Waterfront studio w/ pool - shopping and beaches
Guest rating: 4.9 / 5
Overview
Waterfront studio accommodation set along Cedar Creek in Delaware, located just off Route 1. The unit is designed as a compact, cozy retreat with creek views and shared outdoor/common areas on a host-occupied property. The listing notes that summer gatherings on-site can create occasional evening noise, so it may not suit guests seeking absolute quiet.
Studio layout & in-room essentials
The studio includes air conditioning and heating, cable TV, and a balcony for fresh air and views. A compact kitchen is equipped with essentials including a refrigerator, sink, microwave, and a griddle in place of a full stove, plus a small dining table. The bathroom is simple and functional with a walk-in shower, and the unit includes a stackable washer and dryer.
Pools, hot tub & outdoor time
Guests have access to shared water amenities including an outdoor pool plus an indoor pool, and a year-round hot tub located in a sunroom attached to the home. Fishing along the creek is permitted. Use of the pool or play set requires a signed waiver, and the play set is limited to children 8 and under.
Location & nearby food/drink
The studio is positioned about a 10-minute drive to the Delaware Turf Sports Complex and Milford’s shops and restaurants, and roughly 15 minutes to the beach, with Lewes also noted as about 15 minutes away. Nearby dining options in the Milford area include Big Oyster Brewery Milford, Arena’s Milford, Park Place Restaurant & Lounge, Black Sheep, Grotto Pizza, Buffalo Wild Wings, Applebee’s Grill + Bar, and Irish Eyes Pub & Restaurant.
Parking, policies & shared spaces
Free parking is available in the driveway; the studio is accessed via a two-car garage entry, but the garage itself is not available for guest parking or use. The property is pet-friendly with a required $100 pet fee per animal; pets must be leashed outdoors, crated if left unattended, and owners must clean up after them. Starter supplies (such as paper goods and coffee) are provided initially but are not replenished, and additional guests beyond the booked count may incur per-day fees (including if they use the pool).
Best for
This waterfront studio best suits couples, small families, and pet owners who want a creekside base near Route 1 with quick access to Milford, Lewes, and nearby beaches. It’s also practical for longer stays thanks to the in-unit washer/dryer, kitchen essentials, and free driveway parking, plus shared indoor/outdoor pool access and a year-round hot tub.
Travel tips
Plan for a short drive to key areas: Milford and the DE Turf Sports Complex are about 10 minutes away, and beaches are roughly 15 minutes away. The studio sits by woods and a creek; in summer, keep doors and windows closed to help minimize bugs. Access is through the garage entry, but park in the driveway since garage parking/use is not allowed.
