“We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.” - Henry David Thoreau

Spectacular View, Clean, Comfortable, and Quiet

We had a wonderful stay. Brigadoon by the Sea was clean, comfortable and quiet. Terry was a wonderful host. He even brought us a bottle of wine to celebrate our anniversary. You will love the spectacular view of the bay. The sunrises are exquisite. You will enjoy staying here.

The most wonderful stay

Admittingly, My husband and I usually enjoy a mountain and lake house over the beach however after staying in this property our minds have been changed. The beach was absolutely amazing. We immediately fell in love with the remote beauty of it. We were able to enjoy nature and soak in the quiet moments, which is what we needed. I felt the stress of everyday life melt away as soon as I stepped onto the property. Our daughter enjoyed going into the water as the waves were docile and calm and the sand was so soft. We spent hours just walking along the shore admiring the shells we found. We also loved how the home and beach were dog friendly as well. The house itself was wonderful. Remote enough to enjoy peace but close enough to drive to Rehoboth Beach in the evening when we wanted to enjoy the boardwalk and amusements there. The house was fully stocked with what we needed to ensure a great trip. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the deck overlooking the water. We loved the light and airy décor and admired the fox painting with his top hat and pipe! The warm water in the outside shower was a bonus and so lovely! The host Terry was extremely gracious even before we checked in. I could not ask for a better stay and host and we most definitely will be returning. This is such a special place and gem of an area and hope it remains this way. I am so glad we stumbled upon this property and booked our trip. Thanks for giving us a space to reconnect to nature and with our family.

Fabulous Broadkill Weekend

We had a wonderful visit to Broadkill Beach thanks to our stay in this lovely cottage. Great layout, comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, beautiful views, and friendly neighbors. We loved being able to take our dog with us and appreciated all of the thoughtful touches especially the fenced in deck. This is our second time staying in one of Terry's beach houses and we were very impressed by the quality, the ease of communication, and the cleanliness. We had a fun night eating boiled crabs and mussels at The Surfing Crab (an easy drive from Broadkill) and were very happy to be here for the seasonal opening of the Broadkill Store (didn't get up early enough for doughnuts but the breakfast sandwiches were great!). Thanks for another great trip to Broadkill Beach, Terry!

Great place on the bay

We stayed for a long weekend with our two dogs. The place is great, open layout with views to the water. Large comfortable couch and several comfy chairs. A short walk through the dunes to the beach. The kitchen could use some cookware upgrades. If you are planning much indoor cooking you might do well to bring along a few large pans. We didn't use the outside grill, but it looked fine. The description did not state that sheets and towels are not included, so be advised. This was stated in the pre-trip email, but it would have been good to know sooner. The bed was super comfortable! There is a gate on the deck that keeps the kids or dogs away from the stairs, which was a great convenience. Overall the place is really nice,comfortable and perfectly situated on the beach!

Yes! You should stay here.

Location location location. The house echoed exactly as it was presented on VRBO. Just the right size and steps to the beach! The open concept was amazing so we could cook, play games and relax all in the same room and still be able to hang out and talk to each other. Sidenote, all of the seating options was fantastic, ample chairs, and a giant comfortable couch! Aside from the waves I could’ve heard a pin drop. The location was perfect. The weather was perfect. The house was perfect. Thank you so much Terry for sharing The Brigadoon!!! We will be back :)

Great House, View and Location

We enjoyed our stay. House has a very nice layout - big great room with comfortable sofa, chairs and two dining tables - we used one for jigsaw puzzles. Great view of the bay from the deck and inside the house. Terry is an excellent host who quickly responded to the few questions we had.

Amazing stay! (again)

We've stayed here twice now in 2022 and 2023. Great location. Easy, private beach access for lazy days back and forth at the beach. Bay is great for little kids. Beach quietness reminds me of the outerbanks. Plus - great host who helped us fix a minor furniture issue quickly. Highly recommend and will stay here again next year!

Excellent for Dogs and slow pace

We enjoyed our stay,host was prompt and friendly. We had our family and our dog, it was laid out well and plenty of room for all. The area was nice and everyone in the area was so nice and helpful. Rehobeth isn’t too far away if you’re looking for more to do. Otherwise great area to hang out on the beach or sit on the porch. The Broadkill store was nice they were very helpful. We talked to the neighbors who were awesome and everyone had dogs. Nice beach for the dogs to get out and off leash after 5. Mine I don’t trust so much but the other dogs seemed to enjoy the freedom. This was an enjoyable time for us even with the looming Canadian smoke and they aren’t kidding about the flys. They didn’t bother us too much but one day they were on the war path, I will say they are present all the time. All in all excellent place would definitely recommend!

Nice pet friendly vacation spot

The house was nice for our group of four adults and our dogs. Some things in the house could use updating, but we hardly noticed since much of our time was spent enjoying the view from the deck or on the beach. It was quiet and peaceful, and with Lewes and Rehoboth nearby, we were very happy with the location. Check in and out were easy and Terry was super quick to respond when we needed help!

Quiet solace in late October

Comfortable home adjacent to the nature preserve and Delaware Bay with a small dune buffer filled with wildlife was just what our senses needed. Twenty minutes to most amenities otherwise - it’s quiet and beautiful.

Super relaxing autumn weekend

We had a lovely stay at Broadkill Beach. We didn’t see any other people on the beach but there were a bunch of horseshoe crabs and whelk egg casinos to see. Our dog had a lovely time walking on the beach and sniffing everything. It is a gorgeous view from the porch. The beds were super comfy and the house had everything we needed. I didn’t realize the Broadkill store closes in September to we had to drive to get food and supplies but that was fine. We drove into Lewes and Rehoboth to explore as well. Overall an excellent and relaxing weekend.

A perfect vacation

What a lovely beach house. I would suggest the owner add some more coffee cups, dessert plates, caulender, and chopping knifes. All in all though, my husband, friends, and dog were very pleased. The location was perfect. The short walk to the sand was terrific! We really enjoyed the privacy of the property and the sparsely populated beach. That was likely due to the time of year; post Labor Day week. I was nervous about the biting flies I'd heard so much about, but that was all for nothing. Even having a few off/on rain days lent themselves to serious outlet shopping nearby, boardwalk strolls in Rehobeth and restaurant roulette. A perfect vacation! Thank you for letting us use your home. We will be back!!
