About this property

Peaceful Setting but close to beaches!

Heaven's Gate Cabin Retreat seems so far from the hustle and bustle, but Delaware beaches (Rehoboth Boardwalk, Cape Henlopen State Park/Lewes Beach and Dewey Beach) and tax-free outlet shopping are only 25 minutes away! It is our little slice of Heaven just close enough to great restaurants, lovely beaches and all the beauty and excitement of Southern Delaware. We put a lot of care into this charming cabin. We hope you love it as much as our family does!

The cabin has central air conditioning for your comfort, and a large outdoor grill for your family barbecues.

Roast smores by the firepit - we will start you off with some logs for your enjoyment. Family barbecues in the back yard are a must at the cabin! But if the weather isn't cooperating, the kitchen is well equipped for family meals and memories.
Nearby Millsboro/Georgetown shopping is only ten minutes away. Bring your bikes and hit Cape Henlopen bike trails. There are countless restaurants and area attractions all less than a half hour away. If you are looking for a little peace and quiet near all the excitement that southern Delaware has to offer, this is the place for you. It is truly a little slice of Heaven!

Please note that there are cameras mounted on the exterior of the property. No pets are permitted on the property. Quiet hours are from 10 pm to 9 am, this is a quiet residential neighborhood.

Bravissimo

One of the cleanest, well maintained VRBO's that I've stayed at in awhile! The rooms, kitchen, and property were exactly as described and came well equipped. The cabin is located within 10-15 minutes of Dog Fish Head Brewery which was awesome to check out, and about 20-25 minutes to the beach. Would highly recommend this beach cabin for anyone looking to have an affordable, weekend getaway!

Cabin at the beach

The cabin was roomy for our family! So cozy and clean. Love the signs on the walls! The upstairs loft room was lovely. It was nice to have two tv’s to entertain the kids. It was nice to have the coffee maker, grill and washer and dryer available. The only two suggestions would be to turn down the water heater and to place shades on the windows and skylights in the bedrooms. We enjoyed our stay and played many games of UNO!

Great Cabin

Three families and kids were here for a lacrosse tournament. I have stayed at many VRBO properties and this was one of the best. The owners have thought of everything you need an more -- there were ingredients for s'mores in the kitchen for use at the fire pit, for example. Great communication -- had two questions and they were answered immediately. Will 100% stay here again when we're back for our next tournament.

Lovely cabin weekend

We had a fabulous stay. The cabin is beautifully decorated with plenty of comfy beds, well furnished outdoor spaces, and an impressively stocked kitchen. The host was wonderful, extremely responsive, and accommodating to our requests, and just overall super nice to coordinate with. Would highly recommend!

Wonderful stay.. Thank you...

Lovely, well-appointed, clean house! Our family (Parents, and three young kids) had a fantastic stay. The home is spacious and has great living spaces for dinner, hanging out, etc. The weather was cool during our stay, and we are looking forward to coming back when it is warmer to enjoy the gorgeous screen porch space and watch the kids play outside and make smores. They were the perfect hosts and gave us all kinds of wonderful memories for our stay. Highly recommend!

Great Stay

This is a great place to stay if you are in Georgetown for a tournament at Sports at the Beach. It's an easy drive to the fields (10 min).

Great Tucked Away Cabin

We loved our stay at this cabin! The appliances and fixtures are all brand new. The great room was great for eating and games and the patio was great to sit outside and talk at night. The home was very clean and had everything we needed. There was a full FiOS TV package available with fast internet as well as a selection of board games. The owners did a great job with finishing touches. While the beaches are a moderate drive away they’re easy to get to and it’s nice to stay away from all of the Beach town hustle and bustle. We loved this cabin and will definitely stay here again!

A cabin at the shore

It was a very good property it reminded you of a cabin in the mountains. We enjoyed it very much. We stay there for my grandsons baseball tournament. The fields were only 10 minutes away.

Getaway

We rented this house for 4 nights and I wish we could stay longer! The house has its special and very unique design! We enjoyed every minute of staying there. You can feel a very homey touch of the owner who thought of every little detail to make our stay as smooth as possible! Everything we could possibly need was provided by the owner. The house is very clean and absolutely spotless! Great and spacious rooms. Every room has its unique design that fits the design of the house. Great outdoor patio and backyard. Even the staff to make s’mores was provided by the owner! To get to the ocean it took us about 25 minutes each way, but it was ok since we really enjoyed the house. We had an amazing time staying at Maggie’s house! We are hoping to come back in the future! Thank you for the great stay!

Tranquil place at the beach with great amenities!

As a property manager and realtor myself, I was very impressed with this amazing home. Although it may seem like it is a distance from the beach, it really is not and is very easy to get to. This home is in a very peaceful area and has a great yard, ample parking, is very clean, well appointed, comfortable beds, great dining table, excellent wifi, oversized TV in Main area and a bonus TV in loft area. The backyard boasts a fire pit with ample adirondack chairs for gathering around to make smores (which were a special treat that greeted us upon arrival). Owners checked in with us upon arrival and made sure that we were all set with everything. We traveled with a few games, but the owners had several great games available for our use also. This is one of my favorite rentals. I highly recommend this VRBO. Cathy

About the host

Hosted by Maggie Casola

We have been involved in property management for several decades now on the East Coast, from New Hampshire down towards South Carolina. We absolutely love taking a property that has a good location and character and making it a special place that people can call home, even if only while they are in town!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property the minute we saw it! It needed some TLC - but we could see that it could be truly special. We call it Heaven's Gate because it feels so far away from it all, it is perfectly peaceful and quiet. Yet we love knowing the best restaurants, shopping and beaches is less than 25 minutes away!

What makes this property unique

If you are looking for a rustic experience with all the conveniences of home, near to all of the excitement and beauty that Southern Delaware offers, this just might be the place for you!
