Golf nearby: Baywood Greens, an 18-hole course open to the public, is on Long Neck a short drive away. It is not part of Stonewater Creek.

Stonewater Creek has a Millsboro mailing address, but it sits on Long Neck, closer to Rehoboth Bay than to downtown Millsboro, and outside the Town of Millsboro limits.
County services: the community is in unincorporated Sussex County, so there is no town tax and no town services. The county, the association and private companies provide what a town would.
Two directions: Route 24 runs east toward Rehoboth Beach and Route 1, and west to Millsboro and Route 113, so the beach towns and Millsboro are both within reach.
Two school districts: the Long Neck area is split between the Cape Henlopen and Indian River school districts, so the district depends on the address.
We will confirm the utilities, the tax figures and the school district for any home you are considering before you commit.

Read this first: Active Adults Realty is not a tax, legal or financial advisor and nothing below is advice. Confirm every figure with your own tax professional and with Sussex County before you rely on it.
The state picture: Delaware has no state sales tax, no estate tax and no inheritance tax, and Social Security is not taxed.
The local picture: Stonewater Creek is outside the Town of Millsboro limits, in unincorporated Sussex County, so the property tax bill is county and school tax with no town tax on top. The school tax depends on which district the home is in. Sussex County reassessed every property recently, so older tax figures on a listing may not reflect what you will pay.
