Dear Rose,
We couldn't wait to rent your condo again this summer! The kids grew so excited when they realized that we were staying at the "condo with the canal and the blue heron"!
This year, we took advantage of the Rehoboth Outlets, just 20 minutes away. The bargains were great!
Another day, we took a day trip up to Cape Henlopen State Park, and enjoyed a wonderful tour of the WWII watch-out tower, cannons and underground bunkers along the coast. What a fascinating piece of history!
This year, more than the first, we re-discovered McCabe's Gourmet Shop right around the block from your condo. Just the thought of their fresh pastries, baguettes, coffee and fresh mozarella was enough to get us all out of bed in the mornings!
In all, thank you for offering your condo to all of us out there in need of peace, body and soul. We sure get is here!
We will return again!

Great Vacation Home
Submitted: July 30, 2012
Stayed: June 2012
This cottage is delightful! The backyard is fenced in for our dog, Max and there is a dock where you can sit and relax overlooking the canal. We enjoyed feeding the ducks by hand as well. We have rented the Townhouse by the Sea in 2009 and our experience in this cottage was just as enjoyable. We were glad to meet Rose during this trip. She is a wonderful person to get to know. We hope to return next year. Thanks, Rose for a great time in this delightful cottage!

Quaint/Comfy Cottage

Thank you so much for making the Cottage By the Sea so pet friendly. Our dachshund “Doodle” was so happy to be here with us. The highlight of our trip was watching him see the ocean and run on the beach for the first time! We just LOVE this location....so close to the beach but away from the bustle of town. Cottage Cafe was also a highlight. We've had a wonderful vacation! We really are sad to leave. The large crape myrtles in the back yard made it a cool spot on the hot days - they will be lovely when they bloom! Wish we could be here to see them. We had a beautiful lightning/rain storm on our last night..... God’s ”grand finale fireworks” for our farewell to the beach. Rose was very responsive and easy to work with.

Cottage by the Sea Vacation
Submitted: June 22, 2012
Stayed: June 2012
We had a nice time at Cottage by the Sea. Our only complaint was not enough time but that is how all vacations go. It was very peaceful and layed back which was a lot different from Ocean City. The dogs really like having the yard, I liked not having to walk them and the kids did some fishing and crabbing. We will defiantly keep your place in mind for next year.

Thanksgiving at the beach
Submitted: December 16, 2011
Stayed: November 2011
My family and I had a wonderful long weekend at the beach over Thanksgiving this year. The house was very nice and we especially enjoyed having a fenced in yard for my son's dog (she loved it too!). This is definitely a house we would rent again - in our favorite beach, Bethany. Thanks so much for sharing your house with us!

Family and friends get together
Submitted: October 14, 2011
Stayed: September 2011
What a perfect location to celebrate a very special time with family and friends. The beach house was clean and welcoming. The large great room held several people without feeling crowded. Yet the house had a home feel to it no matter how many people were in it. Rose and Russ are very accommodating and really care about their renters. We were fortunate to get to meet them. There was a tuna fishing expedition planned. What a wonderful time that was – and yes we did catch fish – fresh tuna (several types), Mahi –Mahi and four 80 to 100 pound White Marlins (catch and release)!! The best part was being able to bring our dogs. Being right on the canal the dogs (Labs) were very interested in the quacking ducks that swam by. Thank goodness for the fence! We did have rain the last two days of our vacation; however, the laundry room provided the perfect place to wipe the dogs down before they went back into the house. I would recommend this vacation home to anyone, but especially to people who travel with their dogs. We will be back.

Great family gathering!

Extended famly vacation with 3 dogs. Proximity to the beach was good, loved the canal for kayaking, easy acesses to route 1 , the road marked for walking and running, bicycling was user friendly. posted 35 mph was a plus. Area was remarkably quiet all the time. Fenced in yard was not only a plus for the dogs but also for the four grandchildren. House was well maintained and clean with a full kitchen and laundry, letting us enjoy meals in when we wanted and keeping our beach towels laundered. Also with laundy we didn't have to pack as many clothes.
The central location between various beaches was nice so if you wanted a little more excitement you could head to Ocean City or up to Rehoboth.

Great, dog-friendly place
Submitted: October 31, 2010
Stayed: October 2010
This is a great place, both dog-friendly and human-friendly. It's a convenient, one-and-a-half block walk to the ocean beach without the beach-front price. Even without a boat, the canal-access makes it a bit exotic with ducks swimming by and we even saw a heron right there. The relatively small size of the house made it perfect for us with 2 humans and one canine. But the good-size living-dining area with fireplace and four bedrooms certainly would easily accommodate more humans and dogs. The fenced yard has beautiful trees, a nice picnic table, and more than adequate space for doggy-business. We also like the easy access to restaurants, boardwalks and shopping from Rehoboth to Ocean City. It's also a short drive to Assateague Island with its wild ponies. We made two trips there in the week we stayed in the Cottage by the Sea. If you're not bringing your own linens, we should tell you that we had a good experience renting them from Grand Rental Station.

Front of house picture does not accurately represent mid-August overgrown nature of plants/shrubs, which is really no big deal. Side slab walkway is quite uneven. Rear of property is as advertised, and very pleasant because trees provide lovely shade to access the dock. Kitchen was immaculate, bathrooms quite sanitary, all mats fresh and fluffy. We had a great evening at the table in the yard with a steamed crab takeout. Location is really convenient to beach and everywhere else. Peaceful, very little traffic on Brandywine. In short, the cottage is as described, and we have it on our short list to book for next year. That says it all.

2010 Family Vacation
Submitted: July 5, 2010
Stayed: June 2010
This was a perfect "Cottage by the Sea" which we inhabited with our two daughters, two grandchildren, new son-in-law and our loveable dog.
When we arrived exhusted from at 2 day trip to get here, everything was ready to go. The fenced in property made it easy to get things into the cottage without our dog running off and he enjoyed the back yard immediately, making himself at home, while we unpacked.
It didn't take long to feel right at home with everything depicted just as the site had shown. We checked out the bedrooms, deciding who was going to take what and it all worked out with the whole gang fitting into the various bedrooms, unpacking and settling in. There were many books to read, games to play and a non-coined laundry area which was really appreciated---didn't have to worry about saving up those quarters!
Everything was cozy,tastefully decorated and comfortable--just like home! The highlight of this trip was being able to bring our dog, which we usually have to put in a kennel while we are away. He did well and enjoyed watching the ducks swimming down the canal. His favorite place was on the platform where the picnic table was and right by the grill, which we used often---he knows where the food is!
Our walk to the ocean was a very short distance and if we had many things we wanted to take, we just put everything into a car and used the beach parking permit which is provided. Beside the ocean we headed to the boardwalk and several of our gang took surfing lessons a little up the road, in addition to all of us kayaking with a guided tour--fun, fun! The restaurants were plentiful and wonderful with great seafood as well as near by food markets.
This area was near some family which we haven't seen in years and it was fun to catch up in addition to our maid of honor and best man of our wedding "many years" ago, living within 20 min. It was great to see everyone!
Rose and Russ were excellent to work with and were "johnny-on-the-spot" and sooooo helpful for any of our needs and requests. They made us feel very welcome and comfortable and cared about how things were going for us.
We recommend this great very near the beach cottage to anyone thinking about it--go without hesitation!
