Vacation Rentals & Villas

With several museums, wildlife refuges, parks, houses, lighthouses, and other historic places a vacation to Delaware is a memorable experience. Although in terms of area Delaware ranks 46th in the United States, it's one of the most densely populated states and ranks 45th in terms of population. The capital of Delaware is Dover but its largest city is Wilmington. Another unique distinction of Delaware is that, it is home to the second longest twin span suspension bridge in the world -- the Delaware Memorial Bridge.

As most of Delaware is a part of the Atlantic Coastal Plain, it has a relatively moderate climate. The state is an amalgamation of a humid subtropical and a continental climate, this means that certain parts of the state experience hot, humid summers and mild to cool winters, whereas certain others experience a winter that is cold enough to support a fixed period of snow each year.

Residents of Sussex County also use Wicomico Regional Airport, as it is located less than 10 miles (16 km) from the Delaware border.
