About this property

Potomac River Woodland Cottage, Polite Pets welcome Central Air Stunning Sunset

  • Fully renovated with stunning sunset views over the Potomac River in the front and woodland views to the side and to the rear. A spotless single-level home less than 2 hours from D.C. Located across the street from the Potomac River time stands still at Tall Timbers; an almost forgotten Maryland treasure. Two of the three bedrooms are furnished as bedrooms. The third is used as a den with an ambiance fireplace, Smart TV and fold-out bed to supplement the living room sofa-bed. Windows line a project room on 3 side located off the kitchen. This comfortable workspace provides an additional dinning room table that doubles as a dedicated desk. There is also extra layout space on the oversized counter. Well-trained polite pets are welcomed with advance written approval provided you agree to pay for any extra cleaning or damage charges incurred in addition to the $25 per pet accommodation fee.

    This modern and year-round retreat is equipped with linens and any other items you might expect in a well-equipped home, including puzzles, a Keurig coffee maker, Smart TVs, Wi-Fi, and fast internet. We are uniquely located 3 miles east of the Piney Point/ St. George's Island Bridge not far from where the Potomac River flows into the Chesapeake Bay.

    There is an outdoor fire ring for wood fires, and the ambience of a faux fireplaces in the den and dining room. All windows are screened and open if you want to feel the breezes off the river and listen to the chorus of bird songs.

    An easement runs along the side of our home to the water's edge however the slippery bulkhead stones make entry difficult. The best launch spot is at the marina ($5.00 launch fee) and where our blue plastic Pelican Kayaks are found in the rack; or one of the many creeks or parks. Fishing and Crabbing for our famous Maryland Blue Crabs is a popular activity in our local Herring Creek. The village of Tall Timbers and the Marina are both easy walks. Picking up boxed lunches or great steaks at Wm Dents Grocery is a tradition. You will find a local watering hole and cafe in the back of the grocery. The famous Reluctant Navigator is at the Marina.
    The Historic St Mary’s City (HSMC) interpretive park, beaches, docks, lighthouse, and bridge at Piney Point and St. George's Island are all a short drive. We are happy to assist you in booking fishing charters or cruising the Potomac with a qualified waterman.
