About this property

907 Bayshore - Large home in Broadkill. Just a block to the beach!

This cozy cottage is surprisingly spacious and as relaxing as a cool summer breeze. A large corner lot gives the feel of privacy while retaining the convenience of being one block from the beach. The beach access is at the end of a road so very convenient and an easy walk from the house.

There is a sizable deck with a large outdoor shower. The house also has an all-season room to catch the breezes without the bugs. There are four bedrooms and a den with an unusually comfortable futon. The house can easily accommodate 11 sleepers. It's topped off with an amazing cupola that provides a 360 degree view.

Furnished with an understated, casual comfort there are many treasures to discover including antique clocks, and books. There is no better place to experience the ease and freedom of beach life!

Comfortable house on Broadkill.

We enjoyed our off season week at the beach. The house was great. Love the big old gas stove! The only real complaint is that the dishwasher doesn’t work very well and need to be replaced. Loved the cool cupola and all the books!

Great place and short walk to the beach

Very charming and comfortable with amazingly functional kitchen. Nice fenced yard for the pets and great/friendly neighbors. We will be back. BRING your own TP, trash bags, towels and face cloths. We will be back.

July 2017 Stay

The entire family was thrilled with the Broadkill Writers Retreat house. The picture of my grandson sums up how we all felt! Large enough for six adults and 2 active grandkids, none of us felt like we were cramped. Everything worked fine and we encountered no problems during our stay. Check-in was a breeze and even though the cleaners didn't get there until after 2pm, they efficiently cleaned the place in less than an hour. With easy access to the beach, plenty of parking, a breezy screened porch and large open deck, everyone got a full dose of summer.

Great place, they have pretty much everything you need already here. The living room had some debris and wire pieces we had to clean up but not deal. Walk to the beach, got tons of shells and the house is pretty much perfect for us. I would say the pictures don’t do it justice. Wall decor and books everywhere, very cool. Broadkill and this rental are hidden gems, we will book again next year.

Quiet and Peaceful, But A Bit Disappointing House

This house, located about 20-30 minutes outside of Lewes, DE is peaceful and quiet and only a very short walk to the beach. The house itself leaves something to be desired - the AC only works downstairs (no vents upstairs), it was a bit musty as if it hadn't seen visitors in a while, the small backyard was uneven and obviously built over a septic tank, and some of the appliances were not functioning. The management company's rules and regulations were a bit onerous and unfriendly as well. However, there is a very well-stocked load of books and games all over the house, plenty of room to spread out, an outdoor shower/playroom, and comfy furniture for a relaxing weekend.

Our own private beach!

We were very pleased with our rental at Broadkill Beach. The home was large and homey. It had everything you could possibly need. The bedrooms were nice sized. The stove was awesome. The beach was a short walk away. Every time we went to the beach there were only a couple people there. Sometimes we were the only ones. It was like having your own private beach! If you are looking for a very nice home very close to the beach away from all the bright lights and chaos this is for you. Lewes, Rehoboth Beach and other beaches are only a short drive away.

Overall we were pleased

Liked the fact that there were enough chairs for everyone in each room. Liked the fact that there was enough silverware, glasses, and dishes for the day. In other words, didn't have to wash dishes after every meal. Liked the deck cover since which kept the floor cooler. Loved that location of beach to the house. Loved the quietness of the beach, except when our dog barked because he wanted to play and we weren't throwing the ball fast enough. Since it is a pet friendly environment, it would have been nice if the entire yard had been fenced so we could have let the dog run off of the leash in the yard. Disliked the mosquitoes and flies, but that's not your fault. The lack of closet space was a small problem, but next year we will take hooks to put over the doors. We probably only really noticed it this year because we all had dress cloths to attend a wedding the second weekend. Dishwasher was sometimes temperamental, but we always managed to get it to work. We liked it well enough that we reserved for 2 weeks in 2019. If you want any other information, please feel free to contact me. See you in 2019.

Beautiful beach house

We loved our stay at the Broadkill Writers Resort!! Books on display in every room, plenty of room for the 6 of us, and close proximity to the beach. Took the dogs to the beach every day, and our teens went the the more popular beaches down the coast, just a short ride away. We lived riding our bikes and running through the "main" road of Broadkill, which seemed like it had more foot traffic than cars. We would certainly be happy to go back next year!

Wonderful house and location

This home was greater than expected, plenty of room for 5 adults, 2 preschool age kids and a couple of dogs. So many books, games and well furnished rooms. This is a perfect getaway place, and the neighbors are great(the folks who live there year round). Short walk to the beach tops it off. Enjoy.

Great rental for any time of year!

I have stayed at several rentals in the area and Broadkill Resort is one of the most comfortable and well equiped. The bedrooms are roomy with comfortable mattresses. There is plenty of comfortable seating between the living room and enclosed porch and there is a huge selection of books and games for when you aren't at the beach (which is just a short walk away). If you like to cook there is just about anything you would need to make a good meal and enough dishes to go around. It is also nice to be within easy walking distance of the little store. The fireplace was a nice touch since we were visiting off season. We will most certainly return!

Wonderful family beach house! Has it all!

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Firstly Jennifer, the owner, was particularly helpful. The location was great and so close for getting to and from the beach. Property was perfect - clean, charming, airy & breezy, large, with loads of nice touches like boogey boards, giant outdoor shower, cupula, super-stocked kitchen, and amazing diner-style griddle/stove. We spent morning and evenings enjoying the fabulous covered porch area! Looking forward to staying in your property again next year Jennifer, thanks for a great holiday!
