We had a wonderful weekend, walking the beach, listening to the waves lap the shore, and watching the birds and porpoises play in the water. The house was very clean and well-stocked. The beds and furniture were comfortable. And the view was amazing!

Friends Reunion
The house was perfect for us. Two old men getting together to reminisce. The room facing the ocean was perfect for sitting and enjoying the views while telling stories. Everything we needed in the kitchen was available and having everything on one floor was great. We are already talking about a return visit next Spring.

Spectacular Views!
The views here are just amazing. The beach is quiet and almost all to ourselves. This is a wildlife sanctuary and the beach clearly belongs to the horseshoe crabs - not people. The house was immaculate, the kitchen well provisioned, and the basement stocked with beachy stuff (chairs, games, etc).

What a view!
The sunroom is just perfect - loved the trolley seat for eating and enjoyed our morning coffee on the couch watching the sunrise over the water. The kitchen had everything we needed for basic meals and loved that you could still see the water from there. The main floor bathroom was a bit small and challenging for managing a toddler so we ended up using the basement to shower. Would come again!

third year here
My family and I and the dogs have stayed here for 3 years now. It's still a lovely home, with some nice upgrades, and it is very easy to contact the landlord. However, the prices keep going up, the ceiling leaks when there is a bad rain, and the house wasn't as immaculate as in years past.

Bay front house
Property is precisely as advertised. It was very clean and the host gets extra kudos for thinking of literally everything to include with the house including sheets, towels, some toiletries, Saran, aluminum foil, spices, books, games. The front room overlooking the dune is quiet and serene. The rake for the beach seaweed (a lot) was most welcome and we used it each day. We very much appreciate the grill!

Perfect beach house
The view from the house is simply perfect. Coffee and sunrises every morning, and the dolphins gave us a show on our last morning!! The downstairs bathroom is super convenient from the beach especially with children, and the shower down there made coming in extra easy as well. House was very well equipped for cooking for the family and the was a full spread of plastic plates, bowls, and cups for the kiddos. Highly recommended!! We already booked a repeat visit!!

Fantastic Vacation
We had an amazing week at Prime Hook. The wall of windows in this home gives an clear view of the water from every spot in the house. It was very relaxing and restorative. The beach is private. Lots of wildlife. We had so much fun here! Cooked fabulous meals - the kitchen is well stocked. The home was very clean. Mike and Laura were very responsive and accommodating. We hope to return someday soon!!

Great stay at a great location that is right on the beach and not too far from Lewes. Clean and spacious hose for the square feet. Easy communication with the owner. You will see other comments that might give a con of the flies on the beach but us knowing the area we came prepared with bug spray. Don’t let these comment make you miss out on this gem.

This was a great property! Just a few steps to the beach, which was very private and quiet. Kids spent many hours playing in the sand and the waves! Hosts were extremely responsive and answered all questions in a timely manner. House was clean and well stocked. Highlight of our trip was multiple dolphin sightings from the house!

New memories ♥️
We all had a wonderful time. I grew up vacationing in this area and it holds so many memories for me growing up with my friends. Many new memories are now being made with my children and grandchildren. This beach house was perfect. It had a wonderful view & was clean and comfortable. It had everything we could ever need. I loved sitting and having coffee in the morning while watching the sunrise over the bay. we had fun picking crabs at the table while enjoying the view. A short 15 to 20 minute drive takes you to restaurants shopping and a boardwalk. We loved it, and will want to come back again. Also being able to bring our dogs was wonderful!
