This condo is situated in the quiet town of Betterton and located just steps away from the largest and most beautiful beach on the Northern Chesapeake Bay. The condo has a large deck accessible from two nine foot sliding glass doors from both the family room and master bedroom. Enjoy true indoor/outdoor living with meals or drinks on the deck while watching the spectacular sunset over the water.

This nicely furnished and well appointed 2 bedroom 2 full bathroom condo has everything your dream vacation needs minus the hustle and bustle. Relax on the spacious deck and bbq while enjoying the water view looking North towards Turkey Point and Havre DeGrace. Enjoy a family day on the beach and feel free to use our beach chairs, rafts, and sand toys. Betterton is located just far enough North in the Bay to have a salinity low enough to keep the Jellyfish away. The beach has a lifeguard during the summer months.

Betterton is a quaint little town on the Chesapeake Bay located at the mouth of the Sassafrass River. It is the perfect destination for your family getaway where you can relax in tranquility far away from the crowds and traffic. Stroll down to the beach to catch the sunset or fish from the pier for the easy to catch giant blue cats and the occasional striper. You can even try crabbing from the dock (July 15th to November 1st). If you have a boat you may dock on the town pier for up to 72 hours or use the town boat launch. Boat trailers may be stored at Turners Creek Launch about 5 miles away. You will need a 3 day permit ($30) or a yearly permit that may be purchased at Mollys just up the road or ahead of time with a mail in form. https://www.kentcounty.com/recreation/paddling/launch-ramps

Families are welcome! We have a portable crib, booster seat and kiddie dishes. In town there are two parks each with a playground within walking distance for the kids. The park at the top of the hill has tennis and pickleball courts, basketball courts and a baseball field with public restrooms. There is an electric car charging station 2 blocks away.

Highly rated Marzellas, the local pizza shop delivers directly to the beach and has excellent pizza, cheese steaks, and subs with great tasting rolls and chopped steak imported all the way from Philly!

Historic Chestertown is only 20 minutes away through beautiful farm country. Enjoy shopping, walk along the Chester River boardwalk, coffee in the town square, or dine at one of its fine restaurants. On weekends there are free concerts and on Saturday morning there is a not to be missed farmers market.

Rock Hall is 30 minutes away and has a quaint main street with art vendors in the summertime, an ice cream shop, restaurants on the water and Crab Houses with a view. There are also fishing charters if you are looking to catch the big one.

Visit Hopkins Game Farm for a private hunt or for sporting clays. Lockbriar Farms has homemade ice cream, farm animals and old tractors for the kids to play on and a pumpkin patch in the fall. Crow Winery is just 15 minutes down the road. Visit the Sassafras Park for hiking and river views (5 miles away).

Historic Chesapeake City with shopping and restaurants is 30 minutes away with a nice drive crossing the drawbridge on the Sassafras river and the Bohemia River.

KITCHEN The kitchen is well-stocked with all of the items you will need to prepare your meals. There is a 12 cup coffee maker as well as a Keurig if you prefer. Sharp knives, non stick pans, big pasta pot and crab pot and electric tea kettle round out the kitchen. There is an electric grill on the deck (gas grills are not permitted). Plan to stock up on groceries and supplies before getting to town, the nearest full service groceries are 20 minutes away. You can find gas, and essentials at Molly's just 6 miles up the road.

MAIN BR The MBR has an ensuite bathroom and a sliding glass door to the deck with a water view. There is a queen bed and a roll-top desk if working remotely is part of the plan. The TV is 47 inches and has a ROKU adapter as well as a 6ft HDMI cord.

There is a folding double mattress that may be used for extra sleeping space if needed. Sheets and mattress are stored in the closet alongside the portable crib. The TV is a ROKU.

FAMILY ROOM The family room overlooks the 9ft slider and the water view. It has a couch and a love seat with a 50 ROKU TV that will allow you to access your streaming services. It is attached to a 6ft HDMI cord. So if you can watch it on your laptop you can watch it on the big screen. Of course there is high speed internet with excellent connectivity in the whole condo including the deck. There are puzzles and games for family game nights.

    The condo is everything we expected, clean, quiet, spacious, and comfortable. The beach and fishing pier are nice as well. The best part is the owner, Steven is prompt, accommodating, and kind. My son and I had a great time over the Labor Day weekend, we would recommend this condo wholeheartedly.

    What a wonderful place for a relaxing and beautiful low key getaway with friends! The condo is well stocked, super clean, has a community pool and is just a short walk to the water. We spent 4 nights here and would love to come back! Highly recommend!! Betterton is a sweet retreat for a quiet vacation- very safe. The sunsets there are gorgeous. We enjoyed the community pool (had it all to ourselves!) - the pool is located behind the other set of condos above the marina. We shopped and ate in cute Chestertown (20 min drive) and enjoyed a nice dinner out at the restaurant at Kitty Knight Inn in Galen/Georgetown (20 min drive). Accommodations at the condo were comfortable, communication with owners was easy and we were surprised at how well stocked the condo was. Truly a wonderful trip!

    Lovely stay at this Betterton Beach property. The convenience of having so many essentials at your finger tips helped make this a great stay. Providing towels, sheets, soap, paper products, spices, coffee and condiments along with beach gear is a great touch. The property has a lovely view of the bay. The location was convenient with easy access to the beach. Enjoyed staying at this comfortable home, found the decor intriguing. Owners were very responsive.

    The condo was nicely decorated and comfortable, Except for the bunkbeds. The bunkbeds are probably great for kids, but we had an adult sleeping in one of them and, Despite the wider width, The mattress was not comfortable for a heavier body. A massive amount of little bugs made sitting outside in the dark Difficult. Kitchen was very well equipped and bathrooms Were lovely. There is not much around Betterton Beach, except the beach, which is on the river. The compound had a pool, but it was not open during our stay, due to problems with the water quality. We did go to Annapolis one day, Rockhall, And Chestertown other days. But we did leave one day early as Two days on the beach seemed to be plenty And the pool was not open.
