This lovely 3 bedroom, 2 bath cottage is nestled just 20 feet from the Canal. A screened in back porch gives a wonderful view. The cottage is extremely clean and furnished with all you’ll need for a relaxing stay.

This home is exactly as described, if not better. On the bay, but a short walk to the beach. In close proximity to all restaurants and shopping area. The home was spotless. Great walking area for dogs, as there is very little traffic. Would definitely rent this home again. Perfect for families, or a group of friends.

Exactly what we were looking for in a rental! Great location, great neighbors next door, and Dana graciously extended our stay an extra night. Would have liked to have had a more up to date vacuum available, but would happily stay there again!

The house was the perfect size for us and our dog. It had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable; showers worked great. Location was convenient to beach and town. Able to ride bikes all over. Neighbors were friendly and helpful. We were disappointed to not catch any fish off the dock.

The light, “beachy” cottage had everything our family of 4 needed. Loved the quiet street, and the fire pit out back by the canal. Short walk to the beach, or a short drive to the dog friendly beach! Love to make a return trip!!

Blue Cottage was a nice little getaway for my Wife and I as we celebrated our 30-year wedding anniversary. Great location, nice property, South Bethany folks are super-friendly, and we (and dog) enjoyed walking the canals and the beach.
Thanks!

good location with a short walk to the beach.The tv area is a little small for six people at once,but wasn't a big deal because we spent most of our time outside.The beds and chairs were very comfortable,and overall cleanliness was good.The wood steps to the front door were a little slippery for our old dog.We put carpet pads on our steps at our house and it helped.We really enjoyed our stay.

Simply perfect for our needs. The owners provided all of the essentials and the location was ideal for our dogs. We walked to the “dog” beach daily and enjoyed meeting other dog owners and of course the happiest of dogs running together on the beach. We brought our kayaks and explored the canals and bays. We drank wine by the fire pit while watching boats motor down the canal. Our neighbors were lovely and honestly and the September whether was ideal! We cannot wait to come back next year.

Perfect location
We have stayed all over Bethany over the years, and we loved staying in this location. Being able to walk to the beach but also enjoying the screened in porch on the canal was fantastic.

We enjoyed having direct canal access. We rented kayaks for the week and it was very convenient. Also, it is just a short walk to the beach. The house was clean and well equipped. The owners thought of everything you could need like extra hooks to hang things and places to charge your phone by the nightstands.

This was our first time visiting Bethany Beach and we had a wonderful stay at this property! It’s close enough to the beach that you could walk but we chose to drive and not lug all of our things across a main road. We loved that it was close to many great restaurants and the boardwalk. Dana was very helpful and responsive during the booking process and our stay! The home was clean upon our arrival and was homey feeling. It was overall a great stay!

We had a pleasant, comfortable stay in this cottage decorated in shades of sea and sky.
