Instead of parking problems, heavy traffic & crowded beaches, a typical day could look something like this:

In the early morning, from your master bedroom’s private sundeck; view the eastern sky & large ships that appear small, moving effortlessly through a vast body of water while you are enjoying your first cup of coffee. Walk over your small dune that reveals the shoreline of the Delaware Bay; soothe your soul by feeling the calmness of a new day.
As you watch the pink, orange, & gold sunrise over the water, the calm changes, you feel a breeze coming from the salty sea, you see & hear the waves begin to lap onto the beach, birds appear, start chirping, & move toward the one-foot surf; you now know why Broadkill Beach is the best-kept secret in all of Delaware.

Linger & watch the Cape May/Lewes Ferry travel across the mouth of the Delaware Bay to its destination. Watch dolphins playing, splashing & catching fish just in front of you. Walk north toward the Broadkill Store, turn over stranded horseshoe crabs & stop to investigate the life on & around the rock jetty.

At low tide look for hermit crabs, starfish, conchs & other sea life in the shallow water around these rocks. Read, relax, swim, take a nap at the water’s edge & refresh yourself with lunch in the cool air conditioning of your retreat just behind the small dune you crossed over earlier in the day.

Walk south from your private beach path toward Beach Plum Island State Park & ask the fishermen if they are catching anything. Look south & identify the Roosevelt Inlet, historic Lewes, Henlopen Point & the breakwater lighthouse.

Return to your resting place, take an outdoor shower & plan your evening by making sure you are back home to sit on the bench seats of your private observation deck to watch a spectacular sunset over a Federal Wildlife Refuge & waterway adjoining your own backyard.

This open-concept home, built in the perfect location, was designed for comfort, convenience, & enjoyment to be shared with family, friends, & now with you. It consists of two living areas that are included in the weekly rental fee; a three-bedroom house & a one-room efficiency room that sleeps 3. The two areas are connected by an enclosed staircase & access to an outdoor shower, changing area, & privacy space.

Imagine the convenience of bringing your own boat to launch & dock in back, giving you access to limitless activities & adventures that few people are fortunate enough to discover or experience. Spend the day fishing & crabbing from the dock, exploring winding tributaries in the backwaters, drifting on the Broadkill River, charging through the Roosevelt Inlet into the open expanse of the Delaware Bay & Atlantic Ocean waiting for you to experience all it has to offer.

BRING YOUR TOYS, IF YOU DON'T, YOU'LL WISH YOU HAD!
Launch your boat, jet skis, canoes, kayaks & other flotation vessels into the backwaters. Navigate south on the Broadkill River to Lewes for a cocktail & meal at the waterside restaurants. Go out the Roosevelt Inlet for bay fishing or jet skiing. Come around on the bay to your home at Broadkill & take the family for a ride on the jet skis, go tubing & wakeboarding, or load everyone up on your pontoon boat for a day trip & picnic lunch.
Head back in the Inlet & get a gasoline fill-up on the water in Lewes. Your dock is long enough to hold a 24-foot pontoon boat in the water for the week & still have plenty of room to crab, fish, catch minnows, sunbathe, put up a baby pool, fill with water, bird watch, sit, & relax.

Replenish your mind & soul with the serenity of the environment, meditate, read, & experience the sunset from the dock of your private oasis.

The historic town of Milton has a charming downtown at the beginning of the Broadkill River. Most restaurants overlook the river or fresh water Wagamon’s pond. Fishing off the docks or on the pond are favorite locations for avid anglers to catch a meal. The state record largemouth bass was caught here.

The Milton Museum gives the history of the town as a shipbuilding town during colonial time as well as button making from clam shells, rope making, and holy garland in the late fall to sell in Philadelphia.
The practically self sustaining Dogfish Head brewery was once a cannery, and now includes beer making, a distillery, and casual restaurant. Plan on spending an afternoon there and play some bocce ball if it is not too hot.
Other Milton restaurants include:
• Taco Real Mexican
• The Miltonian Pizzeria
• Irish Eyes Pub Fare in Milton (also located on the dock at Lewes, DE)
• Dough Bar with a varied menu American cuisine ( behind Irish Eyes )
• Beaches Seafood
• The Backyard ( American cuisine )
