Charming Waterfront Escape with beach and pier for fishing and crabbing

This was a terrific and beautiful home and our family loved it!

Excellent choice for my family based on the information provided. All amenities were carefully thought-out and available. Very charming site, close to outside activities with enough inside spaces to accommodate the variety of persons we brought. Very clean and carefully organized. Definitely recommendable and memorable.

A quiet and private area with great views of the water and a large lot for plenty of yard games and fun. Plenty of activities provided by the host from games, to outdoor activities, and water sports. Susan was very helpful with the check in process and very easy to contact and get a hold of if needed. Perfect place for a low key get away and for some great star gazing on a clear night!

The house was well-stocked. Very peaceful and lovely location.

We absolutely loved this house and this trip. Susan is so welcoming and friendly, and her home is beautiful, in an stunning area, and offers so many activities. The kayaks were such a bonus! We had an easy drive to and from DC (less than two hours) and really loved the beautiful garden, playing lawn games, grilling, and soaking in the scenery. I can't recommend this home and Susan enough!

We stayed at this place for a family vacation over the 4th of July extended weekend. We were there for (4) nights. The outside property is absolutely the selling point. The Kayaks, the Bikes, the Hammocks, all got used with our small family. We loved the chickens and spent way too much time with them. The pier was a great place to spend sunsets and 4th of July at dusk was amazing out there. The only downside is the bugs, but once a nice breeze comes in off the water they tend to not be an issue. I would say the inside of the house leaves a bit to be desired, but the outdoor space more than made up for it. The beds are older and tough to sleep on, and the main room had (0) pieces of comfortable furniture. I also felt the AC (we were there in July so it was hot) was not working great, but we tend to like things colder than most so that may just be us. The community is extremely nice and the restaurant up the street was amazing food, and we got some crabs from a local fisherman that were amazing as well. Overall, it was a PERFECT spot for our family of (7) people spread out over (4) bedrooms. The house was a bit dated but still extremely gorgeous with uniqueness to catch your eye each time you walk through a room. The bathrooms were comfortable and the master bedroom was gorgeous ( I didn't get that one though). I think any quirks inside that may not make it feel worthwhile were immediately forgotten upon walking outside. 10/10 would consider this house again for our family vacations.

We had a fantastic time gathering 4 generations for a long weekend at Susan's beautiful spot on the water. Susan was very welcoming and helpful. The house is charming and comfortable for a large group. We appreciated all the details, both inside and outside. The kitchen is very well equipped. The whole family enjoyed the little beach and dock for playing in the water and kayaking and just taking in the unspoiled water views. The sunsets were spectacular. The little ones loved seeing the chickens wandering the property and even got to collect eggs in the morning. There are comfy spots on the porches and in the yard to relax and there's plenty of space for games, including outdoor pingpong! The flower beds were a delight, as was the abundant bird life. We didn't want to leave once we got there.

We had a great time! The house is lovely, well-maintained, and well-stocked. The location right on the St. Mary’s River is gorgeous. And with canoe, kayaks, and paddle boards right there, we were out on the water nearly every day. Susan is a great owner, who gave clear info on the house upon checkin and who was responsive throughout our time there. She also pointed us to a local waterman, who provided us delicious locally caught crabs for a memorable dinner we had out on the house’s pier. We had a terrific time!

Wonderful view, protected beach, comfortably cool house in middle of summer, friendly owner.

The property met all of our expectations and then some. The house was the best stocked home we ever stayed at. Great location with lots sports equipment available for our use. The property owner was so accommodating for all our needs and special requests. We would love to return.
