*** NEWLY RENOVATED**** Escape to a Beautiful Getaway on the Chesapeake Bay

When we arrived we were very disturbed to find the dock pictured on the website was broken and 1/2 in the water and a permanent railing blocked the access with obviously no intent to repair. The inside of the house seemed to be clean but we recleaned as the toilets were actually stained, and we weren't sure about the dishes so we rewashed all of those. The house can use a deep cleaning with dirt and dust bunnies under all the furniture, i.e. couches and beds. There were tall weeds in the walkway, lots of old cobwebs and bugs all over the house and furniture. On Thursday we called the owner and it took him over 5 hours to respond (not knowing why we were calling). We rent a house with a dock for convenience, and although we did get a refund, the owner telling us there wasn't a dock anymore would have been helpful. We would have rented another house if we knew. The location was picturesque but the house itself needs a good cleaning and the dock needs to be repaired. The owner needs to respond to questions as well.

Beautiful view and beautiful house. Stocked with everything you could need. Great location to Northeast, Charlestown and Havre de Grace. Lots of bugs outside, but you're on the water and tis the season!

We do not recommend this property. We were not able to complete our stay as the property was not as the listing states. We were traveling with our children and pet. There were numerous safety concerns such as missing smoke detector and no water pressure so we could not shower, the master toilet that did not flush and multiple unusable features such as a sunken dock taped off with caution tape, an overall lack of cleanliness, stained furniture, dirty/inaccessible hot tub, weed-ridden firepit, bugs and wasps/bees making the outdoor space inaccessible. There were also a few things that aren't as guest-friendly such as beds you had to make yourself upon check in and you are requested to launder all of your towels and bedding prior to leaving. With a short stay and planned activities, the time to complete those requirements really can eat into the time you have to enjoy your stay.

Perfect location on the river. Nice house with open space and good natural light. Well stocked kitchen.

The location next to the water is wonderful with beautiful sunrises and the hot tub is very nice. The house has plenty of space with expected amenities. Not a fan of the thick memory foam mattress toppers but know some people like those. Neighborhood is quiet and peaceful and the house is just 10-15 minute drive from town and Havre de Grace. The house was very clean but furniture upholstery could use a good cleaning. All in all it was a nice place and we would stay there again. It would be super fun in warmer weather.

The Host Brian , Wonderful, excellent communication and the house was Perfect for girls reset and relaxation weekend.Waking up to view of the sunrises on the lake , breath taking.Definitely will book again and will highly recommend to friends.

This property looks amazing from the pictures however, the house needs some love. There are spiders and spiderwebs all over the inside of the house, mosquitoes coming out of the bathroom sink drains, and it needs a really good deep clean- as I scrubbed some walls and surfaces that were obviously dirty. It’s a shame because the location truly is amazing and we had a great time on the water. There is a smell of “gasoline” in the house, as other

Love this property; beautiful views everywhere. The Tiki Bar update was great! Layout of the house is just perfect. Fished off the dock every day and launched kayaks...a heavenly week!

An amazing time and great family memories it simply was a delight and was very relaxing. So many things around to do. Definitely would stay again.

Great location! We loved the view , water access , and hot tub. The Tiki bar is a nice touch. The house is very bright and cheerful, with lots of natural light. The kitchen is well laid out, and we enjoyed cooking meals there. It’s a great house! We look forward to possibly returning sometime.

While having a picture us view this house was the single dirtiest VRBO I have ever stayed in. Dust bugs and cobwebs everywhere. Broken amenities, fire hazards, crappy dirty furniture, and a listing that was not exactly accurate. The house is short, one bed that it advertises that we badly needed. The stairs to the water and the decking with expose nails are both dangerous and unsightly. The inside of the house looks as though it had not been dusted or vacuumed for months and months. The water is so hard and rusty that all of our hair and skin smelled like rusty water after getting out of the shower. The outside of the house outback is infested with wasps. The inside of the house has wasps water bugs, and other undesirable critters. The furniture is all dirty stained and smells bad. The steps in and out of the house are all a tripping hazard and would not pass code with the building inspector. The view is beautiful once again and the property location is beautiful however this homeowner needs to seriously work harder to manage his property. It could be fabulous with some Care.

Kitchen is well stocked. The view of the Bay is great. Caught maybe 15 catfish off the pier over the course of a weekend, plus a white perch, a snapping turtle, plenty of bird watching, and even watched a beaver swim by.I wish there would've been a hose outback to hose and brush off the outdoor furniture and tiki bar every morning. A hose and brush back there would help make it a little more enjoyable/usable. And maybe a couple bug zappers :) The water in the house is very hard and smells/tastes of metal, not sure this can be helped, and we got used to it. Even in the hot tub, it's almost green, even though it was very heavily chlorinated. We still enjoyed it and warmed up in it as it was a rare chilly, rainy June weekend.Brian was very easy to work with, allowed us to check in an hour early, and was very quick to respond to questions. It may be time to replace the Queen mattress in the 2nd bedroom, as my 70 yr old parents, rolled to the center and felt stuck there.All in all, the house served us well, and we enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Perfect spot for a relaxing weekend on the water, even if the kids are playing in a sports tournament.

Pictures on the website are accurate. View is beautiful. Living area was very spacious.We sat on the deck early in the morning and late in the evening.Hot tub was nice.Check-in process was easy. Once inside the house, we were very surprised to find unmade beds with sheets on top that we needed to make, which after a 7 hour trip was not something I wanted to do.We were surprised to find that there were very few towels, especially with a hot tub and we were staying 3 nights. There were NO washcloths to be found. The towels were discolored, mis-matched and had some large stains on them. We decided to wash all of the towels before we used them.Be aware they do not supply bath soap, shampoo, conditioner or a hair dryer (although they did not say they had them on the listing, but they also did not say they DIDN’T supply them). They also only had 2 hand soaps at the sinks (for a 3 bathroom listing).The main bathroom did not even have a waste basket.I do not think the floors in the house had been vacuumed at all as there were actual piles of dirt. I did mention this to the owner and he did advise he would follow-up with the cleaners.The house had an abundance of cleaning products in every closet.I had to totally clean the entire coffee pot before use.The kitchen cabinets were also not very clean. It would have been nice to have some local recommendations.Then the request to wash and dry the sheets prior to leaving is beyond ridiculous. I wouldn’t book again.

House was beautiful location was great but overall dirty and not well stocked. No hand soap in any bathrooms, only 4 bath towels when there were 8 of us sleeping there. One bedroom didn't have a smoke detector. One bathroom toilet was completely clogged and broken upon arrival and we couldn't use the entire stay. Mouse poop was found through out the kitchen.

The lake house was spacious and had a beautiful view. The owner had a lot of amenities in the house available, so there was no need to run out for any supplies. Will book again!

We throughly enjoyed our stay here! The house was absolutely spotless, check in was easy, and kitchen is well appointed. The views are beautiful too. Brian was super responsive and answered all of my questions. Can’t wait to go back!

Had fun
