel like you are truly living at the beach. We never ate inside and with the beach literally steps away you don't have to pack ANYTHING except a chair and sunscreen to enjoy a full day on the sand! The set up of the house is perfect for a bunch of friends or a large (even extended) family - just make sure you grab the top floor for yourself- its amazing to fall asleep with the moon over the ocean and wake to a sunrise - all without even lifting your head off your pillow! We hope to spend many more summer vacations in this house.
