Beautifully renovated beach house!

My family spent 2 weeks at this house in July and we had a fabulous time! The hosts of the house were very responsive to questions, the house was beautifully redone, and the proximity to the beach was perfect! We will definitely stay here again.

Excellent property which perfectly met our needs.

The property was well maintained; great location but more importantly we were made to feel like we were part of the family. They had every amenity you could possibly need with very detailed instructions on the ins and outs of the property. We would definitely visit again. Thank you for such a lovely experience and kindness to our family.

Cozy cottage stay

We absolutely adored the house for many reasons. It is newly renovated and feels comfortable and beachy at the same time. The owners equip the house with many items other homes don't include such as coffee, basic spices, and wonderful kitchen appliances. Would highly recommend a stay at this wonderful home.

Fantastic cottage--great for families and pets

My family of 6 and yellow lab were wowed by this adorable cottage located about 2 blocks from Dewey beach on a nice quiet street. We found everything very comfortable and very clean. The house is well stocked with everything you will need (from kitchen and cleaning gear to extra toiletries in case you forget anything).

Amazing Stay at Dewey Beach!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this cozy cottage! Amenities galore - anything you could possibly need is there. Having access to beach chairs and a wagon to walk them the short distance to the beach was so convenient. We enjoyed mornings on the screened in porch with coffee. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We will certainly be back!

Third stay @ this wonderful cottage

Another great vacation at what has become our home base in Rehoboth / Dewey Beach! Accommodations are fantastic, nice shade for being outside and the screened in porch is a always a favorite. Brian and Beth are amazing hosts and we can't imagine staying anywhere else. So many fun things to do, restaurants to sample and close to everything while being in a very quiet neighborhood. Highly recommend, as this is a relaxing, spacious cottage and a short walk to the ocean!!! Currently working to determine dates for our next stay at this favorite listing.

Second time in this cottage, and all the amenities from last year remain!

Another great summer vacation with family and friends! The location is great, the house is comfortable, well-stocked, and wonderful for hosting groups. Plenty of seating areas inside and out. The house also has ample offstreet parking in the quiet neighborhood of Rehoboth by the Sea. The owners Brian and Beth (as always) are responsive and helpful, and truly want guests to feel at home. Would absolutely rent from them again!

A great Dewey Beach vacation home

This was our second time staying at this house and we were just as pleased the second time around! The house has all the amenities of home and is easy walking distance to the beach. The Rehoboth boardwalk is not far to walk and grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and other entertainment is close by. The owners are very responsive and helpful and genuinely concerned that we were comfortable. A definite return location for my family!

Clean, cozy and great location

I will definitely be renting this house again! Brian was SO easy to work with and quick to respond to any questions we had. The house was so clean and had supplies that most other rentals don’t include, for example k cups for the keurig. The location was perfect, just blocks from the beach, feet from a Jolly Trolley stop and walking distance to restaurants and entertainment. I highly recommend staying here!

Very clean. Close to beach. It was very helpful having dish soap, tide pods, paper towels/plates/cups, Kuerig pods already there. Saved a lot of packing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this well thought out guest house.

About the host

Hosted by Brian and Beth Bruffey

Host profile image
My family has been coming to the Dewey and Rehoboth beaches for over 40+ years. Growing up with 4 brothers and 1 sister in Silver Spring, Maryland, our parents gave us the opportunity to build and enjoy an incredible amount of memorable experiences at the shore. My Mom, along with my older brother, currently live in Rehoboth. We're incredibly fortunate to have this home and the opportunity to share it with others to enjoy all of the fun the beach has to offer to create those unique, memorable family and friends experiences.

Why they chose this property

My wife, Beth and I purchased this property to provide the same opportunities for our family of three young men and their anticipated future families...the same opportunities my parents provided for us over the past 40+ years. We're anticipating 123 Carolina will be their vacation destination for their families for the next 40+ years as well! This area is consistently recognized as one of the top vacation places in the country. How can you not love Dewey and Rehoboth Beach?

What makes this property unique

Convenient Oceanside access to the beach is just a 2 block walk away. Some days, you can even hear the waves crashing on the beach from the cottage front porch! Very dog friendly area and walking distance to many of the Dewey Beach and Rehoboth activities. Featuring great restaurants, family atmosphere, boardwalk, shops, Jolly Trolley transportation, fishing and crabbing, summer night-life activities, and of course, the sun and fun at the beach, Dewey & Rehoboth have everything for a wonderful, restful and relaxing vacation...most importantly, building those cherished memories!
