1 Br Apartment Vacation Rental In Milton, Delaware

Surrounded by nature preserves and farmland, tiny historic Milton is a hidden gem. The apartment is one flight up, over a detached garage (the garage is not available). The owner lives in the main house across the yard. The sunny living area is open plan with sliders to a small balcony. The efficiency kitchen has a fridge, microwave, hot plate, air fryer and toaster but there are great options, even in walking distance, for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

There is a comfortable queen-size bed. The bathroom includes a washer and dryer. There are tv's in the living room and bedroom with basic cable and streaming services. The apartment has wi-fi, but I find it is not as reliable as in a metropolitan area. The neighborhood is mostly quiet, but if you're really lucky, the ear-splitting siren will sound for the volunteer firemen, so you'll get the full small-town experience.

Almost anything you need is close by the apartment, so you have the option to remain in town for walkable restaurants, parks, shops and entertainment, including at the Milton Theater. For necessities, it's just a half-mile to the grocery and drug stores. One mile away, beer-lovers mecca Dogfish Head, often hosts events. Some other events in town include free, summer concerts on Wednesdays and Thursdays, Historical Society special exhibits or walking tours, the Horseshoe crab and Shorebird festival, old-fashioned 4th of July celebration, garden tour, art walk, Halloween in the Park, holiday house tour, Holly Fest, Christmas Parade, and St Patrick's Day Parade. Miltonians love Halloween and Christmas, and a lot of houses are decorated, so it is especially fun to walk around town at those times.

Milton's a great town for walking, but in 10 mins drive are Broadkill Beach, McCabe Nature Preserve, Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge, golf course, winery, Lavender Fields, and other attractions. Outside Milton, it's 12 miles to lovely Lewes, 15 mi to beautiful Cape Henlopen State Park, or 16 mi to check out the scene at the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk. The area has tons of shopping, everything from chain store outlets to unique boutiques, a plethora of outstanding restaurants are on offer, and any recreation you'd expect on a beach vacation (and some you wouldn't, like Goat Joy).

If you're in the area for work, the apartment is conveniently situated, about 20 minutes drive to Beebe Healthcare in Lewes, Bayhealth Hospital Sussex Campus in Milford, Georgetown, or Millsboro.

Milton is home to this apartment. Shoppers can check out Tanger Outlets, while everyone can enjoy the natural beauty of Lewes Beach and Cape Henlopen State Park. Midway Speedway and Lightship Overfalls are also worth visiting.
