Great cabin in a perfect setting on Chesapeake Bay! The cabin is well appointed (except for a wonky can opener :-/ ). We SO enjoyed local walks, kayaking, as well as sitting in comfortable Adirondack chairs for hours at the water's edge! Thank you!

2nd Stay & definitely not our last!

My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend last year and knew we had to bring our kids back this year. The location is amazing. The quiet and privacy can't be beat. We even took a quick trip into the city to check out the aquarium. The house is adorable and RIGHT on the water. You look out the living room window and feel as if you are on a boat! We enjoyed walking around the marina, checking out the boats, our boys spent hours digging on the beach, and we brought their bikes to ride as we walked up and down the quiet little road.It's the perfect place to go unplug and relax! We will be back.

It was a wonderful trip and it was nice seeing people get married houses down

It was definitely a trip to remember thank God for the AC and heat conditioner it really helped because of the water of course it's cold at night but it's understanding I do wanna say the sheets on the Queen bed and blanket was very itchy when laying down so I didn't sleep as good but my kids was fine so that was good maybe the detergent not sure but that was my only issue the blanket didn't smell as clean as it should so I use my blanket in the car which was good for the nights

Rainy weekend stay

Adorable, exceptionally clean waterfront home with loads of privacy. While the location felt more like a boat yard vs a marina, it wasn’t noisy nor did it detract from the peaceful setting.
