The architecture is award-winning. The location is just steps from the warm sand of peaceful Fenwick Island beaches. The ocean view deck has room for everyone to dine and lounge while gazing out over the blue Atlantic. And it’s one of only 4 vacation rentals with a pool and hot tub on Fenwick Island.
If it sounds like a dream, that’s because it is. The Indian House is a sprawling six-bedroom (four of which are master suites!) gem just a stone’s throw from the tide line. Escape to this getaway on the beach and you’ll have more than enough room for your group to vacation on their own terms—picture days on the green followed by late night movies on a cinematic TV, or sun-kissed afternoons on the beach and ocean-view evening barbecues.

LIVING AREAS
You’ll reap the benefits of thoughtful architectural design in the top-floor great room. Tall windows and an open layout create a sun-filled space that you’ll love to spend time in—pick the right spot and you may even enjoy peek-a-boo ocean views through a charming porthole-inspired window.
When it comes to relaxation here, you’re in charge. Gather in front of the fireplace and 4K 55” flat screen TV—it’s like having your own personal movie theater right at home. Or snuggle into a quiet sitting area with a good book for a quiet evening in. And with an extra den downstairs, you can let the kids do what they do best: laugh, play, build pillow forts, face-off in board games…it’s their vacation, too!
Fenwick Island's restaurant scene is not-to-be-missed—but neither is this state-of-the-art kitchen. Put aside a night to play chef with a full suite of appliances (including two sinks, a refrigerator, another refrigerator on the first floor, and a mini-fridge) plus all the cookware and dishes you’ll need.
A long granite bar offers a spot for several helpers to chop and prep—or just keep you company with a cold glass of wine in hand. The kids will love perching here for pancake breakfasts before the beach. And with a long dining table for 12 and additional seating for 3 with a table extension you can serve up a special seafood feast right in the comfort of your home-away-from-home. The nearby kitchen island can seat 4.
OUTDOOR SPACES
The toughest choice you’ll have to make? Where to spend time in the sun.
Sure, there’s the beach less than 1 one-minute walk away. But there’s also your own private ocean-view deck with a BBQ and dining space for afternoon al fresco meals and bistro tables where you can share a conversation and cold drink while feeling the ocean breeze.
If you like splashing around in the sunshine (who doesn’t?), we have good news for you. At The Indian House, you’ll have one of only 4 private pools on Fenwick Island all to yourself. Spend whole days practicing your backstroke or working on your suntan in a poolside lounger, then watch the stars come out while unwinding in the hot tub.
And if you’re lucky enough to claim one of the four master suites, you’ll have your own private balcony to sneak out to. Bring your coffee or your loved one out there for some early morning tranquility before another fun-filled day on the beach begins.

DISCOVER FENWICK ISLAND
Here’s the secret about Fenwick Island: it’s among Delaware’s most beautiful beaches, but without the crowds. (See comparison photos in our photo album of Fenwick uncrowded beach vs Bethany's)When you stay here, you can stroll just a few minutes over to the tide line and have no problem finding a space to spread out your towel. And when you’re this close to the beach, you can even stop home for a mid-afternoon BBQ on your deck.
Or, instead opt for a meal out at an array of restaurants within walking distance. Try Our Harvest for artisan breads and cheeses and locally sourced seafood and ingredients, Mancini’s for a classic family pizza dinner, or Jimmy’s for old-school American breakfast.
When you’re ready for adventure, take our 8 bikes for a spin up and down the coastline. Or head to Little Assawoman Bay and rent a pontoon boat, kayak, or jet ski for a wet and wild afternoon out on the water.
