Beachfront Estate on the Chesapeake Bay, Private Beach & 30-Mile View

Everything was great! The kitchen was well equipped and the second refrigerator was an added bonus. While the weather was chilly we still enjoyed practicing soccer and walking/hanging out by the water-the sun helped us to socialize by the beach. The “sun rise show” was fantastic and hike in the area was short and sweet due to grandkids getting older, being teared away from electronics and ping pong!

We spent a delightful long weekend at Tom's shorefront house. We cooked all our meals for 12 and found the kitchen more than adequately outfitted. Thanks to Tom's extensive information packet we made use of the local seafood suppliers. He always responded to any inquiry promptly, even on a weekend.Everyone (all 12) found the sleeping and bath accommodations clean, well-supplied and comfortable. The multi-space layout and the grounds were perfect for everything from alone time in the hammock by the bay to dining family style at the long tables- inside and out. It was October but some still enjoyed the kayaks and bikes. Everything in the long list was provided. If you need something he has probably provided it. Multiple car parking required a little bit of creative planning. The wood burning fire places (by the Bay and in the living room) allowed for nice endings to the days. Catch a spectacular sunrise over the bay with flights of pelicans and cormorants. The only negative comment is about the water. Small water & well systems are mainly unfortunate. Tom gave an honest description. The garage apt water is not on the main system and we found it unpleasant. The house water is acceptable but use the bottled water for drinking. People filter their home water, so this is really not a negative comment, just a note. We would definitely return to Tom's place. He has obviously invested time and thought in providing a bayside retreat that feels private and comfortable.

What an absolutely wonderful vacation experience! The house and property are top-notch—from the many pine trees to the private beach to the well-equipped kitchen and comfortable bedrooms. Everyone in our group said that this was the best vacation place we’ve ever stayed at—“it checks all the boxes.” Tom is a great host and great communicator—all instructions were clear and thorough. We hope to come back!

I had a wonderful, relaxing stay in Reedsville. The host, Tom, made sure I had all the information I needed in advance. It is a lovely property with beautiful sunrises and a great small private beach. My pup and I enjoyed it thoroughly!As Tom forewarned, the cell service is spotty, but for me, this only added to my ability to get away and unplug. The only thing I wish I had packed was bug spray!

I hate to review this place because I don't want it to get so popular that we have trouble booking it again. We went with our children and grandchildren. The house and grounds are lovely. There is plenty of space for a large group with different interests. We brought our own pack and play for our little ones.The beach and bay were perfect for our little ones. The water is warm, not deep and had gentle waves. If you are looking for water parks and putt-putt, this is not for you. The community of Reedville is cute with ice cream shops, markets and restaurants (open Thur-Mon). It is not touristy which is wonderful.Our host, Thomas was terrific and easy to work with.

Everything was wonderful.

Took the family and two small grandchildren (6 mo. and 2.5 yrs.) and had a great time. Plenty of room for all 7. It's a well maintained amazing property right on the bay with loads of deck space attached to house, a bay view deck, and a group of Adirondack chairs to relax in. Being in Reedville is pretty remote (which we wanted), though house and kitchen well equipped.

The accommodations were great, the view from the house was amazing, but the greatest part was the private beach!!!!!. Beds were very comfortable, well appointed, large beach house to accommodate a large family and very clean!!!

We enjoyed every aspect of our week. From the spacious and beautiful home, the private beach, the lawn games, the wildlife, and the slow pace. The home is stocked with everything you might need to cook with (although I'm not a fan of the cook-top stoves that glow under the glass) and 2 refrigerators. The water was clean, refreshing, and kept us entertained. We didn't encounter any jellyfish, seaweed, or odors from the fish processing plant. We would recommend it to anyone with a large group. Tom, the owner, was easy to contact and communicated with us the entire time from reservation to checkout time.

Comments from the family “Loved the individual spaces for privacy” “Thoroughly enjoyed the toys (bikes, corn hull, rafts, kayaks, game room etc)” Lots of yard space to “hang out”. “Great view” “Great birding spot”. “A real boost for us was we could bring the dog” All in all we had a most satisfying vacation.

Our multigenerational family stayed at this property for almost a week and everyone agreed it was one of the best homes we’ve stayed in as a group. Everyone left feeling relaxed and refreshed. The actual home was well-equipped for a group, comfortable, and had plenty of room for everyone to either gather in the main areas, or to spread out for alone time. A lot of thought has been put into making sure that everything needed to live within a group in one home is there, from updated, ample and comfortable furniture, to plenty of kitchen/diningware, to games and activities for those who want it, to an extra fridge because feeding a large group requires a lot of food! The outdoor spaces and the setting is the real draw, though… so many comfortable and peaceful seating areas throughout the property, the shade of the trees, the beach… it was perfect. We most enjoyed kayaking and floating around in the water (which is pretty calm and shallow most of the time), lounging on the deck overlooking the bay, sunning on the back patio, and watching the kids run around playing hide and seek and catching fireflies among the trees. Communication with the owner when necessary was easy, and he was responsive to any questions we had. We didn’t do much traveling in the area (we really just wanted to hang out together at the house), but grocery stores are 20-30 minutes away, and there are good restaurants within the same distance. We’d definitely return!
