About this house rental
'THE IGUANA HOUSE'
Located in South Bowers Beach Island directly on the beach and located at the widest point of the Delaware Bay, approx 28 miles across to NJ, this Island home offers something very special that the large resorts don't have, peace and quiet.
Step right onto the sand from this beautiful beach home. If fishing is your thing, cast your line into the water and fresh fish are yours for breakfast or dinner, fishing license required.
You can put your small boat or kayak in the water right off the beach and explore local tributaries where you will find not only the serenity of a wilderness-like landscape but also many species of fish and crabs. Children can ride bikes on the quiet Island road, roller blade or play on the beach, collecting shells and sea glass and be amazed at the site of prehistoric horseshoe crabs that migrate to this area from South America.
Let the sun rising over the Bay and the sound of sea birds wake you in the morning and the gentle rustle of the Bay lapping at the beach lull you to sleep. Enjoy the 'Quiet Life', come to South Bowers Island...
Towels and linens/sheets are not included in your rental... they are available for additional cost.
The road is subject to tidal flooding. There is an app available for mobile phones called Tides Near Me (its free). Once you open it, pick Delaware, Milford, Mispillion River Entrance. It will give you the best tide information.
Higher clearance vehicles recommended.
Refund policy:
If renter cancels within two (2) weeks of arrival all monies will be forfeited.
If the renter cancels prior to two (2) weeks of arrival, refund if any, will be determined by the owner’s ability to re-rent the property for the same amount of money for the same period of time. If successful we will refund full rental amount and security less a 20% administration fee.

The Home was amazing and situated close to the beach and with a beautiful view over the marsh as well. Accross the inlet was more populated but this beach felt peaceful with abundant wildlife. The change from high to low tide was amazing to watch as an entire wide sandbar appeared then connected to the shore. It was amazing to explore for everything from whelks, clams, mussels, and a multitude horseshoe crabs who provided the additional sport of flipping them back over if they were belly up. The high tide wet the main road coming in which was cool to watch also. We had one warm light wind day and were able to explore on our paddle-boards which was fun as well. The beds were comfortable and gathering space great for our adult kid’s but looks well set up for all ages. If you are picky about water, we used a Britta filtered pitcher and it did great. Margo was wonderful checking in with us and saved the day with my last minute request for the linens. I had missed that in the description. We could not have asked for a nicer home or hosts. We would love to stay here again .
