About the host
Hosted by Mike
Welcome to Lewes (loo-iss) and the beauty of coastal Delaware. Our family enjoys kayaking, paddle boarding, the bike trails, fishing, flying kites, throwing the Frisbee on the beach, sunset cruises, dining at the terrific local restaurants, ice cream shops and enjoying much needed R&R. Lewes provides the perfect seaside retreat for all ages. We are native Delawareans and enjoy sharing our local recommendations with our guests. We look forward to hosting you!
Why they chose this property
Lewes offers a charming downtown with excellent restaurants, shops, boutiques, galleries, parks, & museums. Lewes Beach is a hidden gem with soft sand, beautiful views and tons of wildlife. Better yet, it's all within walking distance of our condo.
Your home base is just a few yards away from the Lewes-Rehoboth Canal. The canal begins at the Roosevelt Inlet where it connects with the Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The canal offers excellent fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and boating. The canal is also home to dockside restaurants with outdoor seating (great for sunsets), marinas, and sport fishing shops. The Lewes Canal Front Park offers tennis/basketball courts, a playground, and a boat ramp to launch kayaks. Yoga in the park is offered on Sundays and free weekly concerts, outdoor movies and events are offered throughout the summer at the park. There are also events in the fall and winter months.
Lewes Beach is less than a half-mile walk or bicycle ride. This beautiful stretch of beach offers views of lighthouses and the Cape May-Lewes ferry boats that come and go throughout the day. The ferry terminal features a dockside bar and grill. There's also a children's play area by the ferry terminal.
Cape Henlopen Seashore State Park is just two miles from the condo. You can bike or drive into the park and enjoy the gorgeous sand dunes, pristine Atlantic Ocean beaches, surfing, a fishing pier, lighthouses, WWII lookout towers, trails and The Seaside Nature Center. We also highly recommend visiting the state park for gorgeous sunrise and sunset viewing from "The Point" (north end of park). Herring Point (south end of the park) is a great beach during the day and beautiful at sunset as well. We see dolphins swimming there frequently.
Bike trails are plentiful and easy to access around town.
