Cozy cottage on the Miller farm.

This secluded and tranquil cottage on a 20 acre hobby farm is the perfect getaway. With walking trails from the back door to Abbott's Mill Nature Center on the adjacent property, it is perfect for birders, nature lovers, or just for a nice walk.
We are an easy 15 minute drive from the DE Turf Sports Complex on Rt. 1 north of Milford and 35 minutes from Sports at the Beach near Georgetown.
The cottage is small but feels spacious with a vaulted living room ceiling and open floor plan. There is lots of natural light with large windows throughout and french doors onto the beautiful screened porch. There is a gas grill just out the back door. The porch makes for wonderful indoor/outdoor living; deer can often be spotted in the wooded side yard or in the meadow out back. Wild turkeys show up occasionally as well.
The cottage is shaded and air conditioned for wonderful summer days and evenings and the radiant floor heat makes it cozy and warm in the winter.
Take a walk to the creek at the rear of the property or stroll through the woods to Abbott's Mill Nature Center. Abbott's is a 313-acre Nature Preserve and features trails open to the public, a preserved gristmill, a pond, meadows, an animal collection, and educational programs. They also host Music at the Mill on select summer weekends.
The Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay beaches are nearby. Lewes (30 minutes), Rehoboth Beach (30 minutes), and Ocean City, Maryland (45 minutes) are popular beach destinations. Other nearby attractions are Cape Henlopen State Park, Killens Pond State Park, and the Cape May/Lewes Ferry. Delaware Bay beaches are popular for hunting for sea glass and are only 15 to 20 minutes away.
Enjoy tax free shopping at the Tanger Outlets near Rehoboth Beach.
Downtown Milford is a 5 minute drive and features coffee shops, antique stores, barbershops, restaurants, and the Mispillion River walk.

Absolutely fantastic vacation rental

Wonderful Stay

This is a perfect place to stay. Easy driving distance to beaches and amenities, but secluded and quiet. The cottage is lovely and comfortable. The animals are friendly and entertaining. The smallest goat kept escaping from the pasture to graze in the yard. The host were friendly and helpful. All around one of the very best VRBO's we have stayed at.

Comfy-Clean-Slice of heaven…

This lil cottage is a slice of heaven on earth! The land and scenery is breathtaking! We came to visit our son who is recently stationed at Dover Air Force Base and our party of 5 truly enjoyed our stay here. It was super comfy, super clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely book again when we return!

Peaceful country cottage

The property was perfect for us three sisters. It was easy to find with the directions the owners give once you book your stay. The place was clean and tidy. Book and game lovers will find a nice selection of books and games. No complaints here!

Cozy stay

The cottage was perfect for a small family getaway. The screened porch was lovey to sit at for breakfast or to sit out and read after a day at the beach. It’s a short drive to Lewes beach, which was beautiful and relaxing. If you’re looking for a quite place to stay, this cottage is perfect

Our second stay at Miller’s cozy cottage. Wonderful hosts and beautiful place to stay in a peaceful setting. Lots of animal friends on the farm to interact with too. The cottage was clean, well equipped with everything you need and Duane and Teresa were excellent hosts and there to help when needed. Thank you for a great stay and we look forward to next year.
