We were interested in staying in a historic property in a small town location. Suds and Sand was just as advertised. The renovation is a perfect blend of the old and new. The downstairs bedroom and upstairs were very accommodating. Air conditioning in first floor and upper floor worked very efficiently. Short trip to Broadkill beach if you wish to avoid the traffic to Rehobeth or Dewey. Only a 35-45 min trip with traffic anyway. Great choice will stay again in the future.. .

Enjoyed our time

We really enjoyed our stay in Milton! It's a little town, but there are some great restaurants and this house is within walking distance of it all. This house offered plenty of room for our family to enjoy time together, but also spread out when needed. (The 18 and 20 year old kids like to have some time alone). There is a nice fire pit in the backyard too, but we didn't have a chance to use it during the warm summer evenings. We will consider returning.

The house was very clean and in the perfect location for us. Parking and check in was a breeze and on top of that, the host was incredibly quick to answer any questions or help in any way possible. When we come back we will absolutely be renting this location out again. Would highly recommend staying here!

The property was just wonderful. The kitchen was VERY well-stocked (with cooking equipment as well as cooking basics like oil, salt, spices, etc). We booked this as a "Reading Vacation," so the large sectional couch and the screened in porch were PERFECTION. There were so many local restaurants that we were able to walk to and enjoy (Dogfish Head Brewery, Tequila Real, King's Ice Cream) and the neighborhood was ideal for all our dog walks each morning and evening. We couldn't have asked for a better rental. Thank you so very much!

The beds were comfy. Quite neighborhood. Close to the beaches and attractions. Really enjoyed our stay. Great response time from John on any questions.

Enjoyed our stay. Lots of areas to walk to. Was a great spot for our annual golf trip with multiple courses and dogfish head right down the street.

I really hate leaving a bad review, and I was hoping the host would respond to my message, but since that hasn't happened, I feel like I need to at least share the feedback. Communication with the host started out a little weird: I wanted to change the dates of my stay, which he was agreeable to, but he wanted to just make a verbal agreement on it instead of changing the dates in VRBO (I insisted on it and he did do it). The day before our stay, I emailed a few questions; he didn't respond, but my questions weren't urgent, so no big deal. I really wanted to like the house. I understand it is a historical home in the process of being renovated, and that always comes with some quirks. However, the air quality in the house was terrible, and the outside patio area (which was legitimately very cool) was covered in pollen and spiderwebs. The mildew was so bad that the whole family was coughing and had watering eyes. We emailed the host to let him know about the issue and that we were checking out early. Three days later, he has not responded. If you are looking for a place to crash with a large group, or you just enjoy a unique house and are not sensitive to allergens, you might love this place. It definitely has great potential, the surrounding town was super cute, and it's a 20 minute drive to Rehoboth. But for me, I'm sorry to say, it was not a great experience.

This was a very charming home. Plenty of room for all to enjoy.

We spent a week in this beautiful, restored home in historical Milton. The property was very clean and comfortable. We appreciated being able to have our two dogs with us. There was plenty of space to spread out. We loved the screened in porch off of the family room in back of the house, and the big, comfy couch. My sense is that the house itself is a continual work-in-progress, as any home that old will be. Be sure to look at the picture album of the dramatic restoration of the house! There were a few quirks, switches and outlets that didn't seem to work, but they didn't impact us much. The owner was very responsive by text message. We loved the charming town of Milton! It's very walkable, friendly, and a short drive to the beach, Lewes, or Rehoboth. There are plenty of good shops and restaurants nearby. Check out Dogfish Head Brewery and Milton Dough Bar. Don't miss King's Homemade Ice Cream at the end of the block. If you want to be pampered, Carneiro Nails & Spa offers a good pedicure.

We had a lovely time at this property, its been wonderfully restored and felt so cozy! Thank you for hosting us!

Historic home Was very nice and comfortable. Close to walk into town. Needs upkeep on out side deck screen doors and dog pen area. Overall very nice and had a good stay.

Great stay in a historic, charming home. Beautiful home within walking distance to great restaurants. This home has plenty of size and was very comfortable for me and my family- including the pups! Would definitely return.

We loved the quirky house! The pictures and description don't come close to what a nice, eclectic place this is. Location is convenient to everything in the area. The thermostat stopped working and John fixed it very quickly. No problems so look no further than this place.

The house had everything you needed to stay!! Great place

Beautiful home right in the heart of Milton. You can walk to all the bars and restaurants and homemade ice cream right around the corner. Since it was just my wife and I we didn't even use the 2nd floor which has to nice sized bedrooms. The 1st floor had everything we needed. Loved the family room addition on the back of the home including screened in deck and firepit out back. Look forward to staying again. Beaches a short drive away.

Listing was accurate. Owner was accommodating and our friends and dogs all enjoyed the property.

The home was very neat. It had old world charm and modernism combined. Clean, everything you need in the kitchen and a cool outdoor deck and yard. We typically don't stay in same place two years in a row, but might be making an exception. The town of Milton was very nice as well.

The house comfortably met our needs.

Our stay was great. House was spacious, clean and had a great homey feel. Great recommendations for restaurants provided. Teen and pet friendly. :)

We absolutely loved the historic town of Milton. From the friendliness of the community to the beautiful walks in the well-maintained park areas, to the concerts, it was a pleasure to stay in this quaint town. The historic home was a treat. We spent time on the screened-in deck sipping coffee in the a.m. and wine in the p.m. There is lots of room for all, and more space than I envisioned for our beagle Sammi to be let out. The kitchen was great and nicely equipped. It was cool, extremely quiet, and comfortable. We loved walking to buy ice cream at the end of the block. Be sure to try authentic Mexican food at TEQUILA REAL, well within walking distance from the house. Wonderful location, comfortable beds for great sleeping, close to beaches...what more could you ask for? We will try to get back soon!!!

Enjoyed this historic property And porches- coffee on front porch in morning and cocktails on back porch at dusk, great space for our doggo to enjoy with us . Home is still a work in progress but pleasant to visit and see the possibilities. Milton is quiet and charming and close to beaches and good restaurants. We would return!!

We came for a family gathering and this house was very comfortable and allowed all of us to all have a little privacy… fun backyard with firepit where we enjoyed most of our evenings!

Perfect for two families participating in Sports at the Beach.

Our stay was nice and the house was clean, large enough for the five of us. We were there for a baseball tournament and the house was a short easy drive to Sports at the Beach. Milton is a quaint town. Recommend staying here

Went down for race weekend and on Saturday we were able to fish, go to the beach and end the night at the brewery… great weekend

I stayed for 3 nights in mid-September. I had never been to Delaware, and Milton is a sweet little town, surrounded by cornfields, with many lovely Victorian houses and gardens The VRBO house on Broad Street has a lovely screened porch overlooking the back yard, where I could sit and listen to the crickets at dusk. I like quiet places, and certainly needed one after the past 18 pandemic months. Needed to collect my thoughts and energy. Milton and this house were perfect. Easy drive to the beach and Cape Henlopen Park and the beach. The Doughbar has great pizza.

We adored this beautiful home and had a great experience with the owner, who was kind and easy to communicate with. The house is perfect for a family vacation - the bedrooms are spacious and the living space is plentiful. The historic charm of the home, mixed with modern updates, is beautiful. Lewes and Rehoboth beaches are both easy drives away. We had a great time and can’t wait to come back again!
