Travel to Georgetown for a peaceful village-style escape
The quaint, storybook town of Georgetown, Delaware, is awash with grand Victorian Gothic architecture, rich with captivating heritage, and surrounded by rolling fields and forests, with the beach-lined Atlantic coast just 15 miles away to the east. Whatever type of traveler you are, you'll find a Georgetown vacation rental to suit _ the town, neighboring countryside, and coast boast a mix of family-sized cottages and lodges, quiet condos and romantic luxury apartments.
Old-world architecture and heritage museums
With a Georgetown vacation rental, history and heritage is never far away. The town center itself is blanketed in old-world buildings and architectural marvels. Many of these are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, including the Sussex County Courthouse, a mid-19th-century redbrick courthouse fronted by white colonnades. Another key sight is St Paul's Episcopal Church, a huge mid-19th-century redbrick structure with a sharp-pointed Victorian Gothic spire. The Marvel Carriage Museum is another must-see, an open-air museum housing a variety of perfectly-preserved antique carriages.
Hunting and hiking in Georgetown's woodland
Booking a Georgetown vacation rental means putting yourself near the heart of the unblemished, deep green Delaware wilderness. The Redden State Forest is just 4 miles north of Georgetown, a 12,400-acre stretch of rugged pine, oak, and maple, with countless hiking, biking and horse-riding trails, as well as dedicated birdwatching areas and _ in season _ timbered tracks for deer hunting. True wildlife lovers can venture out to Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge, a vast coastal marshland preserve _ 14 miles northeast of Georgetown _ where the name of the game is waterfowl hunting, fishing, and kid-oriented environmental education exhibits.
Summer brings sunshine to quaint Georgetown
Georgetown and the rest of Delaware's Sussex County experience 4 distinct seasons, with a reasonable amount of rain spread across the year _ mostly in spring and fall _ and some snowfall during the winter months. In the height of summer _ the month of July _ temperatures regularly climb to the mid-80s. With these hot temperatures _ matched by blue, sunny skies _ summer is the best time to book a Georgetown vacation rental, especially if you're hoping to spend much of your trip outdoors. During the winter _ November through early March _ temperatures dip into the 20s.
