Arlington, Virginia (September 4, 2008) - Viscape.com, a Web 2.0 social marketplace for vacation home owners, prospective renters and travel lovers, chose Dewey Beach as its first feature destination. Now, after only two months, Viscape is one of the largest property listers for the popular Delaware destination, having more vacation home listings than sites such as VRBO, Hutz, and even Homeaway.

"We are very excited about reaching this milestone so quickly," said Caroline Allison, president and co-founder of Viscape. Asked why she chose the Delaware shoreline as her company's first flagship destination, she answered: "Viscape is based in Washington, DC, and Delaware is the Washington area's favorite beach getaway. It was a natural choice."
