Welcome to your dream waterfront escape in Chance, MD! Experience pure bayfront bliss at this beautiful retreat, nestled directly on the wide-open waters of Tangier Sound. Step outside to find your own private pier, where you can spend your mornings casting lines or pulling up fresh Chesapeake blue crabs right from the dock. As evening falls, your spacious deck awaits for the most stunning sunsets the Eastern Shore has to offer.

A Year-Round Sanctuary: This cottage is a wonderful placeto stay, unwind, and relax even in the fall and winter months. When it becomes too cold to comfortably spend the day outdoors, the bright indoor spaces offer a peaceful front-row seat to crisp winter air and quiet coastal beauty over the bay. It is the ultimate cozy retreat to completely unplug and recharge at your own pace.

Custom Climate Comfort & Entertainment:

* 3-Zone Heating & A/C: The cottage features a modern, ultra-quiet mini-split system with 3 individual units (located in the bedroom, living room, and sunroom). Temperatures can be adjusted independently in each room so every guest stays perfectly comfortable.

* Entertainment: Stream your favorite movies and shows on the Smart TV after a day on the water.

* Free Wi-Fi: High-speed internet is included throughout the property so you can work remotely, browse, or share your sunset photos instantly.

* Capacity: This comfortable cottage safely and comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests.

* Primary Bedroom: Features 1 comfortable Queen-size bed with fresh linens and storage space.

* Living Room: Relax by the water views on a premium Queen-size pull-out sofa.

* Sunroom: A bright, window-filled oasis equipped with a second Queen-size pull-out sofa—the perfect spot to drink hot coffee and watch the sunrise over the Sound.

* Outdoor Comfort: Plenty of comfortable chairs for outdoor seating are provided so you can lounge comfortably on the deck or by the water when weather permits.

Arrival & Outdoor Living:

* Spacious Waterfront Deck: Overlooking the bay, this massive deck features a classic picnic table for family meals and a bar-height table with stools for sipping drinks at sunset.

* Cottage Side Yard: The other side of the cottage offers a second outdoor retreat, complete with an additional picnic table and umbrellas for cooling off in the summer shade.

* Private Pier: Yours to enjoy exclusively. Walk right out back to crab and fish off the pier whenever you like.

The Neighborhood:

Nestled in the quiet, scenic crabbing community of Chance, you are surrounded by the natural beauty of Somerset County:

* Boating & Water Access: Located just minutes from the public boat ramps and marinas of Deal Island, making it easy to launch your vessel onto the Chesapeake Bay, so bring your boat, kayak, and/or canoe.

* Outdoor Recreation: Explore nearby Deal Island Beach, local wildlife management areas, and abundant waterfowl birdwatching grounds—which are especially spectacular during late fall and winter migrations.

Be sure to bring your food and drinks as there is currently no stores on the island. You are about a 15 minute drive to Princess Anne, where you will find a grocery store, liquor store, and convenience stores.

The property is sprayed weekly, during the spring/summer, by the county for flies/mosquitos/gnats.

    Wonderful spot, amazing soothing view. Exactly like pictures, very cozy. We loved gazing at the Sound doing nothing, looking the light changes and lunching on the deck. There were lots of scoters and so many gannets diving far away; it was peaceful and incredibly quiet (we were there late March-maybe it's not the case in summer :)The night sky is incredibly good for star gazing as there is little light pollution. Debbie is very helpful and accommodating and replied very fast when we had a storm warning. Deal Island is a bit removed from hustle and bustle and some of less pretty aspects of the Peninsula; we had brought all our food and it's a good place to just chill. We did some good birding walking on the impoundments of the Deal Island Wildlife management area, it is a very eerie marsh landscape. An excellent getaway place!

    We didn't want to leave. That about says it all. The cottage was exactly as described in the listing. There are lots of windows to let in the light and the breeze. The bedroom is large with several places to put your suitcases, and there are hooks on the back of the door. The bed is very comfy. The two livings areas have plenty of supportive seating and lots of pillows. The kitchen is on the smaller size with not much counter space but is very well-stocked for cooking. The bathroom is good-sized and the shower is awesome. Good hot water and pressure. But the decks! As you can see from the photo, the back deck is right on the water. The host has provided lawn chairs to bring out. We spent all day on the back deck. When it was too windy (one day) we moved to the front deck which blocked some of the wind. The cottage is fairly isolated (nice neighbors, though), but it's an easy drive to several nice restaurants. Check out Sisters with a Twist in Princess Anne for great breakfast sandwiches. Pick up a couple of hoagies there and take a picnic to Bordeleau Winery in Eden. Wonderful wine! Debbie is a super host. Any question is answered immediately, and the binder she provides has lots of info on the cottage and the area. I'd give a rating of 12 out of 10 if I could.

    The cottage is very comfortable and decorated in cute ocean theme. The deck is amazing for relaxing and enjoying morning coffee and evening sunsets. The neighborhood is very quiet and the neighbors are incredibly friendly helpful people.

    The location is very remote from any businesses, you need to travel 30 minutes away for businesses, but perfect if you want peace and quiet for relaxing. Beautiful Bay side cottage, perfect for fishing and crabing. Beautiful sunsets.

    What a cute place on the water! Brand new floors and lots of sitting areas inside and out! Just a few steps from the deck to the pier! Unbelievably convenient! After my husband discovered the living room recliner was “power”, I never got to sit in it again! Our manual recliner at home is dead to him now!! Wonderful views and sweet neighbors who used to live not too far from our home! Small world!!

    This is a lovely cottage with a great view. You can’t get much closer to the water. We enjoyed the quiet and the beauty of nature. It is secluded as it’s about 20 minutes from any shopping or eateries. One note, the pictures are accurate however the two steps between the lower level (kitchen, bedroom, bathroom) and the living area are steep if you have any mobility issues.

    The cottage was just as described, but we were not expecting the beauty and calm of the bay. The eagles, ospreys and fish jumping were highlights. We thought we would explore the area but could not leave the view

    The property was just as listed. We traveled up and down the East shore and enjoyed relaxing at the cottage watching the bay in the evening. Didn’t bring fishing gear and now I regret it. The dock was so inviting. If I ever get a chance to return, this will be my first choice- Dennis

    We had such a wonderful stay. The location was perfect and the weather cooperated. Each day was special. The host was thoughtful, all our needs were anticipated. The view across Tangier Sound was spectacular, especially at sunset. We saw so much wildlife including butterflies, osprey, cormorants and sea eagles. The cottage was everything we dreamed of.
