Nice beach cottage near the beach and marina. Went to visit for a family weekend. Everything was just a advertised and the cold drinks in the fridge was a nice touch since it was so hot out. The owner were available when the lock code wouldn't work, it was resolved immediately. Definitely will stay again.
Fortescue is my family's hometown, so finding a great place to stay at an affordable price meant a lot to me and my sister. This wonderful house is clean and cheerful with lots of light. The hosts provided all kinds of extras, like spices, cold water in the fridge, eggs, plastic bags, cleaning products, coffee, and tea. In the back of the house there is a wonderfully shaded sitting area with comfortable chairs and even a fire pit, which would be great for a stay during the cooler months. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful little house and hope to return soon.
We enjoyed this little house in a little fishing village! It's a cute and well-stocked property, very comfortable for 2 people and 2 dogs. While we didn't get around to utilizing the back yard much, there was a nice fire pit area! There is a little beach down at one end of town, however during our time there (end of June) there were SO many horseflies! This definitely isn't a knock against the house and property, but just a note about the area and time of year. We couldn't spend anytime outside at the beach without getting swarmed and eaten up, so we drove to Wildwood Beach instead. But Fortescue is a cute town with a nice marina area, you can charter a fishing boat and get a cool experience there!
House was clean and well-supplied, located in a quiet neighborhood just down the street from the marina and beach. Perfect for a quick weekend getaway!
Relaxing visit. Walk to beach, fish, collect sea glass, great seafood at Red Eye Crab, convenient to luncheonette and bait shop. Really enjoyed our stay!
We traveled as two couples for a short fishing trip. We absolutely loved the house and we met the host, (great guy), while we were surf fishing. The house was stocked with everything we could need. We plan to return.
My girlfriend, dog and I rented the Sandcastle for 3 nights. The house was immaculate and recently renovated and the new gas fireplace/heater was perfect during the chilly nights. The property manager was present if needed and has thoroughly stock the property with essential items. If your looking for a near by getaway that is peaceful,picturesque with not much to do other than enjoy Delaware bays scenery and fishing, then this is the place for you. .
This was our 2nd stay and it did not disappoint. Cute, comfortable, beautiful sunrises and quiet community. Our pup loved the beach that was just a short walk away. The cottage itself is so quaint and well equipped with whatever you need.
My girlfriend, dog and I were just looking for a quiet place where we could take the dog for walks on the beach and have a bonfire at night and this place is perfect for that type of stay.
Weâve just left from our second stay at The Sand Castle, and was just as wonderful as our first stay! Clean, comfortable, and an incredibly friendly small community! Itâs got a fishing community vibe, and the residents are super friendly. We spent most of our nights cooking a nice dinner and walking to the beach to see the fabulous sunsets! If youâre looking for nightlife, this is not the place for you! If you want a small relaxing laid back vibe, it is the place for you!
Very cute and comfortable cottage! We enjoyed our stay and appreciated all of the extras like keurig pods, shampoo, etc. We also enjoyed the one restaurant in town, the Charlesworth, with its delightful owner and excellent seafood, and walking on the beach with horseshoe crabs. We look forward to a future visit.
My family had a great stay here! The property is clean and well cared for. The kitchen sink has minor slow drain problem, but it's being addressed. The house is tidy and cozy. The hosts were exceptionally helpful and go out of their way for their guests. We would stay here again.
We had a great time at the property! Quiet beach location. Love the bay. We fished off the beach and caught all sorts of fish! The sunsets are beautiful. Owner was easy to communicate with and how was very comfortable. Hope to return soon.
It was the perfect size for me and the dogs. We were coming back to see family and just needed a clean, local spot to spend nights. This was perfect and I'll definitely book again when visiting in the future.
