Cape Shores is the quintessential beach community, located between Cape Henlopen State Park and the Cape May-Lewes Ferry dock.  Homes in Cape Shores are either on the beach or just a short walk away, 8 Sandpiper is two houses away from the beach and sits directly across from the community tennis courts.  Well maintained wood plank walkways provide easy access to the beach between every other beachfront house.  Many Cape Shores residents live at the beach during the summer or permanently, but there is also a good amount of renters throughout the year.  Most houses in Cape Shores have 4-6 bedrooms making it an ideal family beach getaway community.

Amenities offered at Cape Shores include a private fishing pier, swimming pool with clubhouse, tennis courts and beautiful sandy beaches.  All of these community features are well-situated directly next to Cape Henlopen State Park, known for its paved circuit bike paths and walking trails in addition to its pristine beaches and sought-after beach campground.  Take a short walk or bike ride from our home into the park and skip the entry fee!

Cape Shores is approximately 1.5 miles to the historic district of the town of Lewes.  To get into town, take an easy scenic bike ride down the wide shoulders Cape Henlopen Drive, turn left on Savannah Road and head into town for a stop at our favorite ice cream spot, King’s Ice Cream or enjoy a margarita and some guacamole at Agave Mexican Restaurant, another one of our favorites!

Cape Shores offers a private fishing pier available to guests and owners only.
